We enjoyed our two-weeks stay in this well equipped accommodation. It's a bit off the famous tourist spots but everything is within driving range, either by car or by train. Unfortunately we didn't meet Simone in person but he answered all questions within a few minutes via mail. We can definitely recommend this place.
If I could give six starts, I would! What a lovely house with a beautiful garden and the most amazing view over the Tuscan hills.
Castelfeanco di Sopra is a cozy small town, with some restaurants and two smaller supermarkets. Trips from there to Firenze, Siena, Arezzo, Pisa and other places can easily be done.
I highly recommend! Simone was a great host
We were here for just over 8 weeks and had a wonderful stay. Simone is a brilliant host. Nothing was too much trouble and he answered our queries very promptly. He even found me someone to teach me Italian, which was amazing. The house is lovely, well stocked and has everything you need. We were here in late winter and it is very warm and cosy. The garden is lovely with amazing views and well fenced, which was great for our dogs. Jill B's review is very accurate and tells you all you need to know about the village. The shop is really only a minute walk to the end of the road and is also well stocked. The neighbours (and villagers) are very friendly and so helpful.
Our immediate neighbour, Franco, gave us a great home-made tomato pasta sauce to try - delicious.
The house is well situated to visit all the scenic towns and we went to Florence, Siena and explored some of the outlying villages. There are some amazing walks up in the mountains and La Balze is a must.
Sadly, the Coronavirus bug hit Italy in the middle of our stay and further exploration had to be curtailed. We ended up having to leave a little earlier than planned, which we very sad about. We can't wait to visit again as soon as the situation improves. Thank you so much Simone.
We hebben enorm genoten van de prachtige en omheinde tuin aan doodlopend straatje. Huisje van alle gemakken voorzien. Hond is welkom en kan vrij in de tuin bewegen. De Balze wandeling is zeer de moeite waard en op loopafstand. De verhuurder maar ook de buurman zijn zeer behulpzaam. Gezellig dorp, waar de winkel en bakker op korte loop afstand zijn. Ook leuk marktje op vrijdag. Het natuurschoon, op de Balze na, zijn wel zichtbaar, wat lastiger te bezichtigen. Veel afgesloten, voor wandelen moesten we de auto in. In de omgeving diverse zwemwateren/meren bezocht, en Siena, Arezzo en Anghiari.
Prachtig huisje helemaal prive met uitzicht op de vallei. Qua comfort alles aanwezig in de keuken, grote badkamer met goede douche, goed slaapcomfort! alles te vinden in de buurt, supermarkt om de hoek en goede restaurantjes en pizzeria op loopafstand. Enige minpunt zijn de muggen die alom vertegenwoordigd zijn,niet alleen in castelfranco di sopra maar bijna overal in italie dus alvast muggenspul inslagen. Topvakantie!
Selten ein so sauberes aber sicher kein so gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus bewohnt. Die Lage ist einmalig und der Ort absolut sympathisch. Wir kรถnnen dieses Objekt nur weiterempfehlen.
We stayed here for 4 weeks and could not have been happier. Simone is an excellent host, even when sick with Covid replied to every question and gave us very memorable recommendations and friends to come by to check on things. The villa itself is at the end of a street and is quiet and private. The views are breathtaking. The yard is so amazing that we came back to the states seeing how to replicate some of it. Fruit and olive trees, it is really something. Somedays we would languish out back overlooking the canyon on chaise lounges reading books and drinking wine. It really was heaven. Equidistant to Florence and Sienna with countless towns that are a must see. Thank you Simone! We re glad you are feeling better!
Das Objekt ist sehr schรถn eingerichtet und man findet alles was man braucht. Alles ist gut eingezรคunt (wegen dem Hund) also wir haben den Urlaub genossen und bei einem kleinen Problem hatte der nette Vermieter auch sofort eine Lรถsung.
The house was comfortable and in driving distance to may places we wanted to visit. We enjoyed sitting on the patio overlooking the the surrounding hills.
Schรถne Lage am Rande des Ortes und eines Naturschutzgebietes.
Schรถner Toskana Urlaub wenngleich die Lage nicht inmitten der Hauptsehenswรผrdigkeiten der Toskana ist. Dies wird aber aufgewogen durch Kontakt zur sehr netten (italienischen) Nachbarschaft des Anwesens und der Mรถglichkeit seine Besorgungen direkt um die Ecke zu machen.
