We had a wonderful stay at Ca De Tonco. The Villa is situated in a remote location up in the Tuscan hills.
The drive to the Villa along the steep and windy gravel track takes a bit of getting used to, but the rewards are considerable, as you find yourself truly secluded without any disturbances once you arrive at Ca De Tonco. I grew to enjoy the drive and there are some stunning views of the valley as you reach the higher ground along the path.
The views from the Villa need to be experienced to be believed. They are both breathtaking and peaceful. The Villa itself has everything you need to enjoy yourself, with a pool, table tennis table, hammock and BBQ available. The size of the Villa was perfect for a family of 4 like ours. Our host Giulia was helpful and friendly and the provision of coal and firefighters for the BBQ was a nice touch.
Florence is around 1 hour 20 minutes away, so were able to enjoy a day out there as a family (we recommend parking at Villa Costanza and getting the tram into Florence). Arezzo is also highly recommended and around 30 minutes drive from the Villa. The higher parts of Arezzo have gorgeous views of the surrounding landscape, and there was a buzzing atmosphere in the town square when we visited on a Friday evening.
There are plenty of supermarkets in the nearby area, including the gigantic Co op. The local ingredients are fantastic, with the watermelon and lemons delicious in August when we visited.
We had an amazing holiday and we would definitely stay again at Ca De Tonco.
