Wonderful experience
Beautiful villa surrounded by lush gardens and vineyards. Air conditioned bedrooms and large pool were wonderful additions to a warm Tuscan summer. Domizio and Nella were most helpful. It was an ideal Tuscan vacation!

Villa in Tuscany
Villa was beautiful. Loved the pool and outdoor areas for dining. Most everything we needed was provided by the host. Easy train ride into Florence or other parts of Tuscany. If you are staying here, would highly suggest a car. Train station is not really walkable and taxi service can be unreliable.

Best birthday Celebration
Tuscany June 13-21, 2022 I celebrated my birthday at Villa La Falterona with all my family, My husband, 4 children ,wives and husband and my two year old grandson. This was one of the best family celebrations we’ve ever had. Domizzio help me with every detail during the time we spent in his beautiful Villa. La Falterona is more than the pictures and descriptions I read. Everyone had their own bedroom with air conditioning, and very comfortable king beds. The kitchen is fully equipped even for an expert cook. For my birthday we had a chef come to the house, Lucciano gave us a cooking class , that we all enjoyed and latter he prepared a wonderful dinner for us. Nella the housekeeper, helped setting a beautiful dinner table . The pool area is perfect, specially for the high temperatures we had, my grandson enjoyed so much after long days exploring. We did a lot of day trips around the Toscana, the train is only minutes away and connects you to any town just in minutes ( firenze 18 min.). Thank you Domizzio for helping us with our Life Celebration in a real Tuscan Villa. We all definitely will return. Ani and Marabunta Rodas

More Beautiful in Person
The property is AMAZING! It is a true family home and does not feel like a rental. Our group is already making plans to return. Here are the quick pros, cons and recommendations: Pros: - the property is awesome!!!!! - onsite caretaker is Nella. She is adorable but speaks no English - Homeowner (Domizio) is your contact and WhatsApp is his preferred method of contact. He is very helpful and provides you information and suggestions before you arrive. - Domizio makes delicious wine and olive oil from the property - 1 hour drive to Florence, Lucca, Siena, Chianti, etc. - convenient train ride to Rome and Venice - Lastra a Signa is a quaint town (although traffic is a problem) - Town has a major market (Coop) but definitely seek out the 2 butchers and Vini Bellini (unique wine shop). Cons: things to mention but NOT a problem - there is a rifle range very close to the property. We heard gunfire Friday and Sunday morning, and ALL day Saturday (just make plans to do a day trip on Saturday) - shower drains and kitchen sink get clogged (no garbage disposal). Remember the house is 300+ yrs old, but this is part of the charm - Mosquitoes are a problem based on time of year. Make sure you have spray and use the citronella plug-ins (provided) - be sure to bring a variety of electric adapters. Recommendations: - If you like to cook definitely eat in. We went to the market and butcher daily on our way home from our day trips. The kitchen is well equipped (needs a knife sharpener). - Buy Domizio's wine and olive oil. It is reasonably priced and he ships - Hire Chef Luciano for your last night. The dinner was fantastic, but you don't want to worry about cleaning the kitchen the next morning. Bottom line is this property is spectacular! This was our first time in Tuscany and couldn't be any happier with our decision to stay at Villa La Falterona.

Pictures do not do this villa justice, it was so incredibly amazing.
This estate was outstanding, the whole experience was relaxing, yet exhilarating. An easy train ride into Florence and tranquility when you return to the villa. The owner/manager was so very helpful and friendly he and his staff made us feel welcome in their home. Our group of 11 adults all agree, staying at this villas was one of the highlights of our time in Florence.

About the host

Host profile image
I am 55, I am from Florence, I spent first years of my life here, in the town that I love most. I have lived, for study or work, in NYC, London, Paris, Milan, San Peterburg. Now I am spending a lot of time in Central America for my actual job: Renewable Energy plants, particularly wind farms.
I speak fluently Italian, English, French and Spanish. I can speak also Russian and Portuguese.
I love travelling everywhere, for my work or just for fun, I have lived or visited more or less 80 countries all over the world, but nowhere I had the emotion of a sunset seen from Ponte Vecchio in Florence.
I love also reading, cinema, eating out (!) and cooking, sports, expecially biking, running and swimming.
I decide to rent my apartment in Florence and my family villa in the country mainly because I am travelling very often and I think that houses must be lived and not stay closed for long periods. These residences are very comfortable, ideal for people who want to make themselves at home. I have lots of nice places to suggest to my guests in Florence and the whole Tuscany.
