We had an absolute perfect time at this remote, gorgeous house! The views are stunning and the home is centrally located to many Tuscan highlights. And the hosts were lovely. We very much recommend.
If you want to get away to a beautiful Tuscan home, this is the place. We had everything we needed for our stay here. We had breakfasts here and intended to cook a few evening meals, but those plans didn't always work out. The hosts are very responsive and we didn't have any issues. I am already missing this lovely place! I highly recommend your stay here!
The owners will have to meet you at the church as the first time the house is difficult to find but the home is actually perfectly located to visit the main towns of Firenze and Sienna plus all of the Chianti region. Equipped with everything you need, Enrico and his family are delightful and very helpful. Thank you. We will stay on again on our next visit.

Marta and Her Family Provided a 5 Star Tuscan Experience
My family and I could not have been happier with our experience here. Marta and her family provided us with everything we needed (restaurants, wineries, site seeing and how to get around the property). The hot tub was an absolute delight especially in the winter. One of the nights we stayed in and watched Under the Tuscan Sun that they had ready in the DVD player for us. It was an absolute pleasure. We can't wait to come back again.
We really enjoyed our stay here. Enrico and Marta were very nice and showed us around when we first arrived. The house was completely ours and it was beautifully furnished and clean. It has a great kitchen and living area and the bedrooms were large with air conditioning. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept on. The highlight is the back terrace where you can enjoy breakfast and dinner while listening to the birds and enjoying the peace and quiet of the countryside. This was one of the best places we have ever stayed in Italy....very highly recommended!!

Idyllic house for a quiet Tuscan getaway
We drove to the nearby village and were met by Marta and Enrico, who showed us the way to the house and took the time to show us everything we needed. They also provided some welcoming food and wine to start our holiday off in fine style.
The house is charming and was plenty big enough for us and our two teenage daughters. During the day, whichever direction the sun is shining from, there is always a place to sit either in the sun or in the shade. When it gets very hot a quick dip in the jacuzzi is very refreshing. We went in the height of summer and inside the house was comfortably cool despite the record temperatures outside.
It is a 15 minute drive to Figline Valdarno where there are supermarkets, restaurants, shops and a fabulous ice cream parlour. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and there are a number of charming towns and villages to explore in the Chianti region. There are regular train services to Florence if you wish to partake of a little culture, but much of the time we were happy to relax in peace and tranquillity.
Sadly, we could only stay a week before having to get back to work and school, but we would happily have stayed for much longer. Thank you Marta and Enrico for sharing your lovely house!
Ruim huis met tuin en terrassen, fraai gelegen aan het einde van een onverharde weg door de heuvels in het hart van Toscane.
Vriendelijke, gastvrije eigenaren.
Travel is about many things: learning and understanding new cultures and – importantly – reflecting upon one’s own; delighting in new languages; meeting new people; staying in a relaxing location; and refreshing one’s curiosity about life.
‘La Tacherina’ is a beautiful, warm, homey spot high in the Tuscan Hills. Enrico and his daughter Marta are beautiful, warm, human beings. They are both absolutely delightful to deal with and very clearly love their home and want you to enjoy it to the full.
La Tacherina is about a 15-minute drive up the hillsides through Gavile – with its 1000 year-old church – and onward. What begins as a narrow country road becomes a really narrow back road, and then becomes a really, really, narrow dirt road, but, eventually, home hoves into sight and two very excited dogs bark out a welcome! Excited, because the hamlet wherein one finds La Tacherina is but four houses and countless olive and fig trees.
Enrico showed us around and we were greeted with a bowl piled high with local strawberries, a bottle of Chianti, an Easter cake, Easter eggs, dried salami and a basket of breadsticks. Our welcome extended to a greeting from ‘Felice’ – the resident outdoor cat [our name for him]. He may be fed at your own discretion and he is the most well-behaved feline we have ever met. Gracious, appreciative and largely content with his own company. Oh, and he loves sleeping in the olive tree overhanging one of the patios.
The ‘home’ – which it is and is distinctly not a ‘house’ – is a lovely two-story building, renovated in 2001 from an old coach house. Upstairs has two bedrooms, a bathroom with shower and spectacular views. Downstairs is a large area comprising a living room, dining room, second bathroom also with shower, and a good-sized kitchen. The place is well equipped although it does not have an oven, although you could use the BBQ outside.
One day the neighbouring children peeked through the fence and their grandmother appeared with a basket of freshly laid eggs for us. We returned the favour with a chocolate Easter bunny and chocolate eggs. Rarely have we seen a more appreciative audience – the children were positively giddy with joy!
It should be added that we were joined by two close friends who had never visited Italy and La Tacherina touched off their love affair. All in all, a fabulous place with wonderful hosts. We experienced Tuscany with its delightful charm, thanks again, Enrico & Marta!
We have been received very hospitabe by Marta and her father.
When we arrived at the house there were drinks and hors d oeuvres that made us feel very welcome.
The house was cosy, comfortable and obviously decorated with love.
The garden was well taken care of with olive trees and a fige tree and amazing fews from almost all terraces.
Every evening we jumped into the jaccuzzi.... With the risk of getting a fige on our head or in the water !
At daytime there was a lot to see and to discover in our surroundings. Every curve in the little roads in the moutains showed us a spectaculair few and we enjoyed all the little villages and the winegards.
Great chance we will come back to this house next year !

Very nice!
We very much enjoyed our stay. Marta was responsive to our emails and questions. The surroundings are beautiful and quiet and off the beaten path, which we liked; Figline is close by to purchase groceries. The location is perfect for day trips to Assisi and Siena with beautiful scenery on the rural roads through the Arezzo and Chianti areas.

Loved this little Gem
Thank you for everything.
From helping us find our way to you county home , the detail to get around the area, the wine and the limoncello.
The place was a little bit hard to find and we were very thankful that Enrico and Marta were able to help us locate the home.
Thank you again for the olives, wine and fruit. Wish we could have stayed longer in the area there was so much to see.
Ciao,
Michael and Charlotte Smith
We really enjoyed the solitude of Enrico’s country house and were welcomed with great hospitality. Its rural setting with 280 degree terrace surrounded by fig, olive, and diverse fruit trees is a refreshing change from city life. Owner’s tips about regional wine, olive oil, and shopping were very helpful.

Beautiful, immaculate house in stunning countryside
The house is beautiful, it has been sympathetically restored and was spotlessly clean. It is a house that feels loved! Everything had been thought of, you open a drawer and there are tissues or sachets of shampoo, lavender bags, little soaps, sun cream and so on. The surrounding countryside is stunning, you can’t hear a road, there are turtle doves, nightjars and owls calling in the evenings. The hot tub is an added bonus and does freshen you up. Plenty of parking too and all feels very private. The property is accessed by a single width track, which I takes some getting used to but well worth it, would definitely stay here again. Marta and Enrico are very friendly and did everything to ensure we had a fantastic stay
