We had a lovely stay at Podere La Sterza. The property was clean and well appointed. The pool area in particular is great for kids! Our hosts were very gracious to drive us to Pisa when our car broke down, so that went beyond our expectations. Recommended!

If you want to spend time in a unique place, this is the perfect house. It delights and you can fall in love and experience amazing moments. We felt like we were in an Italian fairy tale. Huge space, everything preserved in the Tuscan atmosphere. As for practical things: perfectly equipped. An ideal base for exploring Tuscany. I recommend it 100%.

What a beautiful house, pool and garden! The bedrooms were all a good size, ideal for our party of 6 adults. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of cupboard space (unusual in self catering properties!). The hot tap needs to be used with caution as it’s very hot. The veranda area was lovely, although the flies were off putting (it was very hot), so we moved dinner to later in the evening when we could enjoy the bats whizzing past instead. The Weber barbecue was a hit. The garden had lovely plants attracting lots of butterflies. The pool area was excellent and It was very peaceful. My sons enjoyed watching the cats and dogs next door. We know the area quite well and revisited Lucca, San Gimignano and Pisa, but mostly relaxed. We had a fabulous stay, thanks.
