Cortile Del Pozzo

The house is located in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. Guests are offered a private garden, spacious rooms and a modern and well-equipped kitchen. The property turned out to be comfortable and hospitable. We also enjoyed the possibility of including the use of air conditioning as our stay happened on some exceptionally hot days. However fresher air was coming at night. The property shares green areas that include a tennis court and a large swimming pool, which was particularly appreciated. The hosts were very attentive and kept in touch to ensure our stay was proceeding fine. Our group was made of older and younger guests and we all had a good time in Cortile del Pozzo.

The house is located in the countryside and there is a short unpaved road to access it. The last slope before reaching the parking spot was a bit bumpy by car, but it was just a few meters.

Perfect location, excellent pool and amenities, helpful host recommendations

Nothing

We loved our brief stay here. The home is beautiful and nicely appointed with great views all aroun.d Buonconvento is a real find with a warm atmosphere and friendly locals with a nice selection of bars and restaurants to choose from as well as the Co-op supermarket. Some of the other villages like Montalcino and Pienza whilst lovely to visit (and i am sure very popular in summer) were virtually closed down for the winter it seemed. A big thank you to Julie for all her tips and recommendations ahead of our stay which helped make our holiday extra special- we especially enjoyed the close proximity to the home of Mulino (for pizza and morning coffee) and Bibbio a short drive from the home. We definitely hope to return some day.

A couple of the restaurants in the village were closed till March so missed out as stayed out of season. Other than that our stay was perfect.

The house we rented was truly stunning. It offered a luxurious experience with its well-maintained swimming pool, air conditioning, tennis court, and breathtaking views over the hills of Tuscany. The amenities were top-notch and provided everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. The house itself was comfortable, and the option to cool off in the refreshing pool was a welcome treat during the warm Tuscan days.

However, our interactions with the host, while helpful in some aspects, left us wishing for a more relaxed and hands-off approach. While some tips and assistance are always appreciated, the constant stream of messages and calls became overwhelming. One major issue arose when a neighbor complained about us without directly communicating their concerns with us first. On one occasion, when we were just talking outside after dinner, the host confronted us the following morning, threatening to evict us from the property. We were taken aback by this reaction, as there were no complaints during the night, and we had no knowledge that we were being too loud. This episode made us feel unwelcome and uncomfortable for the remainder of our stay
