I cannot begin to describe the beauty of the Tuscan countryside and Villa Le Ginepraie. We were greeted by a wonderful, hospitable Val who answered all our questions and helped us make the most a stay that was too short. If you are considering a stay in Tuscany make sure you stay here! I recommend you have a hire car... More

Valerio and Paulita were so accommodating and nice. We wanted to do a pizza cooking class and they set up a personal training with a local... More

We recently stayed at Valerio and Paola’s wonderful villa in the heart of Tuscany and could not have been happier. Our room was spacious, immaculate, and inviting, with a divinely comfortable bed. The views in all directions were postcard perfect - classic Tuscany. The breakfasts were delicious with a special surprise baked fresh each morning by Paola. Valerio and Paola,... More

We can't wait to return to Paola & Valerio's beautiful villa! This was one of our favorite places in Italy. The surrounding land and views are gorgeous, the villa was spotless, large and comfortable, and Paola and Valerio are the kindest people. We had so much fun staying here and were able to relax while also seeing Siena, Lucca, Volterra... More

A great house with fantastic scenery! We where 3 families with children aging from 1 to 15. With seperated apartments and an nice outdoor area this worked out perfect for us. The location is very good with several different towns/cities to visit within a short range (Pisa, Volterra, Florenze, Siena, San Gimnigano). Paola and Valerio (who owns the villa) gave... More

Villa Le Ginepraie was recommended to us by close friends and we could not have been happier with our choice. Paola and Valerio, the young owners, were very attentive to all of our needs. They recommended great restaurants, excursions to nearby towns, arranged horseback riding, held a cooking class for us, fixed gourmet breakfasts and dinners and were very friendly.... More

The villa is beautifully situated in typical Tuscan countryside and well placed for trips to Siena, Florence and Pisa as well as the more local towns of San Gimignano and Volterra. The villa is delighfully appointed and is ideal for a family bash. (We took... More
