My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and had a great time. It was a very cute villa and had an above ground pool with an amazing view. The family does stay next door in their house, but we did not have any disruptions. They were quick to reply and help up check in and out. They left us snacks and wine, and were very hospitable! Would definitely recommend this stay.

This is the place to stay away from crowds and experience the local flare of Tuscany and Firenza region. Villa was lovely, safe, and as described online. We enjoyed the location to Florence and surrounding villages. Go to the town of Saltino, 25 minutes from the villa, for an incredible drive, view, and food, or try Tenuta Risalpiano for another restaurant new the villa. Overall, this was an incredible place to stay, relax, and enjoy the views.

Vacation time in the Tuscany Region

This VRBO and its surroundings are absolutely beautiful. The herbs growing along the wall, the olive trees and beautiful potted flowers just add to the ambiance. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. A rental car is needed for the area.

The nicest host in Italy

What a pleasant and exceptionally helpful host Gianna is. Property is located on a small farm, you will feel part of the family. It is quite compact so really best suited for a couple. Property is ideally placed for travel around Tuscany, esp Florence, . The local train station is only a few kms away. Many thanks Gianna, we especially enjoyed the fresh eggs and Garden produce.

Wonderful Stay

It was a wonderful stay in a beautiful area. The house is very clean and has everything you need for your everyday life. Gianna was a very warm host. She gave us her homemade olive oil and fresh vegetables from her own garden. It was very delicious. She also had useful tips about other beautiful towns in Tuscany that aren't visited by too many tourists.We would love to return to this wonderful holiday home. I can only recommend it to everyone.Distinti saluteSarah & Sascha

Amazing vacation

We had an amazing vacation in Tuscany at La Casina. The owners are very friendly and helpful. On our arrival there were groceries available so you can cook a simple pasta, perfect for when you arrive late. You can get some fresh eggs from the chickens or fresh vegetables from the garden. The house is a perfect base for a city trip to Florence. The surrounding areas are also great for cyclist. After a city trip or workout, the pool is an excellent way to cool down,

Lovely property, great location

My wife and I stayed here on a recent trip to Tuscany. The property is beautiful and quiet and you could not ask for a nicer hostess in Gianna. She gave us fresh eggs from her chickens, rustled up and adapter so we could charge our phones and answered every dumb question we asked. We picked this place because we wanted an easy way into Florence and it is perfect for that. The train station is literally five minutes away and the journey to Florence just 20 minutes. It’s also an easy drive to lots of other Tuscany attractions and hill towns. It’s an affordable family friendly atmosphere. We loved our stay.

We enjoyed our stay so much! Gianna and her family were so nice and welcoming! I don't usually stay at properties where the family also stays, but I'm so glad I did this time! My husband and I loved the views and I made dinner in the loft kitchen twice using the fresh herbs Gianna had growing. She was so generous and left us food staples to make dinner and it really came in handy the first night when we realized that we would rather drink wine outside than go out to dinner! One thing to note about this area (and most places we visited in Italy), is the restaurant hours. Many places only open for dinner and that starts around 7pm. Lunch is over at 3pm and most places close from 3pm-7pm. Everything was perfect for our stay and the area is lovely.

Gianna far exceeded my expectations. The house was the perfect get away for my vacation. The property was well maintained and the view was breathtaking. She gave me some helpful pointers on how to get around town safely and was always available to answer any questions. I had the privilege to roam and explore her property where olive trees and other fauna thrived due to her tentative care. My home was clean and equipped with everything I needed. I was even welcomed with a bottle of wine and olive oil from the orchard! Thanks you Gianna and family for your warm hospitality, It will always be something to remember! I’ll definitely be back

Delightful quiet Tuscany Farm House

We will be back! Gianna and her family made us feel so welcome. Very clean, Comfortable bed, comfortable sofa! Everything is just as described and the family even shared some of their own olive oil from their orchard. Fresh eggs and vegetables at our door were so generous! The turn from the road to the driveway is hard to see but Gianna helped us find it no problem! We will miss the countryside there!

We had two wonderful weeks with our dog. The hostess is already waiting for you upon arrival. Just in case you haven't had time to do your grocery shopping yet, there's already everything you need to make breakfast or pasta. Fresh vegetables from her garden are also ready for you. The cottage is authentically furnished and equipped with air conditioning, which was definitely needed. It's wonderfully peaceful, and the pool is cleaned every morning. The whole family is incredibly friendly, and the cottage was fantastic. In short, a very successful holiday, highly recommended!

Real Toscany experience

I stayed here almost three months. If you want to see real Toscany life, this Is the place to be. Whole family was very kind and helpfull. I did not have a car and I managed very well. There are many amazing hicking paths just nearby (starting from your doorsteps) and very good public transportation to Pontassieve and Florence. If you want to know what Is Toscany life, this Is the place to be. I will certanly come back.
