All our experiences were as positive as others have described them. David, the owner was very welcoming. We intended to see a great many places in Tuscany, but found that there were so many other interesting places such as Monticchiello nearby. La Casina was also very conveniently located: the walk to the supermarket was around 7 minutes and to Montepulciano around 12. We had a car but found that there were plenty of wonderful walks around the property and around Montepulciano. Morning breakfast outside was idyllic: rural Tuscany at its best. The views are extraordinary. Conveniences such as a clothes washer made our stay even more perfect. There were 3 of us: my wife and I and a friend and there was plenty of room and privacy inside the house. I can't think of a more perfect way to stay and visit in Tuscany.

We stayed in La Casina Toscana in March for 4 days and had the best time! Easily walked to Montepulciano and the country side. Took daytrips to San Quirico d'Orcia, Castiglione Del Lago, , Monticchiello, Pienza and Montalcino. We loved the surrounding vineyards, and enjoyed breakfast outside each morning and barbequed each evening. Also enjoyed the huge fireplace.

We stayed at La Casina Toscana in January 2014. The house is lovely with modern fittings in an old setting. The view from our bedroom is a wonderful memory of the sun coming up over a Tuscan valley. Davide was a thoughtful host and the town of Montepulciano a wonderful backdrop! We did the daily walk up the hill to explore all the parts of the old town and to marvel at the views. The house is well positioned for the town, the bus station and just for lovely afternoon walks. We hope to one day visit again!
We were lucky enough to stay at La Casina for New Years 2014. The house is so comfortable, clean and well equipped. It has two heating systems and a huge fireplace, although we were very lucky to never really need the electric heat, the house stayed very cozy with minimal heat. The views are amazing, you look right up to Montepulciano. But the best part is how close it is to town, in under 10 minutes you are in the center of town. On New Year's Eve there was a bonfire in the piazza with fireworks and a live band. A most memorable night! Montepulciano is the perfect hub to visit many Tuscan towns, an easy to drive to Montalcino, Pienza, Cortona, and Casteleone del Lago...just to name a few.
The outdoor area is so beautiful, I can only imagine being there is the spring or summer. we were lucky it was warm enough one day to enjoy lunch outside overlooking the beautiful hills of Tuscany
Davide and his parents do everything they can to make your stay comfortable, they are the perfect hosts! A quick text to Davide and whatever you need, ( a basket of wood for the fireplace, clean towels) is at your doorstep. Every detail was spot on right down to a welcome bottle of wine from a local vineyard. Do not hesitate to book this Tuscan gem! I only hope we can return some day!

We spent a lovely week in La Casina Toscana last summer. It was our 4th time in Tuscany, but this one was definitely the best. Montepulciano is an an extraordinary town, full of great restaurants and vineyard shops. It's a hilltop town so the surrounding views are immaculate. It's good to have a car there as there are many places close by worth visiting, like Siena, Arezzo, Perugia, Cortona, Pienza or Castiglione del Lago. Although, for us the favourite place was our villa - La Casina Toscana, owned by Davide and his family. The house is brilliant, design in tuscan style and furnished traditional with very high standard. There are two double bedrooms and the bathroom with shower on the up floor, which you can access from the front doors. The kitchen, living room, single bedroom and another bathroom are situated on the lower floor, which you can access using stairs or from the garden. The terrace is on the right side, perfect to have a coffee in the morning or glass of wine in the evening and admire lights of Montpulciano. The garden is full of flowers and olive trees with table, chairs and sun beds if you fancy have a barbecue or eat outside. Villa is fully equipped so we didn't have to worried about anything. The air conditioners are in every room, so it's never too hot. There is not even one thing we could complain about. Davide is a great host, he speaks very good English, so no communications problems at all, he also replied straight away to emails and always answered the phone, he's very professional. So we would like to thanks Davide, his wife and parents, for the warm welcoming, for taking care of us and for giving us an opportunity to taste a bit of Tuscany life in their fabulous villa. We highly recommend holidays in La Casina Toscana.

I stayed at La Casina Toscana for the last week of Sept. / First week of Oct. in 2013 and it was an amazing experience! We were a group of 5, 2 couples and me. We arrived in the afternoon and were greeted by Davide and a beautiful view of the Tuscan countryside. Davide ran through everything about the house with us when we arrived and was very nice to us. We were able to sit and enjoy the sunset with a glass of wine and an amazing view of Montepulciano every evening we where there. The house is located at the bottom of the hill leading up to Montepulciano and my group greatly enjoyed the short walk up to town for food, shopping, sightseeing, etc. Not having to find a place to park in town was wonderful. We were able to make day trips to both Siena and Florence while were were in Italy, the house makes a great home-base for seeing all the other sights in the region. I hope to be able to come back again soon, and I would love to do it again in the beginning of autumn, it was breathtakingly beautiful.
