Tranquil splendid hideaway only minutes from Greve in Chianti. A well kept and cozy house just like we had hoped for. All facilities available in and around the house. We cooked great meals as well as dined at great recommendations left by the house owner. Certainly a place to return to.

Location fantastica immersa nel verde, vista mozzafiato e ospitalità cortese.
Immersi nel silenzio più assoluto, il massimo del rumore sono i galoppi dei cavalli o i grugniti dei cinghiali che ogni tanto si avvicinano alla proprietà.
Per raggiungere il podere ci sono circa 2,5 km di strada sterrata ben tenuta. Gli appartamenti sono ben curati e in tipico stile campagnolo.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Fantastic location surrounded by nature, stunning views and gracious hospitality.
Immersed in absolute silence, the only noises are the gallop of the horses or the grunts of wild boars that occasionally come close to the property.
To reach the farm there are about 2.5 km of well maintained gravel road. The apartments are well maintained and in typical country style.

Substantial accommodation. Great pool and tennis court. Easy access to local towns, shops and restaurants. Ideally you need to take all three flats as many of the facilities are communal.

We just had a wonderful stay in Tuscany at Cerretalta villa and it was beyond perfect for our daily needs and vacation wishes. It's so close to everything (groceries, hilltop towns, etc.), yet far enough away (about 2km down a gravel road) that it feels truly private. The pool was used everyday by all and the kitchen(s) had everything we could possibly need/use, plus more. The bedrooms were actually spacious with air conditioning in each and the views were lovely in every direction. Every single member of our group (of which there were 9 of us) highly recommend Cerretalta, especially if you're interested in exploring the Siena/Montalcino/Pienza region. We have memories that will last a lifetime!

Sehr schöne Villa in abgelegener Lage. Die Wegbeschreibung, die man im Voucher bekommt, führt einen relativ gut direkt ans Ziel.
Das Anwesen selbst ist an einem Hang gelegen, wobei man vom Pool aus direkt über die hügelige Landschaft der Toskana (und in einen tollen Sonnenuntergang) blicken kann. Die Besitzer des Hauses wohnen auch auf dem Grundstück und stehen bei Fragen/Problemen immer bereit oder geben Tipps für Ausflüge/Essensmöglichkeiten.
Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es im nächsten Ort (Paterno) in Form eines kleinen Lebensmittelgeschäfts. Für die größeren Erledigungen empfiehlt sich die Fahrt nach Pontassieve in einen Coop-Markt, bei dem man dann wirklich alles bekommt.
Nach Florenz sind es ca 45 Min mit dem Auto. Theoretisch könnte man auch mit Öffentlichen dahin kommen, aber wir haben dann trotz einiger eindringlicher Warnungen aufgrund des "höllischen Verkehrs" dort das eigene Fahrzeug gewählt... naja, wer zB in München einen Parkplatz findet, wird sich in Florenz auch nicht so schwer tun; zur Not parkt man halt einige Straßen vom Zentrum entfernt und geht die paar Meter zu Fuß in die Altstadt.
Alles in allem waren wir sehr zufrieden mit der Villa und unserem Reiseziel ingesamt!
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Very nice villa in a secluded location. The directions you get with the voucher carry you good and directly to your destination.
The property itself is situated on a hill, and from the pool you can look right across the rolling countryside of Tuscany (at a great sunset). The owners live on spot and are always at your disposal for questions/problems or give advice on trips/food facilities.
There are shopping facilities in the next town (Paterno) in the form of a small grocery store. For the larger shopping it is worth a trip to Pontassieve in a Coop market, where you really get everything is recommended.
Florence is about 45 minutes by car. Theoretically, one could also reach the town by public transports, but we have then chosen to go there with our own vehicle, despite some warnings due to the "hellish traffic" ... well, who, for example, found a parking space in Munich, is also not that hard to do the samein Florence; if it is needed, you can park just a few streets away from the center and it is then a few meters walk to the old town.
All in all we were very happy with the villa and our destination in general!

Les points positifs : très belle maison, grande et bien située (à quelques km -moins de 10- de la mer). Une vue à couper le souffle. Une piscine rien que pour nous. Le personnel très accueillant, à l\'écoute. Les points négatifs : équipement était un peu juste en cuisine (manque de casseroles, de poëlles, de couverts, pas de séchoir à linge). La 3ème chambre (sous les combles) : impossible d\'y dormir car trop chaud et pas de rideau ou store sur une fenêtre, donc trop de lumière très tôt le matin et donc, pas de grasse matinée. Nous avons évoqué ces points à la personne qui nous a accueillis, elle en a bien pris note. Si ces points négatifs sont résolus, c\'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrons l\'été prochain.

We had a wonderful time at the Badia. Our apartment was the 'Magnolia', which was exactly what the pictures promised. The gardens are beautiful, the pool relaxing. The property is well kept; everybody is very friendly. Breakfast was delicious.
Definitely, a place I would recommend to others.

Das Haus und die Anlage entsprechen genau den Angaben im Internet. Es ist sehr abgelegen und ruhig. Vom Pool aus hat man einen guten Ausblick auf die toskanischen Hügel. Die Ausstattung ist rustikal, alles Nötige (bis auf eine Kaffeemaschine) ist vorhanden. Die Eigentümer sind sehr bemüht und nett, sprechen allerdings nur italienisch. Einmal wöchentlich veranstalten sie für ihre Gäste einen toskanischen Abend. Wir können das Haus nur weiterempfehlen.
