There is a small terrace in the back to catch the early morning sun. The large (Giant) terraces in the front catch the sun from 10 am to sunset. For people like me who love to read in the shade : plenty of shade available under the surrounding trees. The olive groves around the houses are actually grassy meadows, ideal for children's play. In the woods on top of the hill behind the house lie the remains of a 13 th century castle. You have to drive up a drivable access road from the valley floor to reach this house. The next and only other house is 100 m down. The road continues up the hill for another 1.6 km, winding through beautiful olive groves and forests, offering breathtaking views.

Why choose us. This is what our guests think about us: Ms Devine from New Haven (USA) the owner and his family were incredibly warm, accommodating and helpful. The property was gorgeous and they took us on tour of his vineyard and spent two hours talking with us about the wine and food of Tuscany. It was a fantastic experience. Perfect Vacation Spot!" Mr Macdonald from London (UK) "The owners were very accommodating and made sure we were always comfortable and had everything we wanted. Our Italian is pretty much non-existent but that wasn't an issue as their English is fluent. The apartment was beautifully appointed and had everything that we needed. Wine is produced on the farm and is good value and very tasty. Very relaxing and highly recommended. Beautiful apartment in lovely surroundings!!!" Mrs Harris from Waldorf (USA) "The entire family was very friendly and extremely helpful from beginning to end. Since we did not rent a car, they met us at the train station in Arezzo and made us feel welcome from the start, giving valuable advice on such topics as shopping locations, nearby restaurants, bus stops we should be aware of and so forth. The owner made sure we felt welcome, answered all our concerns and did much more than what was expected. At the end, we felt more like family/friends rather than guests. I look forward to spending time again at their estate."
