Summary: We loved our stay with Tina and Franco at Farmhouse La Tinaia. The views were gorgeous and the apartment was spacious and perfect for our group. We enjoyed the pool, and the wine and olive oil produced on site were delicious.

Summary: The property was set in an idyllic location in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. As a bonus it was only 30 minutes to Florence. Luckily Tina could speak good English and gave us several good recommendations. We had fun trying to communicate with Franco with our pidgin Italian. They were excellent hosts and the accommodation met with our expectations. We would love to come back and plan to do so in the future.

Summary: We (my wife, girls (6 & 9) and I) spent a week with Tina and Franco in their beautiful house before heading up to Venice for the second week. I could quite happily have stayed here for another week instead of Venice. The location is so peaceful with great views out to the hills of Tuscany and it’s only a short trip (10-15 mins) to get into Florence. Although Florence is very pretty it was nice to be able to come back and relax away from the hustle and bustle with a glass of Chianti which is produced on site. It’s very good too. The kids loved the pool and we were often the only ones there. The apartment was very clean, the beds were comfortable and the rooms were nice an airy complemented by the aircon when required. The kitchen was also well equipped. A car is kind of essential if you wish to explore the area and if going to Florence it’s advisable to drive to the tram and bus station in Scandicci where you can park for free and take the tram into the centre of Florence. We drove south to San Gimignano which is absolutely stunning. A bit further on is Siena. If you are traveling with similar aged or slightly older kids and rent a car, Cavelino Matto theme park is worth a visit. Just over an hours drive away, it’s no Disneyland but it’s cheaper and there are no queues at all! Better bang for buck than parks where you have to queue all the time. If we come back to Tuscany in the next few years I’d definitely go back to La Tinaia. Highly recommended and thanks again to Tina for being a great host!

Summary: This was everything one could expect for a wonderful stay in the hills outside of Florence. Tina and her husband are warm and genuine hosts that provided excellent accommodations and accurate and helpful driving advice and suggestions like tips on how to get the most of the usual Tuscan sites and towns near. We drove to the large supermarket (with a large and well lighted parking lot) in Scandicci nearby (10 min) and caught the new Florence tram into town. As a result, no parking issues in downtown Florence. Tina and her husband hosted a dinner outside under the arbor by the pool that was fantastic. The view from the pool overlooking Florence and Arno River valley were beautiful. I would highly recommend this property. Harry Holmes

Summary: We stayed at LaTinaia for 3 nights and our only regret is that we did not book for a longer time. We hated to leave the peaceful beauty and wonderful accommodations. My husband, daughter and her husband stayed in the Il Bosco apartment and it was a perfect size for the four of us. The apartment and grounds are immaculate. Tina and Franco take such pride in their property and it shows in how well maintained the grounds and building are kept. We took the tram into Florence but needed a car to get into Scandicci. The countryside in the area is gorgeous! We were invited to have dinner prepared by Franco - don't miss the opportunity if it is offered! It was fun to dine with the other guests from around the world and the food was delicious! They also serve their wonderful wine from their own vineyards. I highly recommend this property! It is a gem!

Summary: We stayed here for 4 nights near the end of our 18 day trip through Italy. We arrived from Milan to finish with 4 more days in Rome. It was absolutely perfect. We traveled with another couple and shared one of the larger apartments. It was easy to get to Florence (need to drive to the tram) and perfect to visit the surrounding hill towns. Franco and Tina are the best hosts. We had a group dinner with them along with others that were staying there. Highly recommend this in that Franco is a great cook. The property is stunning, the rooms are well kept and clean. We walked to the restaurant up the road. The wine made on premise is very good. We brought home a case. I would go back again as couples or family. Thank you Franco and Tina for an awesome stay.

Summary: We spent 3 days in Florence, and Franco & Tina (very nice people and discrete) was very happy to welcome us. The view of the countryside is amazing, and the apartment was very cute... Our stay was unforgettable. Noiseless, romantic, relaxing... What you would like more? Many thanks to Franco and Tina, hopefully to see you next year

Summary: We spent 12 days at La Tinaia, as a family of four with two girls (age 9 and 13) and rented one of the up stairs two bedroom units. And we would highly recommend it. The property is nicely landscaped with a great pool, and large enough for kids to have fun. The location is up on a hill with a terrific view of the countryside. Tina and Franco are terrific hosts, always approachable and available when you need them, but giving you the feel that this is your place to enjoy as a family. They welcomed having kids. Although there are several apartments in the large Villa, we found that the property was very quite and relaxing, with people taking day trips and leaving the place empty if you wanted to have a day at the pool. The evenings were also quite with dinners out, so we rarely found that we were sharing the outdoor eating patio with anyone else, or perhaps one other couple or family. The units have the necessary items, including Air Conditioning during hot times (for an additional / nominal fee). We found the location idea for getting into Florence while still having a rural place to stay in, with a 15 min drive to Scandicci to get the tram and a comfortable 20 minute ride to downtown Florence. The tram arrived every 3-5 minutes at the station. A car rental is a must for this location in our minds if you are planning to see places, and we found that AVIS allows you to book a year in advance without any deposit, and had very competitive rates. The near by restaurant, 5 min walking distance up the hill, is great with a great outdoor courtyard to eat in. If you are planning to do a lot of your own cooking then a drive into Scandicci or Ginestra is required to get food. Our daughter's grandmother came for a week and rented a one bedroom upstairs beside our unit. She did find the 37 stairs a bit taxing for her, so if people have issues with climbing up 37 stairs a few times a day, then make sure you request one of the main floor units at ground level (they'll be likely a bit cooler also). The common kitchen on the ground level is great for preparing your dinners and eating in the garden area. The kitchen is well provisioned. We would go back. Thank you Tina and Franco for your hospitality
