Best family gathering villa
We were 12 with 4 grandchildren ranging from 2 to 6 years old and this villa had something for everyone. Some air conditioned and fan bedrooms, lots of bathrooms, a large living room, great outdoor space and amazing views. There is a lovely terrace with lawn where children play while adults rest, a pool nestled on a lower level far enough from the house so no safety issues, a trampoline, a ping pong table and badminton court! Perfectly located to enjoy beautiful beaches, charter boats for island hoping and dine in Porto Ercole (If you can find a parking spot!!) Lourdes and Luigi care for the house and gardens and are the most pleasant and helpful people I have met in a rental. A lovely cook is available, speaks English and prepares delightful Italian dishes. All In all we had the best time under the Tuscan sun!

A truly special place
A very lovely house and grounds. It is a clearly loved family home, spacious and relaxed and yet incredibly well equipped especially the kitchen which was important for us with 2 chefs in our group. The whole atmosphere of Casa Moorhead is welcoming - lots of comfy chairs everywhere enabling everyone to either join together on the beautiful main terrace with stunning views of the bay, or to just mosey off and do their own thing, reading books from the very interesting library on the other terraces or wandering down to the very private, beautifully clean swimming pool. The directions were good, given that it is up a fairly narrow lane and it really is 5 minutes away from Porte Ercole with great cafes and restaurants and a lovely wide safe beautifully kept beach. We were a group of 11 friends and family ranging from 30 to 87 and we all found it a truly special place.

Wonder in the woods
The house was lovely with plenty of space for everyone to have privacy and also with good places to be together. The terrace overlooking the woods and sea was spectacular both during the day and in the evening. The kitchen was very well equipped and we enjoyed using it to cook although we also had Giovanna cook for us on a couple of nights and that was even more wonderful! She is a great cook and a lovely person. The pool lower down in the garden was also delightful and felt quite private away from the house. This property is very much a home and is full of books and has cosy sofas and chairs if the weather is not clement. We were travelling with friends and family and we all loved the house and gardens. we hope to return.

A spacious welcoming home, uniquely and conveniently located for a variety of holiday activities
If you are looking for a spacious house hidden away on a coastal Tuscan hillside, but with access to a variety of places in southern Tuscany, Casa Moorehead offers a wonderful location. The house is spacious, but it is more than a house, it is a home, and we immediately felt at home there. Indoors or outdoors, the house is well appointed for holiday living, and the charming terrace places you in amongst the trees, but with view of the surrounding hills and the sea. Sunrise was a particular delight. We discovered that the house had a unique literary association, which added a special curiosity and dimension to our stay. The location places you within easy car travel distance of waterfront cafes and restaurants at Porto Ercole and Porto Santo Stefano, swimming beaches, islands off the coast, inland hilltop Tuscan villages and historic and modern attractions. And there are nearby shopping facilities for all your needs. Be prepared for a narrow road and driveway up to the house, but it is easily carefully navigated. We were a group of family and friends and thoroughly enjoyed what was an all too short 11 day stay. It was October, so pleasantly warm, not hot. John R

Wonderful family holiday
The property is rustic and has a great history. The highlights would be - spacious living area/views/pool/badminton court/table tennis/kitchen/terrace/outdoor dining area/cooks. In the heat of August it is a bit of a struggle to stay cool (no AC) but we coped nonetheless. Staff and owners are brilliantly responsive. Thanks to all!

Wunderbar geräumiges Anwesen
Wir (7 - 8 befreundete Erwachsene) hatten eine gute Zeit. Das Haus ist liebevoll und praktisch eingerichtet. Entspannung im Garten. Fein gegessen um den Runden Tisch im Freien. Schöne Ausflüge. Lourdes und Luigi haben einen guten Job gemacht. (Bei der Buchung war uns gar nicht bewusst, dass dieser Service dabei ist). Für 2 kleine Reparaturen haben sie sofort telefoniert und innert Kürze war die Sache erledigt. Den Abzug-Stern gibt es einzig, weil einer der Freunde auf den Rollstuhl angewiesen ist. Dabei ist der Eingang schwierig und der Weg zum Pool unmöglich. Der Vermieter hat uns nach dieser Rückmeldung mit einem grosszügigen Erstattungsangebot überrascht. Und dafür gibt es Zusatzsterne! Wir empfehlen die Villa Moorehead sehr gerne weiter.

Family vacation in beautiful Italian villa
Thank you very much for a very pleasant stay in your beautiful house, John, which met all our expectations. Very beautiful place with great views, short distance to lovely beach and charming marina in Porto Ercole. We enjoyed the very beautiful terrace and garden including swimming pool. We could easily stay 13 persons in this very spacious and well-equipped house with 5 bathrooms. Thank you, John, for your quick answers on every question we had, planning the vacation, and all your help and guidance. And thank you to the housekeeper and gardener for keeping the house, garden and pool in perfect shape during our stay.

Tolles Haus mit Charakter und Aussicht
Wunderbar gelegen, kurze Wege nach Porto Ercole und zu verschiedenen schönen Stränden. Grandiose Aussicht. Das Haus bietet viel Platz, könnte hier und da etwas renoviert werden, jedoch macht gerade dies den Charme aus.

Sommerzeit am Mittelmeer
Wir (14 Personen, 7 Erwachsene, 5 Kinder und 2 Babys) haben in der Villa zwei wunderbare mediterrane Wochen verbracht. Das Anwesen ist idyllisch gelegen, inmitten von Olivenhainen und Schatten spendenden Pinien. Da die Parzelle sehr gross ist, hat man auch keine direkten Nachbarn. Man hört einzig die Zikaden. Das Haus und der Garten zeugen von gutem Geschmack. Sie sind liebevoll aber zweckmässig gestaltet und eingerichtet. Die Terrasse ums Haus misst schätzungsweise 300 Quadratmeter und mehr. Zu jeder Zeit findet man sowohl genügend Schatten als auch Sonne. Die Küche ist schlicht grossartig. Es hat einen riesigen Herd, einen grossen Geschirrspüler und 2 grosse Kühlschränke. Der Küchentisch bietet genügend Platz für 10 Personen. Geschirr hat es im Überfluss. Herzlichen Dank für alles! Nik & Freunde

If there is only one review you read, and you don't speak German, get this one translated and read it because it tells you about the house like no other.

hyggelig og veludstyret feriebolig. Omsorgsfuld vært. Stort moskito problem
Vores familie på 15, tre generationer, har i dag forladt Casa Moorehead efter en uges ophold. Huset er dejligt og veludstyret med mange værelser og vi nød utallige timer på den overdækkede loggia og i husets svømmebassin. Poolmand og stuepiger tog sig af alt forefaldende og ejeren var i forbindelse med nogle forespørgsler meget hjælpsom. Selve huset ligger på en høj bakkeskrænt helt omgivet af vegetation. Dette skabte en veritabel myggeplage. Størst var problemet om natten, da huset generelt ikke er forsynet med myggenet, hvorfor det var nødvendigt at sove med lukkede vinduer.

In reply to Mr S's review, I would like to emphasize that in general it was highly complimentary, remarking on the pleasure he and his party had experienced around the pool and on the terrace, as well as commenting on the number of rooms and the efficiency of the staff. The problem was the lack of mosquito nets in the bedrooms. We have always found that the gadgets plugged into an electric socket (and supplied in all the bedrooms) were a very effective method of dealing with the mosquitos. However it obviously does not work for everyone, and so, in response to Mr S's review, we will investigate the idea of putting mosquito nets in the bedrooms. If we decide this is a good idea, they should be in place by next year.
