Our stay at Gallo Nero was absolutely delightful. Before our trip, Daniel was incredibly helpful in planning our stay, promptly answering all my questions and offering excellent suggestions. He never once made me feel like I was a bother. A few days before our arrival, Annie and her team set up a WhatsApp group for seamless communication. This was incredibly useful for receiving real-time updates and sharing information. The villa itself was just as beautiful as it appeared in the photos, clean, and spacious enough for our group of six adults and two children. We loved chatting with our neighbours in the nearby villas and exploring the picturesque vineyards. There's plenty to see and do in the area, with breathtaking scenery and delicious restaurants just a short distance away. The only minor suggestion I would make is to include a more comprehensive kitchen setup for guests who prefer to cook in. Items like oven mitts, tea towels, food storage containers, and kitchen wrap would be helpful. Daniel was very receptive to this feedback and assured me that he would be adding these items to the villa immediately. I would highly recommend Gallo Nero to anyone seeking a spacious and comfortable villa for their vacation

Amazing location and views. Wished it had air-conditioning. Nicely located to Florence and Siena. Amazing for wine enthusiasts. We had a 5 night stayover on our European vacation and this was the highlight of our trip.

The property was perfect for the four of us and we had plenty of room for more. It was picturesque with lovely neighbors. We drove to nearby towns and villages during the day and everything was convenient with great restaurants within 15 minutes. The kitchen was well equipped for our cooking needs and we enjoyed meals inside and in the huge patio. It was a wonderful experience and we look forward to returning.

We felt fully immersed in the Tuscan countryside. The stone tower was just as described and we were able to truly get the feel of the rolling hills of Chianti. Bedrooms were big and comfortable. It’s rustic… but we fully enjoyed our stay. Upper levels were bright and sunny. Kitchen area was a bit too dark for my liking but overall a great place to experience. Had trouble with the washer, but Annie fixed it for us, and then dried and folded the clothes for us, and returned them back to the place. Wonderful customer service!

This was our first stop on our visit to Italy. What a way to start a trip. The little village, the views of olive trees, vineyards, fruit trees, and rolling hills were all so picturesque. We travelled to different hill towns during the day and enjoyed sitting on the terrace, sipping wine and soaking up the atmosphere in the late afternoons and evenings. We really enjoyed our stay. Communication before and during our stay was prompt and friendly. We have to give a shout out to the nearby restaurant, Pizza Pie. Great pizza and great service.

Wow, what can I say? The villa itself and the location were outstanding. You cannot find a better place to enjoy Tuscany and the small towns sprinkled throughout. There are lots of great restaurants and wineries nearby and the sunsets and sunrises over the vineyards and hills were amazing. I would easily give the villa itself 11 out of 10 stars! The management of the property, however, was...fussy. As mentioned in other reviews, there are extra charges that aren't outlined super clearly (or outlined at all) in the listing, such as the hot tub, internet, and gas. Be warned that you will undoubtedly end up paying something for gas (even if you don't use the heat) as the gas used for hot showers and cooking adds up. Cooking essentials (like olive oil), TP, garbage bags, dishwasher tabs, body wash/shampoo/conditioner are not included. Luckily, we were able to use some of what previous guests had left behind. Directions for parking were not clear (and we bore the brunt of someone very angry that we had parked in the wrong place) and although I know the villa is part of a working winery and oilery with a restaurant (or maybe two?), it wasn't very clear how to take advantage of those amenities. But...if you can get past those small annoyances, you will love your stay here!

This villa was just perfect For my family. We loved the old stone and wood architecture and the full authenticity of the stay. The location is extraordinary with wineries and olive groves in every direction. We were very close to Siena for the Palio and popped into Tuscany a couple times. Nearby Radda (8 minutes by car) is full of adorable shops and great restaurants and there were additional local dining options run by families and full of fresh ingredients and hospitality. This villa is in the middle of a very small and charming village and the buildings all around a steeped in history. It is a special spot for sure.

Nous étions entre amis pour l'Eroica. Charmant petit hameau d'accès facile. Un peu loin de Gaiole pour le faire à vélo surtout après les 209k (ça monte fort). Maison "toscane" charmante très bien tenue. Wifi, parking facile, jacuzzi (non utilisé).
