San Carlo is and amazing property and it’s location is stunning, very well equipped and with excellent faxilities. The local restaurant (600 meters away) was amazing as was the cafe and ice cream outlets in the local village. Great pizza too. Fantastic pool and surrounding areas. Perfect for our family of 6. Littitia was amazing, so helpful and professional.

A rustic villa, a bit rough round the edges and in need of TLC. The location was good, a lovely restaurant within walking distance. Very peaceful and lovey views from the pool area.

We spent a fantastic 2 weeks at San Carlo and had some very hot weather so really enjoyed the pool area in particular. The house is a great base for Florence, Pisa and many of the historic hilltop towns of Tuscany and the scenery is spectacular.

This property was perfect for our family. Forty minutes from Florence. One of the most spectacular views and, on the day we were just too tired to do anything, a great pool by which to hang out. The rustic farmhouse was very cozy with plenty of room for our group ( we had 6 but it could accommodate more) plenty of bathrooms and very beautiful grounds. The host was extremely helpful, and assisted us when we needed help.

It was unfortunate that we came during a cold week in April because the central heat was turned off. The only heat was in the bedrooms upstairs with individual heaters. It was uncomfortably cold in the villa. We spent our days touring the countryside in our warm vehicle.
I might enjoy a return trip in a warmer month.

We spent a short break at the villa with our family. The house is very spacious and full of character and is perfect for a family gathering or a group of friends. Our host was friendly and very helpful. We unfortunately, due to the weather, didn’t get an opportunity to use the swimming pool but we have no doubt it would be perfect in warmer weather. The house is also very conveniently located for visiting Florence. We drove to a neighbouring train station in Montelupo and got the train from there that run very frequently. It saves the hassle of parking in Florence! All in all, we had a lovely stay.

It has been a great experience to be at San Carlo. The Villa is superb, much better than in the photos. It is huge, very well decorated, with style and a very nice and good furniture. The owner is a very nice lady. Erik, the person in charge of our stay, was quite nice and diligent. Fantastic swimming pool. The countryside is superb, surrounding with olive trees. I may say that the porch may need a little of improvement with the furniture. There is just a nice table and chairs. Some sofas or something similar would help. This is not a criticism, the photos shows exactly what you receive, it is just a suggestion.
So magnificent place and magnificent times, we will come back.
We cannot say enough good things about this holiday home rental!
It was a group of 7 of us uniting from all different parts of the world for a weekend of catching up and hanging out. We wanted something that gave us the possibility to cook together and offered other activities on the property.
The pool was such an amazing touch which we very much enjoyed! The ping pong table saw many intense matches, and we all slept so well.
The place is very well equipped when it comes to cooking. Everyone was very comfortable between all of the common spaces (we spent time in every single space), and again, bedrooms were very comfortable.
We have to also give a major shoutout to Erik, the caretaker on site; he was so lovely, welcoming and helpful!
Overall, our group was so pleased with our experience here! Would definitely recommend this for a group looking for a lovely little retreat tucked in the hills of Tuscany!

Vår familj, vuxna, ungdomar och barn hade en underbar vecka. Vi lagade fantastiska måltider, och vilka COOP det finns i Italien! Köket och loggian var härliga. Terassen vid poolen och allt badande i poolen behövdes i värmen. Våra vackra sovrum och vardagsrum njöt vi av. Utflykter till Florens, Volterra, San Gimingano och vingårdar. Vi hade en riktig familjevecka. Kul med bordtennis och biljard. Toscana är det vackraste landskap som vi vet. Hoppas att kunna återvända. Ciao! Familjen Lindblad från Stockholm

Nous étions 4 couples avec 2 adolescents. La maison est très spacieuse et offre de grands espaces autant à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. A bonne distance de Florence, de Sienne et de San Gimignano. La décoration intérieur n'est pas moderne, mais correspond tout à fait au charme de ce type de maison italienne. La salle de jeu est un plus et la piscine même fraiche a fait le bonheur des plus courageux. Les autres ont pu se détendre au bord de la piscine sur les transats mis à notre disposition. Une salle de bain par famille ce qui est agréable. La literie est de qualité. La maison est très bien équipée, et si jamais il manquait quelque chose, Erick était toujours disponible pour nous rendre service. Il était d'une grande gentillesse.

This property is magical! It was the backdrop for a reunion of 7 of us who live all over the world. The house is exactly what we were hoping for: a magical, rustic villa in the remote hills of Tuscany. We had plenty of space to cook together and share meals in the large dining room. More than enough bedrooms and bathrooms for everything. Plenty of lounge space and the ultimate bonus - the game room. The pool was perfection, even though we only had one nice day to use it.
I also must mention the caretaker onsite - Erik - who is so incredibly friendly and helpful! We was so kind to our group and even provided extra ping pong balls after our intensive tournaments resulted in a broken ball.
I cannot recommend this property enough! You will not regret it!

Met onze kinderen en kleinkinderen hebben wij een fantastische week gehad in Casa San Carlo. Het huis ligt heel vrij en het uitzicht vanaf het zwembad is adembenemend. Je voelt je gelijk thuis als je aankomt. Dat is mede dankzij de hartelijke ontvangst door de eigenaresse en door de beheerder Eric. Hij staat voor je klaar en zorgt ervoor dat de tuin en het zwembad er pico bello bijliggen. De plek beviel zo goed dat we de meeste tijd in en rond het huis verbleven. De keuken leent zich uitstekend voor het maken van maaltijden, alles is aanwezig! De tafeltennistafel is veelvuldig gebruikt en er was buiten ruimte genoeg om spannende potjes jeu de boules te spelen. Bij het zwembad is het heerlijk vertoeven op de ligbedden of in de schaduw van het overdekte terras. Kortom een heerlijke plek waar we met pijn in ons hart afscheid van hebben genomen en waar we hopelijk nog eens terug zullen komen.

A very spacious and comfortable villa in a beautiful location. We had a wonderful week at San Carlo and would strongly recommend this villa.
The local restaurant ll Focolare was wonderful and had a lovely outdoor garden area and served brilliant food and wine. The town of Montespertoli is a 10 minute car ride away and has a good Coop supermarket.
Fantastic pool with very helpful step entry for the younger children. The lovely shaded pool side terrace was very popular with our whole family.
A very big thank you to Erik who was always so willing to help us. For example, he arranged for a taxi to take us to the local town and responded very quickly to any small problems we had such as requiring a second cot by the pool area. He was so friendly and helpful and always available - he was brilliant. Thank you
Very accurate photos and lovely old farmhouse, swimming pool larger than average. On a quiet road by a tiny hamlet so very peaceful. Rooms are large with tall ceilings so when outside is very hot is cool inside. All the rooms have air conditioning and a ceiling fan. Four bathrooms with bath or shower. The kitchen has a large space with all the utensils you would need. I loved the large wardrobes in most rooms and the fireplace upstairs is so big it has a seat inside!
The house is old and in some places showing signs, a few suggestions overall to improve even more: a larger boiler so many people can shower at the same time. A full pool ball set so the game is useable. The piano needs tuning. A full supply of bin bags/toilet rolls for the duration of the stay.
Otherwise the experience here was wonderful.
