Docciole is a beautiful family villa, full of charm and character, which we adored. It has a quirky, homely feel with Anna Maria and her family being fabulous hosts; friendly, welcoming and very helpful. The villa’s highlights are the outdoor eating space, pool and kitchen, all perfect for a multi-generational holiday. The beds are comfy with soft cotton sheets and the home is well stocked with everything needed, including a traditional cured meat slicer, a novelty which proved very useful given the selection from the deli!
The relaxed town offers a small, but good selection of shops, cafes and bars, along with a municipal tennis court which we used a few times. The walk into town is along a road with no footpath on sections which, coupled with the speed of some drivers, needs careful attention especially if walking with children. There are a number of marked hiking routes from the town, which are well signposted.
We had an amazing holiday and loved the villa and its family and history…..fascinating and beautiful.
Invitation to Tuscany provided a gold star service, and helped me choose Docciole after listening to my specific requests and then arranged for a private wine tour of the area & groceries to be delivered on our arrival day. We have recommended you to our friends, and if we return to Tuscany, will be in touch.
