We had a great stay here. The house was bigger than we thought and the outdoor area was wonderful for dinners. We all loved the pool area. Overall location is so convenient for Siena and exploring the countryside. Simone and Francesca were incredibly helpful with recommendations. Would stay here again!

A GEM!
This property is exactly as pictured. Exceptionally clean. The hosts, Simone and Francesca were very helpful offering information about restaurants and grocery stores in the area. Also, we had several questions before arriving and they were answered very quickly. The pool was a wonderful treat after a day of site seeing. Our family had a fabulous time.

Magical property in the heart of Tuscany
Our group of four – me, a friend and my two teenage sons – had a wonderful stay at this magical property. The pictures honestly don’t do justice to the sweeping views and the pristine condition of this four-bedroom villa in a multi-home compound. Yes, I said four bedrooms, which are pictured here even though the listing only says there are three. That was a nice surprise so my children didn’t have to share. It’s also a great spot in central Tuscany to tour much of the region. We also so very much appreciated the owner accommodating us when we had two things go wrong – first, I landed in the hospital when we scheduled our original trip so we had to postpone at the last minute. And then travel mishaps when we finally made it had us arriving many hours later than we anticipated, after 10p. So all to say, wonderful host and a special spot I never wanted to leave.

Fantastic great value location and property
This property was perfect, it actually has more beds than we expected so you could bring a bigger family. It's two floors with a downstairs basement that stays cool.
The outside area by the apartment is lovely, three different private areas for eating, lounging and sitting, with good shade and sun depending what you want.
The pool is perfect, really nice quality with almost infinity pool vibe where the water is perfectly level. There are a couple of neighbour villas which gave a bit of atmosphere but people generally kept to themselves so it still felt private. The pool temperature was perfect, cool yet comfortable. We spent nearly half the holiday relaxing and reading by the pool while the kids played for hours. The hosts were pleasant and helpful. Everything about the property was great, and near Siena.
We travelled all over tuscany, from pisa to florence to pienza, so a great central base if you want to explore the region.
The only downside was, other than siena, quite limited on nearby places to explore, you couldn't really walk anywhere worth visiting, but there is a decent supermarket 5min drive away and a couple of quality restaurants nearby.

Immaculate property
Friendly welcome. Everywhere is immaculate inside and out. Well equipped and very comfortable. Good sized pool area with loungers and parasols all in good condition. In front of villa was a bbq, a large very comfortable seating area with large parasol and a separate dining area. There was also an inner courtyard with pizza oven.
The villa is in easy reach of Siena and good for a week’s stay.
The owners clearly care so much and want their guests to be comfortable.
A car is needed.
