All of the great things you read in the reviews are true. This place is simply amazing and is the perfect base for exploring the region. You have supermarkets and excellent restaurants within 10 min driving, and wineries and hot springs within an hour. Really, no point to stay in Siena.

The house is set in a very quiet place and in the middle of the green, Mrs. Lucia and her husband are very helpful and friendly people. Interior and exterior house curate. Thank you

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us, you were fantastic hosts! Lucia and her husband were attentive and very helpful. Even when the summer hot sun was full blast, they found extra fans to cool us down! If you ever come to Chicago in USA you'll have to stay with us in our home!

The house is beautiful and has everything you need for beautiful and very comfortable holiday. Thanks to the cordial hosts for this beautiful day. We like to come again.

A lovely home and super friendly owners. The photos don't do it justice as it's so much better once you are there. There is a lot of space inside with a lot of small details and decorations that give it that special home feel. Around the house there is a lot of space and green with the pool just in front. It was a bit too cold to try it out but it looked very tempting. Perfect place to just chill out and if you have kids they'll have a ton of space to run around and play.

The residence of the herds there loved it because it is a very large well-kept house furnished with large fitted clean taste in detail and especially in a strategic position to visit plus we are also able to go to sea in one of the days of our stay

We stayed a week at Le Mandrie. The house is nicely furnished with a wonderful pool with stones. Sandro and Lucia are very helpful and welcoming. The villa is close to the stunning city of Siena, We strongly recommend Le Mandrie for people who want to rest on the Tuscany countryside. Thank you Lucia and Sandro

It's nice and quiet, very modern and exceptionally clean and homey. Good location too.

Fantastic B & B !!!! A warm welcome, a nice clean room and the icing on the cake really a pool in a beautiful setting! The good breakfast is gargantuan and delicious. I would not hesitate if I were to go on holiday to book again!

A beautiful place with extraordinary staff.

Wonderful place, simple but nice rooms. The restaurant Il Grillo Moro is great and very affordable. Be sure to make a reservation as it was full every day of our stay, mostly locals. Staff is very friendly and easy to work with. Place can be a bit hard too find the first time, it's actually between Sovicille and Ampugnano.

Emanuele was a perfect hostess and very helpful. The location was wonderful and peaceful. The restaurant of the owner was fantastic and the employes were very kind!

Prenotato velocemente, mentre eravamo in autostrada, ci siamo ritrovati in un posto molto bello, camera spaziosa molto pulita con tutti i confort, Emanuele è un host paziente, gentile pronto a dare consigli e ad aiutarti in caso di necessità. Nella stessa struttura si trova un ottimo ristorante dove si mangia molto bene. Insomma sicuramente da tornarci. Grazie di tutto

The place is simply incredible, the factory where the apartment is located is magical and you feel like you are going back in time several centuries. We loved every minute there. The place itself was impeccably clean and very cozy. You do need a car to go there but the drives to popular towns like Siena or Montalcino are beautiful. Siena is about 40 minutes away and Montalcino (in the opposite direction from Siena) a little over an hour, so the place is located pretty much in the middle of a beautiful area to explore. If you want shorter drives, Sovicille which is quite near is lovely, there's the church and the abby at San Galgano about 15 minutes away, we did a small walk in the forest in the path in Ponte della Pia, etc, etc. I don't think I can express by writing how beautiful and special the place is. Last but not least, Davide, host extraordinaire, is as pleasant of a host and a person as you'll ever meet. I give our stay a rating of 6 stars out of 5.

The accommodation is very clean and equipped with everything you need. The quiet evenings in front of the house invite you to relax. And if you sit a bit longer, you can even glow fireflies. From LeReniere you can reach almost all excursion destinations in Tuscany in about 1.5 h. Highly recommended is a personal wine tasting with the host.

A nice place to discover Tuscany and its beauties. Hosting Davide was beyond our expectations and we will be happy to see us here or at home! The cottage is equipped as it should and we could ask Davide when needed. We highly recommend this little corner in the Tuscan countryside to nature lovers!

This is one of those few places where owners put their soul into every little detail - be it decorations of the house or its surroundings - and do their best to make you feel absolute comfort. Davide not only provided literally everything we asked for (we were travelling with a 3-month old child), but even before we arrived, he added his personal touch to the Christmas decorations of this wonderful place and presented us a welcome set of Italian delicacies and his own wine. Which is by the way very good. I'm sure, he has heard this a lot- the photos do not show how great is the house and the surroundings. Thank you again, Davide and Giuseppe!

