We had a large group of family and friends comfortably stay here. The host was very available and helpful, and personally showed us around the property upon our arrival. The property description is accurate.
We loved our stay, it was beautiful and relaxing beyond words! Francesca and her team were amazing, providing so many memorable experiences and great support! We will be back! What a wonderful time all around.
The property was lovely. Secure, private entrance with lovely backyard views overlooking Siena’s landscape. The sunrises and sunsets were spectacular. The perfect spot to enjoy dinner, drinks, or to simply relax with the book. Francesca was the perfect host, and help to make our stay carefree. From our pick up at the train station, trip to the grocery store, welcome dinner preparation with great conversation, trip planning, on-site rental cars and a private driver for our trip to and from Florence…we couldn’t have been more pleased. Francesca and her group made this one of our best stays.

Dear Trish, for me and the Best of mas team, has been a pleasure to take care of you and your vacation in Tuscany, you have been a wonderful guest and you are now more than a guest!
We look forward to having you back here!
We had the most amazing time at Francesca’s villa. The villa was beautiful and had the most amazing views. We felt like we’re in a movie. It was exactly what we were looking for in terms of experience in Tuscany. The villa had all the modern amenities but with a rustic Tuscan farmhouse vibe. The extra bonus was being able to work with Francesca and Ambra through their company The Best of Mas. They worked with us for over a year to help us plan a once in a life time trip, from logistics, to dinner reservations, wonderful day trips and tours in Tuscany, Sorrento and Capri. We will recommend The Best of Mas to any of our family and friends who are planning a trip to Italy. We can’t wait yo go back!

Dear Laure and John, it has really been a pleasure to host you in my villa and to help you in organizing your Italian trip: me, Ambra and all the Best of Mas staff. thank you for having been such a perfect guest and really look forward to meeting you again. Take care of you and please stay in touch!
A true Tuscany experience. Fantastic place to stay. Highly recommendable for family holiday. We all loved the welcome dinner which Francesca, our host, prepared for us. And her team, Best of Mas, was very helpful and responsive. It was a lovely stay!
We had a fantastic stay during our week in Tuscany. Francesca, the owner, was outstanding and timely in her response to questions throughout out stay. This VRBO rental is nothing short of a 5-star experience and we loved our stay.
We had a great stay in this home enjoying the views of the Tuscan country side. It is located close to Siena and is a perfect place to stay to make day trips to many towns and villages in Tuscany. Francesca was very attentive and helpful in explaining everything about the house and property. We would definitely stay again if ever in the area.

I wish you all the best

The house was perfect, maybe some equipment are a little bit outdated…

Thank you for your review, I have actually replaced the only “outdated” elements of the house: the toster and American cider machine. They were 3 years old… not so “dated”, but thank you for the review, they help me to get better and better!
Beautiful house with all the amenities. Easy to get to, peaceful neighborhood with stunning views of the vineyards. Francesca and all of the Best of Mas were wonderful. We will recommend this property to all our friends and hope to return soon.
We had a lovely weekend here! It was a restful, relaxing weekend during a long two week tour of Italy. They were so helpful in accommodating all of our requests. One night we had the best time - Amber came to cook us dinner - her cheery disposition equally as wonderful as her dinner she prepared. We loved every second and would love even more to be able to return!

Excellent!
I cannot say enough about Francesca, her home, her hospitality and the amazing tour and meal she provided us! I highly recommend anyone traveling to Siena to stay at this property and to arrange tours with her. From the warm greeting to the hugs goodbye, everything we encountered with her was exactly what we imagined Italy to be.

Oh my dear Charla
It was my pleasure to meet you and share with you my house and a part of my life, to tour with you and share my passion about food, wine, the magic of our territory... thank
You you to have been so open mind to share this with me! And your familly was magic! A big hug to all of you!
Absolutely Epic week in Tuscany – and all thanks to Francesca and Best of Mas! We spent a week in Siena at one of her villas. Unbelievable is the only word I can think of to describe it - from the villa itself, to the pool, the hot tub, the fireplace, the bedrooms, and the bathrooms…everything was top notch. Add in the fantastic authentic Italian dinner Francesca personally cooked for us at the villa, the tours of Montepulciano and Pienza with Pepino driving us in a Mercedes Benz, and an unforgettable wine tasking bike tour led by Enrico, and I can’t give Francesca and the Best of MAS team a high enough recommendation!
We had an amazing stay at this home in the Tuscan countryside. Everything you need is at your fingertips so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the scenery. Francesca is an amazing host and quickly responded to every request and couldn’t be more helpful. The only complaint we had was that we couldn’t stay longer!
We look forward to returning some day!
The property is an authentic Tuscan dream and the view is so stunning it is almost unreal. Francesca is an excellent host whose personal history with the house shines through in her attentiveness and care of her guests and their experience while visiting. 100% recommended.

