A magic place


A family group of 9 adults, we were in occupation for two weeks. We were utterly charmed with the house, its setting and the location, which was perfect for our multiple needs. Being within walking distance of the town centre of Sovicille, with its shops, restaurant and bars, plus, significantly. its wonderful public transport access to Siena was an enormous benefit. We loved exploring the house and its garden, watching the wildlife, revelling in the views, and then exploring the area. Siena was the ideal centre for activities, and we didn\'t even bother visiting Florence in the end. Owner Bernhard and his niece Clara, who cares for the house, now feel like friends whom we would like to meet up with. They looked after us really well. Thank you so much for our wonderful holiday!

Great place for a family holiday


This place was as described - rustic old villa in a lovely setting. The pool was great and kept the kids amused for many hours. Plenty of space in the house itself, and a good range of bedrooms and bathrooms. We used the house as a base for visits to Siena, Florence and other towns nearby. The nearest big supermarket was only a few minutes drive away and had everything we needed. The local restaurant was good for eating in, as well as take away pizzas. Everyone really enjoyed their stay.

WONDERFUL 1 BR CONDO. VERY LARGE. GREAT LOCATION.


My family of 11 had a magnificent time in Tuscany. Helene prepared a wonderful Italian dinner on one night of our stay and was the first to greet us when we arrived. The house was located where we could easily drive to and enjoy many of the Tuscany towns like Montereggioni, Siena, and Florence. Thanks also to Angelika and Clara, who were also available at times to answer any questions we might have had about the house or area.
