Review for stay from 06 April 2025 to 13 April 2025

This is a picturesque and beautiful villa in a remote area of Tuscany but within easy reach of Pisa, Florence and east for day trips to the Chianti route and Sienna. We were lucky and had lovely weather so were able to make use of the outdoor pool. We were a family of 9 and the villa was roomy and nice and warm. Silvia was extremely accommodating, allowing us into the villa early and welcoming us. She was very helpful when we left some important property at the villa and was very quick to respond to us.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely villa, and Silvia and Lorenzo were so kind and helpful. Thank you both. The villa is fantastic, everything is there, and especially a warmth and comfort. The gardens are outstanding, thanks to Michele, who worked every morning to make it lovely. Our four year old grandson thought that the play equipment was the best ever, I thought the evenings views were! We would absolutely recommend this villa and the kind and friendly owners.

The Villa Fontine, aka Villa Niccolai, is a tremendous property, with excellent comforts, exquisite grounds, and a pastoral location. It is a very authentic Tuscan villa, looking small from the outside but is open and spacious inside. Multiple outdoor dining locations are available: poolside, under a new poolside curtained gazebo, in the garden, or under the porch awning. The owners, Angela (mother) and Sylvia (daughter), were gracious, warm, and welcoming. We did a special dinner with a chef the first night and it was divine. It is a great space for kids ages 4 and up (for younger tots, there are lots of stone stairs and the pool is not fenced), with plenty of room to run around outside. Only a few slight negatives: wifi isn't very strong so must stay close to host's house (no signal on porch or at pool); neighboring roosters start calling at 4:30 am, an authentic but not ordered wake-up call; the owner's house is very close to the villa, but owners not i! ntrusive at all; gardening commences at 7 am or earlier each morning. Overall, it was a magnificent place to stay. Villa comment (5/5): A very comfortable and well furnished villa, with all the needed seating and kitchen tools available. Cleanliness comment (5/5): Very clean. Location comment (5/5): Perfectly pastoral, it could be a little remote for some. Major supermarket is 20 to 25 minutes away by car, small village store is 10 minutes away. Lucca and Montecatini-Terme 30 minutes away, Firenze and Pisa within easy 1 hour drives.