Thank you Olivia, I take care of my guests, it is true, but this was absolutely easy with you! It has been a pleasure to have you in my house and I hope to have the same possibility in the future!! I wish you all the very best!!! Take care of you!
Four friends gathered at the perfect house to enjoy 10 days touring Tuscany, relaxing by the pool, wandering through the vineyard, cooking great meals, and making memories to last a lifetime.
Francesca is the perfect hostess, and her husband Francesco the perfect chef to teach us how to make wood-fired pizza and treat us to his secret recipe limoncello.
We can't wait to return!

Beautiful setting - great house
We stayed for one week at this beautiful property just outside of Siena. The house, the pool, the hot tub, the view - absolutely fabulous. You do need a car to get around (to grocery, old city Centro in Siena and surrounding hill towns). Francesca is very helpful - an especially gracious host. I would highly recommend this property for afamily or a group of friends.
We loved our stay! There were 5 adults and plenty of room for all of us. The house looks similar if not better than the photos. It’s very peaceful and relaxing. Francesca made everything very easy for us - including rides to and from the airport, and having a rental car ready to go for us at the house. The highlight for us was the cooking class that came to us. (Also arranged by Francesca) Delicious food and an amazing experience!
We spent a week at the house and had a wonderful time. Francesca was the most gracious host, helping us with rental car reservations and wine tours. Very responsive to all of our questions. Francesco was our driver and tour guide, helping us with exclusive access to wineries and more. The pasta cooking class was fabulous. Highly recommend.
Really loved the property and location...house was really well equiped.
BUT...a cleaning charge of €250 and paying for excess use if electricity? Come on...that was ridiculous.

Dear Jason,
You have been a kind and respectful guest of my house. As you can see, the house is more than 200 m2, it must be cleaned and disinfected to perfection at each departure to ensure perfect hygiene. In addition, there are 3 lodges, 1 swimming pool, 1 outdoor 6-seater hot tub, a wood-fired oven and a barbecue and the cleaning cost also includes the cleaning of these amenities in addition to the supply of linen and all the comforts that you found upon your arrival even if normally not all provided in a self-catering house, namely:
ESPRESSO COFFEE
SALT
SUGAR
OLIVE OIL
SPICES
DISH SOAP
GARBAGE BAGS
DISH WASHING SPONGE
DISH WASHING SOAP
All this is included in the cleaning costs and I assure you that it is not even a lot what I ask.
As for electricity costs, I am pleased that you have given me the opportunity to talk about it: I provide an amount of electricity equal to 100 kw per week which is almost double the use of an Italian family: swimming pool, hot tub and outdoor lights are included in the price and you pay extra, over and above the 100 kw per week, only the air conditioning and consumption inside the house.
There are guests who, unfortunately, do not make normal use of electricity: they leave the house in the morning and return only in the evening leaving all day the lights on and the air conditioning on with the windows open.
This creates a waste that I believe, as an owner and as a human being, is right to charge extra for.
However, I would like to point out that this year only 2 guests made extra use of electricity: with correct consumption of light and air conditioning, all the guests always left without consuming extra and no one ever complained about this.
I would also like to point out that the final cleaning costs and the extra electricity consumption charges are clearly indicated in the offer before the booking confirmation.
We loved our entire trip to Italy, but our time in Quercegrossa with Best of Mas was the highlight! Francesca has created a lovely country home to just relax and breathe in Tuscany! She helped to arrange a welcome dinner in the home our first night from busy Florence which was the one dinner we kept talking about! Absolutely beautiful home, spacious, and very comfortable! Francesca remained available throughout our stay and was a huge help! Thank you, thank you Francesca and Best of Mas, we look forward to staying with you again!
We had a wonderful stay at Capanna Al Lago The property has gorgeous, views of the picturesque Tuscan countryside. The property is peaceful and secluded, yet just minutes away from Sienna, making it the perfect getaway for relaxation. The spacious house is attractively decorated, blending traditional charm with modern comforts. Nicely accommodated bedrooms and bathrooms ensure a comfortable stay for all guests.
The views are are enhanced by a pool, adding to the ambiance and likely providing a refreshing retreat on warm days although the weather was not warm enough during our stay. The hot tub is well maintained, with powerful jets that make it a great spot for relaxing under the stars.
A nearby supermarket made it easy to prepare meals, which we enjoyed on the patio table in the beautiful surroundings. We found it a good location for exploring the Tuscan countryside, medieval towns, and other sights. Francesca is a wonderful host and the team at Best of Mas was a delight to work with. We will be going back again in the future. Highly recommended.
