Cottage Familiar em Autêntico Estilo de Pedra Swimmingpool Wine Relax Wif

My dears, Your words are of great value for Massimo and me because we are always so happy when our guests enjoy our cottage and Ornina's whole surrounding! We are grateful for your recoming to us. As you told us you had a nice time there and we are pleased in hearing that. Thank you for defining us friendly and helpful! We try to do what we can! Have a nice day! All the best for your family, Cecilia and Massimo 😊😊

Dear Roy, thank you for coming to us this summer and for choosing our house. We are happy that you had a good holiday. In fact, our cottage is in a wonderful location, immersed in untouched nature. The swimming pool is indeed a shared space. We are very sorry to read that you didn’t know it. In our presentation it is said that it is a common space. For sure, if it had been a cottage in such a lucky location and an exclusive pool, the price would have been much higher, as you can imagine. Anyway we’re sorry about that. Instead, we are happy that the house was perfectly clean as you write. We always recommend it a lot and Tiziana is very good. Thank you very much for recommending more comfortable outdoor seating. We will surely think about that. Thanks again for coming and best wishes to everyone to have a good time the next few seasons. A warm greeting Massimo and Cecilia

Dear Anne, I realize just now that I did not answer your nice review! I am really sure I did last summer but maybe I did something wrong in loading up my response… I am not so skillful with technology. Sorry! Anyway, thank you sooo much for your wonderful description of our cottage. It is/was a pleasure reading how you felt well in spending your summer holidays in Ornina. I hope to see you again, soon. Our warmest greetings, Cecilia with Massimo

Hallo Kristina, ich habe deine Bewertung gelesen und freue mich sehr, dass dir die Landschaft um Ornina und der Pool gut gefallen haben. Was das Haus betrifft, tut es mir leid, dass du es vernachlässigt fandest... Das Haus ist zwar alt, aber wir kummern herzlich darum. Wenn du dann die Probleme mit der Spülmaschine, dem Toilettensitz oder dem Moskitonetz gemeldet hättest, hätten wir versucht, sie zu beheben. Riccardo erzählte mir, dass du nur berichtet hast, dass während eines Sturms Wasser aus dem Kesselabzug fiel. Er fragte ob die Maschine funktionierte: er hat das Problem ganz ernst genommen. Als gewusst, alles regelmaessig funktioniert, erklärte er, dass dies in älteren Häusern nicht ungewöhnlich sei, aber es habe keine Probleme mit dem Kessel selbst verursacht, und das sei das Wichtigste. Es tut mir auf jeden Fall wirklich Leid. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Massimo

Liebste Annabel, vielen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung! Massimo und ich freuen uns, dass Ihnen der Aufenthalt in Ornina so gut gefallen hat und dass Sie eines Tages wiederkommen möchten. Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass Ihre Bewertung auch für unsere zukünftigen Gäste von großem Nutzen sein kann, da Sie auch Vorschläge für Orte und Natur- und Kunstschätze machen, die man besuchen sollte. Danke auch für die netten Dinge, die über uns persönlich gesagt wurden. Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, obwohl es für uns selbstverständlich ist, unsere Gäste mit Gastfreundschaft und Respekt zu behandeln. Auch unter anderem due Tatsache, dass man dort den guten Wein von Marco und Greta probieren Iann. Herzliche Grüße aus Florenz, Massimo und Cecilia

Dear Pascale and family, thank you very much for the nice review you wrote us. We are happy that you had a nice holiday and that you enjoyed Ornina. Indeed the landscape is beautiful and the location of the swimming pool is very special. When you want to return you are welcome, a beautiful wish for everything and thanks again! Chère Pascale et famille, Merci beaucoup pour l'avis favorable que vous nous avez adressé. Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez passé de bonnes vacances et que vous ayez apprécié Ornina. En effet, le paysage est magnifique et l'emplacement de la piscine est très spécial. Quand vous voulez revenir vous êtes les bienvenus, un beau souhait pour tout et encore merci !

Dear Briony, you can't imagine how happy and proud we were of your lovely review. Sometimes, when reviews like this come in they are the crowning glory of the work that goes into making our guests feel welcome in Ornina. Maybe from our ad you don't understand how spacious the estate is, how much peace and freedom there is and how special is the location of the pool because many guests are surprised by these things. In fact at Ornina there would be no need for air conditioning, as you say. And if you say so, you had a very hot summer too! However, we will install it in September because perhaps some guests would prefer to have it even in a place as high up as Ornina. It's true, although the pool is designed for four families (two in the cottage where you were staying and two on the farm above our property, which belongs to our nephew Marco, was it not clear in our ad?), it's a large, comfortable pool and no one is taking away the freedom of the others. Thank you again for coming and we hope to see you again. Warm greetings from Tuscany, Cecilia and Massimo.

