“This place was exactly what we wanted — a historic villa in the Tuscan countryside. The house was easy to find, and it is gorgeous — lovingly appointed and maintained. There are hints of its history, including a magical attic room with volumes of reference books. There are many cute towns and wineries in easy driving distance. Our hosts were amazing, responding immediately to any questions or needs. We all wished I had booked a longer stay. Highly recommend!”

“We had an incredible stay at this Tuscan villa over the Christmas holidays with a group of 10, and the home was perfect in every way. The villa was spacious, comfortable, and ideal for a large group. Caterina and her sister Cecilia were exceptionally responsive, warm, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Caterina truly went above and beyond with our requests—it genuinely felt like having a five-star hotel concierge at our disposal. The pizza class and in-home dining experience were……

“Niccolo was a great host and was easy to communicate with prior to the trip. House was spacious and clean and the property was beautiful. We took advantage of the cooking class with Barbara (extra cost) and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Only suggestion would be to rent a car- getting cabs/rideshare to and from was a challenge although we were able to walk 20 min to the train station”

“Everything about this house is exquisite and very homey. Decors are really tasteful. Outdoors spaces and the views are absolutely beautiful. Kitchen is really well appointed. There is no shortage of dish-wear, silverware and glasses. Location is very central to explore Tuscany. Our host, Lapo is very welcoming and helpful with all recommendations. He is the kind of host that you want to stay in touch and come back to see him. ”

“This place is magical!!!!! The host was amazing and so communicative - readily available on the property and was able to answer questions as well as drive us to get food in town and to the train station! Ample space for guests and the property is beautiful. The pool area is great and comes with fun floats / fun activities for near the pool. The ambiance of the outdoor dining area is lovely and the check in/out process was easy. Couldn’t recommend this place more!!!”

“Pros: La estancia en la casa fue muy bonita. Estaba cerca de Florencia, Siena, Sant Gimigano, etc. Viajamos toda la familia y los propietarios fueron muy acogedores. La piscina es un sitio perfecto para relajarse y bañarse después de ver la Toscana. Nuestros hijos y sobrinos jugaron porque tenían de todo. La casa muy equipada y limpia con televisión en todas las habitaciones. Los propietarios además nos ayudaron con un pequeño contratiempo que tuvimos. Nos sentimos como en casa, muchas……

“Our stay in Florence at this villa was absolutely delightful. Chiara was incredibly welcoming, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The location just above the city offers the perfect balance of tranquility, beauty, and comfort. The house is immaculately maintained with sophisticated design touches and very clean. The views of the hills are breathtaking! It's a shame we didn't have time to take advantage of the breakfast and dinner menu or a cooking class, but it will definitely be……

“We had a wonderful time at Villa Ancora. From the time I booked Antonella (our host) was so engaged and friendly. She met us at the property and made sure we had everything we needed. She gave us great advice on local markets, restaurants and ideas to make the most of our vacation. We enjoyed every aspect of the beautiful property from the cozy beds to the well-appointed kitchen, the stunning view and comfortable pool area. ”

“Very good location for a home with parking. It was great for our rental car because parking around Siena is very difficult. And a quick walk to the historic city center. The home is well appointed and spotless with great views to the east over Tuscan hills. The host communication. The only thing to be mindful of is there is no air conditioning. They have fans in all the bedrooms, which help a lot, but we underestimated how hot it would be in July.”

“The Villa was charming and absolutely bursting with character. We loved exploring the house and the grounds! It was quiet and relaxing, but still only a short drive from Florence, Sienna, San Gimignano and other favorite towns of Tuscany. A memorable stay in an absolutely unique villa!”
