Summary: We enjoyed a wonderful fortnight's stay at this beautiful home in the hills outside the village of Monterchi. The house sits on a ridge with far reaching views across the surrounding valleys, particularly stunning from the swimming pool. The owners were kind and thoughtful and there to offer assistance whenever needed. Their recommendations were spot on, especially the gelateria at the end of the Ponte Vecchio in Florence!!! There were so many beautiful places to visit within easy reach that the house was a perfect launch pad into Tuscany and Umbria. A lovely circular walk from the house towards an elegant castle, allows you to enjoy the setting of the house in this rural paradise. The pool, with its kitchen and shower set in gorgeous gardens, was the the star of the show, the only problem was dragging the kids away! We visited in late July/early August when a music fesitval was on and we enjoyed a wonderful evening of open air jazz in the square in Monterchi, filled with locals rather than tourists.

Summary: The property was comfortable and had everything that was needed for our stay. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed spending our evenings sitting out at the pool area across from the house. We made full use of the poolside kitchen and barbecue area. Danny and Jeanette were very welcoming hosts and were extremely helpful when our hire car broke down on the way to the property and helped to quickly resolve a leak. Their knowledge and expertise of the local area meant that we had enriching experiences of the local culture and sights. We would recommend visiting this area to anyone. It is beautiful, tranquil and unspoilt and the places we visited were magical! We hope to return in the future.

Summary: Our family had a wonderful time at this exceptional property located at the Tuscany/Umbria border. The house and accommodation are spacious and beautifully laid out. The views remarkable with multiple external spaces to sit all round the house in the beautiful garden, and wonderful fruit to pick (figs at the time we stayed). The pool area is absolutely amazing: wonderful 14 m pool with lovely setting and views, multiple seating areas and kitchen. I could say much more about the house. The setting is also wonderful with local villages, rich art and restaurants. The delightful owners Janette and Danny pointed us to what to do which included a wonderful outdoor music festival at Anghiari and a long walk of the local hills.

Summary: There were six of us in our group and we all thoroughly enjoyed and made the most out of the beautiful grounds and pool area. It’s a great space for socialising and eating meals together, and we took advantage of the BBQ a few times too. While the kitchen has most of what you need, it’s quite a small space and does get very hot, so cooking was a bit stressful. Some things could also use a bit of updating, such as fixing the fridge and washing machine doors. We definitely suggest drinking the fantastic wine they have there! Janette and Danny were super helpful with any requests we had, and went out of their way to help us book a taxi. Thank you for the great stay!

Summary: My wife and I stayed with friends for a week at Podere Borgacciano in early July. The property is traditional Tuscan, with air conditioning in the bedrooms which was very welcome. The location had spectacular vistas across open countryside to hill top villages. The gardens are beautiful and well attended. In particular the pool area had a tremendous variety of butterflies and nectar seeking insect life on the lavender plants which kept us amused for ages. The pool location, again with great views over the countryside had the added bonus of having an equipped kitchen, barbeque and pizza oven and under cover eating area where we had most of our meals. All in all a very restful week spent at Podere Borgacciano to recharge the batteries.

Summary: My husband and I had a wonderful 9 days staying in this beautiful villa. This is the 6th house we have rented in Tuscany and our favorite. There are so many beautiful places to enjoy on the property. Directly across the street is the pool which is huge, a large pool patio and an outdoor kitchen. It was like having our own private resort. The owners stay directly next door when they are in Italy which was something new for us as our other rentals were completely private. However, we really enjoyed having them close by for several reasons. First, they are a wonderful couple to talk to, so nice and very interesting. Second, any time I had a question about something or needed advice, I could walk next door and ask. Even though they were close by, they were not the least bit intrusive and we had plenty of privacy. The views surrounding the villa were breathtaking and the location was very convenient. There was a small grocery store 5 minutes away and a number of good restaurants nearby. We just loved this place! Thank you Danny and Janette

Summary: What a lovely place and what a beautiful setting! We had a fantastic week with our friends in and around the pool. The swimming pool is the most beautiful and largest pool we have ever had in a rented house. So wonderfully refreshing during the hot days. The view from the swimming pool and the house is breathtaking. And The many lavender in the garden smells fantastic. We have had many lazy days by the pool, but a visit to Arezzo is also recommended. Also nearby are plenty of nice picturesque villages to view. The owners Janet and Danny are super sweet and friendly people. They do everything to make your visit as pleasant as possible. They even welcomed us very kindly when we had a breakdown with our car. We will never forget this vacation! It was a very special one. Thank you again also on behalf of our friends. Erik, River & Fiona