Wir haben den Urlaub in diesem wunderschรถnen Ferienhaus genossen. Es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Besonders die Lage am Ortsrandand von Castelfranco hat uns gefallen. Ein kleiner Supermarkt ist 2 Minuten und ein Bรคcker 5 Minuten vom Ferienhaus entfernt. Der Garten ist eine Oase der Ruhe und man kann vom Bahnhof in Figline Florenz in 30 Minuten mit dem Zug erreichen. Auch ein Ausflug in die Berge lohnt sich.
Wir wurden liebevoll vom Gastgeber empfangen und in Ruhe ins Haus eingewiesen. Bei Fragen oder wรผnschen war der Gastgeber sofort zur Stelle. Beide Zimmer sauber und zweckmรครig. In der Kรผche fehlte es an nichts! Bad sauber und groร. Waschmaschine vorhanden. Selbst der Gรคrtner wurde zwischendurch geschickt um gegen die bรถsen Mรผcken zu spritzen. Haus liegt am Ende einer Wohnstrasse mit netten Nachbarn die uns mit Kรถstlichkeiten aus deren Garten versorgten und zum Stadtfest einluden. Vielen Dank fรผr schรถne Tage in Castelfranco!
Read Jill Bโs review which I adopt as if same were set forth above verbatim. It is indeed well stocked and user friendly , extremely peaceful.
My wife and I spent a month here. Simone is a warm and fabulous host who will meet you upon check in (Recommended). However, the simplicity of this VRBO is one of the things that makes it so special.
It is an oasis. We were sad to leave.
All the necessities are within walking distance or a short drive- gelato, groceries, post office, atm, good restaurants(The Tower adjacent to the actual Castle Towerโฆask for Chiara who speaks good English, Andreaโs pizzarea is a short drive).
We used this as our base to visit the back roads and small towns of Tuscany. Perfect for that.
Simone is Jonny on the spot if you NEED him,
You will Love this VRBO, and will miss it when you leave. Jon P and Jeanne M
Das Ferienhaus in Castelfranco war hervorragend, auf der einen Seite lag es ruhig in einer Sackgasse, auf der anderen Seite war ein kleiner Supermarkt, eine Gelateria und zwei Lokale fuรlรคufig erreichbar. Simone war ein perfekter Gastgeber
Een heerlijk verblijf gehad !
Het huis, de tuin met fantastisch uitzicht, alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd door de zeer gastvrije eigenaar Simone. Heerlijk was ook de afgerasterde tuin waar onze hond heerlijk in kon verblijven. Een fantastische locatie als je van rust houdt, maar waar toch genoeg te doen is in de omgeving. We komen graag nog eens terug !
Accolti molto bene da Simone, alloggio teanquillo, comodo e super fornito!!
Completato da un giardino molto bello, curato e con una vista mozzafiato, dove si poteva godere di relax con cinguettio degli uccellini di sottofondo.
Posizione comoda per escursioni culturali e camminate.
Ringraziamo ancora Simone per l ospitalita'. Mirella e Beppe
Wir kรถnnen unseren Aufenthalt nur mit 5 Sternen bewerten. Diese Bewertung bezieht sich einerseits auf die Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber. Simone hat uns nicht nur herzlich empfangen, sondern stand uns wรคhrend der gesamten Dauer unseres Aufenthaltes mit tollen Empfehlungen und Tipps zur Seite. Andererseits ist das Haus modern, sauber und gut eingerichtet und verfรผgt รผber einen tollen Garten mit herrlicher Aussicht. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhรคltnis ist damit hervorragend. Castelfranco bietet Ruhe und hat zugleich alles was man braucht vor Ort: Niedliche Restaurants, Supermarkt, Schlachter, Bรคckerei, Bank uvm. Zudem stellt es eine tolle Ausgangsbasis fรผr Ausflรผge in die Toskana und ihre Stรคdte dar. Im Ort wurden wir mit groรer Herzlichkeit, auch durch die Nachbarn aufgenommen. Wir wรผrden jederzeit noch einmal unsere Ferien hier verbringen.
Abbiamo soggiornato qui una settimana, la casa รจ molto graziosa e dotata di ogni comoditร , il propietario รจ stato disponibile e molto cordiale. Ci siamo trovati molto bene.
Grazie Simone
Wir fanden ein schรถnes kleines Haus mit Garten vor. Die Einrichtung war schรถn und gemรผtlich, es fehlte an nichts. Einkausmรถglichkeiten und Gastronomie waren dank der Nรคhe zum Ortskern optimal [auch fuรlรคufig] zu erreichen. Simone war ein toller Gastgeber und hat das Haus sehr gut vorbereitet [inkl. Desinfektionsmittel], was in dieser Zeit sehr wichtig und beruhigend war. Wir wรผrden jeder Zeit wiederkommen.
