“Excellent stay. The owners were super friendly and helpful. The surroundings are excellent with a splendid sunrise and sunset.”

Lucia and Daniele were super friendly and nice and funny to us and our little son of 1 year. The view through the hills of Tuscany are beautiful. Staying at this property gives you a real Tuscan feeling. The apartments are spacious and fully equipped. It is possible to rent airco, but we did not use it. The apartments have lots of shadow and good possibilities to darken the room. It was also possible to charge our electric car, which was really nice to be able to move around Tuscany, without even have to think where to charge the car. At the pool you can sunbath or you have lots of shadow under the beautiful olive trees. We had the most wonderful time at the end of summer 2020, which was a real gift to us during this year with lots of government restrictions all over the world.

The beds were a bit too hard for our needs.

“Sehr schöner Urlaub”

Die Tage auf der Unterkünft waren ausgezeichnet. Unsere Erwartungen wurden sogar übertroffen. Man hat gemerkt, dass die Besitzerin die Unterkunft mit Leidenschaft führt! Sie hat gute Empfehlungen für Restaurants abgeben können, hat sich für die Wünsche der Gäste eingesetzt und hat dafür gesorgt, dass wir uns rundum wohlfühlen. Die Gegend ist mitten in der Natur auf einer Anhöhe mit einem wunderschönen Blick auf die toskanische Landschaft. Wirklich empfehlenswert!

Ist mir nichts aufgefallen..

“Se cercate la tranquillità, questo è il posto giusto!”

Il casale è meraviglioso: adagiato su un poggio, vigne e ulivi a perdita d’occhio. Il nostro appartamento, grande, curato e molto pulito, affacciato sulla piscina, che ci ha accolto e coccolato dopo le nostre gite mattutine. La posizione è fantastica per visitare San Gimignano, Volterra, Lajatico e girovagare in e-bike tra i colli. Ma niente paura, nulla è lasciato al caso: il valore aggiunto è Lucia che ci ha viziati con colazioni gustose, ha prenotato i ristorantini ogni sera per noi e ha organizzato un’escursione in e-bike molto bella. Grazie Lucia: sempre gentile ma mai invadente! E in ogni angolo di questo meraviglioso luogo abbiamo ritrovato la cura e la passione di Daniele per la sua terra. Consigliare una fuga qui è il minimo che possiamo fare, nell’attesa di ritornarci!

Dover ripartire!

“Great holiday!!!”

We stayed at this great place for 2 weeks! We opted for the glamping tent: great experience! Beautiful swimming pool, delicious breakfast every day and a super host and hostess, Lucia & Daniele! Our car broke down and Lucia helped us very well; no effort is too much for her. Siena, Lucca, Firenze, San Gimignano, Volterra, the coast ... all possible from this beautiful agriturismo in Peccioli. Nothing but praise. Don't hesitate: book and enjoy

“Holiday house in the middle of peaceful Tuscany”

We stayed for a week in October. The accommodation is located in the middle of the beautiful hills. From the place, you have a wide view, with sunset. Luccia, the women who owns the place is very kind. She knows great places to go for dinner, she explains where to find the pretty tuscan villages and she helped us arrange winetasting and truffle hunting. She always is in for a chitchat at breakfast and she makes you feel welcome and special. The breakfast is well organized with fresh made cappuccino’s. The accommodation is big enough to spend the day (also with the pool), but in the area are also enough villages to visit to go for a day trip. For a relaxing holiday with good food, I recommend everyone yo go.

We had an apartment on the ground floor, which was a bit noisy from the above neighbors. I recommend an apartment on the first floor instead.

“Such an amazing place. I would miss that view !”

Words cannot describe the beauty of Tuscany. The place itself is magnificent, and the hospitality of Lucia is fantastic. I would highly recommend

Some little infrastructure maintenance would make it even better - mainly to fix the AC in the Appartment’s kitchen we were staying at and the water pressure in the shower which was low. Other then that nothing else needs to be done.

“Feel your shoulders drop as you approach Antica Fornace. Any tension or stresses melt away as you pull into Olive tree lined the driveway. Your vacation starts now - taste, relax, return.”

Luccia was a breath of fresh air, so welcoming & approachable. Our stay was in Il Granio - Clean, Open & Beautiful. The Breakfast spread was over the top delicious with baked goods from Luccia & other local treats like fresh yogurt from a farm nearby. The pool was perfect, the views were phenomenal & we rested well in our rooms & on the patio.

Luccia is very helpful in planning your day trips from Antica Fornace. She is full of advice & expertise. She was even kind enough to offer to contact our car rental agency for us since we didn't speak good Italian. There is a great list provided for nearby stores, restaurants & other amenities. Don't forget to purchase some of Antica Fornace's Olive Oil.

We were travelling with relatives and friends and saw all the available accommodation. All were to a very high standard. The pool area is lovely with comfortable seating and great views. Breakfast was good with home baking.

