Villa Carolina was an outstanding place to spend a vacation. The Villa is large and absolutely spotless. We were a group of six and never felt crowded at all. The grounds and pool area are immaculate and it was so wonderful to enjoy our meals outside overlooking the beautiful scenery.

Gabriele and Lucia were very welcoming and enthusiastically showed us around the Villa. Throughout our stay they brought us little treats--peaches from their tree, peppers--and the meal we had prepared by Lucia was incredible.

The location is great for touring Tuscany by car, and there is a train station in nearby Poggibonsi as well.

We have stayed in numerous villas throughout our travels but Villa Carolina was by far the best! We highly recommend it.

Wegbeschreibung war sehr Schlecht beschrieben.Wir haben die Unterkunft erst am Sonntag gefunden.Auch die Einheimischen wussten nicht genau wo es war der eine sagte da oben der ander da unten,auch mit dem Tel. wussten wir nicht wie es funkioniert.Am anderen Tag konnte half uns eine Frau von den Hotel wo wir Uebernachten mussten da wir bis 21Uhr gesucht hatten.Nun wenn man wusste wo war es nicht mehr schwer zu finden. Mann hätte nun bei der Beschreibung schreiben sollen nach 150m links abbiegen dann wäre es klar gewesen, nicht nach 150m haben sie das Ziel erreicht,den da standen wir ja auf der Srasse, oder ein Wegweiser wäre auch gut gewesen.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] The itinerary desciption was very bad. We did not find the accommodation until Sunday. Even the locals did not know exactly where it was, one of them said up there, the other down there, even with the phone we did not know how it worked. The next day the lady in the hotel where we had to stay overnight because we were looking tuntil 9 pm helped us. Well if you knew where it was, it's not hard to find. They should have written in th itinerary to turn left after 150m then it would have been clear, not : after 150m you have reached the goal since you are along a road, or a sign post would have been good too.

We enjoyed our 9 days at Torre Di Vignale very much. Everything was as described, or BETTER!!! Ideal for large families/friends who want isolation in the Hills -- 15 minutes from Arezzo--provided you are self-sufficient in the sense that you are happy to cater for yourselves.

Beautiful Villa! This villa more than met our expectations - it was spacious, clean, quiet and centrally located. Monica (key holder) was wonderful and we booked her to come cook us an authentic Tuscan meal one night - it was fabulous. We loved the fact that we could walk into town every day and yet when we were at the villa, we felt like we were miles from anyone. It has all the amenities you could want - and the wifi connected easily and worked well. We will definitely recommend this property to our friends and hopefully we will be back one day to enjoy it again ourselves.