David and his colleague were available and very kind, they even got a bottle of their wine! The place is gorgeous and the house cozy and very pretty, with all the amenities! Ideal for hide away in the countryside but still be close to the beautiful Siena! Year to be redone!

Davide greeted us on arrival with enthusiasm and friendliness. He provided us with numerous recommendations for food and activities, which turned out to be spot on. Davide and his property couldn't have made our honeymoon stop anymore special. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We were so sad to leave Davide's place -- we had the best time there and wanted to stay. The cottage is just as described and pictured; that is, magical. It's secluded but still close enough to nearby towns. We ended up enjoying some local restaurants, but also stocked up at the grocery store and cooked several of our own meals and found the kitchen remarkably well-equipped (including with the farm's own olive oil, yum!). Davide was a wonderful host -- he even prepared a survival kit of essentials (water, pasta, cookies, tea) in case we arrived late and hungry and couldn't make it to the store for supplies. He also gave us a great tour of the vineyards and farm, concluding in a very special tasting, and experience that was a highlight of our trip. When we return to Italy, we wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Thank you, Davide!

Staying at Davide's farm was the highlight of our 4 week trip to France and Spain. This facility could be a tour in itself. Davide explained that the oldest of the structures was built in the 11th century and the rest added on the in succeeding years. The place is reasonable drive to many hill towns in Tuscany and having car is a must. The unit is first class with all the amenities and is very comfortable. Davide is a great host and even gave us a bottle of wine excellent wine from his vineyard. When we return to the area we will definitely stay here.

Our stay in Marina's apartment was above all our expectations. The place is wonderfully located in the hills west of Siena, with abundant area both inside and outside the flat: large rooms, equipped kitchen, and - the most enticing of all - patios and sitting areas outside the flat which offer unbelievable quiet and serenity, with fantastic views towards Siena and the surrounding countryside, forests and valley. The photos cannot adequately show the beauty of the location - it is hard to do so; one just has to come to experience it. The location is perfect, allowing day trips around Tuscany and Umbria. Leonardo and Marina made special efforts to make sure we arrived properly (one needs a car), and were helpful hosts. We look forward to coming back for another serene week at this accommodation - hopefully soon!

We loved to stay here! Beautiful garden where you feel comfortable and had enough privacy. The appartement itself was clean and cosy, and had everything you need. Leonardo was a lovely host! We didn't want to go home. Thanks for everything! Note: There where a lot of cats in this garden so watch out if you're allergic.

We loved our stay in sovicille, so much so that we extended our stay the moment we walked through the door. The apartment is very well equipped with everything you need, martina and Leonardo are fantastic hosts and lovely people. We would deffinately recommend staying here!

The site is remarkable with stunning views of the Tuscan countryside is quiet, charming and our hosts, very respectful of our quiet and very accessible, the apartment is perfect with the pergola allows lunch and dinner outside. this property has far exceeded our expectations. The geographical location of the rental allows to visit the day Siena and Florence, the Chianti wine cellars. You just drive down to Sovicille for shopping; you can easily find local products sold by as welcoming as the friendly people, it was a super nice even magical stay, we highly recommend this site and came away very satisfied.

The view was fantastic! It was lovely and quiet, the bbq was excellent, and the house was well stocked with the things you would need. It was clean and tidy. We drove by motorbike and the closest "big" supermarket was about 10minutes which has anything you needed, but there is a huge coop near sienna so we recommend you go there if you can. There were many cats and kitten on the premises as well which we loved. The small side notes are that there are a few mozzies, some beez in summer around so bring your repellant, and the wifi only works in the bedroom and lounge room. There is also a washing machine in the cupboard but we didn't see it until we were about to leave. However... The view! If you want a real Tuscan experience, you can't get much better than this.

Very well located, quiet country house in de Maremma. Approximately 20 min to Siena. Well equipped (kitchen, etc.), comfortable for four people. Pleasant, sympathetic reception. Minor problems are solved quickly. to receive wireless currently available only in living room and bedroom.

Marina is a lovely host and her accommodation is very nice with a great view.

Located fifteen minutes from Siena, high in the middle of a forest, the home of Marina and Leonardo is very charming, clean and quiet with a view of Siena. The hosts are friendly and very available.

