Review for stay from 03 August 2024 to 17 August 2024

Beautiful old house with good room layout for many people, pool table and chess room complete the charm - minor renovations would make it perfect however the house and the adjacent vineyard did not look as well maintained as in the pictures. Beds, pillows and bed linen basic but sufficient. Villa cleanliness perfect, owner very kind and helpful. Pool area perfect. No air conditioning, which is not a problem, but at high temperatures at night where you have to leave the windows open, mosquito protection is essential, but unfortunately there is no such thing anywhere. Subbiano is not a nice place, 20 minutes by car to get to Arezzo, you need definitely a car.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Lo Scoiattolo. The villa was impeccable, with all the comforts of home. The grounds were so beautiful, and it was central to town. The owner arranged for a wonderful dinner in the wine cellar that was a highlight of our stay, and he was also available when needed for questions and assistance. My only two complaints are that the Villa is name something else on website and that caused confusion and the shower heads were pretty terrible. It is an easy fix that would make a huge difference in the comfort of the stay.

I would highly recommend staying at this property. The owner, Allessandro, was very kind and attentive to all our needs. I sent him a list of groceries and he had the groceries for us the first morning. There was an issue with the air conditioning in the bedroom and he was there in minutes to take care of it. He offers an authentic Tuscan meal prepared by his mother served in his wine cellar. It was the best meal we had that week. The property along with the pool is well maintained and the house is very clean. This was our second time to stay at this lovely Villa and would definitely stay again if we were to return to Tuscany.

The property was beautiful and very clean. We stayed at the villa for 6 days and were very pleased. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner Alesandro and several occasions. Very nice and easy to work with. He makes his own wine at the villa but also is an artist making jewelry, wine pourers, napkins rings.... We also met his mother who is a pleasure. The villa is in a good location. Quiet but close enough to be able to get out and eat and see things without too much of a drive. I would highly recommend this villa.

Much of what this villa offered met expectations and it was very clean. The owner, Alessandro, is a charming host and was on hand to deal with any issues/queries. However for the price we paid, I was somewhat disappointed with some of the kitchen equipment which was old, incomplete, missing and generally tired e.g. missing toaster, unsafe coffee pot, no grater, exhausted frying pans etc. The bedrooms were all good but attention was needed in at least one shower where the shower head fixing was broken and therefore didn't function. There was insufficient information for the guests regarding local facilities and no guestbook to let everyone share useful facts and info about the house and trips/restuarants etc. There is a walking distanced Michelin rated restaurant just down the road (1000 metres); excellent delivery pizza place that you should be aware provides "maxi" pizzas which are huge (feeds a family of 4). The pool is excellent and overall we very much enjoyed the experience but......small things matter and are very frustrating!!

Sehr schöne Villa wunderbar auf einem Hügel gelegen. Das Haus war ideal für unsere große Familie geeignet, um ein paar ruhige Tage am Pool, bei grillen und Ausflüge in die Umgebung zu unternehmen. Alles ist sehr sauber und entspricht den Bildern. Danke Alessandro für den freundlichen Empfang und die spontane Weinprobe!

Trotz nicht optimalem Wetter, konnten wir die Woche sehr geniessen. Das Haus war bei der Ankunft sehr sauber und es wurde alles eingehalten, was im Angebot versprochen wurde. Besonders möchten wir den sehr freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Vermieter Alessandro erwähnen. Er war bei der Ankunft pünktlich vor Ort und auch bei der Abreise gab es keinerlei Probleme mit der Rückgabe der Kaution. Einziger Wermutstropfen waren die vielen Ameisen in der Küche. Aber das haben wir auch schon bei anderen Häusern erlebt und ist wohl in der Toskana normal. Wir werden irgendwann sehr gerne wieder zurückkommen.

Wunderschöne Villa mit erfrischendem Pool in Alleinlage. Umgeben von Weinreben, Oliven- und Feigenbäumen konnten wir unseren Toskana Urlaub hier wunderbar genießen. Der Besitzer war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Villa war sehr sauber, der Außenbereich gepflegt und schön angelegt. Jedes Zimmer hatte sein eigenes Bad. Die Küche war super ausgestattet. Einen mit Holz befeuerbaren Steinofen benutzten wir mehrmals, ein normaler Grill ist aber auch vorhanden. Alles in allem ein Ort an den wir gerne nochmals zurück kehren würden!

Lo Scoittolo (also known as La Vigna) was everything we hoped for. It is so beautiful. Alessandro is a wonderful host. We were four couples who had more space than we needed. The villa is ideally located for many great day trips. Absolutely clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and aesthetically pleasing. We opted for Alessandro's mother to cook a dinner for us one night. It was held in the taverna in the basement of the villa, with a roaring fire. It was a little pricey at 50 euro per person, but that included unlimited wine and 3 courses. We thoroughly enjoyed it and discovered that Alessandro is not only a wine maker but a metal artisan. Just a few things that potential renters might want to know: if you need heat, it will be 40 euro per day. Apparently, it's not possible to calculate the actual usage exactly, so this is what Alessandro charges. It can be a little unclear about what the charges might be. But we felt Alessandro was being fair and that given the very reasonable price of the villa in low season, it was okay. The wifi was spotty. We had none the first two days, which we understood was a problem with the local network. But even when it was working it appeared that there was a limitation to the number of devices that could be on a once. (Some of us got connected and others could not) Overall, this place was wonderful and I would rent it again.

Fantastic Italian Villa!!

We stayed in Alessandro's beautiful Villa in late October. We had the place to ourselves and there was plenty of room. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom which was very convenient for our group. The location is set back from the road on top of a small hill so it is very private. The side patio is ideal for sitting in the morning or evening to enjoy some breakfast or wine and cheese. The location is great as it is about a 3 minute drive to the small town of Subbiano with a couple great restaurants. We also did day trips to Florence, Siena, and Assisi. The Villa is about 15-20 minutes drive from the Arezzo train station. Driving to Siena and Assisi was just over an hour. The only misunderstanding we had was we thought it cost 14 euros per day to turn the heat on, but it was 40 euros. Not a big deal, but the heat was not pumping out of the radiator. Alessandro was very kind and provided us a lovely bottle of wine from his vineyard that is on the property. We stopped at a couple very nice wineries that are about a 15 minutes drive from the Villa. I would highly recommend the Villa for a group of people or a family!

Villa Lo Scoiattolo was perfect! The home and property was everything promised and accommodations were great for our family and friends. Alessandro (owner) was helpful and welcoming. He worked on property site daily and so he was always accessible to us. I would recommend this property for the quality of the home and location. It should be noted that Subbiano is not a tourist area and therefore most businesses do not speak English. However the people are very friendly and helpful. Great property!
