The villa was lovely and each of the 5 bedrooms and baths were charming and supplied with luxury linens and toiletries. The kitchen was well equipped and the gathering areas, terrace and pool most attractive and well maintained. Caterina, the house manager, came by every day and took us grocery shopping twice since the COOPs( grocery stores) were hidden away frequently without parking nearby. Mid week she and her crew changed out all the linens and made sure we had what we needed. On arrival she had orange juice and Prosecco at hand to welcome us. She was a font of all information including helping us find CNN on the TV. We spent our days traveling easily to Siena, Florence, Radda, Greve, and San Giminango. The grounds of the villa were fragrant with lavender and rosemary and there were pots of thyme and basil for our culinary needs. The tiny town of Vertine was quaintly charming and the nearby town of Gaiole had good shopping for wine, cheese and meat. While there were only 5 of us the house would have been just as suitable for 5 couples. The five ladies from America had a wonderful week.

We loved the villa and the gardens. Perfect location, close to Montalcino and other towns like Pienza and Siena. Pool was lovely and the views spectacular. Would definitely recommend it for three couples or a family.

Alleinstehendes Toskanaferienhaus mit schöner Aussicht, groß, geräumig und schön eingerichtet. Gepflegter privater Pool, gute Parkmöglichkeit sowie große Veranda. Sehr freundlicher, flexibler und zuvorkommender Besitzer, aber spricht nahezu kein Englisch oder Deutsch, Verständigung dennoch trotzdem gut möglich. Weiter zu empfehlen!

Wer es einsam, romantisch, idyllisch und gepflegt haben möchte, der ist an diesem Ort richtig. Man kann sich wunderbar erholen, sieht schöne Sonnenuntergänge und ist ganz für sich.
Das Haus wirkt sauber und großzügig, der Pool ist fantstasch, die Aussicht herrlich, es geht meist ein Lüftchen, so dass es auch im August wunderbar ist. Ameisen finden manchmal den Weg in die Küche, wenn man Essen liegen lässt, aber keine Mücken. Die Küche könnte entwas großzügiger ausgestattet werden: es fehlen leider Toaster, Wasserkocher, Kaffeemaschine, und die großen Teller passen nicht in den Geschirrspüler, aber auch der Backofen toastet und ein Topf lässt Wasser kochen....
Zweimal in der Woche kam eine Dame zum Saubermachen, samstags wurde die Bettwäsche gewechselt und der Pool gereinigt - herrlich!
Wir waren mit vier Kindern dort - es war perfekt.
Palaia ist ein niedlicher historischer Ort mit Restaurant, Supermarkt, Post und kleinen Lädchen.
Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dort wieder hinzufahren und kann die Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen.

Mooie plek vlakbij Siena. Groot appartement op 2e verdieping met zeer veel voorzieningen en een loggia met een schitterende uitzicht over Toscaanse heuvels enerzijds en de prachtige tuin anderzijds. De inrichting is stijlvol, met antieke meubels tot zelfs een linnen afdroogdoek en schortje. Alles was zeer goed voorbereid door de gastvrije en sympathieke eigenaar. Klein supermarktje en bus naar Siena (10 min) om de hoek. Olijfolie van eigen bodem. Kortom zeer fijne plek waar we graag terug komen.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Nice place near Siena. Large apartment on the 2nd floor with a lot of amenities and a loggia with stunning views over Tuscan hills on the one side and the beautiful garden on the other. The decor is stylish, with antique furniture to even a linen teatowel and apron. Everything was very well prepared by the hospitable and sympathetic owner. Small supermarket and bus to Siena (10 min) around the corner. Olive oil of own soil. Overall very nice place we would love to come back.
