Ein tolles Haus mit perfekter Gastgeberin!

We have stayed in the house for a week in August in 2021. The beautiful house is spacious (certainy for our family of four) and very well equipped. We ordered a dinner at arrival which Angela prepared and was the perfect start of the week. It was very hot that week (up to 40 degrees Celcius), but the airco kept the house and bedrooms at pleasant temperatures. We have visited the beautiful towns and cities of Vinci, Siena, Pisa, Florence, mostly later in the afternoon and evening due to the temperatures. It was our first time in Tuscany and we were also impressed by the beautiful andscape right outside the house. It was a perfect place from which to discover Tuscany

Stephania is a very caring host. As you step into the villa, you’ll notice the decor and the available amenities of the place is much like walking into a show room. Stephania does a great job ensuring each guest has a comfortable stay and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. This villa exceeds all expectations and more. This is one of the best.

We recently stayed at this property and thoroughly enjoyed it. The house has three floors and there are three bedrooms. My husband and I used just the main floor as we found this floor had the largest and brightest bedroom of the three. The main floor is very roomy and the kitchen is extremely well equipped with everything you need to make a meal. The owner generously supplied food items, such as bread, cereal, yogurt, milk and a bottle of wine. We found this to be a very thoughtful touch. The house is located in a very small town (San Quirico in Collina) so a car is definitely needed to get groceries. The closest town is Montespertoli and here we found a great Bar Pasticceria Fiorentina Caterina which had very good desserts. Since you are in the country there are a lot of mosquitoes outside but the owner supplies plenty of mosquito coils for use. Thank you Stefanie and Angela for a very nice stay and opening your house to us.

Es el sitio ideal, cerca de todo y en pleno campo. Después de visitar ciudades y lugares , lo mejor es sentarse en la terraza,o jardín, y tomarse algo mientras los niños están en la zona de juegos . Una casa con mucho gusto y encanto , con muchos detalles y todas las comodidades. Trato excepcional.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt in dem Haus sehr genossen. Die Ausstattung ist sehr gut, es hat an nichts gefehlt. Da die Woche eine Hitzewelle war, war die Vollklimitatiserung des Hauses ein Segen - jedes Schlafzimmer und Wohnzimmer sind mit einer individuell steuerbaren Anlage ausgestattet. Der Service von Angela und Stefania war sehr gut. Die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war angenehm, bis die letzten Details zur Anreise geklärt waren. Bei der Anreise wurden wir mit einer Flasche Wein und etwas für's Frühstück empfangen. Wir hatten ein Problem mit dem Toaster gemeldet, da der nicht richtig funktionierte, und prompt brachte Stefania am nächsten Tag einen neuen vorbei. Der Garten ist sehr klein. Man kann es aus den Fotos etwas erahnen. Es ist eine Sitzgruppe und ein Grill vorhanden. Beim Nachbarn ist gerade Baustelle. Die Mücken ermöglichten leider nicht, abends die Dämmerung zu genießen. Es sind im Haus zwar reichlich Mittel gegen Mücken auch für den Außenbereich vorhanden, aber das hält die lästigen Biester leider nicht ausreichend zurück. Das ist allerdings die Natur und man ist auf dem Land, also kein Mangel an der Unterkunft und wird man überall sonst auch so haben. Eine Empfehlung: Wir wollten eine Weinprobe machen und da ist auch immer das Problem mit dem Auto fahren. So haben wir uns entschlossen, zu der 1,5 entfernten Azienda Ammirabile zu gehen und uns dort für eine Weinprobe mit Mittagessen anzumelden. Wir hatten dort einen tollen Tag und durften mit den Gastgebern am Mittagstisch mit sitzen und haben uns prächtig unterhalten. Und natürlich den guten Wein auch gleich eingekauft. Im Ort selbst gibt es nicht viel. In Sichtweite ist das Castello Popilliano, das ein Besuch wert ist. Sonst gibt es einen kleinen Laden und einen guten Metzger. Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr wohl in dem Haus gefühlt. Alles ist in Ordnung und von gehobener Qualität. Wir können das Haus empfehlen.

