We stayed here for two weeks , last week in June First week in July , I have to say this house is absolutely beautiful , decorated very nicely , has everything you could want for a large group! Pool and gardens are very well maintained and spotless clean , The host Stefano was fantastic to deal with , he even dropped us down breakfast on our first morning, we couldn’t have asked for more ! We had one minor issue which was resolved within 20 minutes of us calling him ! Thankyou Stefano.

Me and my family had the best vacation in Isolina´s villa Le Giare. The villa is superb, the setting is beautiful with views down into the valley up to Cortona. We had such a wonderful week celebrating a birthday in the family. The villa was clean, beautifully furnished, with a well equipped kitchen and a fabulous apartments. The pool and outdoor sitting and dining areas are outstanding. From the beginning, Isolina was super helpful and friendly. Highly recommended!

Lovely, peaceful location. Off the beaten track but not too far to drive to large towns for shopping etc. Very clean and well maintained. Good base for all the touristy bits of Tuscany but the villa itself doesn't feel at all touristy

Een heerlijk huis met prachtige tuin en zwembad. Tuin en zwembad werden elke dag, vroeg in de ochtend, onderhouden. Alleen vervelend dat de airco’s beide kapot bleken te zijn bij aankomst en tijdens verblijf niet gerepareerd konden worden. Dat was een tegenvaller gezien de tropische temperaturen (30+). Daarnaast overlast gehad van werkzaamheden aan de weg langszij het huis.

We really liked the location! The house is old yet modern and the pool was lovely. The cottage is situated on top of a rather steep rise and the road can be quite challenging at times. You might want to take this into consideration when you rent your car. The renter is actually the second floor of a house where also the landlords live. This was no problem, at all, but I had not noticed this piece of information in the advert so it came as a bit of a surprise to us. Please also note the nasty small black bugs that were a bit of a nuisance.
[Counter comment from the owners] "We are sorry to read that the guests may have experienced some difficulty with the access road. We are privileged to own a house on top of a hill, therefore with spectacular views all around. The road is a dirt road, and we would not be allowed to asphalt it as we are in a zone "Unesco World Heritage". During the stay of our guests, a very strong storm slightly damaged the road, but regular attention is given to it so that any type of car could use it without problem (although we would not recommend it for a very low body sport coupé).
Indeed we live on the ground floor, whilst the first floor is absolutely independent. We feel that our presence is essential as we wish to give our guests a personalised welcome upon arrival, and be always available if they need any assistance; furthermore, the pool is a natural one, i.e. which works without any added chlorine (only liquid oxygen) : it is more delicate to run, and therefore requires our daily supervision. Although always available, we tend to be as discreet as possible.
Finally, a large part of the Val d'Orcia experiences this year an invasion of cockroaches which live in the woods or fields, but some try to enter houses : everyday, we spay a costly product to reduce the nuisance."
