This villa is outstanding. It offers everything you could possibly want. Its location in the Tuscan Hills is beautiful, the villa itself is full of Italian charm and the grounds including the pool spacious and well cared for. I highly recommend this as a great base for visiting Siena, Florence and Chianti villages.

We enjoyed all Francesca's help in planning our stay and making sure all our friends had a memorable stay. The property had eveything we were looking for, lovely outdoor spaces, great barbecue area and a big swimming pool set amongst the trees.
We were able to use the various kitchens for breakfast for everyone and preparing food for a party and they were very well equipped.
The best thing was the location which meant that everyone could go and visit the nearby places they hadn't been to before. Certaldo Alto is our favourite and the closest but San Gimignano is only minutes away and Siena and Florence are both less than an hour away.
The villa is in a very rural location despite being close to Certaldo and the railway station there so we had no worries about disturbing the neighbours.
The villa has lovely high ceilings and beams and feels cool even when it's hot outside. Not many of the rooms have en suite bathrooms so it is suited best to families or groups. But the accommodation is very flexible and could obviously accommodate several different groups or families at once (especially with the additional rooms near the entrance to the villa grounds, not shown on here.)
Overall, a relaxed, homely atmosphere from which to explore a beautiful part of Tuscany. We loved it.