This was the perfect location for our Tuscan getaway. A short drive to the train into Florence and a great launching point for our touring (only a 15 minute drive to the amazing Antinori Winery - a must see!). Angela was great in answering all my questions before we arrived and the house was completely stocked with food, spices and a nice welcome basket for my family. 2 bedrooms upstairs with a shared bathroom; main floor bedroom with private bathroom; and the kids loved being in the basement with 3 beds, their games area and another bathroom. Overall, the house was as advertised, very beautiful and very clean. We highly recommend this house! We were there in late June during a heat wave and the air conditioning worked wonderfully!

Dieses Ferienhaus entsprach im Großen und Ganzen den Vorstellungen, die wir uns aufgrund der Beschreibung gemacht hatten. Im Garten und vor allem auf dem Balkon im ersten Stock fehlten Sonnenschirme zum zusätzlichen Beschatten. Ansonsten waren die Räume, ganz besonders der Kellerbereich, angenehm kühl bei hochsommerlichen Temperaturen. Für Erkundungen und Ausflüge eignet sich dieses Haus sehr gut, denn die Nähe zu Florenz ist prima, aber auch bis an die Westküste ist es mit dem Mietwagen durchaus kein Problem. Der Ausblick auf das Castel Poppiano und in die nähere Umgebung ist einfach toll. Nach zweiwöchigem Aufenthalt bleibt nur zu sagen: sehr schön und sehr zu empfehlen!

Perfect in all aspects.

Maison spacieuse et bien équipée. Excellent accueil de la part d'Angela qui nous a apporté de précieux renseignements sur les visites de la région.

The place is very big and was very well stocked. It’s great for families. The owner was kind enough to leave us a celebration cake (we got married the night before) and a bottle of wine. Our only issues were that the upstairs and main level water pressure were very bad (the lower level shower was better), the lower level was very cold during the entire stay and we couldn’t find any tv stations in English (in the other places we stayed there were at least 2 channels in English.) The town is small but there are restaurants nearby and a small deli. The view is beautiful! Overall it’s a great place to stay in the Tuscan region!

Wir hatten dieses Haus als Familie mit 4 Personen für eine Woche gemietet. Es ist super toll ausgestattet. Es ist an alles gedacht, ob Duschbad, Handtücher, Bettwäsche, Spülutensilien etc. oder die Lebensmittel fürs erste Frühstück. Der Empfang von Angela war sehr herzlich. Wir hatten am ersten Abend ein Essen über Angela bestellt, das so reichhaltig und lecker war, dass wir noch die nächsten Tage den restlichen Käse essen konnten. :-) Der Ausblick vom Balkon ist sehr schön (Olivenhaine, Weinreben und das Schloss von Poppiano). Im Garten ist eine kleine Loungeecke, in der man abends noch einen Wein genießen oder grillen kann Wir sind mit dem Auto angereist und konnten von dort aus super die Gegend erkunden: Pisa, Lucca, Volterra, Siena und auch Florenz. Alles in allem kann man das Haus nur weiter empfehlen! Es lohnt sich!

The house is very nice, very well equiped and centrally located to make some nice visits in the beautiful area, such as Pisa, San Gimignano, Firenze, Siena etc. But also visit some of the very nice little villages in the direct neighboarhood.. Don’f forget to taste the local food and especially the wines, there are plenty of possibilities to enjoy. (We visited Antinori’s and their redtaurant; a real nice experience to explore the kitchen of Toscany 😉) We had a very warm welcome of Angela, explaining all the nice things to do in the area, and she was always available in case of questions. Toscany is in our hearts and we hate it to drive back to Belgium. We defenitely are planning to come back to Toscany real soon. Angela and Stefania, thank you for having us in your lovely house.

If you are traveling by car this is the home for you. It is well located for seeing Florence, Tuscany and the Hill Towns. The tram station for travel into Florence is a short 25 minute drive. This enables you to unwind in the beauty of the countryside after a day of crowds in Florence. The home is large, comfortable, well decorated with all of the necessary items for being an outstanding home away from home. We were given several options for special events. We chose to have a meal ready upon our arrival. Amazing food and the Italian hospitality from Angela was experience we will never forget. The was a small issue with a shower and Stefania was there in half hour.

We had a great time at the Holiday house in San Quirico in Collina. It was very clean and nicely decorated. There was a welcoming bottle of wine and fresh fruit and some breakfast items to get us started. There was a wonderful view from the 2nd floor terrace and a great spot to watch the sun set. The house is centrally located, so it allowed us to visit many different cities and hill towns. We highly recommend this property. Thank you Stefania for opening your home to our family and thank you Angela for your support during our stay.

