Our week at the Villa surpassed all expectations for our family get together! The Villa is truly special. Each room had its uniqueness! The breakfast service was a treat and meals prepared by in-house chef were wonderful. The outside table setting just perfect. Imprunetta village is only a short walk away (though need to be wary of cars)Domitila readily answered all queries leading up to our trip which made planning easy. We loved our tour of the vineyard, cellar and tasting. We really couldn’t fault our stay. Highly recommend. Thanks to Domitila and her team
This was the most amazing place for a family holiday. The Villa is incredibly beautiful and the surrounds are superb. Kids loved the pool. And just down the road is Florence!
The villa was absolutely spectacular with great services from the beginning to the end. I just think it was farther away than Florence and I had initially envisioned at least half an hour in mild traffic.
Nice villa in the Tuscan hills. We picked the hottest week of the year so we struggled with the heat but enjoyed the pool and slept well every night in the air conditioning. It’s half hour into Florence driving and Domitilla and staff were very helpful with recommendations. The meals prepared at the villa were wonderful too. We really enjoyed our family stay with the kids and grandkids!
Our family of 13 people ages 13-80 spent a wonderful week at La Querce in Tuscany.
The villa is grand, offering'comfortable spacious rooms ,beautifully furnished , including a wonderful dining room for family dinners.
The setting is picturesque with lots of outdoor space for the grandkids to play ball, and gather at the very large swimming pool.
We were welcomed and pampered by the staff.
It was a week our family will never forget.
Very nice villa with plenty of space. Ideal for families and friends. Good service and very professional handling. Very nice staff. All over very satisfying ng experience
The beautiful Villa and surrounding property are stunning enough to be featured in a romantic movie! We were a family of 14 members traveling together, ranging in age from twelve to mid seventies. The very large villa accommodated everyone well with room to spare. The bedrooms are large with delightful and unique furnishings. Most have en-suite bathrooms. The common living areas are very large and imposing. The grounds were my favorite part of the villa. The driveway has beautiful olive trees lining each side as you approach the entrance. There are rolling hills of vineyards which supply the grapes for the working vineyard. A tour was included- not to be missed. There is an inviting swimming pool with surrounding grounds which looked wonderfully inviting. Unfortunately we were there during November. Had it been warmer, that spot would have been a family favorite. Our experience was enhanced by the lovely people we were fortunate enough to interact with. Domitilla, Marco, Paola, Jesus, and Ivan were so accommodating and helpful. It was a lovely week. Several of the children begged to stay longer- that speaks volumes. Pat Franks and family
Everything about our stay was perfect. We had 11 adults, 5 couples and 1 solo. There was more than enough room for all of us, both inside and out. Our hosts were responsive, kind, and extremely welcoming at all stages of our stay. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, the kitchen stocked (but the knives need sharpened!) and the many sitting areas quite comfortable. We purchased a dinner to be cooked and served and OMG it was absolutely delicious. The staff cleaned almost every day and were very helpful and sweet. Our only regret is coming during a season when the pool wasn't open because it looks like a lot of fun. I can't wait to come back to this property once again. Thank you!!!
The property is fantastic, and met all our expectations. Domitilla was easy to communicate with. She was always kind, professional, helpful and easy to deal with. The family history of the villa and property is special. Appreciated the breakfasts prepared and served daily. Very clean! Loved our stay!
An oasis during the heatwave of Florence July 2023
The property is exactly as described and better. Domitilla is just a text away to answer any questions. Marco, the wine manager is so passionate about his craft make sure you take the vineyard tour with him. Jesus and Willy, the custodians, are helpful and pleasant. Wonderful to wake up to coffee and toast all days apart from Sundays. They kept the villa and our rooms immaculately. The pool is large and was much used by us all during the heatwave. Truly I can't say enough about this property, we thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you
We were so amazed at how beautiful the Villa was. It was everything and more than we thought it would be. The staff was amazing so unexpected. Domitilla , was so sweet and helpful and always answered any of our questions. Our family will never forget the special trip, I hope to come back someday it was just beautiful.
We loved this historic home. The property is stunning. The soccer goals were an added plus! House can get pretty warm and with the mosquitos hard to keep windows open. But overall lovely stay.
Splendid Week at Villa Le Querce with Our Extended Family
A group of our family gathered at the villa the week prior to our daughter's wedding and we had a marvelous time. The villa is incredibly spacious and the hosts were so kind. We never wanted to leave the property and the beautiful grounds. The chef prepared a delicious meal for us and the owners graciously conducted a lovely wine tour & tasting event for our group and other wedding guests (by pre-arrangement). We would not hesitate to return!
