le seul véritable probleme est la présence de 3 petits chiens appartenant aux proprietaires, qui restent dehors la nuit et aboient sans cesse ce qui empeche de dormir

This property was absolutely perfect - just as described on the web site. It was immaculate and well equipped and maintained. This was a special holiday for our family as we celebrated my husband's 60th. birthday whilst there. Everyone, including our young grandchildren, declared it a huge success. We have absolutely no complaints only fantastic memories.

we had a very good stay at podere il doccio (ocra). it is a well equipped comfortable stay. The owners are terrific, very kind and helpful. we enjoyed the wine tasting and cooking experience...

when you do not like dogs at all, it is not a good idea to visit podere il doccio. the internet connection in casa ocra is not so good... only works properly at the bedroom window.

Propriétaire parlant exclusivement italien mais très gentil
Un lave vaisselle et un lave linge seraient un plus
Attention aux moustiques, il est indispensable de se protéger

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Owner speaks only Italian, but very nice.
A dishwasher and a washing machine would have been a plus
Beware of mosquitoes, it is essential to protect oneself.

We stayed in June and although it was very hot and sunny while we were there the Villa was usually pleasant even without air conditioning. We stayed in the largest apartment, Salario, with 6 adults. The master suite with large bedroom with antiques and beautiful bath is by far the best room, but the other two bedrooms that share a bath are also nice. They were fine for my adult children and their friends.
We very much enjoyed the area and the fact that the Villa is part of a working farm, the owners breed Arabian Horses and on our last night there we saw a horse born--a truly unique experience. Stephania and Alexandro were nothing but accommodating and the dinner cooked on site was to die for. Buonconvento is a pretty convenient town with good train service. Be prepared in this area for dirt roads with lots of hills and if you rent a car likely a stick shift. We saw Sienna, Montalcino, Florence and much more. A wonderful vacation. Note there is a rooster who makes his presence known very early in the morning--but we got used to him. A family with younger children would find the animals just as charming as we did. And the Pool is to die for!!
