Customer Reviews
Overall:
Wonderful
Enjoyed Most:
Location was perfect for short trips to Florence, Siena, Greve, San Gimignano, and other beautiful hilltop towns.
Enjoyed Least:
Entrance to property was a bit difficult to find the first time.
Surrounding Area:
Beautiful view of hills and olive groves. Beautiful sunsets.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Villa was right next to an excellent restaurant. Small town of San Donato in Poggio was within walking distance and had two other good restaurants and a small grocery store.
Tips or Restaurants:
There is a hilltop restaurant in Volpaia that I would highly recommend. Beautiful view and delicious food.
Directions:
Directions were fine (Follow emailed directions from the company)
Check In Out:
Went smoothly.

Overall:
The villa was beautiful and extremely well maintained. The owners responded promptly when questions arose and were respectful of our privacy. Our overall experience was excellent and I would enthusiastically recommend this villa to all my family and friends.
Enjoyed Most:
The weather was extremely hot and humid so we much appreciated the excellent air conditioning. But the beautiful pool was my favourite experience - it was cool and clean, surrounded by beautiful landscaping and excellent views of the surrounding countryside.
Enjoyed Least:
We were unable to use the ping pong table because it was situated in full sun with no shade protection.
Surrounding Area:
We loved the views of the surrounding vineyards and enjoyed walking to the nearest town. We drove to Volterra, to San Gimignano and to local markets. We visited a nearby winery for a wine and olive oil tasting.
Nearby Events or Locales:
The town of San Donato in Poggio was only a kilometre away and we walked there several times. We bought most of our food there. We also ate our last meal there at an excellent restaurant where the tables were placed outside in the narrow street - was a delightful experience.
Tips or Restaurants:
The villa and the kitchen were extremely well equipped. We had everything we needed. The charming restaurant we found in San Donato was called Antica Trattoria La Toppa - the food was excellent and the prices were reasonable.
Directions:
The directions seemed pretty good but we came by taxi. The driver did use a GPS but had some difficulty locating the villa.
Check In Out:
Check in and check out both went very smoothly because Julia was extremely helpful and spoke adequate english.

Overall:
This is a very high quality villa in an beautiful area. Every aspect of this villa was first-rate. We were on site with 10 persons total - everyone agreed that the experience was beyond expectation. I would highly recommend this villa to everyone, and would definitely visit again.
Enjoyed Most:
Beautiful reno of an ancient property. Perfectly re-done. Air conditioning, great plumbing, excellent pool. All aspects of this were first class.
Enjoyed Least:
Needs a knife sharpener and a heavy duty corkscrew. Seriously. There was very little not to like about this villa.
Surrounding Area:
Fabulous views. Great sun. Beautiful evenings and nights! Wine tours and markets within short drive. Well outfitted supermarket and restaurants within walking distance.
Nearby Events or Locales:
San Donato in Poggio is a five minute walk from the villa.
Tips or Restaurants:
Antica Trattoria la Toppa was a fun place to eat. In the summer evenings, they set up all the tables outside. Great food and staff!
Co-0p Supermarket is nearby, too. Shop there and cook at the villa.
The butcher shop in town was excellent, too.
Directions:
The directions are very good, but you must follow the side road just a little further to see the property number.
Check In Out:
Check in and out was easy. In English. The owner helped some of us to find transportation to Florence after checkout. Very grateful for this. All the staff on site were friendly.
