Charming house
We had a such a wonderful visit. The house is very comfortable and very well equipped. The location is perfect for day trips to many interesting towns and beautiful sights. When not touring the views, pool, and tennis court can make for a relaxing day.

Excellent sejour !
Nous avons reçu un excellent accueil de Laura le maman de Giulia avec beaucoup d'explications sur le fonctionnement de la maison et les activités touristiques à faire dans la region. L'habitation est une jolie maison ancienne décorée avec gout. Elle est agreable et bien équipée. La literie est confortable. Le lieu est très calme et reposant avec une jolie vue sur la campagne toscane. Nous avons bien profité de la grande piscine juste en dessous de la maison et du court de tennis. Le lieu est idéalement situé entre Sienne et Florence et proche de San Gimignano. Nous garderons un excellent souvenir de notre séjour !

Fantastique !!!
Merveilleuse propriété dans un cadre enchanteur. Accueil chaleureux. Propreté impeccable. Maison bien équipée, fonctionnelle, décorée avec goût. Paisible et reposant.
Un seul bémol mais qui dans notre cas ne fut pas un problème, la douche est étroite, ce qui pourrait certainement présenter un problème pour les gens en surpoids.
Autrement, cette propriété est parfaite et nous la recommandons chaleureusement !

Authentic and great location in the middle of the nature reserve!
We had a great time in this house on our Tuscany short trip in March. Nothing is missing and the house is very tastefully decorated. The beautiful surroundings and the quiet location have contributed greatly to relaxation and there is a tennis court for exercise. Giulia is a great host, we felt very welcome and the arrival and departure arrangements were completely uncomplicated. The highlights were our trips to Siena and other sights that are easily accessible. All in all a great holiday in a beautiful setting with a perfect host.

Sehr schönes Haus
Wir haben einen sehr schönen Urlaub verbracht. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Lage auf einem Hügel hat geholfen, den sehr heissen Temperaturen zu trotzen.
Die Vermieter waren sehr hilfsbereit. Die umliegenden Städte der Toskana sind gut zu erreichen. Die Anfahrt über die Allee ist etwas abenteuerlich, aber man gewöhnt sich daran.
Alles in allem ein toller Urlaub in einem tollen kleinen Dorf.