Vielen Dank für die sehr schöne Bewertung, die Sie uns gegeben haben, Alexander! Sowohl Massimo als auch ich freuen uns sehr, dass Sie eine gute Zeit in Ornina hatten und einen schönen Urlaub in der toskanischen Landschaft verbringen konnten. Unser Haus ist einfach, aber wirklich im authentischen Stil wie früher die Bauernhäuser waren. Die Stärke ist, neben der allgemeinen Atmosphäre der dichten Natur, die uns umgibt, sicherlich das Schwimmbad, wie Sie betont haben. Danke Ihnen herzlich! Es tut uns sehr leid hingegen, dass die Fliegen Sie gestört haben. Es war ehrlich vor einigen Jahren schon passiert. Auch in diesem Jahr hatten wir zwei Wochen, in denen die Fliegen leider anwesend waren. Trotzdem war es überhaupt nicht feucht und außerdem gibt es in der Nähe keine Tiere, Tierfarmen oder ähnliches ... Schade! Vielen Dank für Ihr Kommen und wir freuen uns auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen. Unnötig zu sagen, wie schön Ihre Worte über den Sternenhimmel sind, der Ihnen in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Der Sternenhimmel ist nicht unsere Arbeit (!), aber es ist immer noch ein Geschenk für uns, die Tatsache, dass Sie ihn in Ihrer Bewertung erwähnt haben! Ein schöner Wunsch für eine wunderbare Zukunft an Ihre ganze Familie senden Cecilia und Massimo

Dear Hilde, thank you so much for the wonderful review you have just written about your holidays at our cottage! I am happy that you enjoyed your holidays not only by being at the pool and in the garden on our estate, but also by visiting the cities of art that represent the history of Tuscan art, from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. The Casentino is just as you described it: natural and beautiful and the excursions, the walks in the park are still quite unknown to the people who visit our region. It was nice to have your family as summer guests and we hope that one day you can come again to visit us. Thank you very much also for having explicitly recommended our cottage for future guests. I hope it is a good omen to make this beautiful area of Tuscany known. Massimo and I greet you cordially and wish you all the most beautiful things

Dear Caroline, thank you very much for your nice review. Sorry if I answer your words in English but English is for me more familiar than French. Thank you for writing that Ornina is a place to discover! Perhaps it is the most important thing that travelers, who do not know the Casentino, want to read if this region is an unknown place for them. It is true what you write: the pool is really comfortable and everybody likes it. Our panoramic pool represents for our guests indeed both a place where to spend the whole day with one’s own family, and a moment of relaxation after a day trip in the cities of art. It is also true that the house is rustic and still has the original structure of a typical Tuscan farmhouse that makes the atmosphere a bit 'old'. It is also its charm. Massimo and I thank you a lot for coming hoping you and your family maybe will return one day in the future and wishing you all the best! Ciao, Cecilia with Massimo

Lieber Rainer, lieben Dank für Eure nette Bewertung. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Ihr alle einen schönen Urlaub in unserem Haus verbracht habt. Ja, es stimmt, unser Haus ist ein strategischer Ort für Ausflüge und für den Besuch der Kunststädte. Es tut mir leid, dass Ihr den Garten, den wir vor dem Haus in diesem grünen Bereich eingerichtet haben und der mMn eine Atmosphäre der Intimität schafft, etwas ungemütlich fandet. In der Tat ist das ein Bereich, den wir wegen seiner Geräumigkeit gedacht haben, um das BBQ vorzubereiten. Ihr könntet alternativ unter der Loggia zu Abend essen, die direkt neben der Küche liegt… Das finde ich auch eine schöne Ecke. Wenn Ihr jedoch zurückkommt, werde ich Euch den Hausteil (bzw. die Hauptoption) ‚Elena‘ anbieten, der einen riesigen Garten direkt vor dem Haus hat, mit all dem Platz, den man sich wünschen kann. Herzlichen Dank für Euren Besuch! Massimo und ich wünschen Euch allen alles gute für die Zukunft, LG nach Deutschland, Cecilia mit Massimo

Herzlichen Dank Ute für Deine schöne Bewertung! Massimo und ich freuen uns sehr, dass Du und Deune Familie einen schönen Urlaub bei uns in Ornina gehabt habt und dass Deine Kinder auch Spaß gehabt haben! Wir beiden hoffen aus Herzen, dass wir uns wiedersehen können 😊😊 Jetzt ein paar Worte auf Englisch! Dear Ute & Co, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Massimo and I are very happy that you and your kids spent a good time in Ornina and that you liked it! I will let know Tiziana that you enjoyed her kindness and helpfulness. We hope to see you again in the future as you say! Thank you again for coming and all the best! Massimo and Cecilia ☺️☺️☺️

