Fantastic property to enjoy Tuscany from

This is lovely rustic villa set in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. The host Sylvia was super helpful and lovely, one of the best we have come across and nothing was too much trouble. The house is spacious and well equipped with everything you need for a family vacation, and having the pool during the recent summer heat was simply fantastic after a day of exploring. The house is remote and private on a short unsealed road but just a 10 minute drive in to Volterra where there are plenty of cafes and supermarkets. A little further the other way is Colle di Val d’Elsa so self catering was easy. Highly recommend the property for an authentic Tuscan experience. 5 stars all the way!

Perfekt

Keine Angst vor dem Schotterweg zum Haus, der Weg lohnt sich und es wartet ein kleines Paradies. Küche ist toll ausgestattet und alles ist sehr liebevoll gestaltet. Silvia und ihr Team sind super aufmerksam und reagieren sehr schnell auf Fragen.

Tæt på perfekt

Et fantastisk hus i et dejligt område. Store værelser, stort køkken (med alt hvad man behøver) hyggelig stue med stor spiseplads, terrasse med stort spisebord og velfungerende gasgrill. Stor swimmingpool i lukket og ugenert have. God service fra den lokale Benyamin og udlejer Silvia. Eneste negative var en noget lang (2 km) tur på en hullet grusvej op til huset, vil anbefale at man lejer en SUV.
