detached villa with private pool and garden

We had a very good time here, perfect location and just a 5 minute walk into Castellina with its lovely restaurant's, wine tasting and shops . The outdoor of the property is perfect,lovely swimming pool and glorious views all around. Always kept clean by Federicos father . Inside the decor could do with an update, especially the bathroom. However, the cooking facilities were excellent and it was lovely to eat on the terrace by the pool. Just make sure you have insect repellent. The property isn’t easy to find as it’s through a car park but Federico met us and we followed him there. Overall an excellent property but be aware there is a final cleaning charge of 25 euros per person and a possible excess usage electricity charge. You also have to pay for the air con so all the additional fees do add up!Lovely location for getting around Tuscany and Siena is only half an hour away.

We had a lovely stay. The house is quit near the village but no to near. It is quiet at night. Any problems were fixed very fast. The house offers wonderful views along with a small but very clean pool. It is very near Siena and Florence which makes it an ideal base for trips

Upgrades needed Idyllic location. Wondering potential in this property. Would be amazing if had updated interior furnishing to match the outside of the property. Unfortunately, the property is not as listed. The heating is not able to heat the apartment, and we stayed the first week in October. Even with pre-empting the heating earlier in the day, it was cold, damp and uncomfortable. The only comfortable place to be inside was under the covers in bed. Additionally, it does not have a fireplace, nor 3 bedrooms, and the annex of two single beds on two levels is attached to the master and not the common area. Also, not listed is the surprise request for cleaning fees and advised on check in that we would be paying for electricity as well over and above what we previously paid. This is not listed in the VRBO listing in any way. Given that it was so cold, and running the basic reverse AC unit, it would end up costing a lot of money extra and we would still be uncomfortable. On day 3 we advised the host that we would not be staying the rest of the week, and why, and found a new location. We can see how this place could be nice in summer, but outside of warm days and nights, we do not recommend this place, unless the owner upgrades the heating situation, and has transparency on the add about the features and expectations.

Lovely property in beautiful surroundings We loved this property- very well equipped, lovely pool and great views. And, only a few minutes walk into the village with lovely bars restaurants and shops. A perfect location. The only thing that might cause an issue for some ( not for us) , is that the third bedroom is a mezzanine floor within the second bedroom with a very steep staircase. The only access to the bathroom from these rooms is either through the main bedroom or through the patio door and around the outside of the property. We definitely will want to stay there again.

Great relaxing family trip We had a wonderful time in the nice little house on the quiet edge of a lively village, with spectacular Tuscany scenery, a super clean pool and friendly and helpful owners. Both Florence and Siena are fully worth a trip, or you just stay at the house for perfect relaxing.

Great stay This house in castellina is an absolute dream. It’s perfectly located next to Castellina. The interior is perfect, the view is great and the host is very helpful and quick to respond if there is any problem. We came with our 1 year old and everything was there for us to have a good vacation as a young family. High chair, baby bed und everything you need Can definetly recommend!
