Property Summary
Nestled within the medieval hamlet of Palazzavelli, just one kilometre from the centre of Sovicille in Tuscany, Italy, La Capanna di Franca is a beautifully restored stone farmhouse that offers an exceptional vacation rental experience for those seeking authentic rural charm combined with modern comfort. Originally an old barn, this characterful country house was meticulously transformed in 2006 through careful restoration work that preserved and celebrated its original architectural style, resulting in a warm and inviting retreat that harmoniously blends rustic heritage with contemporary living. Set in an independent position within a lush garden of approximately 5,000 square metres, the property enjoys breathtaking views from the first floor windows over the surrounding Tuscan countryside, with the city of Siena visible in the distance.

The grounds of La Capanna di Franca are a true celebration of the Tuscan landscape, extending across approximately 5,000 square metres of predominantly lawn-covered parkland.

The property has been thoughtfully equipped to ensure a comfortable and convenient stay for all guests. Air conditioning is installed throughout all rooms, guaranteeing a pleasant indoor climate regardless of the season, while heating is also available for cooler periods. The laundry facilities in both residential units include a washing machine, allowing guests to manage their clothing needs with ease during extended stays. In the kitchen areas, a dishwasher is provided, streamlining the cleanup process after meals and allowing more time to enjoy the surroundings.

The estate also welcomes pets, making it an ideal choice for guests who prefer not to leave their animal companions behind. Wireless Internet connection is included throughout the property, ensuring guests remain connected at all times. The weekly rental price also covers a comprehensive range of services, including utilities such as water and gas for kitchen use, weekly linen, initial and final cleaning for stays of a minimum of 7 nights, and a midweek internal reorganization service every Wednesday that includes bathroom cleaning, tidying of bedrooms and kitchen, and a change of bath towels. Park and pool maintenance is also included. Additionally, the property operates under the Zer0Dep Guarantee, meaning guests are not required to pay a security deposit either on balance or upon arrival, and benefit from EuropAssistance coverage in the event of accidental damage caused to the property during their stay, up to a ceiling of 1,500.00 euros and subject to the applicable restrictions. The property has undergone a check-up carried out by a technical manager to guarantee the correspondence of the description, the accessories listed, and their state of operation and maintenance.
Other Information
The estate is secured by an automatic access gate, ensuring privacy and peace of mind throughout your stay. A home automation system is integrated into the property, adding a layer of modern convenience to the historic setting. Starting from 2026, the first floor of the villa, accessible via an independent entrance, will be occupied by the owners, a young couple who are generally absent for work reasons but remain available should any need arise. Guests will share only the driveway and parking area with the owners, while the park and pool remain for the exclusive use of guests at all times. It is worth noting that the photo shoots of the property are typically carried out in spring, and therefore the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and park may appear different upon arrival depending on the season. Pets are welcome at the property, with an additional mandatory cleaning fee applicable per animal per day of stay. Children under 12 years of age are exempt from the tourism tax. The minimum stay required to benefit from the full range of included services, including the midweek reorganization, is 7 nights.
Distances and Attractions
The property enjoys an exceptionally privileged location, positioned just 3 kilometers from the historic center of Siena, one of Italy's most celebrated medieval cities, placing its art, architecture, cuisine, and cultural heritage within effortless reach. The surrounding Tuscan countryside opens up to some of the region's most iconic and scenic destinations, all accessible within a comfortable drive. The Val d'Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of rolling hills and cypress-lined roads, lies to the south, while the Val di Chiana and the distinctive lunar terrain of the Crete Senesi extend across the broader territory. The celebrated wine country of Chianti stretches to the north, offering world-renowned vineyards and charming villages. The historic towns of Montalcino, famous for its Brunello wine, and Pienza, a Renaissance gem, are both within easy reach, as are the medieval towers of San Gimignano and the thermal baths and noble architecture of Montepulciano. The estate's panoramic position also affords direct views of Monte Amiata, Tuscany's ancient volcanic mountain, adding a dramatic natural backdrop to the already stunning scenery.
