Traditional house with beautifully designed and maintained garden and pool area with a splendid view across a nature reserve where you can spot birds, butterflies, hares, foxes and even the wild boar which are a key feature of local cuisine. Andrea is a welcoming host and patient with people who try to speak Italian (he only speaks Italian). Clearly the owners have reacted to previous negative comments about lack of mosquito netting (there is netting on a window in each of the three bedrooms) and road maintenance. Access is via a country track and the whole ascent is fine if you take it slowly and carefully. Easy to access Siena and Florence from the house and there are many excellent restaurants in the area. NB it was VERY hot when we were there but there are fans for each bedroom.

“This accommodation is in a very dangerous location to access by car and would not suit all drivers”

We were a party of 3 and we found the access to the accommodation so dangerous to drive that we did not accept the key and did not stay in this accommodation. We felt we had no choice but to find alternative accommodation.
