Great summer break in Tuscany - July 2020
We were a group of 7 and rented all 4 rooms in the building. We loved the private, remote location and the outdoor areas - such as the covered seating area next to the grill and games on the lawn! The pool is huge and especially deep! Claudia takes great care of it (we could not find the special sun tan cream that she recommended - for some reason our normal sun tan lotions caused white swimming costumes to go yellow in places). Thankfully I read a review about the mosquitoes so we came well prepared with mozzie vapour devices for the rooms and insect repellent to spray on - even in the mornings! I missed noticing that there is no dishwasher available, but this at least gave the kids a learning opportunity! We can highly recommend the “Le Vecchie Cantine” restaurant in Chianni and ,if you want to go to the sea, the Spiagge Bianche beach near Vada is a great white beach to visit with lots of parking. Many thanks for a wonderful holiday...!

A perfect Tuscan retreat
I hired the whole villa for my family of 4 as we wanted privacy and that's exactly what we got. The villa is incredibly gorgeous, with everything you could possibly need, the views are spectacular and Claudia and Enrico are superb hosts. Claudia cooked an evening meal and breakfast for us when we arrived, we have not stopped talking about how delicious it was! I misunderstood the dynamics of the villa and didn't realise that my children (9 and 12yrs) would have their own apartment, with kitchen and their own front door key! My children were thrilled with this but I was apprehensive with them locking themselves in their rooms at night and me not being able to get in. Claudia quickly resolved this by getting me an extra set of keys cut to put my mind at ease! To be honest though, it was just me overreacting as the villa is extremely secluded and gated! The pool is simply fantastic, deep enough to dive in with plenty of loungers. We didn't leave the villa for days on end, it was a perfect way to relax. One thing that you must realise when booking this property is that it's deep in the countryside so you must expect lots of wildlife, which mostly for us was a delight with birds, lizards, deer, hedgehogs and donkeys but obviously lots of mosquitos. We were bitten quite a lot and Claudia gave us a mosquito net which did help. I would highly recommend you are prepared for this though. In the UK, when my children see a fly or bee in the garden, they go running inside, in Tuscany however there is no getting away from it and after a day or so I found them completely ignoring anything that flew their way! Definitely did them the world of good. I cannot recommend this villa enough, definitely our best holiday ever!!

Beautiful retreat in the heart of Tuscany
An absolutely stunning property with gracious hosts. Centrally located within 35 minutes to the train station in Pontedera, and within 1 to 2 hours of Cinque Terre, Lucca, Volterra, Mediterranean beaches, and Florence. It is a beautiful spot!

Tuscan Paradise
Travelling as a party of 6 for my fathers 60th birthday, we all feel privileged to have been able to share this Tuscan paradise with Claudia and her husband, who were truly fantastic hosts. Wonderful views, food and great tips on things to do - we really didn't want to leave!!

Wonderful, family trip.
Beautiful house and view. Hospitable and helpful. Comfortable and hot showers. WiFi in the common area (not in the rooms). Use google maps satellite to find. Laundry is available but not in the room. We stayed here with 2 kids and it was very family friendly. Claudia and Enriqo were wonderful!

Quiet and enchanting, garden of eden, with a pool ! Tuscan perfection.
We stayed for one week, sharing the facility with another family of friends. We had the domain to ourselves. The house and the garden are beautiful, perfectly tended. It's extremely peaceful (the house is way down a little path that goes through a tuscan wood. No neighbours at all) The view on the tuscan hills from the wintergarden is gorgeous, From the bedrooms and the main living space, the view in on the garden only, but it's still lovely. Claudia and Enrico are charming. They live on the property so you can ask them questions if you need but you will still feel like you're on your own. It's very private (if you rent the whole place, which we did. I don't think we would have liked to share with strangers though). They have cats and dogs but you barely see them. The pool was the perfect size for kids to swim and adults to refresh, always clean, with lovely flower surroundings. The tiny and charming town of Chianni is the place to go to get fresh bread, gelatis, delicious Italian meats and cheeses, oil, fruits etc. I highly recommend this wonderful home for your next family vacation. (wifi only works in wintergarden, which is very nice if you actually want to vacation and not watch your phone!)

Wunderschöne Location
Für unsere Familie mit 7 Personen war das Haus, dass in 3 einzelne Wohnungen aufgeteilt ist, perfekt geeignet. Der große Pool wurde zwei mal am Tag gereinigt und von uns sehr intensiv genutzt. Es waren ausreichend Liegen und Sonnerschirme vorhanden. Der Garten war sehr gepflegt. Die Aussicht ist sensationell. Die Outdoor Küche war toll, aber klein und hat auch keinen Kühlschrank. Insgesamt können wir die Unterkunft durchaus empfehlen.
