Comment by the Owner Il parcheggio privato c'è, ma nel retro della struttura a 30 metri dagli appartamenti da loro affittati. Vicino agli appartamenti nella strada pubblica dipende dalla presenza dei vicini in paese

“Perfect relaxation”

Luca and his family are very helpful and always available for questions or tips. It is like staying with family! The pool is great and has a wonderful view in the surrounding area. The location is perfect for trips to Siena, Arezzo or in the Chianti area. The apartments are spacious and well equipped and thoughtfully furnished and each bedroom has its own bathroom - what a luxury!

only the horse flies were bugging us at the pool - but that is nature :-)

“Vacanza rilassante in un borgo medievale”

Abbiamo soggiornato per una settimana a luglio, nell'appartamento Jacopo. Posizione strategica per visitare molte città nei dintorni (noi siamo arrivati fino a Orvieto). Luca è da subito stato molto gentile e disponibile e ci ha dato ottimi consigli. L'appartamento è davvero carino e attrezzato di tutto, e il giardino antistante, con vista sulla valle, ci ha permesso di fare colazioni e cene all'aperto. Molto caratteristico il sentiero di lavanda che porta alla piscina, anch'essa con vista, per un totale relax. C'e inoltre possibilità di usare il barbecue. Completa il tutto il fatto che la struttura si trovi in un borgo medievale: davvero suggestivo. Lo consigliamo vivamente.

“Owners were amazing, place was perfect, views were exceptional, swimming pool was very large and beautifully located.”

The place is at the top of a hill with beautiful views into the valleys and on surrounding hills. The apartments are all modernised and well appointed. All bathrooms had big fluffy towels. All kitchens had everything needed including a dishwasher. As we were a large group, with the help of the owners, we could put enough tables and chairs together on a large lawn so that all 38 of us could have meals together..We chose Pizzas and our host called the Pizzeria and ordered the pizzas for us. We only had to pick them up. We were having a family gathering of 15 families, (40 People), but the apartments had several bedrooms each with their own bathrooms. Everyone was absolutely happy and all children could be accommodated in separate rooms or the babies in cots where ever the parents wanted. The wheelchair assessable apartment worked very well. Interaction with the owners was always possible and they were always willing to help in any way they could. We had cooking lessons and the ''mama's even pre-cooked enough food so that all of us could have a very nice evening meal together. It was so good we did this twice.

The location is a bit away from villages (10 Km), and the location is only reachable by car. We had a couple of families that we just picked up from nearby located train stations. It did not negatively effect us, but having a car is best.

We had no food for my grandchildren and he suggested that one of us could go to the store while he drive me and my son to the train. We were so thankful for his help.

A very , very friendly and comitted owner, helpful and polite and all the time open for a small talk. Asking several times if eveything is fine or if he can do anything for us. A nearly 50 page website with detailled information about everything interesting in the near and far environment. Great recommendations for Firence, Siena and the seaside. Possibility to buy great Chianti and also to have a washing machine incl. powder. We got allowed to install our dartboard and to have a lot of matches there.

“Great place to stay and lovely host. Highly recommended.”

Beautiful and spacious apartment. Great view on the surroundings. Clean. Lots of stuff in the kitchen (e.g. microwave). Things to do for the kids (mini football). Drinking water (even sparkled). Very helpful host. He even took me on a cycling trip which was one of the highlights of my holiday. Also we forgot a tablet charger which he sent to our home address. So all in all very positive!

Not really negative aspects because overall we were very happy. The only thing that I want to mention is that the children were a bit disappointed about the fact that the swimming pool was closed. I understood that because of the water temperature that was forbidden, but maybe it could be mentioned more explicit on the website.

