“Lovely large house with a nice garden , nice living room , kitchen , great air conditioning and a pool and friendly responsive hosts – recommended as a base for visiting Tuscany ! Many thanks to Emma Julie and Barrie for their warm welcome and all their help and recommendations”

“Hi Julie and Barrie,
I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay in your lovely house. It’s a very special place and we’re bringing some lovely memories home with us. Thanks for all the advice and recommendations and for being so responsive to any queries. Thanks to Emma too who gave us such a warm welcome 😊. Hope to revisit again one day but in the meantime will be trying to find a wine to match that lovely rose you sourced for us! All the best and hope you enjoy the rest of the summer “

“We had a great week in your beautiful villa. We loved the property, the setting and the surrounding area. I know Julie was messaging Jon at the beginning with some suggestions which we didn’t have the opportunity to follow up on this occasion as we were meeting up with family located in different parts of the region. Anyway, another time we would love to take advantage of your knowledge of the area. Thank you also for purchasing the wine, it was all amazing.
Have a great summer, and thanks again for letting us stay”

We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful home. I know you put a lot of effort into sharing nuggets with your guests that will help them have the most authentic experience - I can't tell you how much we appreciate that! Your thoughtfulness and help were unlike anything we've seen in renting (the wine, the day trip suggestions, the restaurant arrangements, the bocce balls, and on and on…). We had wonderful day trips to Orvieto, Sienna, Florence, biking in Chianti, etc., We visited Casale di Bibbiano on our last day, but only wish we had done that earlier in the week so that we could have taken a cooking class there!

As soon as we walked into the home were were very impressed with the spacious living area which opens into the garden and the charming typical Tuscan furnishings and furnishings. The home is located in an idyllic situation for people looking to relax in complete peace surrounded by beautiful trees. Yet in just few minutes driving we could easily reach the pretty village of Buonconvento which has an excellent selection of restaurant and wine bars with little shops, market etc like a village that time had forget but was all the better for it. A special thanks to Julie and Barrie.

We spent a wonderful family holiday in a charming villa Cortile del Pozzo surrounded by beautiful Tuscany. The attentiveness and helpfulness of our host couple Barrie and Julie even before our arrival, and the care of our hostess Emma on the spot, warmed our minds and completed the success of our holiday perfectly! I can happily recommend this to anyone who needs a quiet and comfortable place to spend their holiday :-)

The most wonderful place
Absolutely stunning place. THe home is located in a tranquil, unspools location without lots of tourists Village close by with all amenities including a great wine bar. Spa close at bagno vignoni for a dip Val D’Orcia picturesque scenery on your door step Montalcino wineries close by Pienza with its pecorino cheese close Siena just 30 minutes away. We had such a good stay and we went during the corona virus out break and all ran as normal with nowhere closed or stopping service as usual. Can't wait to go again some day!!
