I absolutely could not have asked for better for our stay in Tuscany. The home was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The whole home is beautifully decorated. A great location, under an hour to Florence by car or 45 minutes by train from Incisa station. Also about 15 minutes from a beautiful restaurant owned by Sting. The host Stephania is very nice, welcoming and helpful. Like others have said, rent a car with a bit of clearance due to the road, but it's not too bad. Thank you for a great stay!

Great stay

From start to finish our stay at Stefania’s property was excellent. It was a relaxing and beautiful countryside getaway that we used to unwind between day trips to local and regional cities. We would stay again should we return to the area. Stefania was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay and our time at her property was a great way to kick off our visit to Italy

Family in Florence

Our time at the property was excellent! The house was very clean and comfortable for a family, we were able to shop and cook and relax. The pool was lovely and the garden was so peaceful. Plenty of parking and a great location for visiting many Tuscan sites. The host was very kind and helpful we will be coming back!

Perfect Tuscany Break.

The property is nestled in the Tuscan hills and is surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty. We saw wild deer and wild boar! The host is on site to help with any problems, and was so helpful and kind. The area is a great jumping off location for visits to Florence and other local towns. Overall, this is a beautiful place to stay. Peaceful and relaxing. Thank you Stefania for a wonderful holiday.

Il Cavato

Comfortable and attractive house in lovely countryside setting. Welcoming bi-lingual owner. Living room and kitchen would benefit from better lighting and swimming pool decking needs some attention. Both minor issues for us.

Nice week in the Chianti region

Great week in the very beautiful Chianti region in a lovely property ideally located near Florence with a swimming pool and views on the valley. Stefania was available and helpful. The house is nicely decorated but suited for 4 people and lacking lights in the common area. The property can be difficult to access with a small car, will recommend a SUV. Nice week overall !

Hi I am sorry you find the house suitable for four people!! In general, for the price you payed, you can have a place half of the size of il Capriolo, with only one bathroom, a little kichinette and no laundry , and two small bedrooms . No one of my guest, in 8 years , complain about the size of the house… Hope next time you can find something better!

Definitely off the beaten path, quiet and relaxing

Stefania was very welcoming and the property is very beautiful. Nice views and the pool is worth the stay alone. As others have mentioned the master suite bed is a bit tired. The villa is in the country side and I would definitely recommend and SUV to reach the property. There are two small villages on either side of the mountain and you are roughly an 1hr 10 mins from Siena. There is a moka pot available but having an nespresso machine would be a nice touch.

Charm and calm in the countryside

Our week-long stay was perfect in every way. The two-bedroom, two-bath apartment was comfortable and thoughtfully decorated. The good working kitchen allowed us to prepare breakfast each day and late lunches as the spirit moved us--and all were enjoyed al fresco, in a private dining area outside the apartment. We loved the remoteness and quietness of the property's location and we enjoyed all the outdoor amenities, including the swimming pool, the endless views of the Chianti hills, and the nightly visits of the family of five wild boars (totally entertaining and a bit scary). Our host, Stefania Barone, could not have been more helpful or pleasant. This is definitely a five-star (plus) accommodation, highly recommended.

What a beautiful property. We arrived when the garden seemed to be in full bloom and it couldn’t have been a more fantastic backdrop for photos of our visit to Tuscany. Kitchen was a welcome option which allowed us to get supplies at the co-op and have a charcuterie with wine in the evenings. Good jumping off point to Florence, Siena, Lucca and Montepulciano. Loved seeing the fox and even glimpsed a good size boar on our way home one evening. I’ll remember the lovely smell of jasmine from the garden always. Thanks Steffania!

Einziges Problem war, dass wir mit einem großen und sehr hohen Wohnmobil unterwegs waren. Die Anfahrt mit diesem Fahrzeug war ein Abenteuer und ist nicht zu empfehlen. Mit jedem kleineren Fahrzeug toll. Die Besitzerin war äußerst freundlich und vom ersten Kontakt an hilfsbereit und kompetent. Der Empfang mit einer tollen Flasche Wein aus Chianti hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Jederzeit wieder . R

Historic Villa in the Country

This property is hundreds of years old but has been renovated to give modern amenities like good WiFi, nice kitchen and adequate bathrooms. Lots of outside space was ideal for relaxing at the end of the day. Stefania was always there to help with anything we needed. Just be sure to rent a car with good ground clearance because the last 1/2 km to the home is rough. We loved being in the quiet of the country.

