Spending at Podere Il Doccio proved itself to be one of the best holiday options we've ever taken. First and foremost there are Marina and Francesco - the owners - and their family. Unbelievably generous, kind and loving people. Then there is the property - beautiful. isolated, tranquil, inspiring and inducing peace of mind.

Prima woning in mooie, rustige omgeving. Alleen de twee bedden op de overloop/vide was wat minder.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Great home in beautiful, peaceful setting. Only the two beds on the landing / loft were not so good.

Our stay at Villa Carolina was very memorable. The agency Easy Reserve was so efficient and very responsive to emails and any questions we had. Lucia and Gabriele are wonderful people along with their beautiful daughter Carolina. Their hospitality was very much appreciated.

When we first arrived, they made us feel right at home with a welcome coffee along with wines from the region for dinner that night. Gabriele was quite helpful with orienting us and suggesting itineraries for us. One morning, he drove us to the starting point of our Chianti tour which was great. Another time, they suggested we visit Monteriggioni, Colle Val d'Elsa and Volterra - which turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! The location of the villa is ideal for taking day trips - we also visited Siena, Florence, Chianti, San Gimignano, Montalcino, etc. with our car rental which is an obvious "must" in this area.

The villa itself was very beautiful and clean, and had all the necessities required. We ate like royalty one night when Lucia made dinner - salumi platters and bruschettas with tomatoes from the villa garden, pastas, bistecca fiorentina, sausages and salads, and biscotti with Vin Santo from the region to top all that off - sublime!

There is just one complaint - that seven days went by as fast as they did! We would recommend Lucia and Gabriele's Villa Carolina to anyone thinking of renting a villa in the Tuscany area.

We stayed at Villa Lavacchio in 2010 and returned this year for 2 weeks. It is a beautiful property and the location near Montalcino is spectacular. Very private with wonderful views of nearby Camigliano and Banfi Castle. It is a very comfortable villa with lots of space for a group to spread out. The pool is located on a hill overlooking the villa and the nearby valleys, and is a great vantage point for spectacular sunsets. The caretaker of the property, Tiziana, is wonderful and also a great cook. I highly recommend this property and will continue to return for my holidays in Tuscany.
