It also has over 100 olive trees (some of which are hundreds of years old) that produce about 250 litres of extra virgin olive oil. The property has two buildings, one large one that accommodates up to 12 guests (6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) and an independent restructured barn (adjacent to the pool) that accommodates up to 4 guests (2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms).

The kitchen in the main home is very spacious and perfect for hosting large groups. Villa Peccioli boasts a delightful swimming pool set among olive trees, a vegetable garden, a fruit orchard and a sitting area with unparalleled views of the vineyard and kilometres of rolling Tuscan hillsides. The barn's second floor offers and outdoor eating area with one long wooden table that can accommodate 20 people, a gas barbecue and views of Volterra.
