Renter: Helen B. (Newark, United Kingdom).

Renter Rating: 5/5.

Fantastic house set among the Tuscan hills with great views. The house is large enough to accommodate a family of 7 comfortably, and is well equipped to ensure your stay is a great experience.
There is a barbecue area & pizza oven in the back garden with a good seating area as well as a under cover patio area at the front of the house- both very versatile.
The pool is a good size and is surrounded by a really large garden in fact it was such a good pool we spent more of our time just enjoying lazing around than we did sight seeing. I would thoroughly recommend this house, it is near to a good supermarket and it is very easy to visit places such as Florence, Pisa and Lucca which was about a 20 minute drive.

The villa looked just like in the pictures! It was a very relaxing Tuscany experience.
The owner was also super nice and helpful.
However, while we enjoyed it very much overall, it too some time for us to adjust, and there are some important details which are not mentioned in the villa's description:
There is a 10-15 minutes drive up a narrow, steep gravel road, which isn't fun at all at night (especially after a lot of wine).
The water in the villa are drawn from the local well, and are full of scale, which makes them non drinkable, so you have to buy a lot of water bottles.
Only one bath out of the 4 is actually usable (one has no water pressure at all, and two are just big tubs).
The pool and the external dining area are full of bees and hornets, which makes it pretty unpleasant to stay for a long time.
There's almost no light inside the villa, even on sunny days with all the windows open.
If you want to use any of the cool activities (private chef or wine tour), you have to book it at least a month in advance with the owner (we had no idea and so missed on both).
Since we were aiming for the rural experience in the first place, we had a pretty good time. We were just a bit disappointed all of these issues weren't mentioned at all in the website, so.. There you go ????
