A great place to stay with a well equipped kitchen and a little library, The views were amazing and the house was comfortable. Be sure that you have a car that's a little higher off the ground because the driveway is the way a lot of house lanes are, a little bumpy, but nothing that can't be navigated by a slightly bigger car.

A wonderful stay

We stayed with Jane and Giampiero in a beautiful house for twelve days in May/June. Everything was exactly as in the photos and in the description. Jane and Giampiero are very kindful and helpful, we got a lot of tips about excursions, shopping, restaurants, museums and, and, and. We are looking forward to coming back. Nora and Dirk from Germany

The accomodation was as good as the pictures suggest. We were made very welcome during our two week stay and our hosts could not be more friendly or helpful. The property was very clean and had a good range of equipment. A useful set of guidance notes was provided which recommended good local eating places. A trip to the nearby Frescobaldi wine estate is a must, excellent wines and olive oil.

Great country villa!! We stayed here for 2 weeks to enjoy Tuscany. Jane the host was the best we have ever experienced. She is on site, stayed in touch and provided great information about the area. The last 1/4 mile to the property is a little rough but nothing a car cannot handle. It can be a little crazy the first time. It is super easy to get to the town of Pontassieve (10-12 minutes by car) and take the train wherever you want to go. Florence is only 25 minutes by train. I would highly recommend this if you are looking for an out of the way place but close enough to get to explore.

Great Tuscany Experience

Jane and her wonderful husband were so accommodating. They were a wealth of information of places to go & see and where to eat. Their place is in a beautiful location which gives you the true Tuscan experience. Jane arranged for us us to have the most wonderful wine tasting at the Frescobaldi winery. Because Jane knew we were arriving from a long flight from Canada she offered to get us supplies beforehand so that we would have something to eat and not have to go grocery shopping upon arrival. Their home is surrounded by gardens which they grow their own herbs which they told us to help ourselves to. Everything in their listing was as stated and even more. If we could give more than a five star rating we would. When we visit Tuscany again we will definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for making our Tuscany experience one of the best.

Tuscan Heaven

I can't say enough good things about both the cottage and the hosts. Jane welcomed us warmly and showed us around. The views from our windows were gorgeous. We loved the cottage; in fact, we loved the entire property. She and her husband, Giampiero, recommended places to visit: local towns, restaurants, coffee shops, and gelato shops as well as a wonderful wine tour and tasting at the castle above the property, which Jane bookled for us. We're hikers and enjoyed exploring the beautiful grounds and a road leading up to the castle. When our rental car nearly had a flat Jane noticed and gave us the name of a tire shop and the time they closed. If she hadn't we would surely have had a blowout out in the country somewhere. We tired of very touristy places early on in our trip and were grateful for their less-touristy recommendations. Another American couple staying there said it was their second visit and I can see why. If we return to Tuscany, which is everything we thought it would be and more, we'd definitely stay there again. It didn't hurt that although we don't speak Italian (I'm sorry to say), Jane is fluent in both English and Italian. One or our best VRBO experiences ever!

Perfect Tuscan holiday

We stayed in the ‘Vista’ property. The first thing to say straight away, is that the hosts Jane and Giampiero are really welcoming and helpful. Jane’s communication with guests is exceptional and should not be underestimated. We made some alterations to our plans and Jane dealt with them with ease. Good communication really became important on our arrival day. We took a flight which landed in the evening and we knew we would be arriving at the property fairly late. Due to flight delays and chaos at the car rental office, we set off from Florence airport much later than planned. We maintained contact with Jane and followed her (brilliant) directions to the house without any problems, but arrived very late and very tired. Jane met us and gave us a quick run through of everything. We had also taken advantage of Jane’s offer of getting groceries for us and we are so glad we did. It was Sunday the following day, we had plans and we knew we wouldn’t be able to get anything. If you are on a late or Sunday flight I would absolutely recommend you take up Jane’s offer! We were due to go to the Moto GP the following morning at Mugello and had to take an early train. Jane very kindly offered to meet us early the next morning and show us to the station and where to park our car. She also helped getting the tickets. This was really helpful because we were still only just finding our feet from the night before! Vista is a lovely property. We are fully in agreement with all the previous reviews about the views and the relaxing location. Simply stunning. We specifically chose Vista because it has a ‘full’ kitchen. We like to cook and it has everything you need. We had anticipated the rural position and the fact that in most cases you will need your car to visit restaurants etc. so we chose to eat lunch out using the car during the day and then prepare and eat dinner at home in the evening. We could enjoy a few glasses of delicious wine, sitting on the terrace, without worrying about driving. This is worth considering (unless you don’t drink of course!). The property was spotlessly clean and the bed (which is huge), bed linen and towels are very good quality. Everything you need is in there, including a selection of wines from the local winery, which are available to buy (they are really good too). Jasmine the dog and Peggy the cat are really friendly and funny and gave us a lot of entertainment!

Prachtig huis, schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien. De gastvrouw en gastheer waren erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het was helaas te heet om overdag buiten te zitten. S avonds zaten we na zonsondergang heerlijk buiten. Een tip willen we nog wel geven: graag dikke kussens voor de buitenstoelen. De weg er naar toe is goed aangegeven door Jane en het laatste stuk is prima te doen.

