What a wonderful location , peaceful and relaxing Fabio and Loretta were amazing hosts we felt like family . They were available at all times to help us navigate our needs. Their recommendations were exactly what we wanted , fabulous dinners and wine . Their home was inviting well stocked and the views were beautiful. We took a stroll through the neighborhood that left us feeling like we had stepped into a fairy tale. It met our expectations and more ! Can not wait to visit again ! Thank you for your “friendship and perfect hospitality “

Incredible location with even sweeter hosts. Our only regret was we didn't stay longer!
Fabio and Loretta were incredible guests and went above and beyond to welcome us and make us feel at home. Their space has a lot of room and can definitely make an extended stay of it. The yard and amenities were fantastic and the location is great for day trips to wine country in Tuscany. I actually wish we had more time in the nearby city center of Arezzo because it was great. Overall, we will absolutely recommend this stay and would love to return and stay again! Thank you both so much for your hospitality!

Peaceful Retreat
Staying here has been the highlight of our trip! We loved getting away from the busy tourist areas and seeing smaller towns. Our hosts, Loretta and Fabio, went above and beyond to make our stay incredible from the practical-helping navigate the washing machine-to the extraordinary-digging up ta truffle in their yard for us and cooking us pizza in their wood burning pizza oven! And we loved their dog, Puccio!!! I highly recommend staying here!! We’d love to come back!!!

Siamo stati ospiti di Loretta e Fabio per 2 settimane a fine settembre 2024 con due persone e un cane. L'alloggio era bellissimo ed esattamente come nelle foto, con molto spazio aggiuntivo (ad esempio il giardino d'inverno). La grande proprietà recintata con piscina era a nostra disposizione solo ed era l'ideale per il nostro cagnolino. Non era possibile scappare. Dato che il tempo ha collaborato, abbiamo potuto fare ampio uso della grande piscina. Attrazioni come Arezzo, Firenze, Siena erano facilmente raggiungibili in auto. Loretta e Fabio erano sempre disponibili a dare consigli e supporto. Il momento clou è stato l'invito ad una serata barbecue toscana con Loretta e Fabio. Ci siamo sentiti molto a nostro agio e prenoteremmo questo alloggio in qualsiasi momento se visitassimo nuovamente la Toscana. È un peccato che sia finito così in fretta.

wunderbarer, erholsamer Urlaub ganz in de Nähe von Arezzo
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche auf diesem großzügigen Anwesen. Die Wohnung liegt in einem seperaten Teil das alten Bauernhauses und ist sehr geräumig und mit allem eingerichtet, was man braucht. Für unseren 14 jährigen Sohn waren das vorhandene WLAN und der riesige Pool DAS highlight. Loretta und Fabio, die Gastgeber haben uns so herzlich aufgenommen, dass wir uns sofort wohlfühlten und es uns schwerfiel wieder abzureisen. Mit Rat und Tat standen sie uns zur Seite. Wir danken sehr, sehr für einen wunderschönen, fröhlichen Abend mit Euch beiden und Fabios köstlicher Pizza aus dem hauseigenen Holzofen. Danke, dass Ihr mein grauenhaftes rudimentäres Italienisch ertragen habt...:-)

Een paradijsje in Toscane
Wat een heerlijke plek om te verblijven en om Toscane te ontdekken. Op 10 minuten van het centrum van Arezzo en op een uurtje rijden van Siena. Het huis voldeed aan alle verwachtingen en de foto's op de site laten een werkelijk beeld zien van het huis en de tuin. De eigenaren zijn geweldig aardig en behulpzaam. Hun ontvangst was een heerlijk welkom in Italië. Alles is in het huis aanwezig, wifi ok. Het ruime tweepersoons bed is van goede kwaliteit en heel fijn dat er op de bovenverdieping ook een toilet is (badkamer met toilet is beneden). De trap vanuit de woonkamer naar boven is wat smal maar de slaapkamer is ook prima bereikbaar via de buitentrap. En de tuin met zwembad ... zo mooi! Alles maakt dat dit een geweldig adres is voor een stel dat en van uitstapjes en van rust houdt. De authentieke Italiaanse sfeer van de plek met de vriendschap van Loretta en Fabio maakten het voor ons een onvergetelijke week. Onze hond heeft het er ook zo fijn gehad (grote omheinde tuin) en heeft er een vakantie hondenvriendje aan overgehouden. Wij komen zeker terug!

