Amazing Tuscan Retreat
This place was so amazing. It is very large and appropriate for 5-6 adults. Volterra is a wonderful Tuscan town with cafes, shops, restaurants and groceries. The check in process was seamless and we used WhatsApp for communication throughout our stay. Alessandro was amazing and very accommodating. His recommendations for eating and what to see were very helpful. I highly recommend this place as it is close to Pisa and Frienze.

Sehr ordentlich, Lage jedoch zu laut
Gleich zu Beginn: Das Haus liegt in einem Tal direkt vor einer Kurve an einer kleineren Straße nach Pisa und zu einem Gewerbegebiet auf ungefähr 120 Meter Seehöhe. Die Straße wird oft befahren. Am Wochenende sehr gern von lauten Motorrädern. Es ist erst abends richtig ruhig. Der Pool ist nicht beheizt. Die Internetverbindung ist miserabel, auch im Haus mit gut erreichbarem Wi-Fi. Hätten wir das gewusst, hätten wir es nicht gemietet. Die Kommunikation und der Empfang mit dem Gastgeber war sehr ordentlich und perfekt. Das Haus in der Toskana in Volterra war sehr sauber, gepflegt und das Anwesen selbst war auch sehr gepflegt. Die Innenausstattung des Hauses ist gut. Die Küchenausstattung ist hinsichtlich Kochmesser (unscharf), Besteck und Töpfe leider unzureichend. Zwei Bäder sind großzügig und schön. Jedoch sind die Duschkabinen viel zu klein. Es wäre viel mehr Platz für komfortable Duschen. Die Betten waren für Erwachsene bedauerlicherweise nicht bequem. Durch die Konstruktion mit nur einer Matratze rollt man im 1,80 m Doppelbett automatisch in die Mitte und die Unterkonstruktion ist nicht sehr stabil. Der Vermieter hat auf unsere Bitte hin versucht, das zu korrigieren. Ungünstigerweise erfolglos. Wir haben uns das dann anders arrangiert. Da wir häufig unterwegs waren und Urlaub machen wollten, haben wir es uns erspart, das Haus zu reklamieren. Freundlichkeit, Empfang waren ausgezeichnet. Ruhe, Lage, Bettenqualität & Sanitär haben nicht unsere Erwartungen erfüllt.

Traumhaftes Toskanaflair
Alessandro war ein super Gastgeber und immer gleich zur Stelle wenn wir Fragen hatten. Das Haus ist etwas älter aber genau wie beschrieben. Wenn man die Einfahrt rauf fährt ist man angekommen in der wunderschönen Toskana. Der Pool war rießig und sehr sauber! Auch der Garten ist sehr gepflegt und aufgeräumt! Alles in allem ein traumhafter Urlaub, der leider schon vorbei ist!

Typisch toskanisches Bauernhaus
Ein typisch, toskanisches Bauernhaus mit viel Garten und einem Pool lädt zu einem erholsamen Urlaub ein. Wir haben im August eine Woche bei durchschnittlich 35 Grad im Schatten hier verbracht. Nach eher kurzen Ausflügen in die Umgebung haben wir viel Familien-Zeit auf der Veranda und am Pool verbracht. Nicht nur der Pool sondern auch der Tischkicker und die Tischtennisplatte unter dem riesigen Nussbaum waren der absolute Hit für unsere Kinder und uns. Das Haus haben wir nur zur Nacht „benötigt“ und tagsüber verschlossen, dunkel und damit halbwegs kühl gehalten. Es ist an sich nicht super luxuriös, sondern eher für die Toskana typisch und einfach aber gut eingerichtet. Wichtig: in den Schlafzimmern gibt es Klimaanlage. Der Gastgeber Alessandro war sehr nett und zuvorkommend, hat sich gut um uns und unsere Fragen gekümmert und uns viele Tipps für Ausflüge und Restaurants gegeben. Er hat uns sogar mit frischen Tomaten und Eiern versorgt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt…

Lovely Tuscan Holiday
We had a wonderful holiday at Le Macine. The pool and house were great. And Alessandro the host was very helpful and we enjoyed a lovely meal at his nearby restaurant. We hope to come back again in the future.
