Family with older children
Stay: July 2016
Na de stijlvolle oprit met cypressen een fantastisch huis met beeldschoon uitzicht. Zeer smaakvol ingericht en heel erg ruim. Wij waren met ouder stel met kinderen en kleinkinderen (11 totaal), en er is zeker plaats voor meer mensen zonder elkaar in de weg te lopen.
Prettige slaapkamers en veel badkamers. Heerlijk zwembad met duikplank en verlichting!
Altijd buiten kunnen eten, dus feitelijk waren de zithoeken overbodig. Grote goed geoutilleerde keuken.
Jammer dat de week voorbij was.
Fabrizio de beheerder is vriendelijk en bereikbaar, omdat hij op het terrein woont. Hij kookt met een bekende op verzoek een heerlijke maaltijd (4 gangen). Hij was overdag bezig met de wijnbouw.

Gaiole is een leuk nog niet echt toeristisch dorpje met meerdere prettige restaurants., koffiegelegenheden en een goed voorziene winkel. Verder nog een alimentari/bakker en slager. Radda, Siena in de buurt en natuurlijk ook Florence en andere bezienswaardige steden, maar het verblijf zelf is zo prettig dat er weinig behoefte was de hele dag op stap te gaan.

The views are obviously stunning but to swim in the pool and be surrounded with vineyards was simply spectacular.
The villa is huge and very well maintained - the onsite maintenance man is incredibly helpful (uses translation software on his phone as only speaks Italian!!).
Sitting outside as a family group around the lovely stone table with green canopy above was a really super experience.
It was nicely remote while enabling us to get to Siena and Florence very easily.

Radda had a very lovely underground restaurant and is worth a visit - we were slightly less taken with Gaiole but did eat at a pizza place there that was pleasant enough.
The supermarket in Gaiole had pretty much all we needed although we did a massive shop at the Pam in Siena (25 minutes drive away) for a better selection of wine and beer.

Family with young children
Stay: August 2015
We were a group of 3 families with children ranging from 18months to 14 years old so we wanted a large villa with a big pool. The villa met and exceeded all our expectations. The bedroom areas were spread out well and allowed the 3 families a degree of privacy. Downstairs there were several lounge areas, including a great are with a DVD player which was great for the children in the evenings. There was a huge dining table both inside and out so all 14 of us could sit down and eat together. The location was fantastic with beautiful views from the garden and pool are and also the windows of the villa. The villa was very well equipped and nicely furnished. Fabrizio the caretaker was very helpful. The pool was brilliant and had a diving board which the children loved.
We visited the local vineyard Castello di Meleto where we had a tour of the castle and then tasted some very nice wines.
The local town Gaiole had some nice restaurants and shops particularly the wine merchants.
We also visited Siena, San Gimignano, Florence and Volterra all definitely worth a visit.