We immediately, had excellent contact Helen is a charming and attentive host, victuals were waiting in the fridge and some vegetables from his garden. This is a quiet, bucolic away from the crowds of tourists. It was in our eyes, the ideal place as a starting point for exploring Tuscany. The lodge is rustic but functional, with shower, toilet, kitchenette, quite retro but sufficient. Here one is going virtual, we resource and enjoy nature ... no TV, wifi and that's fine. I recommend it to lovers of nature and authenticity. Guard against mosquitoes in summer.

We had a real great time at Helen's place, located in a lovely tiny village in the heart of Tuscany countryside. Half an hour driving to Siena, 50 minutes to San Giminiano. Helen's a great host, she recommended us some places to visit and good restaurants around. The studio is clean and tidy, well-furnished and close to gardens and forest. Perfect to run away from the crowd of Florence!

If you want to live off the beaten track and get away from the city lights this will be an ideal pits top Helen was very helpful and made our stay a very pleasant one.

Amazing space in the tiny town of Tonni, about an hour's drive from the main towns (Siena, Montepulciano, Montalcino). The space is minimal and small, but is a perfect cottage for budget travelers wanting a "true" Tuscan experience. You are surrounded by nature and wildlife -- truly a beautiful little town. Helen was an amazing host and she provided us with everything we needed, including bread and homemade jam!

Helen was always helpful and proactive, suggesting activities and events in the surrounding area. rustic house, yet also very welcoming, surrounded by nature. strategic location for trips in the surrounding area (Siena, San Galgano and all the little towns nearby). binding machine. perfect stay to recharge and unwind from the city routine. Highly recommended!

We were very good, the place is very nice and the hostess very nice and cozy house!

A quiet place, lost in the woods, soothing and relaxing. Helen is friendly and helpful, she advised us very nice places nearby.

Helen is a lovely and amazing host and person. She warmly welcomed us into her place and accommodated us with more than we expected. The house is located in a lovely village which allowed us to enjoy the beautiful surroundings as well as travel around Tuscany with ease. The apartment is very cozy and beautiful and it also comes with an awesome new bed!!

Quiet, Family Friendly accommodation with a massive garden to relax in. Supermarket at 5 minutes drive. Lovely host and his family to look after us. We wanted to go to a quiet beach for a day out and were guided to find the perfect one! Breakfast lovely as well customised to our diet restrictions. We reached really late on the night of check in, Francesco greeted us and helped as if was day. Central location for us to go to the beach, Rome, Florence, Pisa and Venice. Must have a car though to get in and out!

What can I say? Francesco and Cécilia are two of the kindest persons on this planet! I had a wonderful time! The apartment is even prettier than the pictures, and the garden offers plenty of space to relax. If you are looking for THE perfect spot to adventure Siena and Tuscany, this is it!

Francesco, Ceci and Matilde were greats hosts. They have an amazing place really close to Siena. I will definitely go back to stay with them again.

What a gem in Tuscany! I absolutely fell in love with this apartment and cannot wait to plan another trip back. The apartment was VERY spacious and even more beautiful than the pictures. The hosts were absolutely lovely including the cute little pups. I was even greeted with goodies from their garden which were delightful and made a fantastic dinner. I came to Tuscany to find some solo space & relax. This was the PERFECT location. I did yoga in the garden in the morning and enjoyed a vino watching the sunset from the hammock. The location is a great base to explore many areas of Tuscany and the hosts have tons of recommendations. The only issue is the wifi is a bit spotty which probably was a good thing so I was forced to relax and self reflect. This was one of the top highlights of my trip and I cannot wait to come back again!

Travelling to Tuscany? Villa Allegria is perfect place to stay! Many thanks to Francesco and Cecilia, who are the best hosts we have ever had. The house is amazing, clean and well equipped. We spent amazing time and I recommend this place to everybody - you definitely won't regret your stay at Villa Allegria.

The house is completely surrounded by greenery in a quiet residential area, it offers a large garden with all amenities. The house is very spacious and pretty: it has a large living room, kitchen with all appliances and a very large master bedroom. Francesco and his family are very friendly and nice, they worry that your stay at Villa Joy is great and you make it available for any need. What about: perfection.

Excellent reception

Tutto perfetto..posto meraviglioso immerso nel verde per un totale relax. Ospitalità e gentilezza ..torneremo sicuramente!

