We had a fantastic stay at I Gelsi. Very big and comfortable house with stunning views over Tuscany. The pool was also very welcome in the heat. Federica was an excellent host. We even went paragliding which was amazing. Would love to go back one day!!

A wonderful week in Tuscany
A wonderful week in Tuscany
We spent a week at La Casetta di Castell'Anselmo in early May this year. This is a wonderful location for a vacation in the Tuscany region of Italy. La Casetta, located on the top of a hill, provides stunning views of the Tuscan country side. It was amazing to sit outside in the morning and evenings gazing at the vistas with the fragrance coming from the roses and other flowering plants. Sitting in the middle of several hectares of property there are olive trees, vineyards and gardens surrounding the house.
The house is large, elegant and very comfortable. I Gelsi, the unit we rented, has a large eat-in kitchen, large dining room, living room, media room and several sitting areas, three bedrooms, swimming pool and BBQ. It is well equipped, and beautifully decorated.
La Casetta is located in the middle of wine country. The owners, Federica and Francesa, are friendly and helpful and are willing to assist with information about the area, make arrangements for wine tours and provide recommendations of places to visit and directions to locations. We used I Gelsi as a home base to make day trips to places of interest in the area, including Pisa, Lucca, Livorno, Florence, Bolgheri, Volterra, a stunning beach and others.
In retrospect, we should have planned to stay longer. We considered this to be a rare find, fully enjoyed our stay and highly recommend I Gelsi. Federica, Francesca, thank you from all of us for your hospitality, you made our first trip to Tuscany an amazing experience and we hope to have the opportunity to return in the future.

Sublime, idéal avec des enfants. Proprio super!

Sublime, idéal avec des enfants. Proprio super sympa. Paysage reposant, position stratégique pour visites culturelles, culinaires et promenades dans la campagne toscane. Encore merci pour l'accueuil chalereux de Federica!!
Der Aufenthalt hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Haus ist wirklich großzügig und vollständig und mit schönen alten Möbeln eingerichtet. Wir würden das Ferienhaus jederzeit weiter empfehlen. Der Blick von der Terrasse in die Landschaft ist so schön, dass wir uns gar nicht daran satt sehen konnten. Der Pool liegt etwas abseits und hat eine gute Größe. Die Kinder haben dort viel gebadet. Einzig die Sauberkeit in der Küche und teilweise in den Badezimmern war nicht optimal. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und hilfsbereit und haben uns eine angenehme Zeit bereitet.

Nous avons été absolument séduit par cette location, superbe, spacieuse, fidèle à l'annonce. Située en haut d'une colline, au calme, entourée d'oliviers et de cigales, c'est idéal pour le repos et la détente. Le léger vent presque permanent (ou était-ce une semaine exceptionnelle?) fait que la chaleur est vraiment relative, et la maison reste fraîche ce qui permet de bonnes nuits de sommeil.
Nous avons découvert la magnifique Toscane (Pise, Lucca, Sienne, Florence...) grâce notamment aux conseils avisés de la propriétaire Federica, toujours disponible, chaleureuse, accueillante, souriante!
Quand nous avons posé la question à nos 4 enfants âgés de 10 à 19 ans, de savoir s'ils avaient aimé nos vacances, ils ont tous répondu sans hésiter que "c'était bien mieux qu'une semaine en Grèce en all inclusive !", c'est dire!
Nous remercions chaleureusement Federica et Nicolo pour leur accueil parfait, et nous serrons la patte de Gine et Spina :-)
Nous gardons votre adresse précieusement, car soyez sûrs que nous reviendrons dès que la vie nous le permettra.
