8.0 / 10.0Excellent·May 2023
A few négative points.... 1. The swimmingpool was on a high level, many steps to climb. Awkard for anybody having mobility problem 2. The equipment of the villa is a bit outdated and would deserve a refreshment (sofa covers, bed covers...) 3. Only 1 TV channel which. The weather was wet at our arrival, it was cold and we would have appreciated to watch TV Other than that the owner has just been very pleasant and helpful. Good recommendations for visits and restaurants The villa and the garden are beautiful and very quiet. Peaceful with great view.

The villa was perfect for our family of 7. Each had a nice bedroom with bath. The views were incredible and we were able to take lots of side trips to Siena, Florence, Cortona, the wine country and other surrounding hill towns. After a long day of sightseeing, we took a day or two off and just enjoyed the pool and hot tub and went into Monterchi for our morning caffe and pastry. A highlight was getting to know our lovely host, Rosado! He checked on the property each day, cleaned the pool, watered plants and gave us great suggestions for places to visit, restaurants to try, where to park in various towns and got to know us as friends. We looked forward to his visits and chats about the villa and its history. Sleeping in a Medici lookout tower was so special! We will be back!

Great views and location for a visit to the wine country. The owner Rosado treats everyone like family and makes the visit most enjoyable. Meraviglioso! very helpful. Owner made reservation at restaurants, helped us with a flat tire, and was always available to answer questions.