We were so happy with our stay at San Casciano in Val di Pesa. The house was charming with very modern touches. The kitchen is well appointed and included salt, pepper, olive oil and spices (my husband is a chef so this was a great bonus for us!). In the village there is a small grocery to buy local meats, cheeses and breads. The small garden area was perfect for morning coffee and dining al fresco. Angela, our host, could not have been more helpful. We had a very trying travel day with numerous traffic accidents and delays making our arrival several hours later than planned. Angela made arrangements to meet us at a later time without complaint. She even stocked the refrigerator with supplies for breakfast, had fresh fruit on the counter and a bottle of wine for us which was much needed! The location was perfect for our day trips to Sienna, Pisa, Florence and Lucca. If you are interested in food and wine Angela can give you some fantastic suggestions. She helped us book a day with a local truffle hunter which was one of our favorite experiences in Italy.

On many previous rentals we have been disappointed as the property did not live up to the details presented however this was not the case on this holiday, the property had everything we had hoped for and more. sometimes little things can make a difference and although they seem trivial can make a good holiday experience a great one. Angela and Stefania were friendly and helpful, and when we encountered a small issue it was resolved straightaway. The view from the balcony should be bottled and sold as it was a great way of spending an evening enjoying the sun set over the fields. I would highly recommend this property. Thank you Angela and Stefania

Owner fully stock the place with everything you need for a comfortable stay including milk, juice, coffee, tea, snacks, spices for cooking, soap, shampoo...etc. The place is a 3 floor house in a very small non-characteristic village. But it situated high enough to have good view of grape vines and distance castle. I would not call it a villa, it is a house. There are plenty spaces but spread among 3 floors, therefore rooms and living spaces are a bit small, except the basement family room which is very spacious. There were 6 of us, 3 adults and 3 teenagers, and if we are all together in the living room and dinning room area, it feels a bit crowded. kitchen equipment are new with induction hot plates, adequate supplies of pots and pans. Air conditioner works well, we needed it since it was 34C outside. Laundry is very convenient with detergent supplied. The stairs for the 3 floors is a bit narrow, it sure give you a good work out. Parking inside the gate. Very convenient location to visit neighboring sights, easy access to motor ways. There is a very good restaurant "Buzzanca" in the small village. Negatives- electric circuit is limited, if you turn on high in more than one burner, it will not function, can be frustrating. If you turn on a few electric equipment at the same time, you will kick the breaker. Water faucets have some kind of restrictor on them and will splash all over. You will get totally wet no matter how careful you try when you wash dishes or wash your face. There is no screen for the door to terrace for the upstair bedroom, so can't really enjoy the terrace. Lots of mosquitos. There is an out door area that one can sit, but it has the neighboring cats all over the area and plenty of bugs, one can not peacefully enjoy. Only 1G data of WiFi a day, with 3 adults and 3 teenagers, we went over many times, difficult to control - may be some kind of warning when 1G has been used up. Overall, it serve well for our purpose.

Super comfortable house for our family of four since it has 3 floors. The kids were very happy with the bottom floor where they have their own space to chill and watch movies or play games after a long day walking in the streets of Florence The house was well provisioned with plenty of food for the first night and breakfast so no need to look for a supermarket at the beginning We had a great time and it really felt warm and cozy as home

The villa was so modern and clean, it had all the amenities you need for a great vacation. This place was bright and spacious and the perfect accommodations for our family of 6. The location is outside of Florence and in the middle of wine country. Angela made it very easy to reserve the house from the U.S. and she gave us very useful tips to visit Rome, Florence and the surrounding areas. It is the perfect rental for a vacation in Tuscany!

We had a great time waking up to the beautiful views from the upstairs balcony. After sightseeing in Florence, or in the Chianti area, we ended the day the same way we started. The property offers great amenities with a very attentive property manager. I cannot say enough about the property manager. It was a wonderful experience. I recommend asking the property manager about the chef service at the property. The meals and the service were impeccable. We drove the car to the train station for sightseeing in Florence. Thanks for a great time and wonderful memories!

Great location to tour Tuscany and easy to get to Florence. The apartment is immaculate with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Grocer down the street with meat, cheese and wine to enjoy while watching the sun set over the hills from the upstairs balcony. Gated parking for one vehicle made parking easy.
