Idyllic stay
Federica and Giuseppe were wonderful hosts - great communication throughout the stay and always available. The house was immaculate and well presented. The pool and facilities (swing, table tennis, football pitch etc) were superb. Views were incredible and the area was so peaceful. Highly recommend this villa for a restful break!

Stunning villa and location!
The villa itself is beautiful! A converted barn style property with thick stone walls. That coupled with the mountain location, means it is naturally cool. The photos of the villa really don't do it justice, as it is much bigger than it appears (including the pool!), but it also doesn't show the incredible vista that you are able to enjoy from the outside dining area and pool. If you are looking to get away from it all, then I can't recommend this villa enough. It is in the middle of nowhere, yet the nearest supermarket only 15mins drive away. Federica is a wonderful host and really wants you to have the best time possible. She was very responsive on WhatsApp to any questions and queries we had. It is like you are being welcomed into her family home, rather than just a holiday let. There were eight of us staying there as two families of 4 with teenage children. There is ample space for everyone to have quit time and plenty to entertain the children too. I'd recommend the home cooked meal that they offer too which was delicious. Overall I'd be happy to recommend this villa to family and friends and would definitely consider returning myself.

The Perfect Choice
I couldn’t believe my eyes when we arrived! This property was exactly as the pictures portrayed. It was all we had hoped for and lacked nothing! Not only is it lovingly and meticulously maintained by Federica and Giuseppe, both inside and the stunning grounds, but the warmth of the welcome we received from them was above and beyond. We drove from the UK, so did not arrive until 1am. Federica and members of her family were not concerned at all by this, and were at the property to greet us with warm smiles, handshakes, and genuine pleasure. It was heartwarming, after such a long drive. On entering the property we found a delicious cake, made for us by Federica, along with wine, free range eggs from her friend’s farm and bread and milk. We couldn’t have asked for more, and felt instantly at home. Federica gave us a guided tour of the house, and pointed out all we would need to know for our stay, including where to find the gas shut off point and the electricity trip switch box. The electric fans in the cupboard were a Godsend! Throughout our two weeks, Federica and Giuseppe left us to enjoy our holiday, but discretely ensured that the amazing pool was maintained and that all the pots and plants were watered. We received a linen and towel change mid-stay. The love they have put into this property is palpable! Despite their discretion, we were reassured by the fact that if we had a question, or a problem, they were there ready to help us - instantly! We had problems with our car air conditioning (a vital resource, considering it was 38 degrees!) and within minutes, Federica had found us a garage and made us an appointment. We really were so grateful! The views from this magnificent property are beautiful! Watching the sunset over the golden field was one of my favourite evening activities, and swinging on the garden swing, in the gentle night time breeze, listening to the soothing rattle of the cicada beetles was the perfect relaxation and a moment each night that I have bottled. The fresh cherries and apricots on the trees in the garden provided the perfect accompaniment to every breakfast, and the sense of being truly immersed in Italian culture was instant. It was a privilege to enjoy this magnificent property and to be hosted by such warm and welcoming people. The whole experience has been one of life’s treasured moments. We will remember both our holiday and the wonderful couple who hosted us with great fondness.

We spend very nice time in this house. We stayed there with friends & children and it was very comfortable place for us. Everything was perfectly prepared and clean. Kitchen was fully equipped, and there was a lot of facilities like balls, football pitch, table tennis, table football and games. House is beautiful located with amazing view. There is nice ground where our children was playing all days. Finally what we appreciate a lot - Federica was very helpful and always on duty during our stay. We felt save and calm. The best place to spend holiday. Thank you Federica! We were amazed.

Escape the crowds in Tuscany in this delightful villa
A fantastic villa in the less well known eastern area of Tuscany. The villa has a great pool, large gardens with many flowers, fabulous views and is fully equipped for a very comfortable stay. A great place to get away from the crowds and relax. A car is essential for investigating this interesting area.