Toskana Traum

Macht die Augen zu und stellt euch die Toskana vor. Genauso ist es ! Ein Natursteinhaus mitten in den Bergen. Abends laufen die Wildschweine über das Grundstück. Stefania ist eine Seele von Mensch ! Abends schaut man auf Millionen Lichter von Florenz! Tagsüber ist das Zirpen der Grillen der „Hauptunruheherd“! Nachts grunzen die Wilschweine oder schreit der Kauz! Wer toskanischen Flair in der Nähe von Florenz will, ist hier Goldrichtig. Mit Ameisen, mit Grashüpfern und Spinnentieren! Das Bett hat nur eine Matratze ohne Rost und das Kächern im Pool muss man selber übernehmen. Aber dafür gibt es Erholung im Überfluss! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt kommen gerne wieder ! Die letzten 500 Meter gehen über eine Schotterstraße, die nur von Fahrzeugen befahren werden kann , die über ausreichend Bodenfreiheit verfügen !

Wonderful house close to Greve in Chianti!

We Had a wonderful stay! Stayed for 2 weeks. Close by car to Florence an close to Pisa and just 3,5 hour ride to Elba! And it is close to several nice wineyards..😍 Nice pool and typical Toscana house, of Stone. The masterbedroom bed a little tired, but everyone sleept Good anyway. Nice little village on both sides of the house. The owner is a fantastic Woman who Helges us with all What we needed! 🙏 Could be a little hard to find the house if, as it did for us, the internet stop working 3 mins before we should find the house. Take a photo of the map before You Are lost. 😅 Enjoy!

Serene and close to nature

We have had a wonderful time at Stefanias place. She was a great host besides being an incredible interesting person. From the pool you have a beautiful view over flower fields and Florence. What I enjoyed the most was the scent of Jasmin, Rosemary and lavender everywhere on the property. Thank you Stefania for having us. We surly want to come back.

Wunderschöne Haus in wunderschöner Landschaft mit angenehmer Nachbarschaft

Das liegt wunderbar gelegen in den Hügeln südlich von Florenz mit schönem Blcik durchs Tal bis Florenz. Das Haus eine von vier Einheiten auf dem Anwesen (Häuser sind nicht alleinstehend sondern ein zusammenhängendes Gebäude). Wer also etwas für sich ganz alleine habe möchte, sollte sich woanders umschauen. Wir haben allerdings die anderen Gäste durchaus als Bereicherung verstanden. Auch ist das Gelände so groß, dass man nicht dicht aufeinander hängt. Nur am Pool ist natürlich ein Hotspot, jedoch in angenehmen Maße. Stefanja wohnt ebenfalls auf dem Anwesen und ist jederzeit verfügbar bei Fragen, Tipps oder für Hilfe. Sie ist ebenfalls sehr kinderlieb. Das Haus selber ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, so dass man auch hier den ein oder anderen Regentag gemütlich verbringen kann - optimiert ist das für 4 Personen, bei 6 Personen müssen 2 im Wohnzimmer schlafen. Einziger Wehrmutropfen, die schöne Terasse mit dem großen Tisch (die aktuell bei den Fotos gezeigt wird) gehört nicht zu dieser Einheit. Die Sauberkeit ist okay, aber nichts für Sauberkeitsfanatiker. Das Anwesen liegt zwar jwd aber doch zentral - Pisa, Siena, Arezzo sind jeweils in ungefähr 1 Stunde erreichbar, Florenz etwa in 25 min.. Zum Relaxen bietet der Garten genügend Optionen, zum Trailrunnen mit ordentlich Höhenmeter ist die Umgebung perfekt. Das "wildlife" umfasst Wildschweine, die abends mit etwas Abstand übers Grundstück ziehen, Rehe die hinter der Kurve warten - und leider auch relativ viele Bremsen (also Autan nicht vergessen). Alles in allem eine sehr gutes Paket - wir haben es sehr genossen und empfehlen es gerne weiter.

Location e posizione spettacolare e privilegiata, immersa nel bosco. Struttura curata ed accogliente, ci si sente come a casa. La proprietaria è il QUID in più; un mix di vitalità, energia, cultura ed ospitalità coinvolgente, senza la quale la vacanza non sarebbe stata la stessa. Infinitamente grazie Stefania.

Il Cavato - Endreihenhaus am Parkplatz

Das Haus liegt herrlich abgelegen mit schönem Blick durch die Täler nach Florenz. Das Haus ist umgeben von einem wunderbar in die Natur integrierten Garten. Leider wurde "unser" Haus nicht besonders instandgehalten und war insgesamt sehr unsauber. In dem Ferienäuserkomplex wohnten während unseres Aufenthaltes vier Familien als Feriengäste sowie die Eigentümerin, die allzeit präsent allen zur Verfügung stand - das muss man mögen. Insgesamt steht das Gelände allen Feriengästen und der Eigentümerin zur gemeinschaftlichen Nutzung zur Verfügung. Es kann Ihnen also passieren, dass der kleine Pool ständig durch einige Personen belegt ist, oder Sie auf dem Weg dorthin mit Ihren Kindern an mehreren vor den Eingängen angeleinten, großen Hunden vorbei müssen :-)😉
