Bastava poco
Tutto perfetto, tranne l'accoglienza. Nonostante avessi comunicato il giorno prima e il giorno stesso l'orario del nostro check-in ci hanno fatto trovare i riscaldamenti spenti. La struttura ci ha messo un giorno intero per arrivare a temperature decenti. Peccato bastava un minimo di accortezza ed attenzione al cliente. La prima sera ci siamo gelati dal freddo.

Beautiful property and the view is amazing.
We had three couples and stayed in the main house. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. It was so historic and beautiful, we felt like we stepped back in time but still had the modern amenities. Franco was very responsive and hospitable. We can’t say enough about the views, absolutely stunning. The drive up the narrow, winding road was a littlest scary at first but we got used to it. We would definitely stay again.

Fabulous Tuscany Villa
This villa is situated on the beautiful mountains of Tuscany with gorgeous views. Our group of 6 arrived later then expected so we called our host and asked if he could have for us on arrival some wine,cheese, coldcuts and bread, to which he so greatful agreed too. The host was reachable at all time when we needed to ask questions or recommendations of where to go and what to see. Can not say more about the host, (Laura) could not have been more helpfull to us.

Come in un film romantico...
Abbiamo scelto questa villa per un week end tra amiche. Il borgo in cui si trova è spettacolare e gode di un meraviglioso panorama. Il proprietario ci ha accolto cordialmente, presente ma mai invadente, attento alle nostre esigenze. Pulizia impeccabile. La consiglio vivamente per trascorrere una vacanza tra amici o famiglia o vacanza romantica con il proprio partner. Ci tornerò sicuramente. Roberta

About the host

Hosted by Laura Protti

Host profile image
The Protti family acquired the property in 1996. At the time the hamlet was unrestored and the family started a renovation project that took several years to complete. Mrs Protti was originally from Cortona and, while she spent several decades in Milan for work reasons, she always desired to go back to her birth town upon retirement.

Why they chose this property

The hamlet sits on the panoramic hill of Polvano and enjoys a breathtaking view of the surrounding Valley. It is an idyllic location with a magic atmosphere.
