Architecturally stunning, historic country house in idyllic Chianti.

Not even sure where to start, from the moment we drove down the long driveway to this magnificent villa to the moment we left it was an amazing experience. The property is absolutely breathtaking in a beautiful Tuscany hillside landscape. The home was everything and more then we imagined. Great space, from the main church/living room, kitchen with great fireplace to the comfortable bedrooms. Centrally located a few kilometers from Greve Centro and many amazing town centers. Kate was an absolute pleasure to work with in planning this trip, and we were so happy to have met her during our stay!! Not a single complaint about our stay and we will be returning next year!!!

Our family had an incredible experience....the property was better than described! Tucked away in a hillside it had amazing views of the surrounding Tuscan countryside. The property had everything we could ask for, and more! The owner was not only delightful and engaging, but also very accommodating as a result of our delayed arrival. She still took the time upon our arrival to ensure our holiday would be a memorable one. Located about 3 km outside of Greve, the property was central to enjoy the region. I would highly recommend this property.

We had a wonderful vacation at the villa. It was an unique experience since it was a beautiful place with picturesque surroundings. Kate was extremely helpful and patient with us as I had this vacation planned a year before. Her villa was spotless and clean with all the amenities ( except air conditioning- which we missed since it was a very hot summer in Italy). Nonetheless it was great since all rooms were well equipped and comfortable. She was awesome with her suggestions for shopping and wine tours etc. and we thoroughly enjoyed all the ones we went on. She was kind enough to buy us some groceries so we had some food at the villa. We definitely made use of all the villa and dined outside with the beautiful scenery around us. Greve is close by and we loved the Saturday market there. A lovely place which made our vacation totally awesome. Thank you Kate!!!

Stunning property captures the equally stunning views of the Tuscan terrain.

Such an incredible experience, we have already booked another two week stay for June next year.

I am not sure what I can add that has not already been said in the previous reviews. The location, house, and setting are amazing, and Kate was there to answer my emails and questions months in advance of our arrival (she booked reservations for our anniversary dinner, and also for a dinner in Rome).

For my wife and I, this was our third trip to Italy, and by far the most relaxing. For three others in the group it was their first trip, and it was an incredible experience for them. There is so much to see and do in the local area, but to just sit and relax at Le Convertoie and enjoy the peaceful surroundings was well appreciated by everyone. There are also several hiking trails around the property, we explored a few and more are on the list for next year’s visit.

As others mentioned, Kate is a wealth of knowledge and helped us with information on where to eat, and what to see. Her and Francesco were accommodating to our group’s needs, whether it was a day trip to Florence, or the incredible day long wine tour arranged (take advantage of this if you can) they were patient, and able to accommodate individual needs in the group.

The neighbors are lovely, genuine people. Marco's wine and olive oil are great, we enjoyed many a good bottle of his wine from the cellar. We bought the last eight bottles of his 2009 Chianti Classico Riserva to enjoy in Canada. We are looking forward to his Grand Selection that will be available next year, and more of his cheese. Do not forget the cooking class with Gaia and her mom, great homemade Tuscan food that was enjoyed by all (and enough pasta left over for dinner the next day).

Greve is a great town, we enjoyed the bustling market on Saturday, coffee at the café, and bread from the bakery. There are a few local restaurants we did not get to, but they are on the list for next year.

Thanks Kate and Francesco for all your time and effort in helping us have an incredible vacation. Cheers, and we will ration Marco's wine to enjoy over the coming months until we return next year.