Claudio made us feel like family when we arrived! He is such a warm and genuine man. His place is extremely well kept and clean. The apartment feels very rustic and authentic, yet it has all the modern amenities that one would need on their vacation. We absolutely loved our stay here. It is situated right in the heart of the Medieval village of Torri, and is conveniently located very close to Siena's historic center (only about a 20 minute drive), and there is a great view of Siena from the backyard. Everyone we met in the village was also very warm and welcoming - we made friends on our first day there! Staying at Caludio's place was far better than any hotel we have stayed in - AMAZING! Ciao Claudio, spero che ci vediamo presto!

Claudio's place is really wonderful. It's in the hillside village of torri, which is beautiful and just up the street from stigliano which is also wonderful. The location is perfect if you want authentic Tuscan charm. Claudio is a wonderful host and as other reviewers have said only wants you to have a wonderful time. We loved staying there and will visit again if we come back through Tuscany.

Claudio was extremely welcoming and flexible about our arrival time. We started our stay with a tour of the vegetable garden and a visit to the chickens! The house is absolutely perfect: calm, clean and extremely well equipped. Claudio has very carefully thought of everything guests might need to be self sufficient and comfortable. We thoroughily enjoyed the house and the area is superb.

We were made very welcome arrival of ours. Claudio also has us very very well informed for our out! The accommodation is perfect it fits exactly with the outside decor. I recommend this lovely place.

Excellent place to spend a few days touring Tuscany and relax !!

We really enjoyed our time at Claudios appertment. Everything has been like described and in reality it was even better. Claudio has been a fantastic and heart-warming host, who gave us a lot of tips where to go an what to eat. The view from the garden was amazing and Torri was simply beautiful. We surely come back again.

Claudio was very friendly and helpful. He received us with a bottle of wine. He gave us maps and advised what to visit in the area, where to eat, where to buy groceries, etc. The home is very nice, well kept and very clean. The location has a great view, and it is very tranquil, some 15 - 20 minutes easy drive from Sienna. We had a great time, and we certainly would return.

The accommodation of Claudio is very nice, well equipped and nicely decorated. Located in a very quiet village, it is a good starting point to visit the south of Tuscany. It takes 15 minutes by car to go to Siena.

We spent two very pleasant days, the staff was very dasubito very courteous and extremely available. The rooms are very cozy, the very beautiful outdoor spaces, with a nice pool to relax. We also enjoyed the food in the restaurant, an excellent quality - price ratio. A great place to spend a few days relaxing near Siena.

Everything was really perfect! All questions beforehand answered,really nice room. Exactly as shown and a lot more care than expected. And on top absolutely awesome restaurant!

Very nice location! Staff was very friendly and the breakfast was absolutely delicious!

The place was amazing. Room was bright and clean and very homy. The hosts were amazing making us very welcome. They recommended few places to see in Chianti plus a vineyard tour that they also help to organise. Breakfast was one of the best we had in Italy and will definitely come back one day...

The ideal place to enjoy in Tuscany! People are exceptional, the restaurant is great and the place is indescribable !! We recommend to all!

Casa di Campagna was perfect and brillant. Roland April 2015

This is a lovely location even though we didn't have a car we enjoyed borrowing the bikes and cycling round the valley. The staff were incredibly helpful, even dropping us at the bus stop when we left. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfast was superb, lovely fruit, cakes, cheese, yoghurt etc. Eat at the restuarant where the food is great and the staff will translate the menu. The house wine is great value and made close by. Good pool too where you can watch the birds swooping down to drink. Would recommend.

Very warm welcome that will make you smile. We loved the quietness and beauty of the area. Pool was perfect to rest from our car trip. Rooms perfectly clean, spacious and very quiet. Restaurant food was excellent. Will come back!

Upon our arrival, Francesca greeted us warmly and showed us around the house: a little gem equipped with every comfort (equipped kitchen, TV, fridge with freezer, electric oven), pleasantly heated by a stove and spotlessly clean. Too bad they stopped only for one night!

The accommodation of francesca is ideal for 2 people Very quiet with its small terrace and its large garden; We really liked this accommodation. 12 km west of Siena and very central to visit this beautiful area !! We really recommend this address !! A very nice and efficient welcome; If you want a quiet central accommodation and frankly welcome do not hesitate !! You will not be disappointed !!

