Our stay in Sara's house was wonderful! She's was very helpful and responsive during our visit. She had to wait over an hour for us to arrive because we got lost and was so patient and kind! The house is lovely! It's spacious and comfortable and over looks the stunning Tuscan hillside. The views take your breath away! The outside patio area is beautifully landscaped with several seating areas to relax and take in the beauty. We had our breakfast outside every morning. The outside seating area is on a lower level so you do have to navigate stairs to access the patio. The bedrooms are on the same level, also one flight below the kitchen and living room. The house is conveniently located-- 20 min to Siena and close to many other Tuscan hillside towns. We hope to return next year!

.Our first view of the villa was breathtaking, with its Tuscany style stone construction and breathtaking views of the beautiful rolling hills and vineyards of the surrounding countryside. The interior of the villa was beautiful as well, and had all the modern conveniences. This was just the place to unwind after an intense 10-day tour of Italy.

Easy and fast communication upfront. Very warm welcome and goodbye by the owner. The house was great for us and our dog. Clean, big, lovely rooms and, great and modern kitchen and bathrooms, equipped with everything you need. The garden is big with such a nice view. We loved to stay there!

Amazing stay
Sara's house is just perfect. The views are breathtaking and the house is spacious, light and airy and has everything you could want for a great holiday. Sara is a lovely welcoming host and kept in touch during the holiday to check everything was ok. The garden is private and quiet and we spent a lot of time sat out there enjoying the astonishing views. The nearest village Quercegrossa is a 15 minute walk away and has an ice-cream and patisserie shop and a great village shop with deli counter and butcher counter. We had a brilliant holiday and we will definitely return.

Amazing experience!
Cannot say enough good things about this listing. The house is absolutely beautiful, and Sara is the perfect host. It was both the most beautiful house, and in the most beautiful location, of anywhere we have stayed. While we had complete privacy, we also felt totally welcomed. We’re so grateful for all the effort Sara put into making our stay so incredible.
The views are even more amazing than the pictures portray, the garden is lovely, and the house is cozy, comfortable, and clean.
The location is really great for exploring Tuscany—it’s a short drive to Siena, but in a stunning part of the countryside, close to many wineries and within an hours drive from many of the major tourist destinations.
We want to live there! Still waiting to see if Sara is willing to trade houses with us :)

Wonderful stay in Tuscany
We loved our stay at Le Redi. The house was beautiful, with incredible views of the area and all the comforts of home. Our host was so thoughtful and helpful with any questions we had. The apartment included some toys for our kids to play with, which was a lovely surprise. Highly recommend!

We couldn’t have imagined how fabulous
LeRedi would be. Every detail of this home is extremely well thought out. Highly recommended for an authentic Tuscan experience. We hope to return someday.

Great location between Siena and Florence, nice house cooled by geothermia, confortable beds, large rooms, access to a barbecue, and a nice terrace to have meals outside. The kitchen is fully equipped, there is dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, enough hygenic paper for the stay, and complimentary soap bars. Be careful about the wasps as a few get inside during the warm days, check the curtains of the living room when you get back from your day trip (my son got stung twice as he was playing near the curtains). Other than that, a sensational welcome with an apple cake, many tips to visit and avoid the crowds, the Mulino was great also to cool down during the canicule with the kids as there isn't a swimming pool. The view is breathtaking from the windows and balcony on olive groves and vineyards.

Fantastic location, beautiful view
A centrally located (in Tuscany) property out of the Siena hustle and bustle but yet within easy reach. Property is well set up with all essentials and well equipped for families.

Fantastic property and great location for a base when touring Tuscany
We landed at a flooded Rome Airport, waited 3 1/2 hrs for our luggage and drove to Quercegrossa, arriving later than planned. Irene graciously greeted us, showed us around the house and handed us the keys. We knew immediately we had made an excellent choice of accommodation for our month's stay in Tuscany.
In the ensuing days we met Sara the delightful owner, who insisted we made her beautiful "Green House" our home for the duration of our stay. We couldn't have hoped for a more comfortable and well appointed home - but the spectacular views are what will remain with us, etched in our memories and hopefully captured on film.
We were fortunate enough to share the beauty of the Region and especially "Le-Redi" with family and friends at various times during our stay. With so much to do and see - we explored majestic hilltop cities, enjoyed wonderful local cured meats, cheeses and of course the fabulous wines! We even got to watch the annual Chianti Classico (vintage) Car Race from Quercegrossa to Castellina in Chianti. What a spectacle! So much fun, and so many beautifully restored cars.
Sara offered us great advice which helped us plan trips to Florence and Venice. Her local knowledge was invaluable to us. She was the perfect host - available when needed, yet respectful of our privacy. It was a joy and a privilege to stay in her lovely house.
We had some good restaurant meals in the area, but what gave us most pleasure was cooking "at home" with all the lovely ingredients we sourced on our daily excursions. My brother-in-law cooked a fabulous Risotto Ai Funghi Porcini. My husband, being Australian and loving to BBQ, cooked us wonderful Bistecca alla Fiorentina, which were the best we've ever eaten! Our dear friends Louise and Bill made us their delicious version of Pollo alla Cacciatora. With a few glasses of Chianti Classico and views to die for - who could want for more?

