We have just returned from an idyllic fortnight's stay in Villa Frassineta. The villa has been renovated superbly while retaining its original character. The decoration and furnishings are perfectly in keeping with the age of the property and yet it has all the modern conveniences you could wish for......wifi, Netflix, air con, etc etc. The linens were crisp and white, the towels soft and fluffy! And there was ample china and cutlery so that we never ran out. The gardens and pool are both large and well maintained by Lucciano who was there twice everyday but never intrusive. Our only regrets are that we didn't discover all the lovely outside lighting till the last night! Our fault...Daniela had told us where the switch was! Finally Daniela was so helpful throughout the whole time, from when we booked till we left. She recommended Antica Pieve and Menchettis for meals out both of which we visited twice. And we used the services of the chef on two evenings which worked really well for us. We have been staying in villas across Europe for the last 20 years and Villa Frassineta is undoubtedly one of the best!
Villa Frassineta is beautiful inside and out from the decorations to the lovely flower and vegetable garden to the pool. The house and grounds are much nicer than in the photos. It is the perfect house for a large family to spend time together in Tuscany. The kitchen is well equipped. There is a smart TV with Netflix. The house is a hour (or less) drive to many places of interest. We would highly recommend it for your next vacation! There is A/C on the second floor that works for those bedrooms. During the summer, The bedrooms on the third floor and 1st floor rooms. It was difficult for guests on the 3rd floor to sleep. If you open the windows, mosquitoes come in so asking for fans would fix this problem.
We had a wonderful vacation at the villa. It was the perfect location for day trips to the towns around it, and then the perfect retreat in the afternoon for a swim and a homemade meal. The house has a lovely garden, with flowers, vegetables, and fruits, which is perfect if you want to cook at the villa. We also hired the chef to cook for us, and it was spectacular! We had plenty of left over for another meal and the price was unbeatable. If you are looking for a place to relax, and enjoy Tuscany, this is the place for you! Danielle and her family were easily available at all times. We highly recommend it!
