Beautiful Villa with Mountain Vistas!
Our stay was absolutely calming and relaxing. The pool is heavenly, especially after a long days travel And great for sunbathing. We love that the villa was located in the countryside, Where it was quiet and peaceful and no hustle and bustle of urban traffic/people. However, We had fairly close access to several towns such as Arezzo, Florence, and Rome. We were very close to the old medieval town of Anghiari, where we had a delightful lunch At a local restaurant and visited Museums and old medieval churches. Our host Lorenzo and his family were Very helpful and made for a perfect stay at the villa. The villa is very safe and secure. It has a full kitchen and a washer and plenty of space to spread out. The night sky in the evening is absolutely beautiful.This is a must stay and visit destination place. We will definitely return next year!!!

Beautiful, relaxing stay with pool and great views
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Il Castellaccio. There are stunning views in all directions with lovely gardens and outdoor seating, and a great pool which we used many times. It is very quiet and the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. The private apartment is larger than we anticipated, which was great, and has beautiful views and nice light. We rented one of the two apartments that make up the old stone guest house (which stayed cool in the sun!). The hosts live in a separate house nearby, and were very kind and welcoming. The kitchen is well-equipped, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. From the house, it was a short and scenic drive to the beautiful medieval town of Anghiari, and a slightly longer but easy drive to the larger city of Arezzo. There are also smaller towns even closer by with small shops for groceries and water, which you need to buy. Highly recommend!

Tranquil Break.
Stayed for a week. Great welcome by Pier Francesco and Simonetta. A beautiful farmhouse with plenty of space inside and out. The view from the gardens are wonderful. Owing to the rural nature of the property, a hire car is an essential if you want to explore Tuscany I would say. The local town of Anghiari is lovely with lots of little trattoria. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away from it all! Would certainly stay again in the future if still available.

Villa in Arezzo
Pier and his wife were GREAT to work with! The villa was well stocked and the showers were very good. Getting to the villa was OK (the mountain was at least 20-30 minutes to get up). We asked Pier and his wife to get a local chef to prepare a Tuscan meal for us and they found a perfect lady for us! The food was outstanding! I recommend this villa to those who want to experience the "true" Italy life! Also, the screens on the windows were a nice touch so that you could get the breeze but not the bugs.

Relaxing under the Tuscan sun
Beauitful property off the beaten path in Tuscany. Remote location but access fo stores within and restaurants withing 30 mins driving. The scenery is something I'll never forget along with the amazing pool. If you want to stay in Tuscany and have a car to bop around in this is the place to stay. Also very easy drive to Florence for a day trip! Also tip the drive way looks like it is the entrance to a restaurant but you need to go straight through the parking lot and keep going up a gravel road it will be on your right up and hill.

A Tuscan Dream
This amazing apartment is on the second floor of a 500 year old farm house. The views are wonderful from every window . We arrived in a heat wave and spent our visit swimming and lounging by the pool which looks over the valley and Tuscan hills. The simple kitchen was well supplied with cook wear and dishes. And the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. Pier and his family were great hosts, responded quickly to all of our inquiries. The house is in a very rural location so it is quiet with the occasional car driving past on the gravel road and many bird songs. For travellers who need a little reprieve from intense tourism this is the perfect place! I look forward to returning again!

Beautiful hilltop serenity
I loved this 500 year old farmhouse with stone floors and beamed ceilings. I had the building all to myself. Pier-Francesco, Simonetta, and Hamid were welcoming and extremely helpful hosts. I was greeted with a bottle of Chianti and a bowl of fresh-picked cherries. Each room had its own modern bathroom. Anghiari is the nearest city about 10 kms away and you can find everything you need there. It's about a two hour drive to Pisa and one to Florence or the heart of the Chianti region where I went for some challenging but soul-enriching bike rides. There are gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside from where the house sits atop a hill. It was a bit of a challenge to find (the start of the actual road up to the house looks like the driveway of a restaurant so I drove past it twice) but well worth it. Grazie for the great experience.

Rund ums Haus kein ganz freier Auslauf, aber lange schöne Spaziergänge in alle Richtungen. Zahlreiche Aktivitäts- und Besichtigungsmöglichkeiten in der ganzen Region.

He responded immediately to any questions we had and dealt with them promptly. The pool was always well maintained and a real treat. The view and the landscape are outstanding. We really enjoyed the peace and seclusion. We also used our accommodation as a base for many excursions to Florence, Siena, Anghiari, Pienza and Perugia. We would love to come back!

Un excellent séjour
Nous avons passé 9 jours en août dans cette belle propriété, avec nos deux enfants : l'environnement est sublime, et la piscine avec une vue sur les montagnes est unique ! Elle a été très appréciée des enfants. La situation en hauteur assure une petite brise bienvenue, alors qu'il fait très chaud ailleurs. La maison, meublée sobrement, reste fraiche malgré la chaleur. Les matelas sont confortables. Il faut compter au moins 20 minutes pour accéder aux villages alentours. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par nos charmants hôtes et recommandons ce lieu pour des vacances au calme dans un environnement d'exception !

We verbleven met twee koppels in het mooie huis in Castellaccio en het verblijf oversteeg onze verwachtingen. We waren direct verliefd op het mooie oude huis dat een speciale sfeer uitstraalt. Je hebt er alle nodige comfort, je kan genieten van de mooie tuin en het heerlijke zwembad met een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht. Het is er echt heel stil, je hoort enkel de natuur. De omgeving is ook interessant: heel wat dorpen en stadjes in de buurt zijn de moeite waard! Ook leuke restaurantjes, zelfs heel dichtbij. Je krijgt alle nodige tips van de gastvrije eigenaars en hun sympathieke zoon Lorenzo. Deze plek is echt een aanrader!!

