Gloomy interior
The property was in a perfect location and was very roomy. However, we found the interior very gloomy and dark. The décor was not to our taste at all, although this is, of course, personal taste, but we could not find anywhere that was comfortable to sit. There were also a few things that would have improved our stay - eg, some mugs, a toaster and a dishwasher. The garden furniture was also very dated and uncomfortable. Having said that, it was in a beautiful spot. The pool was lovely and the owners very kindly kept it open for us in late October, although unfortunately the weather was not good enough for us to use it. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful and welcoming and they did not interfere with our stay at all. If the villa was updated and decorated, it would make a perfect holiday location. We also felt that the cleaning charge of 115 euros was rather excessive.

Good but could be better
We enjoyed our stay here. The owners were really nice, the views spectacular, the pool lovely and the pizzeria in the village excellent. Just a few additions would have made it even better. There were no parasol by the pool which meant that when the sun was at its height we had to find shade elsewhere. There were no tongs for the barbecue. Some cooking oil in the kitchen would have been useful as would some mugs rather than just the small coffee cups. The one thing I would disagree with is that it sleeps six. Yes there are beds for six but two single beds are on the landing at the top of the stairs. In my opinion these are not suitable for children, I'd worry about the stairs if they got up in the night. Nor do i think are they suitable for adults, the only toilets are en suite to the bedrooms and they would have nowhere to hang their clothes. So treat it as sleeping four with a couple of spare beds in case of arguments!

Beautiful Tuscay
The Villa was a perfect setting for our first trip to Tuscany. Very traditional in a beautiful, quiet and relaxed setting. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return.

Sehr schöne Villa! Empfehlenswert
Die Villa war sehr groß, sauber und war in einer tollen Lage in einem kleinen Ort an dem es alles vor der Haustüre gibt. Spielplatz Tennisplatz, Restaurant. Der Pool ist in einer super Lage mit Blick auf die toskanische Landschaft. Er ist eingezäunt sodass kleine Kinder nicht selber zum Pool können. An Haushaltsgeräten war alles vorhanden und die Vermieter sind stets erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir würden jederzeit wieder herkommen.

Kind host, wonderful house, garden and pool. Beautiful view.
We had a wonderful week with our family. Patrizia is a very kind host and even looked after our dog when we went a day to Florence. The garden is great with a beautiful view and the pool completes it all. Thanks for this lovely week, Patrizia!

Sehr tolles Ferienhaus (Weingut) in der Toskana
Wir haben dort einer super Woche verlebt, angefangen vom morgendlichen Espresso zu viert auf der Terasse am oberen Schlafzimmer, mit dem Lied von Peter Cornelius:“Der Kaffee ist fertig!“! Mit Ausflügen nach Montepulciano, Siena, Arezzo, Assisi und Castelglion Fibocchi! Und dann das Highhlight mit der Einladung bei der Fattoria La Vialla bei Castelglion Fibocchi! Es war rundherum eine tolle Woche bei super Wetter! Wir konnten bis spät abends draussen sitzen und den herrlichen Garten, den Pool und den schönen Sitzplatz mit Grill genießen.
