Eine wunderschöne,gepflegte Anlage, großzügige Zimmeraufteilung, Bäder alle Top. Fernseherin jedem Schlafzimmer, zusätzlich je einen im Wohn,-und Esszimmer, Wintergarten lädt zum Verweilen ein. Ein großes Lob, an die beiden Damen, die uns betreuten: freundlich, zuvorkommend,hilfsbereit, obwohl wir in der italienischen Sprache nicht sattelfest sind und sie auch kein englisch konnten. Wir waren 10 Personen und haben diesen Aufenthalt wirklich genossen. Nähe des Golfplatzes Castelfalfi war super. Aber auch die vorhandenen Freizzeitmöglichkeiten, wie Schwimmbad, Tennis, Tischfussball, Tischtennis, die Bocciasandbahn spazieren am Gelände waren sehr schön. Gerne wieder.Ciao

We were very pleased with our stay at ABSL! We were a large group - 10 people including my parents, my sister's family and our family, including 3 young kids under 5. The property was beautiful and the accommodations more than met our needs. We stayed in the main villa which had 4 spacious bedrooms and one smaller single room (which is exactly what we required). The kitchen easily fit our entire group for dinner. We ate one meal at the restaurant downstairs and everyone felt that the meal was one of the culinary highlights of our 2 week trip to Italy. The grounds had a small playarea that was ideal for our young children, and a beautiful pool (it was a little too chilly in early October, but we took a couple of dips nonetheless!). The location of the Villa is ideal for short day trips to Tuscan villages such as Sienna, Volterra, San Gimignano or the Chianti District. Not hard to get to Pisa or Florence either. We would happily return.

Wir hatten 1 wunderschönen Familien-Urlaub in 1 sehr netten u
familienfreundlichen Toscana- Unterkunft.
Wir konnten von der Frühstücks-Terrasse zum Swimmingpool mit unseren
spielenden Kindern hinuntersehen, - wir hatten für unsere Bedürfnisse mit
Kindern unterschiedlichsten Alters das ideale Ferienhaus gefunden.
Ich war freudigst überrascht, wie großzügig die Ferien-Unterkunft mit allen
wichtigen Gebrauchsgegenständen eingerichtet war. Alles war reichlich
vorhanden, Geschirrtücher, Geschirr, Besteck, sogar Flaschen-u Dosenöffner,
- genügend WC-Papier, Besen, Putzlappen….- sogar Rest-Geschirrmittel, Salz,
Zucker, Mehl, Öl waren noch von den Vorgängern vorhanden, das erlebte ich
nur hier u in keiner anderen Ferien- Unterkunft!

Die Hausbesitzerin war sehr nett u sympathisch, wir sahen sie mehrmals am
Tage, wenn sie im nächstliegenden Weingarten mit ihren Kindern arbeitete.
Sie lud uns ein, bei der Weinlese mit unseren Kindern mit zuhelfen. Die
Kinder schnitten mit Begeisterung die Trauben ab, am meisten Ausdauer zeigte
aber der 2-jährige Theo, der trotz Hitze noch immer ernten wollte, obwohl
die größeren Kinder schon im Swimmingpool zur Abkühlung waren.

Auch die anderen Mieter waren sehr nett – hier fanden sich Menschen mit
ähnlichen Urlaubsbedürfnissen zusammen, - auch die kinderlosen Feriengäste
hatten Spaß an den hier spielenden Kindern u fühlten sich nicht gestört,
sondern nahmen wohlwollenden Kontakt zu unseren Kindern auf.

This great old villa was a good choice for our group of 12 cyclists. Lots of room, plenty of bedrooms, and a great place for the bikes and cars. The dining room is easily the best space in the villa, 12 for dinner with plenty of room left over. All the china, silverware and glasses matched so the table set for dinner was a great sight. The wine (maybe from the owner's vineyard) was an nice addition, just have a bottle from the sideboard and they add it to the settlement at the end. The views are spectacular and those that used the pool said it was a wonderful place. The caretaker offered her cooking services so we did that one night and it was a great meal at a great price. One negative is the beds. We stayed in the "master bedroom" and the bed was old and collapsing, quite a disappointment for a week's stay. I thought ours might be the only worn out bed but others had the same situation. The other tacky parts of the villa could easily be accepted as "quaint" and old but worn out beds aren't much fun after a day of cycling. I think the internet service is spotty in rural Italy overall but in the villa the only access point was in the kitchen and it only worked in the kitchen. On the bright side, it did create a good group gathering place! The wine bistro around the corner was really nice after a day's ride, the staff was great and the wine very good. If they take care of the bed issue we'd all come back for another trip.
