The property was beautiful and very clean. We stayed at the villa for 6 days and were very pleased. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner Alesandro and several occasions. Very nice and easy to work with. He makes his own wine at the villa but also is an artist making jewelry, wine pourers, napkins rings.... We also met his mother who is a pleasure. The villa is in a good location. Quiet but close enough to be able to get out and eat and see things without too much of a drive. I would highly recommend this villa.

Much of what this villa offered met expectations and it was very clean. The owner, Alessandro, is a charming host and was on hand to deal with any issues/queries. However for the price we paid, I was somewhat disappointed with some of the kitchen equipment which was old, incomplete, missing and generally tired e.g. missing toaster, unsafe coffee pot, no grater, exhausted frying pans etc. The bedrooms were all good but attention was needed in at least one shower where the shower head fixing was broken and therefore didn't function. There was insufficient information for the guests regarding local facilities and no guestbook to let everyone share useful facts and info about the house and trips/restuarants etc. There is a walking distanced Michelin rated restaurant just down the road (1000 metres); excellent delivery pizza place that you should be aware provides "maxi" pizzas which are huge (feeds a family of 4). The pool is excellent and overall we very much enjoyed the experience but......small things matter and are very frustrating!!

Review for stay from 03 August 2024 to 17 August 2024
Beautiful old house with good room layout for many people, pool table and chess room complete the charm - minor renovations would make it perfect however the house and the adjacent vineyard did not look as well maintained as in the pictures. Beds, pillows and bed linen basic but sufficient. Villa cleanliness perfect, owner very kind and helpful. Pool area perfect. No air conditioning, which is not a problem, but at high temperatures at night where you have to leave the windows open, mosquito protection is essential, but unfortunately there is no such thing anywhere. Subbiano is not a nice place, 20 minutes by car to get to Arezzo, you need definitely a car.

Vielen Dank lieber Alexandro für die freundliche Aufnahme in deinem Haus. Wir haben uns sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt. Deine Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundschaft hat gepasst zu diesem wunderschönen Fleckchen Erde. Das Haus ist schöner als auf den Bildern, super sauber, Hunde und Kinder sind herzlich willkommen und der Pool mit dem Sprungbrett hat nicht nur die Kinder erfreut. Ankommen und wohlfühlen ???? GRAZIE, DANKE, THANKS

Wunderschöne Villa mit erfrischendem Pool in Alleinlage. Umgeben von Weinreben, Oliven- und Feigenbäumen konnten wir unseren Toskana Urlaub hier wunderbar genießen. Der Besitzer war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Villa war sehr sauber, der Außenbereich gepflegt und schön angelegt. Jedes Zimmer hatte sein eigenes Bad. Die Küche war super ausgestattet. Einen mit Holz befeuerbaren Steinofen benutzten wir mehrmals, ein normaler Grill ist aber auch vorhanden. Alles in allem ein Ort an den wir gerne nochmals zurück kehren würden!

Fräscht och välstädat när vi kom. Lättillgängligt från flygplatsen i Florens med ca 1,5 timmes resa med bil. Bra bemötande. Möjlighet att röra sig i trädgården och också att ta promenader i omgivningen.

Overall very good. The communication with Posarellivillas was ok and we got pretty quick responses to our answers we had prior to booking. The villa Lo Scoiattolo was excellent and everything we dreamed of. Alessandro the owner was very helpful with all questions we had.

Review for stay from 27 April 2019 to 04 May 2019
Lo Scoittolo (also known as La Vigna) was everything we hoped for. It is so beautiful. Alessandro is a wonderful host. We were four couples who had more space than we needed. The villa is ideally located for many great day trips. Absolutely clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and aesthetically pleasing. We opted for Alessandro's mother to cook a dinner for us one night. It was held in the taverna in the basement of the villa, with a roaring fire. It was a little pricey at 50 euro per person, but that included unlimited wine and 3 courses. We thoroughly enjoyed it and discovered that Alessandro is not only a wine maker but a metal artisan. Just a few things that potential renters might want to know: if you need heat, it will be 40 euro per day. Apparently, it's not possible to calculate the actual usage exactly, so this is what Alessandro charges. It can be a little unclear about what the charges might be. But we felt Alessandro was being fair and that given the very reasonable price of the villa in low season, it was okay. The wifi was spotty. We had none the first two days, which we understood was a problem with the local network. But even when it was working it appeared that there was a limitation to the number of devices that could be on a once. (Some of us got connected and others could not) Overall, this place was wonderful and I would rent it again.

Fantastic Italian Villa!!
We stayed in Alessandro's beautiful Villa in late October. We had the place to ourselves and there was plenty of room. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom which was very convenient for our group. The location is set back from the road on top of a small hill so it is very private. The side patio is ideal for sitting in the morning or evening to enjoy some breakfast or wine and cheese. The location is great as it is about a 3 minute drive to the small town of Subbiano with a couple great restaurants. We also did day trips to Florence, Siena, and Assisi. The Villa is about 15-20 minutes drive from the Arezzo train station. Driving to Siena and Assisi was just over an hour. The only misunderstanding we had was we thought it cost 14 euros per day to turn the heat on, but it was 40 euros. Not a big deal, but the heat was not pumping out of the radiator. Alessandro was very kind and provided us a lovely bottle of wine from his vineyard that is on the property. We stopped at a couple very nice wineries that are about a 15 minutes drive from the Villa. I would highly recommend the Villa for a group of people or a family!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Perfect for our Yoga/Pilates retreat and day trips to Siena, Florence and Arezzo! Highly recommend, the owners have had this vineyard in their family for 4 generations and take great care and pride of their family estate. The perfect getaway I would go again!

Villa Lo Scoiattolo was perfect! The home and property was everything promised and accommodations were great for our family and friends. Alessandro (owner) was helpful and welcoming. He worked on property site daily and so he was always accessible to us. I would recommend this property for the quality of the home and location. It should be noted that Subbiano is not a tourist area and therefore most businesses do not speak English. However the people are very friendly and helpful. Great property!

Ganz tolles Haus. Wir haben gegrillt und Pizza gemacht und eigentlich nur draussen gelebt. Wir kommen bestimmt mal im Winter um den Kamin zu erleben! Sehr gut war auch die Zugverbindung von Arezzo aus. So kann man ohne Parkprobleme nach Florenz und Siena fahren. Auch der Trasimeno See ist einen Ausflug wert, denn dort gibt es Wassersportmòglichleiten.