Absolutely loved staying at Francesca's cottage. Everything was perfect and she was so accommodating. Would highly recommend it :)

Removing the directions. Place of peace and relaxation

My experience was very pleasant and memorable. Francesca was a great host and made us felt at home. The place was just as good as it was described. Will stay here again.

Strategic position

The small Francesca holiday home exceeded what we had imagined with the photos. At the heart of the Tuscan hills, 15 km from Siena, this house is perfect for relaxing after visiting the region. Independent with a small terrace and a large garden where we were waiting tables and chairs to enjoy the sun, it is a charming place where we felt like home. Added to that the hospitality and kindness of Francesca, always available to help us and give us good advice, this is the place dreamed to relax in the countryside while being close to all the places to visit. To discover without hesitation!

rustic cottage located in the hills around Siena. The place is surrounded by greenery, in the silence. It's a good place to turn Siena and its surroundings. Fundamental to have the car x move. Surely with the summer and the heat it is even better because you can take advantage of the wide open spaces. In April it was cold, but at home there is an excellent pellet stove that warmed us the evenings. Francesca welcomed us with great warmth, kindness and helpfulness. He gave us several tips on places to visit both restaurants both on x try the local cuisine. In conclusion a great holiday in all senses

This is the perfect place to stay if going to Siena, and you have a car. Lovely and quiet. Great house!

Lovely little apartment. Be warned that there is no air conditioning, so it can be quite hot in the summer. Otherwise, it incredibly charming.

Estancia muy agradable en plena Toscana, muy recomendable para desconectar unos días.

The apartment is nice and comfortable, 10 min by car from the center of Sienna. Marina was friendly and polite.

Great place to stay, quiet and in the same time close enough to the city. Had a great time.

Quiet accommodation. 100x100 recommended. We will be back!!!

Excellent host. Beautiful location. Definitely would recommend for others if looking for a peaceful stay in the Tuscan countryside.

Marina was super friendly and a great host! She let us come in for a very late check in and helped us with directions. Her home is perfect if you want a real Tuscan style get away. There isn't wifi in the actual home, but Marina lives right beside and you can access the wifi there for your needs. Thanks Marina !

Très avenante très agréable

La Casina is a great place to stay near Siena. Highly recommended!

The host canceled this reservation 30 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Roberto waited for our arrival. The apartment was as shown and sleeps 5 easily, but could sleep six if two beds are shared. The shelves were fully stocked and Roberto even took care to leave delicious wine. Make sure to try the wine! Easy to drive the country side and get to Siena. A car is essential here. The apartment makes a great home base. Roberto and his mother are very nice people. We would stay here again.

We stayed at Roberto's for two nights. It was a very comfortable and pleasant stay. His apartment is very clean and both bathroom and kitchen are completely stocked. There's soaps and shampoos to use with lots of fresh towels. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a basic meal. And even a bottle of wine to complement your meal. The fridge also has a lot of cold drinks ready. The wifi was very quick. And Roberto was very quick to respond to any questions we had which weren't many. He was quite informative about the area and what to do. I would recommend staying here and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Very nice place 10 minutes away from Sienna. Roberto took time to host us as well as possible. He also gave us a bottle of wine, filled the shelves with food for our diner and our breakfast. Very nice and unusual. We enjoyed our stay and recommend it!

Roberto was a lovely host. He bought us breakfast one day and picked us up from Sienna late at night another day. I would recommend going by car as it is not too close to Sienna but the place is lovely.

Just perfect.

The house was great for a couples getaway or a family of three. Roberto provided water and breakfast materials for the morning. The location is ideal for those who have a car as it is about a 20 minute drive to Siena. Roberto was very professional and attentive to detail.

very friendly welcome, breakfast to listen to our questions, very generous (local products is available) and available that we could TROUBLESHOOTING quickly and efficiently. Large apartment on the ground floor, very clean and good feeding, friendly, and located in the heart of a small medieval hamlet with parking at the door. The apartment is close to Siena and very close to a village with shops.

We had an extremely enjoyable time in Roberto's home in San Rocco. Very peaceful little town just outside Siena, and the locals seemed quite friendly. Roberto was a gracious host, helpful and welcoming. We felt like we were very much at home. Although there is a bus stop just a few steps away which takes you to Siena, a car would be recommended if you want to see the sights of Tuscany. Would highly recommend if you want a peaceful stay. Grazie mille Roberto... Dharshini and Wesley.

