The villa is in a beautiful quiet location in the Tuscan hills, down a steep private road . Prior to and during our stay communication with Sofia was excellent. We were greeted by Paulo and Patricia who live on site and could not have been more welcoming or helpful during our stay . The property is extremely well equipped, with everything you need to prepare a meal . It was also super clean and the bed was very comfortable. It’s very spacious and we enjoyed sitting outside for morning coffee. We also made use of the Hot Tub and that was a great way to relax after a days exploring. This is a lovely property surrounded by olive trees and rosemary bushes and perfect for a couple . We would definitely stay there again.
The area is perfect for hiking/ cycling and exploring by car . There’s just so much to see and do. From the house it’s 5mins walk up the hill to Frescobaldi wine estate and they do tours and have a lovely restaurant we ate there . Also there are 2 villages within a 20 min walk. Vertine is Medieval walled village like a film set and has a lovely Bar for drinks and cold plates. The other direction is Gaiole and there is a coop and various restaurants and bars. We visited Seinna and San Gimignano both less than and hour by car. Great places to spend the day. So many lovely villages on the doorstep, we ate at Pizza Pie Radda First time I couldn’t finish a pizza ! Also visited Castillo di Brolio and Castillo Meleto and did 3 walks all starting within 10/15mins drive.
Thank you for your lovely review of Podere Sofia. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful setting in the Tuscan hills, found the villa exceptionally well equipped, and made use of the hot tub and beautiful garden terrace. Thank you for your kind recommendation, and we would be delighted to welcome you back to Tuscany again in the future.
