Villa Volpaia

From K.J. - UK - in 2017-08-05 The villa is imaculate and has every comfort. The location is fabulous with just a short stroll to the square where there are three wonderful places to eat and drink. We were on a special family holiday and this was enhanced by the housekeeper-Donita who is an absolute treasure. She couldn't have been more helpful and her cooking is Devine. Long to return as do all the family ranging in ages from 7 to 60! From S.I. - USA - in 2017-05-27 Beautiful setting for the villa, and quiet hilltop enclave. From M.M. - USA - in 2016-09-16 The wonderful experience at Volpaia sets the standard for all Vacation in Tuscany. The gated villa is well appointed with a large kitchen and homey indoor and outdoor spaces. There were 10 of us in our party, and the lovely bedrooms and ensuite baths were very quiet and private. The housekeeper, Donika , was friendly and an excellent ambassador for Volpaia and Tuscany. We opted to have Donika prepare a dinner which we highly recommend. The locally sourced chicken, vegetables, etc. were all hand made and delicious. Just like our Grandmother used to make. The town has 3 restaurants, a winery & olive oil press, and a local honey shop! If you aren't staying in Volpaia, it's a short drive from Radda and well worth stopping for a wine tasting or a great meal with Paola at Bar Ucci. We look forward to returning to Volpaia! From L.H. - USA - in 2016-09-10 This rustic retreat offered a delightful Under the Tuscan Sun experience! Donika, the housekeeper, gave us a warm welcome and her care made us feel like a part of the family. Add the amazing view and the nearby restaurants and this was a vacation that we'll always treasure. From M.H. - USA - in 2016-09-10 “We held a family reunion with 8 adults and 2 children in this town of Volpaia that was everything one would hope for a memorable Italian vacation. The Villa is a lovely country house, very private but steps away from the center of the lovely hamlet of Volpaia. There are 3 excellent restaurants within a very short walking distance from the villa. The town centers around organic wine making and produces some of the most delicious chianti in the area. Our Villa came with daily housekeeping services provided by one of the best features of our stay, Donnika. She helped us with many aspects of our stay and made recommendations for some easy day trips in the area. We exercised the option of hiring her to cook and had one of our most memorable and delicious meals of the trip. From the zucchini squash blossoms, roast chicken, her chocolate tort, Volpaia Chianti then add one of the most beautiful views of the region, we felt lucky to have selected this location for our family.” From E.R. - USA - in 2016-06-04 We had a great stay at Volpaia. Everyone was wonderful and helpful to make sure our needs were met.

Thoroughly recommend this house to anyone. This is a stunning villa in an amazing location in the heart of Tuscany at the borders of Siena and Firenze's province. People in the little village of Volpaia are lovely there are three amazing restaurants at walking distance from the house and stunning places all around. It was 11 of us including two children, the house is big enough to have us all without disturbing each other, we had really great lovely time.

We are back from a superb two weeks in one of the most beautiful regions ever - Chianti. The house was terrific and everyone of our group had a wonderful time. We had not expected quite so much climbing, but quickly became accustomed to the hills and after a day or two found out legs and began to enjoy the ups as well as the exciting downs. A wonderful cycling venue.. We learned a lot about the hamlet and winery from Alecia and actually met the owner. That Volpaia is a destination of choice for lunch was news to us but very understandable. I would like to bring to your attention the extraordinary contribution to our holiday by Donika Jahaj. We had no idea what a wonderful cook she was and when we discovered what a jewel we had we ended up having her cook five delicious meals for us. She went above and beyond all expectations and we all agreed that truly home cooked Tuscan meals were one of the high lights of our trip. (...)
