Le Castagne

Fantastic panoramic view. Good service and daily maintenance of the outdoor area. Fantastic caretaker. Very difficult and challenging access, which should have been better communicated to the customers. Lack of internal cleaning over the 14-day period.

The first thing to note is that the approach to the cottage is steep and winding, which is not necessarily trailer friendly. As for the holiday home itself, this is getting old and you can tell by the furniture. Unfortunately, during the whole stay there was a very unpleasant smell of drains from every bathroom in the room itself, we were not allowed to heat with oil and were plagued by an annoying plague of insects. Our caretaker was super nice and very helpful. Big compliments to him!

A beautiful holiday home with a great view over the Tuscan valley. A steep road leads you to a beautiful place in Tuscany.

We were in August. Top location, it's very slightly windy, so you never sweat at the pool even at 38 degrees. The wasps only want to drink water, so always spray water out, then no problems. Caretaker speaks great German and waters every day and also brings bread rolls, so you don't have to come down from the mountain every day. Internet wasn't as good this year as it has been in recent years. But for private purposes it is easily enough. We had 3 problems, but each time the caretaker was there immediately.

Accommodation is the real highlight of the trip. Secluded, in the middle of the mountain, view as far as the eye can see. The caretaker comes daily to see if everything is in order, he speaks good German. Clean pool. Large, well-functioning kitchen. Spacious rooms and beds upstairs, more modest downstairs. Crazy sunsets. Only negative point is the owner herself. She did the handover at the end of the trip and tried to cheat with the deposit. You have to take a deep breath, signal stop and leave.... But the house is worth it and we will definitely have it again!

Very nice quiet location with a wonderful view. Ideal for a family holiday with a large family from small children to grandparents. Nice pool which was cleaned daily by the caretaker. Caretaker lives 3-4 km away, but can always be reached by phone and speaks German quite well. Everyone was enthusiastic about the house and the surrounding area. On request, bread service by the caretaker every morning during our stay.
