Casale Tagliafune is Superb!
This is our fourth time at Casale Tagliafune and we simply love the villa, the countryside and how close it is to Florence, Siena and the wineries across Tuscany. Loredana is a wonderful host. We had 9 friends and family with us on this trip and we know we will be back.

A stunning villa with unprecedented views.
I cannot wait to visit this home again in the spring or fall, as our stay was quite warm. I wish we could have enjoyed the most beautiful home I’ve ever stayed in for longer hours during the day, but we visited during a heat wave. Still, every view, whether inside or out, is gorgeous. And the pool is magnificent. Loredana is the most gracious host. And all of her suggestions were very helpful. If, like me, you’ve had fantasies of staying in a Medici retreat in the hills or valleys of Tuscany, this home is for you.

Mixed Feelings
The property is beautiful and in that way matched expectations. The host, Loredana, is wonderful. Easy to get into Florence, just a twenty minute drive to the parking lot at Costanza and a quick tram ride in. Unfortunately, the week we stayed the temperatures were 95 - 100 degrees every day, cooling down to the low 70s at night. The villa is made of stone and thus it retained the heat. The villa has no air conditioning and the first floor interior temperatures reached the low 80s during the day. The second floor, where the bedrooms are, was even warmer. We kept the windows closed during the day and kept the lights off to try and keep it cool. Around 8:30pm we opened the second floor windows to begin to get some cooler air in; this helped, but it took several hours to get down to the low seventies....and, mosquitoes had a field day on arms and legs. Again, the property is lovely, but given the weekly cost I would have expected the host to have several portable wheeled air conditioning units available to help keep the indoor temperatures, especially for sleeping at night, bearable. Electricity costs for the week are passed on to the renters anyway (98 euro for our week....seems high given we used lighting very little?), so increased electrical consumption wouldn't adversely affect the host. I very rarely post anything other than positive reviews, but wanted to present the possible challenging conditions you might encounter if you are considering booking in summer.

Absolutely amazing stay!
Loredana’s home was STUNNING and perfect for our group of 9! We loved the pool and all of the outdoor dining spots throughout the property. We used Loredana’s recommendations for a chef and driver and both were absolutely wonderful. Loredana has a real eye for design and every detail throughout the house was chosen intentionally and it created such a beautiful backdrop for our vacation. We are counting down the days until we can go back!!

Magical!!
This property is breathtaking and from the moment you drive the Cypress lined driveway you are transported into a surreal experience I can only describe as magical. Loredana met us at the gate upon arrival and from that moment on I was blown away by the beauty and charm of this 15th century paradise. The pictures online were great but they are nothing compared to seeing it in person. She gave us a tour of the house and all the amenities. Everything is provided. The views are out of this world and there isn't anyone around so my kids could play and run around without worry. There are two kittens on the property and they were one of the highlights! We loved watching them play. The pool was fantastic, the property was spotless, plenty of space for my family of 6. There is a beautiful vineyard just a few yards down the driveway where we got some great photos. We wanted to arrange for a chef to come in one night and cook for us and Loredana put us in contact with Lorenzo and Emilia and it was an out of this world amazing meal!! We are grateful for our time here and cannot wait to go back!

A Dream Come True!
I knew that this was going to be a beautiful property, but I didn’t anticipate just how surreal it would be to stay there. It is absolutely stunning and while the pictures are nice, it’s somehow even better in person - quintessential Tuscany. To recap: (1) The villa – each room is unique, tastefully decorated and complete with every comfort that you may need. For each meal we were eager to choose a new location (there are 7 options!) and afterwards we could select from various seating areas. (2) The property – is carefully maintained and landscaped and oh my the pool! We were lucky to enjoy incredible summer weather and nothing was better than coming back after a day of exploration and jumping in the pool. The home is fabulously located, under an hour’s drive (or much less) to any of the region’s main attractions. (3) The host – receives my utmost compliments! Loredana was so lovely and welcoming and was incredibly responsive to anything we might have needed. She helped us arrange transportation and a chef and everything worked out perfectly. She also helped me with my planning, offering various suggestions in the weeks leading up to our travel. This was a family trip to celebrate a milestone birthday and it exceeded expectations in every way. We are still on cloud nine; it was an experience we will never forget (and hope to repeat before long!). If you have the opportunity to book this amazing place, do not hesitate! And our sincere gratitude to Loredana!

