This was an absolutely perfect place. Just minutes to Pisa. It was clean and well maintained with upscale details. It was all updated yet it kept in style with it old world charm of Italy's countryside. I would recommend it to everyone.

New Review Submitted for Fontedelsalcio: Zi'momo located in Cinigiano, Tuscany, Italy.

Review Details:
Schönes kleines Haus, schöne Lage, nette Vermieter (aber Sprachbarriere).
Für Erholungsurlaub weitab der üblichen Touristenströme, aber doch nah zwischen Meer und Siena gelegen ein klarer Tipp!
Kleines Manko: Bad sehr klein und unpraktisch, Heizung teilweise defekt _ dafür Kamin-Nutzung (Holz vor Ort ohne Zusatzkosten) – sehr romantisch;–)
Ärgerlich: Internetzugang wird extra berechnet (10 Euro/Woche) wireless – Verbindung aber extrem störanfällig und superlangsam – also eigentlich nicht zu gebrauchen.
Aber im urlaub muss man ja nicht immer online sein (also gar nicht erst buchen;–)
Sonst sehr schön!
Kleiner Tipp am Rande: Restaurant RINTOCCO in Cinigiano besuchen – lohnt sich!!!

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Lovely little house, nice location, nice landlord (but linguistic barrier). For a relaxing holiday far from the usual flow of tourists, yet close to Siena and the seaside: it's a good hint!
Small drawback: bathroom very small and impractical, heating partially defective _ in its place there is the fireplace-use (wood on site at no additional cost) - very romantic. Annoying: wireless Internet access will be charged extra (10 € / week) - but the connection is extremely susceptible to interference and super slow - that is actually not to be used. But on holiday you have not to be always online (otherwise do not book it.
All in all very nice!
Small hint: go to the Restaurant RINTOCCO in Cinigiano: it is worth to be visited!

This was a great Villa, in a fantastic area. Lots to explore and fresh good food available everywhere.
Great views from the Villa, and the Owner deserves a special mention - he went out of his way to show us around.
We will be going back - next time we are in Italy..

Tolle Lage mit einem wunderschönen Blick in die Weite. Das Haus liegt sehr romantisch auf einer Anhöhe, die Naturstrasse ist für geübte Fahrer kein Problem, Geländewagen bevorzugt. Sehr ruhig und mit allem Komfort ausgestattet. Anfang Oktober konnte man den Pool noch benutzen. Wir haben die Ruhe und die Freiheit mit unseren Hunden sehr genossen. Die Inhaberin ist überaus freundlich und hat sogar für uns eingekauft und gekocht, Italienisch Kentnisse sind von Vorteil. Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Great location with a beautiful view into the distance. The house is very romantic on a hill, the gravel road is no problem for experienced riders, preferable with off-road vehicles. Very quiet and equipped with every comfort. In early October you could still use the pool. We have enjoyed the peace and freedom with our dogs very much. The owner is extremely friendly and has even made some shopping and cooked for us; some knowledge of Italian language is an advantage. Overall, highly recommended.

Review Details:
We ended up getting a bigger place than that onebut managed by the same person (a 2 bedroom 1 bath with a terrace and panoramic view also). The place was very clean and well equiped. It was a bit cold since we went in late October BUT the heat was included so one the heaters on it was fine. It was very quiet and the bed are very fonfortable. I would defenitly stay there again! Cortona is an adorable town and perfectly located if you want to spend time in the wine region of Montepulciano and Montalcino BUT is more lively in the low season that the other towns. Try the wine bar at the entrance of town and ask for Daniello- he is fantastic and will advice you well on which wine and cheese to taste and buy. =)