Amazing family holiday under the Tuscan sun.
I don't normally write reviews to anything but our holiday in Tuscany, with my family, was so amazing I felt like I have to say thank you to the owners of the Casale La Rosa dei Venti, Giussepe and Federica for the warm reception and the food they left for us (loaves of bread, fresh eggs and lovely cakes made by Valentina). The villa is beautiful with a lovely swimming pool, ping-pong, football/volleyball ground, BBQ area and the garden is amazing with fantastic views of Tuscan hills. We visited the nearby villages like Caprese Michaelangelo, Anghiari, a medieval town, Citta de Castelo, Sansepolcro, Chianti and my children visited Siena which is 2 hrs drive from the villa. We tasted the best pizza and pasta in Tuscany. If you want to getaway from the hassle and bustle of the city I would highly recommend Casale Le Rosa dei Venti, truly amazing.

Most beautiful spot in Italy!!!
I can’t even begin to describe our stay at Federica and Guiseppe’s wonderful house! It is even more beautiful than the pictures and wonderfully placed in the Tuscan hills. Everything was spotless clean and the garden so beautiful with flowers, fresh basil and plants. The pool was amazing and we spent full days here. Federica cooked us a homemade delicious Italian dinner that was to die for! She was so so kind and made our stay a memory we will always cherish. A huge thank you for having us.

Wunderbares Haus in absolut ruhiger Lage
Wir haben uns als Familie mit 2 Kindern in dem Haus sehr wohl gefühlt! Es ist auch für größere Gruppen geeignet und perfekt für einen Aufenthalt in Ruhe und mitten in der Natur. Die Poolanlage sowie der liebevoll angelegte Garten rund um das Haus sind fantastisch. Tischtennis, Tischkicker und Volleyballfeld lassen keine Langeweile aufkommen. Mehrere Sitzbereiche im Außenbereich laden zum Verweilen ein und bieten immer die Möglichkeit, Sonne oder Schatten zu genießen. Das Haus selbst ist perfekt eingerichtet. Alle notwendigen Kochutensilien sind vorhanden. Die Kommunikation mit Federica war sehr unkompliziert. Ihre Antworten kamen immer prompt, sie ist sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit! Wir möchten uns nochmal bedanken und hoffen, einmal wiederzukommen! Kai und Marie

Wunderschönes Haus in traumhafter Natur
Wir (4 Erwachsene, 4 Kinder (12-14)) verbrachten zehn tolle Tage in diesem wunderschönen Haus in traumhafter, ruhiger, abgelegener Lage. Man kann wunderbar entspannen, sich erholen und den wunderschönen Pool genießen. Um das Haus herum befindet sich ein großzügiger Garten mit Tischtennisplatte, Fußballplatz, Tischkicker. Vom Liegestuhl aus hat man einen umwerfenden Blick auf einen sensationelles Mohnfeld. Noch nie haben wir so viele Glühwürmchen gesehen. In der näheren Umgebung lohnen sich Ausflüge nach Arezzo, Perugia und weitere kleine, bezaubernde Städtchen-es gibt leckeres Essen in kleinen, regionalen Restaurants. Der Kontakt über unsere sehr nette Gastgeberin Federica war immer prompt und unkompliziert und Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

We enjoyed a wonderful week with two families - what a beautiful spot! The house is very well equipped including lots of games and sport activities for the kids on the premises (i.e. football court, table tennis, table football, very cool swing etc etc ) and of course a great pool. The view over the valley is magnificent. Contact with the owner Franseca was really good - so friendly! It is quite a drive to nearest shops but this did not bother us at all.