Dearest Ute & Co, I thank you so much for the nice words you wrote for our review. Massimo and I are really happy whenever a family, that comes to us, leaves us such a positive feedback. We both lived some wonderful moments in Ornina and we love this place very much. So you can easily imagine how receiving these beautiful messages is pleasant for us especially when you tell us that your children had fun, too! And they had fun not only at the pool but also cycling all around. Active and sporty! Because the area around Ornina is really hilly, not flat at all. I hope you will come again on another occasion and we can get to know each other personally. I wish you all the best for your future, thanks again for coming. Warm greetings Cecilia and Massimo 😊😊

Beste Anne, onze beste dank voor de leuke beoordeling. Mijn Nederlands eindigt hier! Now in English! It is always nice for us to see that our guests appreciate the beauty and tranquility of our estate. You can enjoy the silence of nature, wake up in the morning without the noise of traffic and technology, relax and forget the bustle of your busy life…. We also thank you a lot for underlining the fact that our house is authentically original, it is not a rebuilt house in rustic style. It is obviously restructured and remodeled on the needs of the today's day life but is really authentic also in its building materials. We are really happy that you had a good time in Ornina and we sincerely hope that you will return one day in the future. Thank you for coming! Massimo and Cecilia

Dearest Sarah and Family, Massimo and I can not find the right words to thank you for such nice words! We are both incredibly glad that you all spend a beautiful family holiday in Ornina. You are a fantastic family, with three really charming girls! We thank you a lot for coming and with wait for you with great pleasure if you decide to come again in the future. We wish you all the best in your life. Thank you! Cecilia and Massimo

Dearest Fay and Peter, thank you for being with us in Ornina. Massimo and I have just read your review. We deeply regret that your holiday in Ornina was so disappointing for you . We always do everything possible for our guests from around the world , who want to visit Tuscany, so that they can fell well in our estate. We value the tranquility, calm , enjoyment of nature, the simple but genuine things. We have no great pretensions but we know that our guests come to us to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Many of them have been coming to us for many years. This is a great satisfation for our efforts. You can understand that your review was of course an unpleasant surprise. A complete surprise because in the last twenty years we have been always making our best to improve our acceptance in Ornina. We know that our house is not a luxury thaing, it is not a villa but prices prove it. Nevertheless, we offer our guests a great seriousness, a great care, a great passion and -but this is just luck-, it does not depend on us- we offer them the beauty of the location and nature. We are very sorry that the oven was broken, but you shoul have write that we offered you soon an electric oven that could replace it. Of course, it was a smaler oven, but you had not to renounce, you remained not for a week without oven. Massimo and I are also very sorry for the shower which did not work well, but if you had told it to us we have could soon phoned to the worker and reapit it immediatly. The best thing would be perhaps if you could let us know that it did not work. It could thus also avoid the damage to the wall and Massimo and I would be very grateful to you. What the horseflies concerns, we are fully aware that they are annoying but when there are those rare muggy summer days, one can not avoid them!! Especially in the countryside . And yet we are not even animals! It depends only on the climate.There were really extraordinary days, they really have shaken the earth with the earthquake and the shocking changing. Excuse my poor English I hope everything is clear even if not elegant expressed! We are very sorry, thanks anyway for coming, warm greeting Massimo and Cecilia

Hello Patricia and Stephan! Cecilia and I thank you a lot for your very positive review! It was a pleasure for us to have you all as spring guests:it was indeed too cold for enjoying our swimmingpool, for you, too, who are used to completely different temperature! It was a pity! But if you come back during summer months next time, your children will have an other, very great reason to enjoy Ornina! Thank you again for coming and for appreciating our estate, our surrounding nature, our house! You are really two fantastic, nice families and your children very sweet. We wish you all the best in your life, warm greetings from Florence, Massimo

Dearest Maya, thank you very much for your beautiful review! Massimo and I are very pleased that you stayed so good in our cottage. We wish you and your family all the best and we are looking forward to see you again! Have nice days Cecilia with Massimo.

Dear Conny and family, I am very happy to read your enthusiastic words! You say we are great hosts; I think we have also the great fortune to own a place like Ornina and to live in Tuscany... For us it is a pleasure to have guests from other countries that like to enjoy our beautiful nature in a very quite position, away from daily distress. Hoping you can come back to Italy soon, Cecilia and Massimo wish you all the best!
