Beautiful villa and the photos don’t do it justice. It’s spacious and the grounds are stunning with great views and plenty of places to enjoy quiet time.The hosts were lovely and helpful, we hired a chef on their recommendation which was fabulous. Supermarkets were a short drive and the restaurants that were suggested were great too.I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful property, location and outstanding outdoor space. Stocked well with great space for outdoor dining. Worked very well for a large group and the communication and service was wonderful. A few unfortunate items of concern. Mattresses were old and hard. Cleanliness was an issue, specifically one of the bathrooms and bedrooms was not cleaned at all or well. Could use a deep clean regularly. Property was stunning, if properly cleaned and with better bedding, would rate perfectly.

Dear Andrea, we are truly sorry to hear that you experienced an issue with the cleaning, and we wish you had informed us immediately. We would have acted without delay. Regarding the beds, they are not old, and as for the firmness, we understand that personal habits and preferences can vary. Thank you Maurizio & family

We absolutely loved our stay at the villa. It is clean and super spacious. The property is lovely and very well situated close to restaurants and grocery stores. The family that owns the villa was incredibly kind to the people in our group that were stuck there due to airline cancellations. Absolute gem of a property and wonderful people.

Family reunion in Tuscany

We had a great stay. The pool and gardens were lovely and it was very peaceful. Even in the very hot July weather it stayed cool and breezy as it is high up. Lots of nice villages and towns to visit 10-20mins drive away.

Everything was perfect except that there were no phone network and that the WIFI quality was poor. Additionally, the host was not that reachable. Parents’ host were great on the other side. All in all, it was a nice stay in a nice villa

Stevens family trip 2023

It was an amazing stay. The grounds were wonderful. Our grands loved the pool area and with so many areas to relax. The only downside was the kitchen was SO small. I guess Americans use our kitchen space more and no oven made it difficult to plan meals in. Overall was great.

A stunning property. You really come to appreciate the Tuscan country side and it’s beauty. I come to this region every year and this by far was the best property I stayed. Attention to detail, cleanliness and peace of mind. The owners are wonderful people.

Our Tuscany Vacation

This property is absolutely gorgeous and a perfect location to visit all the sites in Tuscany. The property manager was wonderful and even made reservations for us at a wonderful local restaurant the evening we arrived. She helped us find a local guide for Florence and someone to give us a cooking lesson. The owners live on the property but we rarely saw them. Amazing place and great location. I highly recommend it.

Italian Besties

Our group of 5 women celebrating a number of life milestones had a wonderful week. Check in was easy and the villa was amazing. Our only issue through the entire week was that the battery in the gate fob died and we were momentarily trapped inside with a pending golf tee time! The owner quickly realized our issue and gave us his fob and we were on our way within a few moments. Everything was wonderful and as expected!

Wonderful family stay in sunny Tuscany

We have enjoyed our stay tremendously. The house is situated on a high hill, therefore quite cool at night. The owners and caretakers are wonderful. The interior and exterior is done in a traditional and elegant style. All rooms were very clean. The are mosquito screens on all windows. Also shutters. Airconditioning available but even in mid August hardly necessary. Pool is large, clean and very nice. several wonderful and cosy seating area's . We enjoyed the nearby towns of San Gimignano, Volterra and of course the Paleo in Sienna. We would love to come again. What we missed? Hardly anything. The kitchens could use a true oven. But with all the wonderful nearby restaurants, that is hardly and issue.

Family stay in summer

We were two families with 6 children ranging in age from 5 - 16. We used both apartments, and there was plenty of space for all. The position was good, although like most places in Tuscany it does require you to drive everywhere. The Villa grounds were the highlight for us. The pool and gardens were beautiful, and there were so many outside areas to relax. Plenty of room to spread out if needed! The apartments are charming inside. The kitchens are fairly basic, but fine. The cutlery and glassware is a little lacking, and updating this would improve the experience. We had a chef come and cook a dinner for us one night, which was absolutely fantastic. Overall, we absolutely loved our stay here and wish we were back there now! Some printed materials on the surrounding area would have been appreciated -with details of supermarkets, restaurants, wineries, banks and any other local tips. Thank you to our English speaking host Cheti who managed all the communications.

Absolutely perfect!

We had an amazing time at this villa. Gorgeous setting with an amazing pool. Plenty of space to spend afternoons outside . The house has two stories , one upstairs with 2 full bedrooms and a loft with 2 small beds . A full kitchen and 2 full bathrooms . An amazing terrace with a large table to have meals outside. Downstairs is the other part of the house with 3 full bedrooms and bathrooms as well . This one has a bigger kitchen and also an amazing outdoor seating space overlooking the backyard. The house is in a very private area but a 10 minute drive from the closest town where you can find a supermarket . It’s necessary to have a car . We visited other towns during our stay . Pienza, Volterra, Siena , Florence and San Gimingnano. The family that owns the villa lives right next to this villa . They are very kind and willing to help you with any questions. If you don’t speak Italian , you can communicate with Cheti via what’s up . She was very helpful with everything we needed during our stay. We really love this place and will try to come back one day ! Note : the use of AC is per request . Extra charged if you need to use the AC all the time. They also offer to wash your clothes . (We used both ) Thank you for letting us stay and enjoy your gorgeous place! The lehnhoff family!
