Lovely Home!
This was a beautiful home in an enchanting medieval town! It was a good location to explore Florence, Siena and the surrounding areas. The view over the valley was wonderful!

Ideal location and host
This is my second stay at this beautiful home in Barberino. If you are considering a trip to this region this is the ideal place to locate yourself. You are in a small town and yet so close to so much. Florence and Siena both in 35 minutes in either direction. The town also has two great restaurants in walking distance. As if that were not good enough, you have a host that is very responsive and treats you like family. I would highly recommend this property and everything about it.

Best location, host and property!
I stayed here for 10 days and so my review is based on more than a weekend at this house. My host (Benedetta) was terrific. We corresponded before the rental and she was very helpful by giving me answers to all of my questions of course. But, then she went above and beyond by sending me additional information on local activities. I was traveling on my own but, the house has plenty of room for 4. The condition was spotless. The bathroom is spacious and the shower in the tub has great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The views from the house are even nicer than they look in the pictures. The town is small but, a few very good restaurants and a few (Italian) bars, one on each side of town. COOP supermarket in walking distance too. Florence 40 minutes, Siena, 30. And, so much to do in between, 10 days just wasn't enough. I am not back home yet but, I am already trying to figure out when I can come back to Benedetta's house next year!

Wonderful location in Tuscany
This apartment provides a wonderful step back in time. Comfortable, roomy with all the amenities you need. Barber is a Val d’Elsa is centrally located in the Chianti area and we were able to visit many of the historic villages, wine taste, and had easy access to Siena and Florence. The owners we bery helpful with suggestions and we took a cooking class from Benedetta and her mother. For an authentic Tuscan experience, I highly recommend this apartment.

Amazing Location, Beautiful Property, Accommodating Host! Perfetto!!
The "sum" of all of this rentals "parts" was WONDERFUL!! I was especially grateful for the hostess' understanding as I experienced difficulty pulling up emails which has the correct address and instructions. She went out of her way to ensure I checked in and had an excellent stay. I do recommend one bring the essentials (shower gel, shampoo, conditioner) as it is not a hotel. Also note, the dryer is "line dry" which was not an issue for us since we had lovely weather. I also highly recommend any restaurant in the immediate area. The three I tried (and another was about to open also offering amazing views, Pico!) were absolutely delicious and fairly well priced! Wonderful to find so many good places to dine within a two minute stroll!! I can't recommend highly enough this property!! You will enjoy it and Tuscany!!

Beuatiful little town in the contryside.
We loved our stay here. The rental was perfect. There was more than enough room. We do wish there was parking at the rental but there was parking a short distance from the rental. It was quiet and clean in Barbarino. The restaurants near the rental were incredible. We loved them. Cafe Bijou, Ristorante Triocco & Osteria il Campanello were just a short walk from the rental. They all had amazing food. The prices were good too. We loved having Barbarino as a base to see Tuscany. There were so many places to see all around there. Get out of the cities and just take in all the valley has to show you. It was great.

Perfect Tuscan Retreat
This villa is perfect! Very clean, plenty of living space, and the views are spectacular if you enjoy seeing the gorgeous Tuscan countryside. The location is quite convenient with restaurants, shops, markets, and parks just steps away. Our host (Benedetta) was super sweet and extremely helpful and accommodating. She maintained good communication with us throughout our stay whenever we needed assistance.

Fantastic experience
Absolutely loved staying here. Plenty of space for 4 adults, able to cook meals if we wanted. Incredible views. Loved the experience of staying in a castle. Restaurant next door one of the best we had in italy. Enjoyed wine bar with a very short walking distance. Bernadette was a great host and gave us suggestions for some locals only sites. Great location for exploring Tuscany