Nicely situated, cosy place just few kilometers from town center. Small, charming appartement well equiped and full of character. Francesca was welcoming and helpful. We definitly recomend it!

Apartment very cute, clean and comfortable! Ideally located for visiting Siena (15 min by car), it also allows access to florence and the small villages of Tuscany.

totally vintage! with everything needed in the countryside but close to Siena. Pity them to change the bed for two pallets and had bugs, which I guess quite normal to be found in nature.

We had a lovely stay in Francescas rustic apartment that was full of charm and character. Francesca and her family were wonderful hosts. It is also in a great position for exploring the area around Siena.

The place was amazing. I stayed here with my wife on our trip in Tuscany. If your looking for a quiet, clean, and cozy stay this is the place.

Who needs to explore as Siena a place to sleep, for it is specifically designed possibly. Simple, functional accommodation. not easy to find even with GPS, on street with much traffic. Francesca is friendly and uncomplicated.

Very nice little studio, ideally placed for visiting the area. Bus very close to go to his.

We had two lovely days in this beautiful little house. Francesca and her husband are wonderful people. Lovely, authentic Italian country-idyll. We felt almost Italian when we stood and made delicious food of gas stove in the little cute kitchen.

A very pleasant place, from which you can both easily go to Siena and visit the charming villages and country around. The traditional house is very charming, and you will find eveything you need there for your daily life. We were in Sovicille in August, and it was good to be in a perfectly well insulated house, where the temperature was perfect even when it was very hot outside. Sandro and Lucia are very friendly : they are at your disposal, give you all the information and advice to visit the area, take time to welcome you and to talk with you every day. If you want to discover the surroundings, look for a pleasant house to get some rest, and meet nice hosts, then you have found the place !

Casa della Nonna is truly a special place. We stayed for a week at "Grandmother's house" to recharge and explore the Tuscan region. We could not have made a better choice, the home has everything we needed including a washer, stocked kitchen, plenty of space and the location made it easy to see all the important spots in Tuscany including Siena, the Chianti region, Florence, Pisa, wineries, fantastic restaurants etc. Our hosts, Sandro & Lucia, were so accommodating and so responsive... they even gave us olive oil, wine & sweets when we realized all the stores were closed (it was sunday afternoon). We did not want to leave and can not wait to refer this & other properties of theirs to friends and family!

Very comfortable house surrounded by greenery. Hosts very polite and prompt in indications. Highly recommended

Un perfetto soggiorno nella amata Toscana, nonostante il caldo "mostruoso" ed anomalo di questi giorni! La casa è davvero molto bella, rifornita di tutto, arredata con grande gusto e sensibilità per il contesto.Non c'è nessun bisogno di aria condizionata, il fresco è naturale e molto più sano. Nelle torride ore centrali della giornata l' unico luogo in cui si stava bene era proprio il salone di questa casa. La costruzione fa parte di un piccolo complesso di rustici, con proprietà chiusa da cancello automatico. Il posto auto (nel nostro caso moto) è proprio davanti a casa.Il luogo è molto tranquillo, la notte si dorme divinamente, nel silenzio più assoluto. Al nostro arrivo ci ha accolti il signor Sandro, persona davvero piacevole, gentile e disponibilissima. Ringraziamo lui e la signora Lucia, host entrambi perfetti!! Consigliamo a tutti di soggiornare nella "Casa della Nonna" di Sovicille, a pochi chilometri da Siena, base ideale per visitare la regione, ma anche luogo perfetto per riposare la mente e l' animo.

Bellissimo appartamento in contesto tranquillo e comodo per raggiungere tutte le bellezze senesi. Fresco anche quando fuori è torrido, il centro di Sovicille è raggiungibile anche a piedi. Grazie a Lucia e Sandro.

Such a fantastic place with incredible views. We stayed here with 4 adults and 2 young children and it was just perfect. There is a town 2km away with a shopping centre, cafes, restraints and bars and easy access onto hwy less than 10 minutes away. The photos just don't do this place justice and I would highly recommend staying here.

The villa in Tuscany is beautiful, spacious, well equipped and it has great views to the countryside. Nadia and her son are most helpful and friendly hosts: they even got a welcome present for us. I recommend this place for everyone who wants to enjoy Siena countryside.

