The location of this property is idyllic- so tranquil! We enjoyed two thoroughly relaxing weeks in June/July and felt like we'd found a bit of a hidden gem. The views are stunning and the property is surrounded by olive trees and vineyards. It's ideally placed to explore this beautiful region.The hosts are delightful, friendly and discreet (the lovely Serenella and her family). Any language barrier was easily solved with mobile phone translators.The pool is huge and very well maintained daily. It is in the sun all day but large parasols give plenty of shade.The house has great clean bathrooms, great wardrobe space in the bedrooms and provides most of the basics needed for a stay. It could perhaps benefit from a bit of an update but was just fine for us.The approach road is rustic but easily managed. We rather enjoyed looking out for hares and deer!The nearest village of Palazzone has a great pizzeria restaurant, Madonna del Carmine, which serves simple but really tasty home made food. We found ourselves rather reluctant to leave at the end of our holiday and wouldn't hesitate to return to this property.

This is our second stay at the house and our third visit to Pallazone. We love the area which is very peaceful and beautiful. Serenella, who looks after the hoyse, is wonderful.

Situated on one side of the valley looking across to woodland and vineyards this is a very peaceful location. The house is spacious and well equipped and the pool is a great size for swimming. If you enjoy bird watching this place is wonderful. You can sit on the veranda and listen to the birdsong and see a variety of birds. The location is convenient to San Casciano and Città della Pieve where there are some good restaurants. With a cantina down the road providing good wine and markets around to visit you can self cater with ease. We have fallen in love with this valley and we will be back to visit again.

The villa was very clean as was the amazing pool. A very peaceful location albeit quite rural. The photos do not do this great villa justice.
