Capanna, Typical Tuscan Farmhouse With Fruit Garden

The farmhouse belongs to Tenuta Larnianone, a family run wine estate of 340 acres, that counts 8 different Villas and Apartments surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, at 5km from Siena. The Estate is completely immersed in the countryside (you need a car to get to the grocery!) but is only 13 minutes to the closest supermarket and about 20 to Siena's city center.
What to expect
Capanna is an independent, cozy and sunny farmhouse which can accommodate 4 adults and a child under 12 years old. The house is on two levels: on the ground floor there are the living room, the dining area and the kitchen; on the upper floor the bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Capanna has got a large private garden with an enchanting view on Siena, and is equipped for outdoor dining (table, chairs, umbrella and barbecue). You can admire both the Chianti mountains, the towers of Siena and the Val d'Orcia.
FAQ:
There is no air conditioning but fans in all the rooms.
Heating cost is included.
Renting a car is highly recommended (you can't go shopping on foot from the estate!)
In Siena there is no Uber service and taxis are not always available.
The swimming pool is guaranteed from 1st of May to 30th September; it's open from 8AM to 8PM
Only the guests of the Estate are allowed to enjoy the shared swimming pool spaces. Each unit has got its area, with sunbeds and sun umbrella. The pool IS NOT HEATED.
The organization of any event involves extra costs to be defined when booking with the property.
The kitchen is equipped with stove, oven, dishwasher, coffee machine (NESPRESSO), pots, salt / pepper and our extra virgin olive oil. We provide plastic bags, dishwasher tablets, laundry soaps and fabric softener to our guests, as well as some courtesy coffee pods.
The bathrooms have hairdryers and at the entrance we provide a small welcome kit with shower shampoo in paper sachets.

The Estate is located in a strategic position:

The best location to enjoy a true tuscan experience!

Great Location
Great location outside of Siena with a pool. Pool is a long walk from the house and is shared with other houses but doable. No air conditioning and only one window per room meant upstairs was warm. They had floor fans in each room, but it still got fairly warm in the evening. Washing machine and stove took some instructions to use as they are different than appliances in the US. Maybe include how to use them in the guidebook that was provided. Overall the hosts were very nice and accommodating. It is a stone road to get to the property.

Great for Family
The home was unique and in a beautiful setting. The views of the rolling hills and Siena were stunning- especially at sunset. There was a slight hiccup with the washing machine, but it was quickly rectified by the owners. They actually did our laundry until a new machine could be installed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this lovely property.

We had such a nice stay here. The host, Lavinia, could not have been more welcoming and healthy, and the activities and restaurants she recommended were perfect. The beauty of the countryside was the perfect. I’d definitely love to return.

Lovely Tuscan vineyard
We had a wonderful stay at this vineyard. Lavinia and her team welcomed us and made us feel at home. It was quite hot while we were there, but there were plenty of fans to keep us cool, and the pool was a god send! The vineyard is only 15 outside of Siena, so very convenient to reach all the Tuscan hill towns. We had a wonderful time!

Fabulous Villa and Owner
The villa was perfect with a view that we loved to wake up to each morning. Staying in a working vineyard was peaceful and stunning. It also had the best wine of anywhere we tasted during our week in Tuscany. Lavinia could not have been nicer or more helpful. Highly recommend the in-house chef as well.

Perfect in every way!
We absolutely loved our stay at Capanna!! Our host Lavinia is a true joy - she was so warm and welcoming. The villa was perfect - spacious, graciously appointed and the kitchen was outstanding. Large and comfortable enough for my DIL and I to cook several meals together - well appointed with all things needed to make lovely meals. By all means, book an olive oil and wine tasting - what fun! We got a tour of the vineyard and the pressing process then settled into the tasting on the patio. Absolutely delicious wine and olive oil - we brought lots to bring back because we must extend the beautiful flavor of Tenuta Larnianone as long as possible. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful Tuscan beauty
We stayed in the property for four nights. It was exactly what we thought it would be. The owners are so warm and make it feel as though you are staying with family. They are very nice people. Everything you need in a rental is there for you. The view towards Siena is so beautiful ~ we watched the sun set each night. We would recommend this lovely rental to anyone. Ciao Kim from Canada

A little slice of heaven!
We had a wonderful time during our stay at Tenuta Larnianone. We were there for two weeks at the end of August with our three children (all boys ages 4-11). It was definitely one of the most relaxing family holidays we have ever taken and we couldn’t recommend this place enough. We stayed in Capanna which was very clean, well-stocked with wine and olive oil, and just a short distance from the shared pool. The best part are the views from every part of the house and also the large garden space where our children enjoyed playing. It is an incredibly relaxing place where you will truly feel as if you are getting away from it all. The shop is easily accessible by car (15 mins) and also many great restaurants in and around Siena. We had an absolutely wonderful time and will definitely go again.

