Reviews

• Potpara from Montenegro (9/10)

  All!! A place like from a fairy tale, a movie. Wonderful nature, done with so much taste and style typical of Tuscany as it should be, simply to make you feel like a lucky person who could get the chance to be there. I saw a lot of comments and I wondered if people are realistic, so many criticisms about the road, which must be the way it is because Tuscany is protected by UNESCO, and I can't believe that people can't understand that such roads and approaches must remain rural, and not paved, which would definitely damage the beauty and quality of the vineyard. Every bad comment seems to be a bad or unhappy life of certain people and they express their dissatisfaction with criticism about stupidity literally. All recommendations for how long you want a wonderful vacation, a peaceful and tidy place, a rest for the soul.

• Anat from Israel (8/10)

  The place is absolutely gorgeous! The surroundings and the apartment itself. The rooms were large, the whole place is designed beautifully, the kitchen was super comfortable and the terrace with the grill was a delight. The views are one of kind and are worth the bumpy road!!!

• Dan from Belgium (9/10)

  Beautifully restored property with incredible pool area; individual sitting areas outside each apartment that are quite private. The apartment is well appointed for items like pots, pans, cookware, etc. everything you would need for cooking at the apartment. A very nice touch was the bottle of Chianti in the room – provided by the host. (Other hosts take note! 🙂
  We travelled in early September so the high, summer heat had relented (evenings were comfortable) but not sure how warm the apartment would be without AC in the summer?! These are "issues" maybe only for North Americans like us?!