Ruhe und Entspannung in der Natur
Eigentlich sollte man ja für einen derartigen Geheimtip gar nicht so viel Werbung machen....aber auf Wunsch der sehr herzlichen Gastgeber wollen wir gerne unsere Erfahrungen teilen: Wir waren mit 3 Teenagern in einer der diesjährigen Hitzewochen in Caprese und haben eine wunderbare Zeit gehabt! Das Haus liegt komplett abseits, mit dem Auto sind aber hervorragende Restaurants (v.a. Il Cerro!) und auch Supermärkte problemlos in 10-15 min erreichbar. Die Ruhe am Morgen ist wie in den Bergen, herrlich! Der Pool muss selber immer wieder mal mit dem Netz gereinigt werden, blieb aber die ganze Woche trotz mehr als 35 Grad erfrischend! Wir haben ihn mitunter auch bis in die Nacht genutzt. Das Haus selber ist kein Luxusanwesen, sondern bodenständig (wie die ganze Region!). Wer also Chi-chi sucht, ist dort eher fehl am Platz. Alles ist bestens unterhalten, supersauber und praktisch. Tischtennis, Fussball usw., alles ist da, auch sehr gute Ventilatoren mit Nachtmodus (keine Klimaanlage, die wir aber auch nicht brauchten!). An verschiedensten schattigen Sitzplätzen kann gespielt oder gelesen werden. Jogging am Morgen war perfekt, da direkt die Wanderwege am Haus vorbeilaufen. Für kulturelle Unternehmungen eignen sich vor allem die Ortschaften in der Umgebung: Arezzo (super auch zum shoppen, was die Teenies freute!), Anghiari und Sansepolcro, alles innerhalb 20-50 min über etwas holprige Strassen teilweise durch Naturreservate erreichbar. Ehrlich gesagt blieben wir die meiste Zeit aber eher am Haus und lebten in den Tag....Für uns war es eine unvergessliche Woche! Auch dank Federica und Guiseppe, die für uns Restaurantbuchungen übernommen haben und uns bestens im Hintergrund per WhatsApp bei allen Fragen betreuten.

Toller Urlaub von Anfang bis Ende
Wir, 2 Erwachsene und 7 Kinder, waren 1 Woche Anfang Juni bei Federica und Giuseppe zu Gast in deren Ferienhaus. Die Lage war für uns perfekt - vollkommen abgelegen, total ruhig und mit tollem Blick auf die umliegenden Hügel und Wiesen. So konnten die Kinder herumtollen ohne jemandem zu stören. Das Haus selbst und das Gelände drum herum entsprach absolut der Beschreibung. Beides war sehr gepflegt und mit viel Liebe für unseren Aufenthalt vorbereitet. Empfangen wurden wir von Federica, Giuseppe und einem Teil der Familie persönlich und überaus herzlich. Zudem gab es zur Ankunft ein Willkommenspaket mit allerlei Leckereien. Das Haus + Anwesen ist sehr gut ausgestattet und bietet mit Tischtennisplatte, Tischkicker, Fußballplatz und tollem Pool viele Möglichkeiten sich zu beschäftigen. Ein rundum gelungener Urlaub, mit tollen Gastgebern und wunderschönem Ambiente. Grazie Federica und Giuseppe und hoffentlich bis bald mal wieder.

Ich und meine Familie verbrachten eine wunderbare Woche in dem Ferienhaus von Frederica, welche uns bereits bei der Ankunft sehr herzlich empfangen hat und uns mit einem kleinen Geschenkkorb willkommen hieß. Das Hause selbst, entspricht voll und ganz den Bildern und der Beschreibung des Inserats. Vor allen dingen die grandiose Aussicht und der tolle Pool, laden dazu ein, auch mal einen ganzen Tag einfach nur im und am Haus zu verbringen. Tagesausflüge mit dem Auto nach Arezzo, Perugia oder Siena, sind durch die Zentrale Lage, ebenfalls gut zu machen. Wir haben unsere Woche hier auf jeden Fall sehr genossen!

Fantastischer Urlaub
Wir (4 Erwachsene und 4 Kinder) haben uns aufgrund der Lage, der Ausstattung und der positiven Kommentare für das Haus entschieden. Unsere hohen Erwartungen wurden noch übertroffen. Federica und Giuseppe sind sehr tolle Gastgeber, egal welche Fragen oder Bitten (Restaurantreservierungen o.ä.) wir hatten, alles wurde von Federica umgehend geklärt. Das Haus ist perfekt ausgestattet, der Garten (Highlight ist die Schaukel 😎) sehr liebevoll gepflegt. Die räumliche Trennung von Pool und dem Rest des Gartens sorgt dafür, dass man sich auch mal zurückziehen kann. Wie bereits von anderen Gästen erwähnt sind noch die Kochkünste von Valentina zu erwähnen. Wir haben uns öfter davon überzeugen dürfen und können es nur weiterempfehlen. In Summe ein perfekter Urlaub. Vielen Dank an Federica und Giuseppe