Great place to stay
Stayed in the Capanna villa for a week in August with 2 children aged 7 and 3. Property was amazing with loads of room for the kids to run around and play safely outside. Our flight was delayed so we didn't arrive til about 8pm and just wanted to get something to eat. The owner let us check in properly the next morning and suggested somewhere nice to go for a meal that evening. The pool is shared by about 3 other villas but most of the time you have it to yourself - the kids loved it. Siena is a 15 minute drive away but not as nice as I remember it from 13 years ago. Montepulciano and Volterra were nicer to visit. The kids really liked the day trip to pistoia zoo (1hr 20 min drive) which is small and manageable and with plenty of shade to keep the 37 degree heat off! The villa had everything we needed and has excellent views in every direction. Owners were great and really helpful any time we needed anything.

True Tuscan experience
I was so happy that we found La Capanna for our Tuscany vacation. We had not been to the Siena region and we’re always looking for something authentic. The house was very clean and the kitchen essentials were provided. Even large bath towels to use in the great size pool! The 3 bedrooms have their own bathroom which is excellent because we have 3 teenagers. The drive to the house is long and will make your car very dusty but that is part of the charm. We didn’t do the wine tour but I know it is possible to do so. We loved the olive oil that we were given to try and we bought 2 bottles. We slept with the window open every night! The house is in a perfect spot to explore Tuscany. We visited some towns in the area and took the train to Florence. Highly recommend this estate!

Our family’s week long stay in the Capanna at Tenuta Larnianone was nothing short of a beautiful dream sequence from a Tuscan movie...the whole experience was superlative - Tullio and Paola were especially helpful and wonderful people. We plan to come back as soon as possible!

Relaxing Villa near Siena in the Tuscan Wine Country
Tullio and Anna were excellent hosts. The villa we stayed in, Capanna, is set in a picturesque Tuscan landscape. The location is excellent for day trips to various towns in the surrounding area. The house itself is very comfortable for 2 or 3 couples. You should take advantage and plan a dinner prepared by a private chef. Trujillo was very gracious and gave us a tour of his vineyard and olive groves. Looking forward to visiting again when their new tasting room is complete. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home with gorgeous views and lovely hosts
We really enjoyed our stay in Capella at Tenuta Larnianone. It is such a beautiful, character-filled home nestled in the gorgeous Tuscan countryside. Our favourite thing to do was sit outside in the sun and relax in the peace and quiet with the amazing views. We also explored some of the surrounding towns with their rich history. Paola and Tullio were lovely, helpful hosts.

Perfect Tuscan Villa
We were a party of four and our expectations were exceeded! The villa was comfortable and in a great location, which made it easy to do day trips to different areas in Tuscany, and it was just minutes to the grocery store and center of Siena. The kitchen was accommodating, we had a chef prepare a four course dinner our first night, and she had no problems.. The owners, Tullio and Anna, were wonderful to work with and very helpful, giving suggestions for restaurants and places to visit. The view of Siena from the villa was outstanding, we never tired of taking in the view while enjoying a glass of wine during the sunsets. I hope to visit again!

An absolutely wonderful farmhouse, set in breathtakingly beautiful Tuscan countryside.
We had a fabulous two weeks in July-August, staying at La Capanna. Tulio and Paola were fantastic warm hosts and they made us feel so welcome! The house is lovely, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The views are stunning. In particular, the views over Siena are not to be missed! The pool is a short walk from the house or a 1 minute drive, which wasn't a problem at all for us. Tulio even gave us a tour of the vineyard which was really interesting. We couldn't recommend highly enough and will definitely be back! Thanks Tulio and Paola

Fantastic location to relax yet close enough to indulge on all that Tuscany had to offer
Our family rented the property for a week. The location for us was fantastic, quiet and relaxing. We did numerous day trips to surrounding towns and looked forward to a late afternoon dip in the pool to recharge. The home was well appointed and clean, we really didn’t need to bring anything other than groceries from a nearby store. Beyond the rolling hills was a wonderful view of Sienna, we enjoyed the 10 minuet drive to town for gelato and fantastic neighbourhood dining regularly. Tullio was never far off when we had any questions. We would certainly recommend to friend.

Amazing property with stunning views of the surrounding orchard and vineyards and skyline of Siena!
We spent 5 days here (2adult, 2 teens) and our best day was spent staying at the property all day, talking walks to the pool, playing games in the expansive front yard, cooking and dining outside, hanging the laundry out to dry (new to us), and watching the stars at night. We were busy exploring all the nearby towns all our other days ( San gimangano, Volterra, Siena, Florence). Great location for a home base in Tuscany. Fantastic wine and olive oil too. The owners even took us for a vineyard and orchard tour which we do enjoyed. Fantastic getaway. Thank You!
