My family and I stayed at Casale Giulio late May 2019. It was a wonderful time. The house is an old farmhouse that is surrounded by beautiful fields of wheat, cypresses, olive groves and a wide variety of wild flowers. It is a truly beautiful area. The views of Mt. Cetona were spectacular. The general area is very beautiful with beautiful houses nearby that are pleasant to look at from afar. The town of Cetona is beautiful and serene. Very quaint. Be mindful that the nearest grocery store keeps odd hours and was on one occasion closed when it should have been opened.
The owner is a great guy and very helpful. The neighbor lady farms the fields adjacent to the house and the home owner owns them as well. She was very friendly and helpful. My only suggestion is that the owner provide a barbecue for outdoor and a ‘American’ style drip coffee maker. Just be aware that the house is old and there are some minor inconveniences such as a long wait for hot water. But overall a great experience and in my view a good deal for the price. I would definitely stay again if the opportunity were to arise.

Overall we were very happy with the accomodation and facilities. The owners and cleaning lady were amenable to our requests regarding some maintenance issues which were promptly fixed. The grounds were beautiful and well kept. Internet was only available downstairs and was quite patchy even there.
- [ ] Some minor items that we found missing included a cutting board, mugs for large coffees and a lighter for the cooktop. It would have been nice to have some more kitchen basics such as milk, sugar, tea and coffee on our arrival.
- [ ] We also had some cold evenings and there was no area downstairs where the twelve of us could gather, eat and stay warm
But overall we were happy with our rooms. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were of a good size and the air conditioning worked well upstairs

A beautiful Tuscan Villa in a stunning setting. Manuela and Roberto were wonderful hosts going above and beyond to make our vacation perfect. The house and grounds (in an active olive orchard) are immaculately kept and very well provisioned. We loved the location - within an hour of Siena, San Gimignano, Montalcino, Montepulciano and most of the sites in Southern & Eastern Tuscany and close to the train station for the journey to Florence (1 hour 20 min train ride). We'll be back!
