"It’s beautiful, relaxing .. love the cat - please make sure you feed the cat! She’s so sweet! "

"The apartment was perfect for the two couples to use as a based to explore Tuscony during our 2-week stay. The apartment was small but very comfortable and clean, with common areas to be together as well as separate spaces to have time apart. It had everything we required while we were there including a small but well outfitted kitchen, a washing machine to do laundry, comfortable beds, etc. Dinners were prepared several times in th kitchen and we had all the utensils, pots & pans, and great tools for making fine Italian meals. The surrounding area had many wineries ranging from "industrial scale" to small farms that grew other fruits and vegetables besides grapes and olives. We enjoyed the farm experiences that paired great food with their fine olive oils and wines. Our favorites were La Spinosa and Casa Emma. The location also allow us to easily visit Florence, Sienna, Greve, and even San Vincenzo for a day.Our host, Cindy, was a delight to work with on the reeervation. She was very responsive to our questions from the time of our booking to during the stay. A highlight of the trip was taking one of the cooking classes Cindy offers. We opted to travel to Florence for the class, which gave us an opportunity to join Cindy on the shopping trip to the local open-air marker for produce and shops for meats and wine. Cindy worked along side the 4 of us to craft a great Tuscon meal that we shared with Cindy and her husband, which was an exceptional treat. "

"The service"

"Amazing apartment. Super clean. Comfortable. Beautiful pool. Scenery was gorgeous. I’m an artist and I just stayed here and painted. There was a different painting out each window! Gabriella and her husband were very sweet. Tavernelle to your left when you exit. Barberino to your right. Both towns had restaurants and groceries and bakeries. Siena and Florence are both close. We were here for 10 days and it wasn’t enough. I would definitely return. "

"The house was amazing and so well kept with thoughtful touches throughout. "

"Great location, quiet, tidy and clutter free. Two separate apartments which was fine, but not clear on information online. "

"This is a beautiful, well maintained and well equipped property in a lovely location. The views and sunsets from the terrace are amazing. There are large ceiling fans in the living room and both bedrooms. The pool was perfect for cooling off in the heat. Filippo was most helpful with our questions. Thank you to Caterina and Marco also."

"Beautiful!"

"Our stay was excellent. Location, location, location. Small town atmosphere while within reach of anywhere you wanted to go in Tuscany. Sylvia was the best hostess! The “feel at home” stay after spending time touring Tuscany is second to none. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants to both tour Tuscany and feel like a local living in Tuscany at the same time. And the swimming pool was awesome. Absolutely perfect in each and every way!!!"