A minor point but it would be nice to have general daily cleaning included in the price. Accommodation was spotless on arrival though.

Lucia is a great source of information and advice and will book restaurants and tickets for her guests. Volterra was lovely and not too busy when we visited in May. It takes a while to get anywhere as these are country roads and not fast routes!

Calme et verdure assurés! Nous enfants ont surtout profité du bois juste à côté de la propriété. Un appartement indépendant avec petit déjeuner servi nous correspond parfaitement lors qu’on voyage avec des enfants (3 & 6 ans). Nous avons pu admirer des lapins et chevreuils en pleine nature :)

Lucia was very knowledgeable about local restaurants and activities and made bookings for us once we had chosen what to do.

The roads are very windy off the main highways, so care is needed when driving in the Tuscan hills.

“Ein Juwel im Herzen der Toskana ”

Alles war absolut positiv! Lucia, die Inhaberin ist sehr feundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Sie hat uns viele Tipps für unsere Tagesausflüge gegeben und Restaurants oder Museen reserviert. Sie hat sich um alle unsere Anliegen und Wünsche schnell und kompetent gekümmert. Ihre nette und authentische Art machte unseren Aufenthalt sehr angenehm. Die gepflegte Anlage hat eine traumhafte Lage, etwas abgelegen daher sehr ruhig, mit toller Sicht über die Toskana. Entspannung pur! Die Poolanlage ist sehr sauber und gepflegt und wir haben die Erfrischung sehr genossen. Angenehm ist auch der tägliche kleine Frühstücksservice und wir kamen in den Genuss an einem Samstag ein tolles toskanisches Abendessen von Lucias Familie serviert zu bekommen. Einfach köstlich! Danke schön! Wir (3 Pers mit Kind 8 J.) hatten traumhafte zwei Wochen Aufenthalt Ende August und der Abschied viel uns schwer.

Enjoy the Italian food and wine, listen to the advices of Lucia and visit the nearby cultural highlights (Volterra, Pisa etc). There is plenty of choice. And keep some sightseeings in reserve for the year(s) after when you come back.

“A warm welcome in beautiful surroundings”

Claudia made our stay special by looking after us so well and giving us addresses of restaurants she recommended in the surrounding villages. The Saturday night meal her mother-in-law cooked for residents was simple, Tuscan, farmhouse food at its best, with their own ingredients and wine. A beautiful cake was cooked each day for residents to take a slice at breakfast - it was all perfect.

My (adult) children found the internet connection rather intermittent, but I was glad of the break from constant internet access!

Ask Claudia for her recommendations for local visits and farther afield too. For example, she advised us not to try to visit coastal towns over the weekend, as many tourists as well as local families would be travelling to the coast and the traffic there would be bad. So we visited lovely little hill towns, and restaurants, in the vicinity and a visit to Andrea Bocelli's Theatre of Silence, at Lajatico, (so called as he gives one concert there in July and otherwise it is silent in magnificent scenery all year round) is well worth the trip.

The pool was clean and very refreshing after a long day visiting towns nearby or hiking. Antica Fornace is a few miles from the nearest town, so driving at night might be difficult for some. We had a dinner of bread, wine, fruit and cheese several evenings in our fully stocked kitchen, and ate out a larger meal during the day while sightseeing. Our two bedroom, two bath apartment was perfect for two couples traveling together. Lovely views from all windows!

Lucia was very flexible. She kept in touch with me in the run up to the holiday and allowed us to arrive late. She was very helpful with booking activities and suggestions for places to visit. She had limitless enthusiasm and took great pride in the property. The kitchen was stocked with the essentials. A daily continental breakfast was provided.

The windows leaked when there was a strong westerly wind but Lucia came into the apartment to clear up the water. There was a day bed but there were no arm chairs to relax in. There was only one key to the apartment and the door locked automatically as you left.

The local 'town' consisted of half a dozen houses and no facilities. Any shops and restaurants were a short drive away but worth the drive. The walking routes were not well marked and the maps were difficult to follow. The GPS on my phone did work though, getting us safely back home. The pool was fresh and well maintained. Towels were provided. A really beautiful setting and a lovely place to relax and enjoy the olive groves.

“Adorable Owner! Lovely landscape!”

Very quiet, beautiful and peaceful property. Okay, it was October, low season... Just us and a few more guests... Don't know if it's "quiet " in the high season, probably no, which makes sense.

Nope

We experienced a cycle race around the small countryside. Nice to see! Lucia is ADORABLE! Very helpful, very nice person! Since our first contact by phone, she was very friendly. I highly recommend this place!

Comment by the Owner Ciao! Thank you so much to share your experience in Tuscany! It was nice and pleasant to spend time with you. In low season it is quieter and perfect to visit the most important and beautiful Art Cities of Tuscany. A big Hug! See you the next Time :-) Lucia
