Tuscany hotels

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Villa which had superb views over Luca. Massimo, the owner, was lovely and spoke very good English explaining the places we should visit. He was very tolerant of us as we left things behind but rang us to let us know before we had gone too far! Thank you

This was a special event made even better by the beautiful house and Monica's great cooking and hosting. Stunning views and beautiful rooms. Monica welcomed us and made sure we had everything we needed, she couldn't have been nicer. We also arranged for her to cook a celebration meal one night which was exceptional, genuine local products, her own cheese and a real flavour of Tuscan cookery. I can't recommend this place and Monica enough.

Happy to recommend Simona's property. An excellent location as a base to visit the surrounding area and beyond...and just to walk out of the door and enjoy walks in the immediate locality. A very comfortable apartment to return to and spend time in... it's a great location in Aquilea. Supermarket close by... and a ' negozio alimentari' and bar in Aquilea ( unfortunately the owners went on holiday the day I arrived, so cannot comment further ). Simona is very helpful re local information and potential sightseeing.

Absolutely beautiful villa in every way. The property is equipped and maintained to the highest standard without exception. The outdoor cooking space made it perfect for evenings on the terrace with views over Buti and the surrounding area. The pool is amazing - we struggled to get the children (and grown ups) out of it! The location is perfect for access to so many ‘must see’ places. We visited Lucca, Pisa, Volterra, San Gimignano, Florence and Cinque Terre during our stay. Some of our family also took a trip to Rome by train from Pisa. Our stay was to celebrate a special occasion as a family and a local chef recommended by Marco came and cooked us a wonderful, authentic Italian meal. Marco is the most welcoming and gracious host and went above and beyond to make our stay absolutely perfect. Can’t recommend this beautiful villa highly enough!

A beautiful hillside view, top quality pool and lovely relaxed feeling. Would definitely recommend a d well positioned for Lucca and Barga.

Absolutely fantastic stay. Villa is superb and the air con was a life saver given the 96deg heat most days. Bedrooms spacious and very comfortable Pool and area around with stunning views a great place to relax

Wonderful time in very relaxed setting. Great that everyone had their own space. Loved the informality of the place. Celebrated sisters 70th in style. Owners very friendly and available but not intrusive. Good time had by all.

We stayed two weeks for our joint 70th birthdays, with old friends the first week and family the second week. The villa is ideally located for sight-seeing in Florence or roamimg about Tuscany. It has a lovely setting in a small valley south of the Pitti Palace, with a country view from the covered patio. The bedrooms are pleasant with comfortable beds and individual bathrooms. The kitchen and dining room were well equipped. Our housekeeper came in most days and was very pleasant and unobtrusive. We commented that Villa Fontanine was the perfect place to return after a day touring such a magnificent city and region in Italy.