Marco and Nadia were the best! They were punctual, kind, helpful and fast at replying. They even gave us complimentary olive oil (from their own field), eggs (from the near farm) and red wine (also from the near field). When we had anything on our minds they replied within 2 minutes to our questions. Also they recommended the best places to eat and must see places near the apartment, Siena and this part of Tuscany. The place was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed from toaster to moka pot and from shampoo to towels. The view was amazing and the deck chairs on the yard made it pleasant to bathe in the sun! The carport kept our car nice and cool ready for a drive. This area was the best part of Tuscany in my opinion - wide sunflower fields, wine and olive trees, alot of hills and cosy small roads with cosy little villages and old buildings. We spend almost a week exploring this part of Tuscany and it wasn't enought. Montalcino, Montepulciano and many other cities/villages was great places to visit and you should ask more from Marco and Nadia about must see places. We fell in love with Tuscany instanly and will come back definately! We had privacy and felt like we were in the middle of nowhere (in a good way) but still there was alot to see within 10 min drive. So if you enjoy peaceful vacation with breath taking views - come to this part of Tuscany and stay at this lovely apartment :)

A wonderfull place for a family, very quiet, with a beautiful garden and view on the countryside. The house interior is brand new. A very warm welcome, with a special gift from the owner's production. A perfect location to visit Sienna area, we even stayed one extra day !

WOW!!! Tuscany is A-mazing and Nadia & Marco are wonderful and welcoming hosts. The apartment is spacious clean and very comfortable. We were 2 couples staying for 4 nights and using the apartment as a base to explore Tuscany and surrounds by car. The apartment is perfect for this but also perfect for just relaxing and getting away from it all. Marco and his mum met us and gave us eggs from their chickens, wine and biscuits. Marco gave us maps and lots of advice on things to see and do. The wood fire was lovely to come back to of an evening and sip chianti by. Communication with Marco leading up to and during our stay was smooth and always prompt, even with our tome zone differences. Thank you Marco and Nadia for making our holiday memorable.

We stayed at Nadia's house for three nights and enjoyed every second of it. She gave us a very warm welcome when we arrived. The house is very spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the showers were great. They left us some homemade olive oil and eggs from their chickens. The area is beautiful. There's a nice view from the back yard. It's a great base to explore Tuscany from. Communication with the hosts was excellent. We booked last minute and they made sure to send us all the information we needed and a very detailed map with directions to the house. I highly recommend this listing.

Nadia's apartment is just absolutely stunning. It is immaculately furnished and maintained and has a really nice garden area which you are free to use. The views of the surrounding hills too are great, perfect for a relaxing summer's evening! We were welcomed with local tips, wine, biscuits and honey too. We can not recommend the place more, stay here!

Such a beautiful location to experience the countryside.

There is a big house in the middle of the forest. the owners live in one side, and you can rent the other side. However there is much privacy. the size of the living room and the bedrooms are very good. the kitchen is a bit small but well equipped with a big fridge, microwave, oven, washing machine and all you need if you wish to cook for yourself including a barbecue outside (we did not use it). If you wish to eat or sit outside you need to go down the stairs as the part of the house available for the guest is on the first floor. We enjoyed eating outside much, however there were mosquitoes which were quite unpleasant and bothering. The forest is beautiful and it was enjoyable to be away from pollution and noise. Wifi worked most of the time, and when it did not it was fixed the same day. the owners are discreet and pleasant. There are many books and flyers inside the house about Tuscany and much to do and visit around between Siena, Florence and Volterra. In the nearest town Rosia there is a coop with everything you need if you wish to do some food shopping. Just take into account that the house is isolated so you need at least 6km drive until you are on a main road.

We were welcomed with typical italian warmth and gracious hospitality. We felt immediately at home in this most beautiful place! It was beyond our expectations in every way. The house was very spacious, clean, nicely furnished and well equipped in all ways. There was everything needed to make you feel comfortable. A total winner — from the house to the private garden and the overall beauty of the surrounding Tuscan countryside! Highly recommended to everyone!

Barbara and her entire family made us feel like a part of their family for our entire stay. Finding the "right" place in Tuscany rural area can be difficult, but this was exactly what we were hoping for. Isolated in the mountains of Tuscany, on a beautiful stretch of land that overlooks the valleys and vineyards of the land. We had fresh fruit to pick from and Barbara was able to book activities for us, like horseback riding and wine tasting. They have an extremely homely house, and will even offer to cook for you one night if you're lucky enough. If you are looking to truly get away from the hustle of the cities and the commercialism of hotels, I highly recommend staying here. It was truly a unique and true Tuscan experience. Make sure to survey the land and catch the unbelievable sunsets and even see some wild horses or boars riding through the forests. Please consider renting a car that can handle dirt roads as you will need to navigate through country roads. Siena is about a 30 minute drive from this house, but is a fantastically gorgeous drive.

