This villa was perfect for our family holiday - the house was spacious and well laid out, so we each had a lot of privacy if we felt like it, and the common areas were wonderful for enjoying a glass of wine and dinner in the evenings. We really loved the garden, the views were spectacular, and the CD collection really set the mood! The walk up from the village is super tough - enough to excuse a gelato every day. Our only complaint was that we seemed to share the house with a family of rats (who got stuck into the food we left on the kitchen counter our first night there). Virginia and Carlo were very helpful in sorting out this and any other issue we had. We had a wonderful stay thank you.

Outstanding location combining rural tranquillity with easy access to both beach and many interesting towns and villages. Wonderful views from the extremely spacious patio complemented by beautiful gardens and a great pool. An equally spacious interior, ensuring that even when full of guests one can still find a bit of peace and quiet if required. Staff, Alfonso and Camilla most helpful in assisting with any requests for information or unforeseen needs.Voted by our group of 7 adults and 8 kids (aged 3 months to 13) as one of the best holidays they have ever had!!

Lovely location and views with ideal pool for a baby as it has shade. Only thing is it's lacking is a comfortable place to sit so we ended up sitting on the downstairs bed. Another reviewer mentioned this in the guest book 3 years ago! The sofa really isn't great and should be replaced straight away.
Also an information sheet would be useful telling you were local shops are etc although with wifi there is a work around.
Downstairs bedroom also much cooler so we recommend sleeping there.

The Villa is absolutely beautiful with spectacular views of the city of Peitrasanta below. Some mornings looking out, you are above the clouds. The downside is It is a 20 minute drive to get down the mountain with a lot of hair pin turns on a narrow road, they do have guard rails in some places along the way. They now have enclosed the lower patio with glass/ sliders. I would recommend they put the screens in the sliders. There was a wonderful breeze sitting there with the sliders open but the flys during the day & mosquitoes at night were very annoying. The pool was heavenly to have at the end of the day. The owners were just wonderful, the interior & exterior was beautifully decorated, simple & elegent. You can see they take great pride in sharing their home. I would recommend this home to friends & family

Although the first time driving the road was a bit unnerving for those of us from the States, it was a normal mountain Italian road that was extremely fun to drive. The view from the Villa were breathtaking. We were happy with everything and although it is located in a very remote area, we were no more than a 15 minute drive from a lot of fun things to do.

The villa was very nice, clean, and comfortable. The proximity to Cortona was a bit farther than expected. It's a good 15 minutes drive into town, I was under the impression that it was about a 15 minute walk into town. Other than that, it was a wonderful retreat. We enjoyed our stay immensely. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking.
