lovely villa

Fabrizio's place is just gorgeous. When we arrived, he gave us a detailed tour of the gardens and house, both of which are beautiful and have all conveniences. We enjoyed walking to the small and lovely town of Farnatella, and driving a few minutes to the gorgeous Lucignano. While he and his wife do live in the downstairs of the house, they have a separate entrance and were respectful of our privacy while we were there. I hope to return for a longer stay!

Amazing Villa in the Heart of Tuscany

The host was very welcoming upon arrival and gave us a great tour of the property along with some area history. Such a peaceful setting. Really enjoyed the patio upstairs off the bedroom. Great views of the terrain by day and fantastic views of the stars at night. Very close to the enchanting villages on hilltops nearby (Rigamagno and Scrofiano).

Perfect Villa in Tuscany!

We absolutely loved our time in Fabrizio’s Tuscan villa. It was beautifully situated among an olive grove and we loved sitting out in the outdoor area enjoying a glass of wine. The local restaurant had incredible pizza and homemade pasta. Fabrizio was a gracious host who made himself available when we needed and was very accommodating. We will definitely be coming g back!

Perfect spot close to so many towns (Pienza, Montepulciano, Siena)

We absolutely loved our stay! Fabrizio was a wonderful host, he met us outside and showed us where to park. Gave us a brief history of the house and quick tour. He recommended an amazing local restaurant and quaint little town to visit, Lucignano, that you can see up on the hill from the house. Hardest part about the stay is deciding which towns to visit!

Lovely setting and home; Great host.

We would recommend this VRBO to anyone seeking relaxation and a great location from which to explore Tuscany. The apartment itself is carefully decorated with top-line fittings throughout and appears exactly as pictured. The wine for purchase on site is a nice touch. Fabrizio was delightful and welcoming. The grounds are beautiful and fun to explore.

The perfect getaway

We had a lovely stay in this home. Fabrizio is incredibly welcoming and kind. The views were amazing, and there were multiple outdoor seating areas to enjoy the scenery. If you're looking for a more remote stay, this is for you. A 20-40 minute drive will get you to nearby towns, sights, and restaurants, so having a method of transportation allows you to fully enjoy the area.

Fantastic home in Tuscany

Fabrizio was a great host, house exceeded our expectations. Secluded, quiet BUT Sinalunga was close by for supplies. Siena was 30 minutes away. In the close by village of Rigomagno was a restaurant called Scroccazuche (suggested by our host)...it was some of the finest food we have EVER eaten

Nice stay

We Had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful property. It was a breath of fresh air. I can’t think of any complaints, except just watch out for the cats they stole our daughters spaghetti when we were eating it outside and hissed at us the remainder of the time. Besides that that was perfect for our time in Tuscany.

Idyllic Villa tucked away in a Peaceful setting surrounded by Olive trees

We had 2 wonderful nights in this quaint villa, Fabrizio has lovingly restored and furnished the villa. We cooked up delicious meals and lit the outdoor fire and enjoyed the views from the upstairs terrace. Also central for a day trip to Roma and Florence. We will travel from Australia again to stay in this beautiful haven. X

The current pictures do not do the property justice! We were greeted by Fabrizio and made to feel at home. Kitchen was well equipped (just need your own spices). Close to all the towns and villages we wanted to see. This property is beautifully decorated and the grounds are just as pretty. Would recommend this property!!!

Very relaxing

Beautiful hillside location and welcoming, friendly host. The property was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean and comfortable. The gardens were gorgeous with always a place to relax in sun or shade. Loved the roof- top terrace with the view. Fabrizio, the host, was most helpful and has a good stock of wine and other essentials if needed. Highly recommended.

Idyllic stay in Tuscany

Wonderful hosts, cottage, and location in a peaceful olive grove setting. We confused our check-our day, and the hosts were very gracious with us despite our error and late check-out. The house is fully stocked with wine and refreshments for purchase. It’s a charming location centrally located to the best of what Tuscany has to offer. Highly recommend! ❤️

Serene stay in Tuscany

Beautiful old house with modern touches, in the middle of countryside Tuscany. Owner very courteous and accommodating. The house is a little hard to find at first, a few more details would be helpful but this is our only complaint. We really enjoyed our time there and are greatful for the experience. Grazie Fabrizio!!!