Great Home!
We had a wonderful stay in Tuscany and at this house. The house was in a perfect location to see all of Tuscany. The parking was exclusive and easy. The kitchen was fully stocked. The rooms were comfortable. I would highly recommend this home for a relaxing time in Tuscany!

Beautiful home and setting!
Le Redi was the perfect location and home for our stay in Tuscany. Sara was a delight and the apple cake her aunt baked for us was such a welcoming touch. The house is even better than the pictures and was spotless. It was the ideal choice for our family of four adults. We will definately stay here again on our next Italian adventure.

A wonderful family vacation!!
We had the most delightful time at Le Redi house. The house was even nicer than the photos! Everything we needed was available to us....dishes....linens....etc. Everything was very clean. We were a family of 6 and there was plenty of room for all of us. Sarah, our hostess, was so kind and helpful, even assisting us in communicating with taxi companies and doctors.

WOW!! Really excellent.
We have rented a number of apartments and homes through VRBO in the US and internationally, but this was the best ever. We were there about 2 1/2 weeks but wished we could have stayed even longer. Everything was perfect -- the view over the vineyards and olive groves with a village on a hill in the distance, the house layout and facilities are exceptional, the location for touring Tuscany was perfect, etc. Sara, the owner, greeted us on arrival and told us all we needed to know about the house and its appliances, etc. She was also there at checkout and is very personable, pleasant and informative about the area. The outside of the house is old stone and looks very "Tuscan" while the inside is very modern with all needed faciities, geothermal green heating and cooling, and a good layout. Sara provides a notebook detailing important information about the area and intruction manuals for all appliances in both English and Italian.. The view is fantastic both from the living room, the bedrooms and the patio. It is very private. We would highly recommend it.

Our stay at Sara's house was extremely enjoyable. The home was very well appointed and worked well for our party of four. The view was amazing and the countryside beautiful.
Thank you Sara for the lovely apple cake your aunt made for us, it was delicious. We appreciated suggestions and booklet with information about the area and information on use of the appliances. We would certainly recommend your home for a place to rent in Tuscany.
Thank you

Very Nice Country Home
Well located home that was very well appointed, and surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Close proximity to both Siena and the Chianti Trail for day trips, yet isolated enough to enjoy the countryside. Great size for a group of 3, and could easily accommodate 4 or more. Sara, the owner/host was very helpful, and could not have been more accommodating. Local village was within walking distance, and included a nice restaurant, as well as bakery and grocery. For travelers requiring internet, note that the connection is limited, and data limits do apply. My only negative comment would be that there is an adjacent home that is being restored, and construction activity - including a large stationary crane - is very close to this property. Although daily workers were courteous, they were in close proximity, and definitely impacted the "isolated, country feel" of this home. I was also a bit put back that we were not informed of the adjacent construction prior to our arrival, and didn't realize it was going on until we saw the large construction crane behind the house. Note that without the wi-fi and construction issues, I would have given this property 5 stars.

Super spacious and gorgeous villa near Siena
We have super enjoyed our stay in Sara's house. It is spacious, wonderfully located for outdoor breakfasts/dinners (amazing views over the vinyards) and a great hub for sightseeing Tuscany.

Lovely house in quiet location
The house used to be the owner Sara's home and you can tell it is loved. The views from the house are amazing. The underfloor cooling system is great and means the house stays at a nice temperature even when it's hot outside. It was great to be able to pick herbs and strawberry's from the garden during our stay. You can walk into the village, but there isn't a great deal there, so you really need a car when staying here. Sara couldn't have been more helpful organising some taxis for us, and we knew she was on hand should we need anything. It was a lovely relaxing place to stay.

Amazing!
Le Redi is spectacular! We had a wonderful time in Sara's house. There wasn't anything we would have changed about our stay other than to stay longer. The house is fully equipped with everything you need. Sara was very welcoming, providing information for our stay. Sara, also a guide, took us on a tour through Siena. We were recommended Elisa from Chef at Home to come cook for us one night, again a amazing experience. I have and will recommend Le Redi to others. Look forward to making it back again!!!

Heaven on earth
Myself, partner, and two of our closest friends were
astounded by our stay in
this lovely and spacious,
and pristine chateau, overlooking the most glorious views of the countryside. We were instantly transported and transformed by our stay there, and if we hadn't an itinerary, we would have been content just to stay in this wonderful home and take in its beauty. All of our worries and
problems were left behind
and this home, its story,
and the countryside to behold cast its spell over us and we were bewitched. Sara and her sister, Irene, who own this magnificent "green" home were exceptionally warm and accommodating
and our only regret is that
we had to leave this sancturary of peace of mind and tranquility
