"We had such a wonderful relaxing stay at this elegantly appointed villa set in the quiet Tuscan hills. Everything about Villa Tuscany is generous: the size of the rooms, each with an enormous ensuite bathroom, the many and varied places to sit or dine or read or sunbathe or gaze at the view, the kitchen which is brimful with crockery and glassware and cooking equipment, the WiFi, available and strong in each nook and cranny. This is all a reflection of the owner Yves whose care and good taste has made Villa Tuscany a luxurious retreat, secluded in the countryside yet near enough to Firenze, Siena, San Gimingnano and the hilltowns. We miss waking from our comfortable beds and wandering down to cook our market finds in the olive oil from the trees in the garden, generously supplied by Yves on arrival. We had many memorable meals, including a feast from Carla who cooked in the villa for us. As course after delicious course arrived at table, belts were surrepticiously loosened and one diner, who had succumbed to seconds of the main, had to retire before dessert...never mind there were enough left overs to go back to next day. We enjoyed meeting Yves and his 3 beautiful cats who live in a studio nearby, discreetly distant but always available to help if needed. It was a perfect holiday and we'd return here without hesitation.