“Originally this trip was planned in Dec 2020 and it was delayed to Apr 2023 with the same location It is good that you could postpone the trip so that I could use it later In general the bb matched what I expected”

The space is adequate even for 4 people since our original plan was 4 people instead of 3 It has washing machine which allowed us to wash clothes and also heater paid by ourselves on gas consumption The host Luca has been helpful to resolve issues eg incompatible electric plugadapter and responsive in WhatsApp messages It was close to Arezzo and we surprisingly discovered that it was a good town with lots of things to explore eg antiques food and Gelato Arezzo has one of the best Gelato shop Sunflower which is equal or better than Gelateria Dondoli in San Gimignano Bucine which was the closest town had supermarkets stores cafe and restaurants The property note both online and hardcopy was very useful for us who visited Tuscany first time One more thing our flat could see sunrise every morning as all the rooms faced east side

The location was a bit far from Val DOrca and nearby Pienza which was our primary location to take photograph San Gimignano Montepulciano and Pienza required an hour drive nowadays gas price is high Perhaps the room rate had considered this aspect We had not expected Tuscany was so big that it took a lot of time to travel by car However this was due to us not having adequate research before coming to Tuscany It was cold at night so heater was definitely required so required extra cost One minor problem wifi in certain area of our flat sometimes had no connection signal For instance at the far end of the bedroom and we had to move to near the living room to regain WiFi connection

Comfort: It was very hot at night, even in September. Fans in the bedrooms would have been nice. Kitchen : a larger pan or casserole with lid to cook things like a whole fish or chicken for a group. Terrace: shrubs are a bit overgrown and could be trim to improve views and air circulation

Wow, was this stay perfect! My wife and I were celebrating our twenty-fifth anniversary, and we were joined by another couple. During our three-week tour of Italy, we stayed in Venice, Florence, Cinque Terre, Sorrento, and here in Tuscany. Our stay here was the highlight! Lucca, Luccia, Gisele, and Fortunato were perfect hosts - gracious, helpful, and very easy to work with before and during our stay. The apartment was spacious and had all amenities. The grounds, pool, and nearby area were heavenly. The location was within one hour of pretty much everything in Tuscany. And the highlight of highlights was our cooking class with Mamma!

A wonderful environment of nature, olive trees, fig trees and vineyards, peace, quietness, beautiful view of the surroundings, staying in the original farm buildings well adapted for guests with several centuries of history. Comfortable, large and clean swimming pool, nice barbecue areas and safe covered parking. Comfortable, large apartment rooms, well-equipped bathrooms and a kitchen for self-catering. A fantastic host, providing all the information and suggesting good opportunities to spend time in the surroundings and in the entire region. Access to restaurants and shopping in nearby towns within a few minutes by car.

a bit poor (as per our needs) Internet connection inside of the rooms , while very good in the other common areas (like swimming pool) , but the host is doing much to improve this situation.

Logements tres bien équipés et tres propres. Belle piscine et équipements collectifs (barbecues...) au rdv. Une region tellement belle ou les villes et leurs trésors comme Sienne, Florence, Montepulciano, Arezzo vous laisseront sans voix.... Tous les conseils de Lucas sont précieux et les adresses de bonne table dans les environs proches sont nombreuses.

La description du logement laissait penser que nous aurions eu un peu plus d'intimité au niveau de notre espace extérieur. Effectivement, certains gites sont positionnés autour d'une cour centrale ou tout le monde vit avec tout le monde. Cela ne nous aurait pas dérangé mais les familles voisines étaient trop bruyantes et peu respectueuses (jeux et cris d'enfants jusqu'à tres tard le soir et adolescents discutant sous vos fenêtres toute la nuit...) Il faut dire que cette année particulièrement nous aspirions à plus de calme d'ou notre déception à ce niveau. Suggestion pour Lucas : prevoir des ventilateurs en nombre suffisant pour les jours de canicule comme nous avons vécu cet été.

“A lovely view over a special part of Tuscany.”

8.1 Read the complete review

- The location is incredible. Forests, olives, wine, game, tranquility. - The pool is a nice touch, though bracing. - The owners are extraordinarily attentive, available and sweet.

It is important to say that the positives far outweigh the negatives. This was precisely what we were looking for and most of the downsides relate to nice-to-haves. - There are a lot of amenities at this place, but not all are in optimal condition. The TV was present but with only a handful of active channels, the internet was spotty, the bicycles are mostly unrideable.

