About this villa rental
Imagine stepping into a historic residence from the 1600s, once the home of the Podestà. Crossing the threshold of Locanda del Podestà means taking a true journey back in time. Established in the 17th century as a prestigious manor on the historic Via Volterrana—a route used since Etruscan times to connect Fiesole to Volterra—this house tells centuries of history through its thick stone walls, original frescoes, and exposed beam ceilings.
Here, luxury is not about ostentation, but authenticity and space. Today, Locanda del Podestà offers a genuine experience where the charm of the past blends with the freedom of expansive areas. Immerse yourself in the 17th-century atmosphere and discover 150 sqm of space, perfect for hosting 12 guests in the heart of Chianti. Here, warm summer days transform into moments of pure relaxation thanks to the natural microclimate created by the historic walls, which keep the rooms cool and rejuvenating.
The house ensures maximum privacy with its double entrances and two kitchens. Furthermore, it boasts a spectacular panoramic terrace overlooking the Tuscan hills and 4 private parking spaces within the property.
But the beating heart of the Locanda is its private garden, an oasis of peace where the scent of rosemary mingles with the wood from the barbecue and the relaxation of a plunge pool. Under the Tuscan sky, among the hills of Montespertoli, you will create unforgettable memories with al fresco dinners and glasses of local wine at sunset.
Just 30 minutes from Florence, Locanda del Podestà is the ideal retreat for large groups seeking history, comfort, and breathtaking sunsets.

Such an amazing property! It was surreal to be in such an old structure with every modern amenity and the view from the top-story terrace is breathtaking and makes for magical cocktail hours. Montespertoli is a wonderful small town and the home is just steps from the town center with its bakery, produce store, butcher and a full-on grocery store with everything else you might need. There's a weekly town market on Tuesdays with the most amazing vendors...especially the fish monger. Everything is amazingly fresh. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this as a wonderful place to chill and use as a home base for exploring Tuscany. (For those with mobility limitations, be aware there are three flights of stairs from the parking area to the home and small level changes throughout.)

Bruno is wonderful and great at communicating. His home is architecturally amazing and the views are stunning. The spot in town is very convenient. The location in Tuscany is perfect for day trips to Siena, Florence, Lucca, etc. Bruno provides exceptional attention to detail. Montespertoli is a beautiful, authentic, and welcoming town with lovely people and great food!

This was a perfect location for our girls trip in Tuscany. Beautiful country views in a quiet setting. Very convient location to make day trips thru Tuscany but would definitely recommend you rent a car to do this. A parking spot wss provided so did not have to worry about finding and paying for a place to keep the rental car. The house was clean with lots of space and so nice to have so many bathrooms all with good water pressure. The kitchen had plenty of dishware and utensils and made life easy by having a dishwasher. Also, very helpful to have a wash machine and multiple drying racks. We were very happy to have a cafe and gelaterias within walking distance as well as a grocery store. The host was very responsive and easy to work with. One possible concern is if you had to be available for work, the WiFi was spotty especially at night. Overall, would highly recommend staying here!
