Het uitzicht was in werkelijkheid nog mooier dan op de foto’s. Op elk moment van de dag is het anders. Je kan er naar blijven kijken. Ook mooi het uitzicht op San Gimignano!!! We werden vriendelijk ontvangen door Stefano, met een rondleiding door het huis. Er stond een welkomstpakket, waaronder eigen olijfolie en rode wijn vanaf hun eigen land! Het huis is comfortabel. Boven airco’s die het gedurende dag goed koel houden. Beneden is het wat koeler, soms de deur opengedaan ‘s nachts, dat was zeer aangenaam. Het zwembad was erg groot en heel lekker qua temperatuur. Er zijn genoeg ligbedjes en een grote parasol. Daarnaast is er ook een overdekt terras met weer prachtig uitzicht. Voor ons de meest fijne plek waar we geweest zijn in Toscane! Een aanrader is de Sentierelsa trail op twintig minuten rijden. Ook fijn dat er een supermarkt dichtbij is en heel veel eettentjes. Siena is ongeveer een half uur rijden en verder kun je allerlei kleine dorpjes bezoeken. Kortom een aanrader als je van het Toscaanse uitzicht ben rust houdt! ##### Lisanne D.

Pool is large and well maintained, house is clean and has everything you need, wifi OK, airco in the living areas. But no airco in the bedrooms, which at almost 40° like we had all week, requires the sunshades to be left closed all day to keep the heat out. So if you want to wake up to that gorgeous view: remember to open them before going to sleep. Access to the property by car can be challenging: very steep gravel road, even our SUV struggled to get up the road. The small town of Tavarnelle is only 1km away with a supermarket, restaurants, bakery, everything you need. Vespa rental also available there (a must!). Florence, Siena: all within 30min of driving. Abundance of vineyards and wine tasting in the region. The area is a bikers dream (but you better be in good shape, the hills are tasty). Owner speaks english, is very friendly and helpful, you share the pool with them but they are very discreet, they only used it while we were out. Only regret: we totally forgot about the olive oil and bottle of wine we received at arrival... I guess we'll have to come back one day to finally taste what they produce... ##### Dirk M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### STEPHANIE U. 19 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vue magnifique sur la Campagne Toscane Séjour très agréable.

A perfect place to relax and unwind. The villa had everything we needed, a great pool and close to the local town. A perfect location to explore Tuscany and also spend lazy days. The host was extremely friendly and helpful, and it was lovely to receive the welcome pack and bottle of wine! We had a fabulous holiday and did not want to leave! Would highly recommend! ##### Andrew F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela C. 15 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Heaven on Earth Our stay at Casa Ida was perfection. When the worst part about the your vacation is having to learn all the different light switches, it's a good sign. Stefano and Tommasso and their family were so helpful answering any questions or problems we had with learning the ins and outs of european appliances. Even though we were there before the pool was opened for the season, the poolside space - from the outdoor cook-fire (which was graciously set up for us when we asked to use it) to the lunch table looking out over the hillside - and the whole property was gorgeous. The view from the main room and the bedrooms is jaw-droppingly stunning. The location is a great home base to drive through the hills of Toscana and visit other wonderful places like Pisa, Sienna, Sam Gimignano, Arezzo, Montepulciano, etc. We already are dreaming of coming back to stay again. Really a wonderful home to stay in and explore Toscana. Just a note, the WiFi signal didn't reach the downstairs bedroom - only the upstairs floor, but we weren't complaining about unplugging more during our stay. ##### Angela C.

Ebenfalls standen bei unserer Ankunft im Badezimmer Kosmetikprodukte – gleich einem Hotelservice – bereit. Casa Lucia liegt traumhaft und ruhig inmitten der Weinberge und Olivenhainen. Die Aussicht auf die Hügellandschaft der Toskana und bis nach San Gimignano ist fantastisch. Die Villa ist perfekt ausgestattet; der Innen- sowie Aussenbereich sehr gepflegt. Als Ausgangspunkt ist der Ort bestens geeignet, da zentral gelegen. In kurzer Zeit gut erreichbar sind u. a. Florenz, Siena, Castellina in Chianti, Radda in Chianti, San Gimignano (= sehr empfehlenswert!!!) und Volpaia. Es war ein schöner Aufenthalt in der Toskana resp. in der Casa Lucia. Stefano ist ein sehr netter, aufmerksamer und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Das Olivenöl und der Wein stammt aus der eigenen Familienproduktion; wirklich köstlich und von ausgezeichneter Qualität. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert. Danke, Stefano und Familie. ##### Brigitte C.

The air conditioning upstairs was very welcome while the bedrooms downstairs remained lovely and cool. The swimming pool is wonderful. Stefano and his family were so welcoming and the family wine and beautiful olive oil were thoroughly enjoyed. The villa is in the perfect location to explore this area of Tuscany. Sightseeing: We visited San Gimignano, Volterra, Greve in Chianti & Castellina in Chianti. Pienza and Bagno Vignoni were also worth visiting . On Tuesday night in Tavernelle Val Di Pesa during the summer months all restaurants spill out into the street at night creating a really lovely atmosphere. We loved every minute at Casa Lucia and would happily return. ##### Leslie A.