This was our second visit to La Querce. We loved it the first time and even more on the second visit. Domitilla and her staff are super hosts in this centuries-old villa with much natural charm and beauty set in the idyllic rolling hills south of Florence, just enough out of town to be in the countryside but close enough for a quick trip into the city when desired. The villa was clean and well-furnished. Domitilla was most helpful with advice on restaurants and attractions as we planned the trip. She and her staff made it super easy to get settled with our first day pre-arrival food shopping and evening dinner after many hours en route. The abundant estate-produced wines available in the villa plus a special tasting and winery tour led by Marco added to our enjoyment. We have so many fond memories of our time at La Querce and highly recommend it, particularly for larger groups of family and friends traveling to the region.
We just returned from a family trip of 9 adults at Villa La Querce. The villa is located on an amazingly beautiful property surrounded by olive orchards and vineyards. Lots of space, plenty of room to spread out and also to get together. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful. Domitilla is lovely, helpful and quick to respond to all communications. We tried one of her restaurant recommendations - la Padellina - and it was the best meal we had during our 2 weeks in Italy. Jesus and Will made wonderful breakfasts. We all agreed that the whole experience exceeded our expectations, and we hope to return!

This trip was for my family (sibilings) and a few of the adult children. There were 12 of us staying at La Querce and it was truly an amazing experience. From the original planning, Domitilla was gracious and helped us with all questions and alot of our planning. She was truly a blessing. The staff (Jesus & Wil) at the property were also great, they prepared breakfast daily and we able to help with any needs we had. The property itself is incredible, the views amazing, a huge home with plenty of room for a large family event. We had a cooking class at the Villa, we had a prepared dinner one evening and both were outstanding. I would highly recommend this Villa and look forward to visiting again in the future. Thank you to Domitilla and the House Staff...we could not have been more pleased or had a more enjoyable stay.
The property is huge. 3 very large living rooms plus a great room. Handles large groups well. On site staff helped a lot. Domitilla the owner gracious. The house is very old but they have made efforts to modernize. Lots of steps to overcome if any physical issues. Beds were very firm. Pool was a plus but mosquitos bit fiercely even with spray. Cabs from Florence was easy, getting cab back to Florence no good. Chauffeured service by Simon excellent but pricey. Overall good expirence
What a great place to have a family reunion! Domitilla and her staff did everything they could to make it a great experience for us. It was a week our four grandkids (age 6-10) as well as the rest of us will never forget. The Villa has everything you need….even an ice machine which is unheard of in Italy. I’ve already recommended La Querce to friends and family.
Our group of 9 persons (ages 19 - 57) was completely enamored with Villa La Cherche and all its’ offerings (don’t miss Marco’s Wine Tour and Chef Massimo’s cooking). Much gratitude to Domitilla and her wonderful Team for a delightful Tuscany experience!
Oftentimes expectations for a magnificent vacation outstrip the actual experience. But, in the case of this property and property owner and staff, just the opposite is true. My husband and I took our children and grandchildren (14 in all) to Florence and Paris for our 50 anniversary, birthdays and retirements. The absolute best part of our trip was a one-week stay in La Querce in Impruneta. This is truly a villa, not just a large house. The layout and spaciousness were perfect for our family--7 very large bedrooms and ensuite baths. The staff prepares and CLEANS UP from breakfast every morning, and then cleans the rooms and bathrooms, etc. Also, there is a chef at the villa who will make your dinners on request if you so choose (We had two terrific meals). The pool is very large, easy to walk to (2 minutes) and not too very deep--so wonderful for kids playing for hours. Also, included in the villa is a vineyard tour and wine tasting with croustades if you would like. It was interesting and the wine is outstanding. The villa and winery, and olive groves are owned by the Marchi family, and Domitilla is the contact for the villa rental. I cannot stress how helpful and wonderful she was both in our pre trip correspondence and upon our arrival.
She gave us information about transportation into Florence (about 25 min.) and where to go and what to see. She is fluent in French and English as well as Italian.. There were no surprises or hidden costs!
La Querce also has a large space for a soccer field with goals,
and foosball and pingpong. We came in from day trips in Chianti and Florence to this wonderful, peaceful, gorgeous retreat each afternoon. After swimming and dinner--soccer games with everyone involved went on for hours.
I'm not sure if we will ever get back there, but if the opportunity presents itself none of us would be able to resist. My children have all told me that they are spoiled for life.
We are now eagerly awaiting the wine we ordered when we left.
Oh, one more thing. Domitilla was kind enough to direct me to another local chef who came to the villa for a day to teach us how to make an authentic Italian meal from scratch. The kids were completely taken with Babs's instruction and loved making the curly little pasta by hand! Then they served us this grand meal out on one of the beautiful lawns of the villa. Really, a slice of heaven.
The villa was exactly like the pictures and even more! Domitilla was an amazing host and made our trip memorable from beginning to end! We would love to return to this beautiful and will highly recommend it to anyone wanting to book a once in a lifetime dream vacation!!
