The house is great and spacious and especially the outside area is very nice and well looked after. Pool a bit cold beginning of july. The wifi was not working during the evenings most of the time. Also the kitchen was lacking dishwasher and microwave. The kitchen could have been better stocked with knives, utensils etc. Pots and pans very old and overall not a fun kitchen to cook in. The two bedrooms on the top level got very warm and no mosquito net so could not open the windows. Many wasps around the pool, we had one child and one adult that got stung during our week. Area is lovely, especially Stia. Very quiet and amazing views from the house.

Das Ferienhaus ist genauso wie beschrieben. Vermieter sehr nett. Pool wird Tip Top gereinigt und ist auch angenehm Kühl mit 26°C. Bis Florenz, Siena oder Arezzo(sehr empfehlenswert) braucht man ne gute Autostunde. Am Haus und Drumherum bekommt man auch seine Ruhe wenn man das möchte...Zusammenfassend sehr empfehlenswertes Ferienhaus.

The villa was big and cosy. Pratovecchio is small village with one bigger supermarket. It is fine when you want to stay in and enjoy house with pool. But if you want to travel to Firence, Siena and other turistic places it is a bit problem because there are lots of curves on the road. It is worth to see Poppi - beautiful village nearby. Kitchen was big and quite good equipped but there were missing microwave and dishwasher. We had to wait very long time till warm water began to flow. We used only two bedrooms, beds were not very comfortable. We had privacy even though there was living owner´s friend on the ground floor (he had his own entrance and we met only once).Villa was quite clean. The wifi did not work all the time. Pool area was nice and clean, unfortunately first days of our stay the pool was very cold but later it was great. The owner cleaned the pool every morning.Bathroom Quality Everything worked well, just the equipment needs update.The owner was very helpful, we met her every day in a morning. If we needed something she always helped.

Spectacular location for an off the beaten track break in the heart of Tuscany. The villa looks impressive from the outside, with very well kept gardens and a good size salt water pool and several loungers. A large court yard for private parking and a large outdoor BBQ. Onto the first floor of the property, very large and well maintained, with typical Tuscan decor in the lounge and the kitchen. The kitchen has all the required amenities for a self catering break, leading into a terrace with great views of the countryside. 2 Large bedrooms which were clean and a good size. Second floor again has 2 large bedrooms and a shared bathrooms, with one of the bedrooms having a very small balcony. The top floor bedrooms did seem to be an after thought when coming to cleaning with a few bugs and cobwebs on the floor and around the lighting. The only downfall to the break was the villa WiFi did not work throughout the whole holiday, with very little phone signal in that area can be a problem at times. Overall a brilliant holiday and a great villa and would definitely visit again.

Mooie villa en een vriendelijk ontvangst van de eigenaren. Het plaatsje ligt erg afgelegen en er is in de omgeving niets te doen. Geen restaurants of winkels. We hadden geen mooi weer en de villa kon niet warmer gestookt worden dan 19 graden, het was koud. S;nachts was het nog veel kouder en de dekbedden / dekens waren oud en veel te dun. Douchen was ook lastig omdat je 20 minuten moest wachten voordat het water warm was. Er moest voor het gas extra betaald worden. Het was voor ons veel te rustig en afgelegen.

Sehr freundliche Verwalter, die nützliche Tipps geben.

We spent 7 days of absolute rest in a calm and perfect environment. The house is clean with a well tended gardena and a nice pool. The owner is very nice and everything was in line with the website. We recommend this property to those that enjoy resting, walking, nature, and excellent food and wine.

Nice modern villa in an undiscoverd area of Tuscany, our group of 8 people enjoyed a tranquil holiday in this property. We are part of a trekking club and we decided to explore the National Park of Casentino forests and Villa Pratovecchio was located right in the perfect spot for us. Florence is about 40 km away so this house is also convinient for those who want to explore the more touristic and known side of Tuscany.

Villa Pratovecchio was the perfect place for our family reunion: plenty of room inside and outside the house. Cooking in the kitchen was easy even with 2 or 3 people cooking at the same time. It was the first time we rented a house with a saltwater pool and we must say that it is a big plus: the kids didn't complain about burning eyes, we didn't smell like chlorine and the shower to wash off the salt is right next to the pool. The owner really thought of everything! The location is just off the beaten tourist path: an authentic Tuscan experience. Thank you!!

Wir waren skeptisch wegen der umliegenden Häuser, die doch ziemlich nahe bei dem Ferienhaus sind. Aber letztlich hat es gar nicht gestört, denn die Terrasse ist so gelegen, dass man ungestört essen kann und auch auch das Schwimmbad liegt nicht zu einsichtig für Nachbarn. Wir empfehlen das Haus weiter.

Wir hatten eine schöne Osterwoche in dieser Villa. Der Empfang war nett, die Villa ist sauber und gemütlich,; in den Ort kann man zu Fuss gehen. Es war genau der richtige Ort für uns. Vielen Dank.

Das Haus war schön, aber die Einrichtung total veraltet. Durchgelesen Betten, schimmlige Holzbrett in der Küche, alte durchgesehene Couch und 20 Jahre alter Röhrenfernseher. Da gehört etwas investiert. Die Besitzer waren sehr nett, trotz Sprachbarriere bemüht.

Pretty little village, fantastic house, pool and view. You can take the train to Arezzo which is worth a visit! Most recommendable. The beds could bedre better but the overall impression was great. We would like to come back.
