My husband and I stayed in the Le Rondini unit for a week on our honeymoon last month. The property was absolutely lovely - there is a nice porch area with a table and chairs and chairs out on the lawn as well, all overlooking a beautiful view of the countryside and the towers of San Gimignano. The kitchen/bedroom portion of the unit was well equipped and had charming windows and high vaulted beam ceilings. The living room portion was nice too - it had a couch/tv and a wood-burning stove which was quite nice. The owner Marco was very friendly and happy to help with whatever we needed. It was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend this villa to anyone traveling to this area.

Just wanted to tell you and your staff what a marvelous time we had at your castle. The castle was a real jewel. We stayed in Montegufoni 9 and everything was wonderful. We loved Guisseppe, even though English was tough for him. Loved all your staff, the cook, receptionist etc.

We had a lovely stay at the villa in Portole. It was just a short drive up the mountain from Cortona. The view was beautiful. The home was very comfortable and the owner was super nice and accomodating. She greeted us with cookies and a bottle of her own wine. We managed to communicate despite the language barrier. I would definitely recommend staying here.

We (husband, wife and 15 year old son) had a great time at Il Pigionale. It is the quintessential Tuscan villa. Located in a small village on a hilltip. The village has an excellant restaraunt, butcher, fruit shop and small supermarket. Under the house was a fully equipped laundry, that came in handy. The owners of the villa were fantastic. Waiting for us was one bottle of white wine and one bottle of red. We also took up the option of a free cooking lesson with Marina in their home (about 20 kms away). It was a highlight of our trip. We make pasta, meat dish plus a pie for desert, all from first principles. Then we ate the diner together with their family. Sensational. They are perfect hosts. The villa is centally located to all points in Tuscany, although a car is essential. The villa is beatifully finished. I am sure you would not be disappointed. Highly recommended.

We had such an amazing time! The castle was so wonderful and the staff
that we did come in contact with were all so great! We spent one
morning just walking the castle grounds; exploring and admiring the
beauty! Our room was wonderful! We only had to pay for heat the first
night, as there was no one to turn ours off when we arrived at 9:30pm.
The temperture in the room without the heat was perfect! We like the
colder weather.

We will definitely be returning to Italy. We would like to return to
Montegufoni. The surrounding areas were great! Everyone we ran into in
the cafes and coop's were so nice and welcoming.

We recently stayed at the Castello di Montegufoni, and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. LeTizia and Giuseppe were wonderful at accomodating their guests. The property was clean and beautiful. The views were spectacular. Our apartment was everything we expected. We had more than enough space, and slept well in the quiet of the castle. The castle was an easy drive to Florence, Lucca, Siena, Pisa, San Gimagnano, the Chianti area, the coast, and other attractions. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone considering a vacation in the Tuscany region. Thank you for making our vacation a truly memorable Tuscan experience.

I can not think of a more perfect setting to relax and unwind. The view was amazing. Marco could not have been more hospitable and he makes an amazing pesto!!! We will definitely be back!

The location was fantastic and property was beautiful. Barbara was wonderful. We could not have asked for anything more. Previous visitors left ideas about places to shop and go. Was the best part of our European vacation!

The chalet Pierval is centrally located and well furnished. We would highly recommend it. If you wanna ski halfday, be there before 1 o'clock or you'll find the agency for the keys closed until 4!