Liebevoll eingerichtetes Häuschen lädt zum Wiederkommen ein

Wir wurden von Jane sehr herzlich empfangen. Die Anreisebeschreibung war sehr gut und erforderlich. Das Haus ist typisch toskanisch eingerichtet. Es strahlt viel Charme und Behaglichkeit aus. Man spürt den Geschmack der Besitzer. Wegen der abgeschiedenen Lage erklärte sich Jane sogar bereit den Kühlschrank zu befüllen. Das Haus ist mit allen Dingen ausgestattet, die zu einem schönen Urlaub benötigt werden. Florenz ist mit dem Zug sehr gut zu erreichen. Wenn es nicht soweit von uns entfernt liegen (über 1000 Km) würde, würden wir gerne noch mal wiederkommen. Vielleicht finden wir einen Weg zu einem weiteren Besuch. Vielen Dank an Jane und Gianpietro für Ratschläge, Hilfe und gärtnerische Hinweise

Sehr empfehlenswerte Unterkunft

Sehr nette hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Uns hat die Kombination von Stadtbesichtigungen in Florenz und ruhigen Tagen auf dem Land sehr gut gefallen. Direkt vom Ferienhaus gibt es wunderschöne gekennzeichnete Wanderwege. Es ist hilfreich mit Tageslicht anzukommen, da das Ferienhaus etwas abgelegen aber landschaftlich sehr schön gelegen ist.

Idylle pur!

Wie schon viele andere Mieter bevor, können wir das Häuschen und die sehr netten Vermieter nur loben! Es ist beim ersten Mal nicht ganz einfach zu finden😊, man wird aber mit einer idyllischen Lage in den Weinbergen belohnt! Jane und Gianpietro sind sehr nette Leute, die sich um alles kümmern und helfend zur Seite stehen. Auf jeden Fall eine gute Adresse, um die Toskana zu erkunden oder nach den Ausflügen entspannt auf der Terrasse die Aussicht zu genießen.

Es war eine wunderbare Woche. Jane und Giampiero sind sehr nette Gastgeber. Sie haben viele Tipps und sind immer hilfsbereit. Da wir am Sonntag angereist sind, konnten wir sogar eine Einkaufliste abgeben, so dass wir versorgt waren. Das Haus ist wunderschön und es fehlt an nichts.

Bellissima

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Jane und ihr Mann haben uns sehr nett empfangen und auch wertvolle Tipps, u. a. zu Florenz (Fahrt und Trattoria) gegeben. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet ; außer einem Moskitonetz gegen die Stechmücken haben wir nichts vermisst. Dafür hat uns die Klimaanlage gute Dienste geleistet, da es schon sehr heiß war. Neben dem kulturellen "Pflichtprogramm" sind wir sehr viel gewandert. Wanderwege gehen direkt am Ferienhaus vorbei, so dass wir nicht immer mit dem Auto fahren mussten. Das ist vielleicht ein kleiner Nachteil, wenn man ein Auto mit wenig Bodenfreiheit fährt. Für den letzten Kilometer Feldweg braucht man schon etwas länger; aber wir wussten ja im Vorfeld, was uns erwartet .

Schönes Haus nicht mit von Florenz

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche im Haus von Jane und Giampiero. Das Haus und die Landschaft sind sehr schön! Und die vielen Tips von Giampiero! Ein Tip von uns: Mal nicht mit dem Zug nach Florenz, sondern nach Arezzo fahren! Und dort in der Antica Osteria l'Agania gegrillte Steinpilze oder Pasta mit Trüffel essen.

Wonderful place surrounded by nature in Tuscany

My boyfriend and I had such a pleasant stay at Janes and Giampieros place. The house is very lovely with a lot of sweet details in the interior design. It is equipped with everything you need and makes you feel like home a lot. The private terrace has a stunning view and is a place to stay all day. The area around the house is like a big garden and perfect to relax and enjoy the nature. Just a 15 minute walk to the castle with a beautiful view. Jane is such a nice person and is very helpful with everything you need. We definitely want to come back one day.

Das haben wir gebraucht!

Wir verbrachten 10 Tage an diesem wunderschönen Fleckchen Erde in einem tollen Haus mit interessanter Geschichte und viel Liebe zum Detail. Aufgrund der sehr positiven Feedbacks, haben wir uns für diese traumhafte Unterkunft entschieden. Ausnahmslos können wir es empfehlen. Wunderschöne Ausblicke über die Weinberge, Ruhe und Vogelgezwitscher; ach…… war das schön! Die Eigentümer Jane und Gianpiero, die nebenan wohnen sind ganz entzückende Menschen. Nach unserer Verabschiedung habe ich im Auto sogar ein Tränchen vergossen und war sehr traurig. Das habe ich nicht erwartet. Da kommt man an ein kleines uns unbekanntes Örtchen und lernt hoch oben auf dem Weinberg so tolle Menschen kennen. Liebe Jane, lieber Gianpiero, Danke dafür, dass wir unvergessliche Tage bei euch verbringen durften. Wir hoffen unserer Herbs werden gut wachsen in unseren Terakotta Töpfen:) Danke, Thank you, Dziekuje,Grazie. Aleksandra und Marc
