Guest Reviews for Villa Ginestra
Casa molto molto molto carina anche se sarebbe stato utile un bagno al piano terra. Per il resto, per evitare di creare problemi ai proprietari che sono comunque gentili e disponibili, mi astengo dall'elencare i punti negativi della nostra esperienza. Diciamo solo che abbiamo trovato qualche difficoltà perché non siamo abituati alla vita in una campagna collinare.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Very very very nice house although a bathroom on the ground floor would have been useful. For the rest, to avoid creating problems for the owners who are in any case kind and helpful, I will refrain from listing the negative points of our experience. Let's just say that we found some difficulties because we are not used to life in the hilly countryside.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
Such a nice house, everything was good, the view was more than beautiful and we loved the evenings sitting outside and watching the sunset. The pool was also very nice with good beds and soft cushions which made it very comfortable. If you are looking for a remote place in the Tuscan hills this is the perfect place.

This is a beautiful villa, impeccably cared for in the most stunning location. Every picture is true to life! We were 2 couples staying for the week. We loved the restaurants on the hillside as well as Cortona. A completely enjoyable stay and the owner was always available for recommendations! Lovely!

Very clean great owners had a very well stocked kitchen no air conditioning but it cooled way down at night super comfortable. 30 minutes from Cortona but we still loved it. Loved the restaurant on site you need reseverations.
Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
The villa was very nice, clean, and comfortable. The proximity to Cortona was a bit farther than expected. It's a good 15 minutes drive into town, I was under the impression that it was about a 15 minute walk into town. Other than that, it was a wonderful retreat. We enjoyed our stay immensely. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking.

Beautiful clean and well appointed house and grounds, with a stunning pool, clean although a little cool by the end of the season...great views. My only suggestion would be to provide visitors with an information folder....where to find the Cortona tourist Information centre (we still didn't find it),what's on this month, where to eat nearby and.....if you wish to have dinner and wine in Cortona at night, how to access return transport, e.g taxi....also consolidating the Oven, Washing Machine, TV etc instructions into a folder.