Un endroit superbe
Déjeuner en ayant une vue sur des dizaines de kilomètres tout en n'entendant que les oiseaux est un plaisir simple. Mais ô combien agréable. Rien que pour cela ce logement vaut largement la peine. C'est vrai qu'il y a des escaliers à monter et à descendre si on a oublié le sucre pour son café ou que la salle de séjour est un peu sombre à cause de l'architecte du XVIe siècle qui ne mettait pas autant de fenêtres que ceux d'aujourd'hui. Mais tout cela est compensé par la prévenance de Simonetta, Lorenzo et Pier Francesco qui résolvent les problèmes éventuels (une taque électrique qui rend l'âme, çà arrive..) aussi vite que possible. Merci à eux.

Mooi in stijl gerestaureerde vakantiewoning. Heerlijk koel op een heuvel gelegen, de woning is ruim en netjes, de keuken compleet en de bedden prima. Het uitzicht heel erg mooi, we hebben er op de verschillende momenten van de dag ontzettend van genoten. Vroeg in de ochtend trok de nevel uit het dal en wisselde het uitzicht per minuut. Daarna een duik in het superschone zwembad. De dorpen Anghiari en Arezzo zijn makkelijk te bereiken en zeer de moeite waard en er zijn mooie wandelingen te maken vanuit het huis. In de nacht rustig en pikdonker, heel wat vallende sterren gezien. Kortom we hebben genoten!

Toller Ort, und tolle Gastgeber
Wir hatten schon geahnt, dass wir das Haus ein wenig suchen müssen, haben es dann aber sehr schnell, dank einer guten Beschreibung unserer Vermieter gefunden. Ist es ein toller Ort, auf einer Anhöhe gelegen, gut durchlüftet auch an heißen Tagen. Die Besonderheit ist das gut sanierte alte Haus mit einem wunderbaren Pool samt umwerfenden Ausblick. Wir haben die Tage sehr genossen , da das Ferienhaus besonders günstig gelegen ist, kurze Wege nach Arezzo und anghiari, und auch ein guter Start nach Siena und San Marino waren möglich. Wir geben diesen kleinen Geheimtipp gern an unsere Freunde weiter. Die Vermieter machen tolle Marmelade, sehr zu empfehlen.

Entspannte Tage zwischen Arno und Tiber
Wir waren besonders begeistert von der Ruhe, der Natur und den weiten Blicken, die sich vom Haus und Garten bieten. Auch heiße Tage waren wegen des steten leichten oder stärkeren Windes gut auszuhalten. Für die Kinder war das bestens gepflegte Schwimmbad eine große Freude. Für Ausflüge in das nördliche Umbrien und die Toskana ist das Haus ein guter Ausgangspunkt, man muss nur wissen, dass in Richtung Sansepolcro (gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten ca. 15-20 Minuten) oder Arezzo jeweils eine "Passstrecke" zu fahren ist. Besonders reizvoll ist das näher gelegene Anghiari (Bäckerei, Metzgerei, kleine Lebensmittelläden, Restaurants). Die Vermieter, die im Nachbarhaus wohnen, sind sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und diskret. Das Olivenöl und die Konfitüren, die sie bzw. einer ihrer Söhne herstellen, sind sehr fein!

Ein Traum für Individualisten, Naturliebhaber und Ruhesuchende.
Wer die Einsamkeit und Ruhe sucht, dazu ein liebevoll gestaltetes, historisches Haus mit großem privaten Garten, oben auf dem Hügel mit einem fantastischen, weiten Blick über die Täler und Orte der Gegend, der wird sich sicher auch nicht daran stören, dass ein großer Pool Gelegenheit zur Erfrischung und zur Beschäftigung der Kinder bietet. Man kann derweil auf dem Stuhl im Garten Platz nehmen, einen Cafe trinken und den Blick in die Ferne schweifen lassen. Pier Francesco und seine gesamte Familie haben wirklich nichts dem Zufall überlassen, für die Gäste die schönsten Tage des Jahres unvergesslich zu machen, ohne dass irgendwas dabei aufdringlich oder unecht erscheint. Man merkt es überall: sie lieben ihre Gegend, ihre Häuser und sie lieben, was sie tun. Mit Freundlichkeit und klugem Blick stellen sich wunderbar auf ihre Gäste ein, niemals aufdringlich, aber immer offen. Man wird lange suchen müssen, etwas Vergleichbares zu finden - wir haben dergleichen jedenfalls noch nie erleben dürfen. Wir sind alle traurig nach Hause gefahren, aber wir haben eine wunderschöne Zeit in unseren Gedanken und auch unseren Herzen mitnehmen dürfen. Und dafür können wir nur sagen: Mille Grazie ! English: A dream for individualists, nature lovers and those looking for peace and quiet. If you are looking for solitude and tranquility, plus a lovingly designed, historic house with a large private garden, up on the hill with a fantastic, wide view over the valleys and villages in the area, you will certainly not mind the fact that a large pool offers the opportunity to refresh and keep the children busy. In the meantime, you can take a seat on the chair in the garden, have a coffee and let your gaze wander into the distance. Pier Francesco and his entire family really left nothing to chance to make the most beautiful days of the year unforgettable for the guests, without being intrusive or fake. You can tell it everywhere: they love their area, their houses and they love what they do. With friendliness and a wise eye, they prepare themselves wonderfully for their guests, never intrusive, but always open. It will take a long time to find something comparable - at least we have never seen anything like it. We all went home sad, but we were able to take a wonderful time with us in our minds and also in our hearts. And for that we can only say: Mille Grazie!
