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 PK

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 Home
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.

Amazing historic place to stay. A taste of the medieval.
It was wonderful and spacious with beautiful views. My only complaint would be the water pressure in the shower.

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
