A beautiful. authentic Tuscan home full of character and local charm. Immaculately clean, well stocked and homely. Perfectly placed to explore the area. Filippo, Caterina and Marco were wonderful hosts and made our stay really special. The best holiday house we have ever stayed in.

We, 2 retired couples, spent a marvelous week at CasaCaterina in mid-May 2026. We drove down from Florence and were greeted by Caterina and Marco, who were very charming. We never did meet host Filippo in person, though he was most responsive through WhatsApp.The house is old and charmingly appointed; it is very large and split into separate housing arrangements. While other people were staying somewhere, our area was very private and quiet. We had our own garden and upstairs deck; and a swimming pool (too cold to even consider). The views all around are absolutely splendid -- exactly what you picture for the Tuscany countryside.Our hosts suggested L'Archibugio, a small restaurant nearby with great food (like pizza with a deliciously thin! crust) and a nice local red wine.You'll love Giulio, the exuberant owner of Pizzeria Cafe Bistro, as well as his staff and the food. We enjoyed both our lunch and dinner. It's in the ZTL old town area, the perfect setting. And very near to Osteria Il Campanellino, another fun restaurant with amazing interior masonry.We were happy to find Caffe Amici -- good food and open ALL DAY. (As Californians, our eating times didn't match.)While in Volterra, we had dinner at Ristorante Beppino. We were looking for somewhere to eat at 5pm, so nothing much is open. But Massimo, the owner preparing for opening, had a table for us. He's got quite a story. Great dinner.Did I mention that we had a great time visiting CasaCaterina?

This is a beautiful, well maintained and well equipped property in a lovely location. The views and sunsets from the terrace are amazing. There are large ceiling fans in the living room and both bedrooms. The pool was perfect for cooling off in the heat. Filippo was most helpful with our questions. Thank you to Caterina and Marco also.

CasaCaterina was perfect! The house was clean, showers were roomy, and the bed comfortable! What a beautiful location! The weather was great, so we were able to use the pool after our daily adventures! Filippo, Caterina and Marco met us when we arrived to show us around. And Filippo kept in contact with us just in case we needed anything! The newly renovated Kitchen was perfect for the light cooking we did! Such a peaceful location! We were blessed to spend part of our travels here!