Traumhafter Urlaub in schöner Umgebung
Wir hatten eine wunderbare Urlaubswoche in einem sehr schönen Ferienhaus mit einem großzügig und wunderschön angelegten Garten und einem großartigen Pool, den wir ausgiebig genutzt haben. Alles war sehr sauber, liebevoll eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Durch die freundliche, herzliche und zugewandte Art von Loretta und Fabio haben wir uns von Anfang an sehr wohl gefühlt und konnten unseren Aufenthalt in vollen Zügen genießen. Wir erhielten von beiden auch sehr gute Tipps für Ausflüge in der näheren Umgebung, die wir sehr gerne in Anspruch genommen haben und die uns die Toskana näher gebracht haben. Wir danken Loretta und Fabio ganz herzlich für einen unvergesslichen Aufenthalt in ihrem schönen Ferienhaus in der Toskana.

Ein perfekter Urlaub
Wir waren mit unserer Familie (Kinder 10 und 15 Jahre) 11 Tage in diesem tollen Ferienhaus. Das Anwesen und der Pool sind riesig und man hat absolute Ruhe in dieser idyllischen Lage. Das Haus ist ein wunderschönes typisch toskanisches Haus mit tollem Ambiente. Das Haus hat 2 Etagen, ein Doppelbett und eine Schlafcouch. Die Einrichtung ist sehr liebevoll. Die Gastgeber sind unfassbar herzlich und liebevolle Menschen, die uns den Aufenthalt unvergesslich gemacht haben.

Bellissimo / Wunderschön
Loretta und Fabio sind die perfekten Gastgeber. Diskret im Hintergrund und immer vor Ort wenn man Ihre Unterstützung oder Ratschläge benötigt. Im Haushalt gibt es alles was man braucht. Alles ist sehr sauber und in einem brauchbaren, neuwertigen Zustand. Der riesige Aussenbereich sowie der grosse Pool standen uns zur alleinigen Nutzung zur Verfügung. Es ist eine Bereicherung zwei so liebevolle Gastgeber kennen lernen zu dürfen. Wir haben Sie fest in unsere Herzen geschlossen und kommen bestimmt wieder zurück. Liebe Grüsse an Loretta, Fabio (und Puccio den Freund unseres Pudels Lenny) Marlies und Thomas

So schön!!
Unser Aufenthalt war von Anfang bis Ende wunderbar. Wir haben die Zeit in Arezzo wirklich genossen und möchten uns hier nochmals bei unseren Gastgebern Loretta und Fabio von Herzen bedanken. Die Lage des Hauses ist sehr gut. Man kann von dort aus in angemessenen Zeiten schöne Ausflugsziele erreichen. Hinweise und Tipps dazu haben wir von Loretta bekommen. Das Haus selbst ist schön und zweckmäßig eingerichtet, die Betten (wichtig!) bequem. Wohn- und Schlafzimmer haben eine Klimaanlage für den Fall der Fälle. Auch wenn ich mich als ungeübte Pizzabäckerin geoutet habe, war der Abend mit den Gastgebern sehr schön und lustig. Und wer weiß: Vielleicht klappt es ja mit ein wenig Übung doch nochmal mit dem richtigen Pizzateig :-)) Also zusammenfassend kann ich sagen: Ich vermisse jetzt schon unsere morgendliche Tasse "Cafè tedesco) und wir empfehlen dieses Ferienhaus uneingeschränkt. Vielen Dank an Loretta und Fabio von Sylvia und Jürgen

Ein kleines Paradies zum Entspannen
Pool, kleine Terrasse, Kickertisch, Tischtennis, ein fester Grill und ein riesen Garten laden zum Entspannen ein. Die Gastgeber-Fabio und Loretta sind total toll und lieb. Wir haben uns beim gemeinsamen essen angefreundet. Ergo: Das tolle Domizil ist sehr zu empfehlen und gerade für Hundebesitzer super, weil es komplett umzäunt ist. Der kleine Puccio, der Hund von Loretta und Fabio ist auch lieb und spielt gerne. Wir sagen: 1+ mit Sternchen

Siamo arrivati al casale del riccio il 29 dicembre,Loretta e Fabio ci hanno accolto come se già ci conoscessimo.Ci hanno fatto trovare della buona frutta,uno spumante in frigo,una casa calda sotto tutti gli aspetti.Un bel piatto di ceci caldi e per il 31ci hanno consegnato dei dolcetti.Noi viaggiamo molto,ma non abbiamo mai ricevuto tutte queste attenzioni. Il casale immerso nella tranquillità si trova a 5 minuti dal centro di Arezzo ed è dotato di ogni comfort,non poteva essere altrimenti,visto la cordialità e l'ospitalita'dei proprietari.Ce ne siamo andati a malincuore ma torneremo sicuramente,magari con la bella stagione,per goderci anche la piscina e la parte esterna che è meravigliosa.Grazie ancora Fabio e Loretta,a presto.