Hervorragend mit wenigen Abstrichen
Sehr schönes Anwesen, grosszügig und gepflegt, toller Pool, gute Aussicht. Jedoch (1) keine Klimaanlage und (2) keine Mückengitter bei den Fenstern. Es war sehr heiss und wir konnten uns auch im Haus nicht abkühlen. Zudem haben uns die Mücken zugesetzt: Ohne Insektenspray war in der Dämmerung und in der Nacht kein Auskommen; (3) der Zufahrtsweg ist Naturstrasse und sehr steil, so dass sie sehr holprig war. Trotzdem können wir uns vorstellen, das Haus wieder mal zu buchen, jedoch nicht im Hochsommer.

A Little Piece of Heaven
Words can’t describe how beautiful this place is. It is everything you could imagine for a Tuscan villa and so much more. The house is beautiful and the scenery is breathtaking. The house is decorated beautifully with ever amenity you could need and outside the views are amazing with views of vineyards and even hot air balloons floating by in the morning. Our host Loredana was also fantastic. She met us at the property to show us around, explain everything, and make sure we had everything we needed. Loredana and her beautiful home made our stay here the highlight of our 3 week Italian vacation. We absolutely hated to leave and are now only thinking about when we can get back to stay here again. Thank you Loredana for the absolute privilege of being able to stay at your amazing home!

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our family at this absolutely amazing villa! It far exceeded our expectations! Loredana was a gracious host and very responsive to our needs. She did an incredible job restoring this 600 year old treasure. The views were breathtaking and the pics do not do it justice!

Best Villa in the Tuscan region!
Upon arrival, we were greeted by the owner (our host). She gave us a very thorough tour of the house & instructed us on how to use everything. We were a party of 8 people (4 couples) & were very comfortable with each couple having their own bedroom & full bathroom. The villa, in addition to the location, is indescribable. The words we used on first sight were, stunning, breathtaking, unbelievable & WOW! My heart will forever be a part of this magnificent Villa. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Tuscany!!!

This property was everything we hoped for and more. Loredana was a joy to work with...helping me arrange transfers and a private dinner at this beautiful home. She even picked me up a couple bottles of wine from a neighbor's vineyard and baked us a delicious cake - what a welcome surprise!

Außerordentlich
Die Unterkunft ist überwätigend- mit dem Flair der Medici! Loredana, unser liebenswürdiger Host, hat dieses Haus mit so viel Liebe zum Detail umgebaut und ein echtes Juwel geschaffen. Der Blick aus dem Garten in das Val di Pesa ist unbeschreiblich! Im Garten befindet sich der wohl schönste Swimmingpool, den wir jemals 'beschwommen' haben. Immer wieder bestaunt man die Hochwertigkeit aller Materialien und auch der Einrichtung. Nach Florenz ist es ein Katzensprung- der Weg vom Haus bis zur Haupststraße ist etwas steil und bei Regen auch etwas holprig, aber langsam gut zu meistern. Loredana ist immer erreichbar und äußerst diskret. Wir hatten das Gefühl von vollkommener Freiheit auf dem großen Grundstück. Wir können die Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen und kommen sehr gerne wieder! Danke Loredana für die schöne Woche!

Awesome house! Great experience!
The house definitely keeps what it's promising! Great features, in a quite area with an awesome garden and pool. Also, the owner was very nice and not complicated at all. We would definitely go again and can only recommend it! The only point of improvement is the last 200m of road to the house which would need some work to fill all the potholes.

Unforgettable Tuscan Experience
This villa and the experience it comes with is hard to explain in words. For starters, it is only a 25 minute drive outside Florence, and has immediate proximity to a lengthy list of family run wineries and quaint Tuscan towns. The owner, Loredana, is extremely responsive, helpful with any type of suggestion, and (possibly most important) will coordinate homemade Tuscan meals at the villa within 24 hours. The property itself is stunning, with views over the Tuscan hillside, numerous indoor and outdoor dining locations, comfortable sleeping areas, and a wonderful pool. I stayed here for a week with my wife and two other couples and we would recommend this property to anyone we know.