Barbara's villa is a dream!! It is a beautiful Tuscany villa located just a few miles from Siena. It is very comfortable, quite, and peaceful. It is perfect for creating new family memories. Francesco is an amazing host, he was always available to help if we needed anything , he provided great advice and he even surprised us with a lovely basket of fruits and vegetables from his personal garden. We highly recommend this place to anyone who really wants to experience the heart of Tuscany.

It's a beautiful and peaceful place!

If you want to get away from everything and spend a great time in a really nice place, this is your place to go. Closer town is 15 minutes away, which is great for a get-away. The family that owns the place lives in the same building, so they are there to help if needed. Lovely and huge garden. The house itself is just beautiful, way better than what pictures show. I definitely will come back. Barbara and Frachesco where great with suggestion and making us feel good.

Our stay dqns home of Barbara was a true moment of relaxation dqns a quiet and secluded location. Barbara was a great host: welcome home, tjrs available to guide us on the region and at the same time very discreet (Barbara's home is attached). If it again we don not hesitate. A big thank you to Barbara.

After spending 6 days at Barbara's villa I can say we were very lucky to find this wonderful place. Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. The villa is beautiful and very well equipped (we came with a 4 years old child and a baby). The garden around the villa was perfect for the children. Above all, Barbara and Morreno were the perfect hosts: they were warm and generous, very attentive, and they made us feel at home from the second we walked in the villa. For us it was a dream vacation :-) Thank you Barbara & Morreno

We can really recommend this house! We were a party of three families (10 people) and all of us enjoyed the house a lot. The house was very clean. Great with four bathrooms (two downstairs and two upstairs, every family had their own bathroom). Fans in the rooms but not needed in the rooms downstairs. Kitchen well equipped and a nice barbecue outside. Swimming pool was well used by both children and adults. You can see the swimming pool from the kitchen window which is good if you want to keep an eye on the children. Communication with host was excellent. Quick responses. During our stay in the house the host phoned us three times just to make sure that everything was alright. They even did shopping for our breakfast as we arrived late. I have never met such high services when booking a house. Twice the hosts niece did cooking for us in the house. That was great and food wonderful! Nice to relax at "home" and dinner served! In Sovicille there is one (didn´t find any others) restaurant which we can recommend. Walking distance 10 minutes. The best Coop in the neighbourhood is in Rosia (max. 10 drive). There is a small shop in Sovicille where you can buy milk, water, bread etc. For groceries in Siena we recommend Conad which is very well stocked (avoid Penny Market). We highly recommend this house! Would love to come back one day!

The house and property is everything and more that was promised. Arrangements and directions were provided well in advance by Bernard. Communication before and during check-inn was engaging and I will recommend that future travelers keep in touch with check-inn times as it makes things run smooth (the summer Tuscan sun can really confuse your sense with the time of day and you may well miss your check-inn slot). A well appointed kitchen, sleeping arrangements as promised and a big outside property made our stay amazing. The property easily accommodated the 10 of us. Dinners under the trees and lounging around the pool was the order of the day. Bernard also kept us informed of activities around Sovicille. This personalized interaction makes the place and experience unique.

Beautiful old tuscan farmhouse with many original features. Pool area equipped with beds chairs etc pool about 5ft deep. 4 bathrooms! Dining in kitchen or outside on long plastic tables/chairs. Brick barbeque available. Area quiet and secluded set in woodland with walking routes. Local bar restaurant bank pharmacy all within walking distance. Well stocked supermarket 8 km away. Other restaurants a short drive away. Met by friendly key holder at local bar/restaurant and led to farmhouse. Recommended for peaceful secluded holiday!

The stay was absolutely fantastic. The space and location are a dream, even more wonderful than the pictures give credit for. This is perfect for large families or groups. My wife and I stayed here before our wedding as well as some of our guests staying here during our wedding. We were made to feel completely at home. A truly magical stay, the location and space are so special. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay a pleasure. Do not hesitate to stay here, you will be very well looked after.
