We were a bit nervous on our drive to the house…this being our first time driving in the Italian countryside, the narrow, winding roads, and rather inconspicuous signage had us a bit on edge. But as we neared the house, we spotted it in the distance. It was pretty as a picture! We made our way down the gravel road between vineyards and olive groves, and arrived at the house. Once inside, we were charmed by everything: The kitchen fireplace, the enormous patio overlooking the countryside, the modern conveniences tucked into the rustic, homey environment. After a quick run to the adorable “mini market” back up the road, we were ready to settle in. Our dear friends from Paris had rented the house across the courtyard. We all met outside for a glass of the “house wine” – literally, the wine made in the ground floor of Casa Rosa – and some wonderful Italian food. It was just like the movies! The owners were delightful – they had just completed their harvest, and were literally making their wine during our stay. They invited us into their winery to sample some “fresh” wine and watch them stomping grapes – explaining that they were using the “must” to make grappa. Throughout our stay we enjoyed Tuscany from our comfortable home base of Casa Rosa. We had fabulous meals, enjoyed fantastic sights, and took away amazing memories. Thank you for making our trip to Tuscany an experience of a lifetime.

Our stay in Casa Rossa more than exceeded our expectations! Francesco and his parents were very hospitable and helpful during our one week stay in Tuscany. The house was very well furnished, comfortable, and serene Location was great as well. Not too far from Siena and Florence. We loved the gorgeous view of the rolling hills in the early morning and evening from our large patio! We were very sad to leave...We hope to definitely to return again.

Thank you so much for allowing us to share a piece of your paradise here at Casa Rossa. The Casa is beautiful and the view from the terrace will be etched on my mind for eternity. My fondest memories are of the warm and friendly people here. Special thanks for the wine and the lovely torta on our last day. They were both delicious! Blessings to you all! We had a wonderful time at Casa Rossa and the Chianti area. My favorite time was to sit on the patio with a glass of Chianti and enjoy the beautiful views. Thanks and salute!