The view! The isolated location of the romantic cottage on the hill was just perfect, having the swimming pool within walking distance to cool down. The wildlife (wild boars, crickets,, foxes, rabbits, etc) and BBQ equipment,

May be just some mosquitos spoiling sitting and reading outside at night, but in the dark you could watch the stars instead and listen to the sounds of the surrounding woods

“5 giorni di relax puro”

Un borgo tranquillo a pochi minuti d'auto da Siena. L'agriturismo si compone di tanti grandi appartamenti e zone verdi a volontà, in cui leggere e rilassarsi, sentieri in cui utilizzare le biciclette fornite dalla struttura, barbecue per grigliare in giardino; a completare il tutto, una piscina con vista sulle colline toscane, incorniciata da lavanda e ulivi. Il posto perfetto per rigenerarsi lontano dalla città, senza inerpicarsi troppo. Fortunato e la sua famiglia sono stati disponibili per ogni esigenza, facendoci sentire a casa. È veramente un posto consigliato, in cui sicuramente ritorneremo!

Casa in pietra locale in un delizioso borgo immerso nel verde; l'appartamento Sofia è arredato con gusto e con tutti i confort, ambienti ampi, con un bagno per ogni camera. Piacevole anche il giardino con tavolo per mangiare all'esterno e barbecue ( che però non abbiamo usato). Abbiamo apprezzato molto il silenzio e la compagnia delle rondini. L'agriturismo ha diversi appartamenti , è ideale per chi vuole viaggiare con amici o in diverse famiglie. È 15 minuti di macchina da Rapolano terme e in posizione baricentrica per visitare la Toscana Orientale. Il proprietario si è mostrato cordiale, disponibile e ci ha consigliato degli ottimi posti dove andare a mangiare.

Non abbiamo potuto godere della piscina, ma sarà un'ottima scusa per tornarci!

“Heaven in Tuscany”

We recently spent one month in Tuscany on a hilltop in an ancient village. This farmhouse is expertly run and wonderfully comfortable. It has all of the modern amenities, including wifi internet, a welcoming pool and deck, very comfortable apartments with full kitchens and cozy beds. We used our apartment as home base where we then took train trips to Florence, Venice and Cinque Terra. The train station was only thirty minutes away and had safe free parking for our trips. We were in major cities and always returned to the incredible solitude and beauty of this property. It was a perfect combination of the sites in Italy and the quiet reverence of a hilltop in Tuscany. By far the most incredible aspect was the warm, knowledgeable caring treatment we received from the proprietors Fortunato and Gisella. We toured their home with the wine cellar, we drank their incredible chianti and ''olive juice'' as Fortunato called it. We cannot express how wonderful our stay was and cannot wait to return to the heaven on the hilltop.

Borgo Rapale is perfectly situated to see Tuscany. On its own, it's a picturesque little village located in the heart of it all. Fortunato and Gisella were wonderful hosts and our apartment was a perfect fit. We especially appreciated the tour of the grounds by Fortunato to give us some of the history of the villa/town.

Borgo Rapale puts you in a position for short drives to Florence (north), Siena/San Gimignano (west), Montepulciano/Montalcino (south) and Cortona/Arezzo (east). We unexpectedly ran into the "palio" of the palle (balls) in Ambra on Sunday September 10th. Patterned after the palio in Siena, but with 5 teams racing through town pushing large balls . . . it was an unexpected little treat. We look forward to a return trip to Borgo Rapale in the future.

“Agréable séjour dans un cadre magnifique”

Cadre et panorama exceptionnel, sympathique petit village. Propriétaires très sympathiques, disponibles et accueillants. Restaurants et visites à proximité. On peut aller en train à Florence et Rome.

Locataires irrespectueux (on loue pour 4 et on va dans la piscine à 8) et propriétaires trop gentils. Moustiques !

On peut louer sans crainte...

L'accueil chaleureux des propriétaires et le charme des bâtiments . La piscine !

“Excellent accueil”

Fortunato et Gisela sont formidables et font tout pour faciliter notre accueil. Nous gardons un formidable souvenir de nos deux semaines à Borgo Rapale.

Le canapé-lit du séjour n'était pas très confortable. Quelques moustiques récalcitrants.

Un lieu de séjour très agréable avec sa piscine et sa tranquillité. Très bonnes glaces au café de Castelnuovo. Et tout cela à 20 minutes de Sienne. Nous reviendrons.
