Home Away From Home
We loved staying in this ancient apartment! We ended up spending 5 weeks living here. The master bedroom at the top was our favorite!! The kitchen was great, the downstairs shower had fantastic water pressure, the neighborhood was beautiful, the neighbors were quiet, we felt safe, and we really were impressed by the fabulous communication we had with the hosts before and during our stay. They were simply lovely.

Beautiful rural Tuscan stay
A very beautiful property and grounds, in the middle of the Tuscan countryside
The patio area with charcoal grill amongst the olive trees was a beautiful setting for snacks and meals
The house inside was very rustic and authentic but comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom s are well equipped
Our hosts were very friendly and the welcome bottle of wine and fresh fruit basket was a wonderful touch after a long day of travelling
The neighbours were lovely we spoke to several of them though a language barrier Google translate did the job

Tuscany paradise
Lovely spot. Nice and large with lots of room for a big family. You are in the country - so you’ll walk 500-1500 metres to a town to buy food. Car is a great idea. Views from the property are unparalleled.
No screens on windows so mosquito coils that were provided were helpful. A/c worked well in the two bedrooms they had it in.
Would definitely rent again!

Lots to explore from this beautiful medieval property.
A relaxing stay in this charming medieval property amid the beautiful chianti hills. An ideal getaway for family or friends. Great facilities, wonderful location. Lots of interesting places to visit nearby including vineyard tours and tasting and close enough to Siena and Florence for sightseeing, art and shopping. Spectacular views in every direction.

Enchanted April
This wonderful old house exceeded all expectations! Surrounded by beautiful vistas of olive trees, grapevines, and medieval Tuscany villages, everywhere you look could be the background of a Da Vinci painting. Great walks, amazing food (check out Casalta and di Buzzanca!), and easy access to Florence, cooking classes, wine tasting, art! And at the end of every amazing day, you come home to this house -- so well-equipped, so clean, so spacious and comfortable, and great wifi. Wisteria and sunshine!

Great property, local neighbors can be a little loud (walls seem thin). If I were to make one suggestion it would be label the inside trash cans, 5 different bins outside for different types of trash is a bit difficult to understand.

Staying in Wine Country
We intentionally picked a rental away from the high tourist areas. Our goal was to learn the Italian lifestyle. This rental was perfect. It is located within walking distance of 3 small towns but only a short driving distance from some larger towns which gave us access to food, dining, as well as train service. The interior was unique with rooms on multiple levels. It should be noted there are a lot of stairs. The view from our bedroom window was outstanding. During our stay we were able to watch the harvesting of both grapes and olives. On our walks we were able to visit with the families harvesting. They showed us their process and allowed us to take pictures. Our host Michele responded quickly all our requests. We all really enjoyed our stay.

Good stay
The house is nice classic, rather dark inside, which helps to keep the heat outside. Fortunately there were vents that helped also to keep mosquitoes away. The fourth bedroom is actually not really a room, but a space for a bed that you have to pass to get to the other rooms

Lovely views from Tuscan hilltop villa
My husband and his parents and I rented Michele and Elisabetta's place for one week in late September. Even though we arrived late in the evening, the owners waited for us and greeted us with a bottle of wine, a jar of pasta sauce and pasta, so that we would have dinner if we needed it.
The location was lovely - quiet and rural, and fantastic views from each room on the upper floors, yet it was easy to get to many of the Tuscan highlights. We visited Florence, Siena, Perugia, San Gimingnano and more - all easily accessible day trips..
It was plenty of room for us (it's a perfect space for two families with three or four children among them), and was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fairly well equipped (it did not have a cutting board so we bought one and left it there).
While the weather was warmer during the day than anticipated, the evening air did have a chill in it. We had wanted a property with a fireplace to relax in front of for the evenings we were "at home". However there was no firewood provided, though I believe the hosts would have provided it if we'd insisted on it.
Our security deposit was return as promised, in cash as we were "checking out".
We would definitely visit again, and would recommend Elisabetta and Michele's place to others.

La proximité de Florence est un atout ainsi que celle de Sienne. San Gimignano et Volterra ne sont pas loin . La maison est agréable , nous étions 7 chacun peut avoir son espace ce qui est bien appréciable après une journée de visites.

Maison médiévale au sein d’un havre de paix (hameau) de quelques habitants tous plus sympathiques les uns que les autres et située à une cinquantaine de mètres de la départementale voisine. Lieu stratégique privilégié pour visiter la Toscane entre Pise, Florence et Sienne. Je conseille vivement !

Urlaubsaufenthalt
Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und auch die Kommunikation lief hervorragend. Es wurde alles erklärt und wir haben uns gut zurecht gefunden.
Der einzige Kritikpunkt ist eigentlich nur, dass das vierte Schlafzimmer mit den zwei Einzelbetten nicht abgetrennt ist, sondern im Treppenhaus ist. Es ist zwar mit einem Vorhang etwas abgetrennt und mit einer Klima ausgestattet, aber halt kein eigener Raum.
Das Haus ist wirklich schön, vor allem das Panoramazimmer.
Wie zu erwarten ist es im August sehr heiss und da nicht alle Räume klimatisiert sind, sollte man sich überlegen, ob man das will.
Es war alles sehr sauber, wir haben Empfehlungen bekommen und hatten eine wunderbare Zeit! Wir können das Haus und die Gastgeber sehr empfehlen!
Viele Grüße

Heerlijk en prachtig huis!!
Allereerst was het contact met de eigenaren Michele en Elisabetta super! Zij communiceren snel via het berichtencentrum van VRBO, en evt. via WhatsApp, en helpen je als er iets onduidelijk is.
Het is huis prachtig. Klopt ook helemaal zoals op de foto's te zien is. Helaas alleen in 2 slaapkamers een airco, dus op de andere 2 slaapkamers was het zeer warm. Ook de woonkamer was erg warm, daar hebben we de mobiele airco steeds aangezet. Helaas hadden de onderburen last van de uitblaas van de airco, dus hebben we hem naar de keuken moeten verplaatsen.. Gelukkig staan er wel 3 waaiers in huis, die hebben we volop kunnen gebruiken.
De omgeving is schitterend. Je zit in een buitengebied, dus wel voor alles de auto nodig. Het rijden op alle bochtige en steile weggetjes is even wennen.
Er zijn binnen een straal van 15 minuten rijden genoeg plekjes om een hapje te eten. Michele tipte ons "Da Buzzanca". Dit was écht een aanrader! Twee keer heel lekker gegeten. Wel alleen op vr-za-zo open.
Wat dit vakantieadres compleet zou maken is een airco in de woonkamer en alle slaapkamers, en evt iets om af te kunnen koelen.
