Chianti Loft

The house was beautifully presented. Fabulous high ceiling in the main living area. Good outside spaces. Sizeable swimming pool. Only downside was the road/track down to the property which challenged the tyres on our hire car. Don’t bring a low slung sports car here!

The property is set in the most beautiful location. To access the property you travel down a track that’s fairly steep. The house is set below the pool which was stunning. Listed as a private pool but the property owners used it. No issues for us but for those who think it’s private, this is a heads up. The house is rustic and basic but comfortable for a week’s stay. Usual ant activity in the kitchen. You will also have an electricity limit that you will need to pay if you go over. Hosts were very welcoming and helpful.

A rustic Tuscan converted barn with a stunning location and views to die for. 10-minute walk (uphill) to the village for excellent restaurant options and supplies. Manu was a wonderful and accommodating host, offering a warm welcome and lots of assistance with local bookings and recommendations. BBQ dinners by the pool at dusk were a highlight!

We stayed a week in this very interesting old house, however kitchen and bathrooms were quite shabby. The kitchen was completely crowded with ants and in reality you could not have food on the tables. We didn't feel very welcome; by mistake our two children (13 years) hadn't been registered, as the agency had booked the house for us, and even though we immediately offerd to pay for them, the owner complained all week about the two extra people, We never got the extra towels, we requested, and the owner complained about sun protection in the pool - however, there was no shower at the pool. The owner had confirmed in writing that the pool was private, however, two family members suddenly occupied the sun beds leaving no sun beds, mattresses and parasols to us. The house is overpriced, low quality and sorry to say: we won't come back. The area is great though with charming small towns, restaurants etc, but we will stay at another venue next time.
