The completely fenced-in garden has a well-kept lawn, lush plants and trees and houses a beautiful private swimming pool and a solarium: a perfect place to spend the hot summer days sunbathing or cooling off by the pool, surrounded by the fabulous landscape that the Tuscany region offers.

Just do it! This home is perfect! Great home for a group, giving your guests privacy and space. The saying a kitchen is the heart of a home is so true. We appreciated the kitchens location, separated from all sleeping spaces allowing early risers to be in kitchen without disturbing anyone. The house manager Sara is a true professional, so helpful and went above and beyond to be sure we felt cared for in this home.

Abbiamo fatto una rimpatriata tra amici con figli: eravamo 12 bambini e 9 adulti, la struttura è enorme e ha spazi per tutte le età. La cucina è super accessoriata. Noi avendo tanti bambini con noi non ci siamo mossi mai dalla struttura se non per fare la spesa e non ci è mai mancato niente…è la casa ideale per una situazione come la nostra. Siamo stati benissimo. Per affitti invernali suggerisco degli attaccapanni nella dependance sulla piscina e qualche panno della cucina in più, per il resto la casa è perfetta

Ein wunderschönes und großzügiges Anwesen mit viel Platz und einer reizvollen, ruhigen Lage. Nachts hört man jedoch die Geräusche der Bauern, die etwas weiter unten im Tal wohnen. Und rechnen Sie mit eventuellen zusätzlichen Stromkosten. Ansonsten waren wir äußerst zufrieden und hatten einen angenehmen und erholsamen Aufenthalt.
Schöne Anlage, schönes Haus und Pool. Tolle Aussicht, schöne Pergula, guter großer Tisch im Außenbereich. Abzug gibt es da die Klimaanlagen sehr veraltet sind, kann man nachts kaum nutzen weil sie so laut sind. Finden wir für den Preis nicht angemessen. Außerdem wenig Schattenmöglichkeiten und Bodenplatten um den Pool herum sehr heiß.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit. Die Unterkunft überzeugt durch ihre Weitläufigkeit und bietet genug Möglichkeiten um sich auch mal zurückzuziehen. Der Pool und die Outdoorküche waren ein Highlight!

Sono andato con un gruppo di 17 persone per trascorrere un weekend lungo. La villa era bella e molto spaziosa. Camere pulite e con tutto il necessario. Le aree comune, in particolare modo piscina, area griglia e la sala hanno permesso di passare un bellissimo weekend in compagnia.

Maison très agréable, avec très belle piscine, et de nombreux coins ombragés dans le jardin. Idéal pour un groupe d’amis voulant être ensemble mais avec une certaine intimité, avec les chambres éparpillées dans le domaine et cette maison centrale où se trouvent les espaces communs. A noter : le grand professionnalisme de Sara, qui s’est occupée de nous avec zèle et pro-activité pour nous aider à composer nos programmes, nous conseiller ou réserver un restaurant, nous apporter de l’eau, ou répondre à toute demande concernant la propriété.
Plusieurs points d’amélioration :
1/ indécent de faire payer 50 € d’électricité en plus des 5000 € de location ! Surtout que nous n’avons pas utilisé la Clim. Cela dégrade à posteriori l’expérience client.
2/ nécessité d’améliorer / de rénover la cuisine qui n’est pas au niveau du reste des prestations (siphon qui fuit,…). Il faudrait par exemple une machine à café à grains.
3/ nécessite de prévoir de l’eau en bouteille pour les locataires car l’eau du puits a très mauvais goût (Sara s’en est occupée a notre demande).

We hebben met kinderen en kleinkinderen een week genoten van het comfortabele huis, het heerlijke zwembad, de goed onderhouden tuin en de barbecueplek. De prachtige, rustige omgeving maakte het compleet. De service van de uitstekend Engels sprekende gastheer was excellent.

Ottimo pernottamento e residenza stupenda come da foto, giardino curato e pratico gazebo e griglia per fare grigliate
Eravamo in 11 ragazzi, la villa si desta anche a gran numeri di persone, la living room e il gazebo hanno come da foto uno splendido tavolo per stare tutti insieme, un'ampia dispensa con due frighi, le stanze erano ordinate e pulite, unica pecca, le stanze non sono collegate alla living room a cui si accede solo da fuori
Il nostro pernottamento é stato dal 14/10 al 18/10 ed essendoci stato sole siamo anche riusciti con un po di coraggio a tuffarci in piscina (gentilmente lasciata aperta oltre la data di chiusura indicata, su richiesta)
A 10-15 minuti di macchina si trovava tutto il necessario, supermercati e pizzerie, la casa é ben isolata dal resto e si trova a mezz'ora da Arezzo, raggiungibile con facilità
Host molto gentili e disponibili
Merita

Wonderful stay!!!
Very nice and helpful owners, great Villa with all necessities. We really loved and enjoyed our stay with the whole family.
Very comfortable house in a beautiful setting, much enjoyed by our 3 generation family. The barbecue area is very special and the pool just right for us all. Problems with the air conditioning made some nights uncomfortable and took a while to repair but owner was responsive to our requests.

We had the most beautiful family vacation of our life in this extraordinary villa! We loved the amenities and the garden with pool and the great area. You can also visit this part of Tuscany during the high season, tourism is kept within limits, which makes everything even more beautiful. We recommend the accommodation very much!

Großartige Villa um mal richtig auszuspannen und die Natur zu geniessen. Einige von uns haben an der Olivenernte teilgenommen und wir durften mit in die Presse fahren und konnten abends das beste Olivenöl der Welt geniessen! Ein tolles Erebnis! Das Hasu ist sehr schön eingerichtet und vor dem Kamin kann man abends wunderbar plaudern.
Die Umgebung und die Orte sind sehr schön zu besuchen, Vorfällen Cortona hat uns sehr gut gefallen.
