"A fantastic apartment that is a real treasure! We were made very welcome by Roz and Terry who were neighbourly but unobtrusive. They were a great help with train times and suggestions for day trips etc. The locality is beautiful with some fab places for days out; Florence, Assissi and Siena being just a few of the easy to reach places we enjoyed visiting, as well as some of the smaller 'off-the-beaten-track' villages that are quite spectacular too. Highly recommended overall - we'll definately be paying another visit asap!" Lesley from Bridgend (26/08/2007).
"A fantastic hideaway that is surrounded in a beautiful setting. It is exactly like how I imagined Tuscany to be. Roz and Terry the owners are really nice people and made us very welcome. It is a great base for travelling as well to places like Assisi, Siena, Florence etc. The location is set in a peaceful area and if you want to escape the rat race this is the place to come. The accomodation is finished to a very high standard and to be honest there is nothing I can say that that is negative about it! A real gem that I will revisit at some point in the near future." Martin from Howwood, Scotland (03/08/2007).
"We had a lovely 10 days in early April. The apartment seems perfect for a couple or, like us, a couple with an infant (8-months). We arrived late in the evening and were welcomed by the owners who had heated the fire place for us. Nice gesture with the food basket and box of toys for our son. The house was clean and fresh and the view and surrounding nature was wonderful. We found it a great place from which to visit the surrounding villages and walk small parts of the many tracks. Also and perhaps most importantly, it is a nice place to just relax in the garden with a book." Marijke from Raelingen, Norway (17/07/2007).
"Very well appointed property with added extras that make it very comfortable. Owners are on hand just next door which is very reassuring. We found the grocery pack very useful as we arrived on a Sunday when the supermarkets were closed." Janet from Cottingham (02/07/2007).
"On arrival at Cresta Villa we were greeted by our host & hotess. We were very impressed with the complimentary wine and food, and found that every detail had been completed to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. We were able to take daily excursions and come back to enjoy the peace and the sound of the occasional cowbell in the distance, and would definately recommend Cresta Villa,for a relaxing holiday." Valerie from Auckland, New Zealand (30/06/2007).
"The villa was spotless, and included everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owners were welcoming and friendly, and we found the location an excellent base for exploring the surrounding Tuscan countryside." Ruth from Nottingham (11/05/2007).
"A beautiful appartment in the wonderful Tuscan hills, a brillant place to get away as it's very peaceful. The appartment is very well presented and with all the equipment and utensils, it feels like a home fron home. The owners were fantastic, very friendly and welcoming. They were helpful and knowledgable, always on hand but not intrusive. The information folder provided contained everything you needed to make the most of the outstanding surroundings. It gave extensive details/maps of walks in the area and all the local attractions and must see towns. Upon arrival we found a food welcome pack, which after a long journey helped us settle in quickly, this included some wonderful homemade jam and a much needed bottle of red wine! However, this appartment should come with a strong warning.....The bed is so comfortable you could sleep for days!! Fantastic value for money, will be reccomending to family and friends, would love to return and explore some more." Donna from Cirencester (04/03/2007).
"The apartment was exactly as described, with many homely touches added too. The owners were most helpful and even asked if we needed extra wood for the fire as the mid October evenings were getting cool. The green file was very useful with plenty of local maps which are hard to obtain in the UK (we tried!). The welcome pack was very generous and much appreciated. The location was extremely rural and peaceful making it ideal for a get-away-from-it-all holiday. We may well go back next year." Alex & Mike from Kent (01/11/2006).
"On our arrival the first surprise was a very comprehensive food pack as we arrived late on a Sunday. The apartment itself was exaxctly as desribed and the quality of all the fittings to a very good standard. The extent of detail in providing all the cutlery, crockery, linen cooking facilities was to a standard that meant you were short of nothing. The owners were very helpful and supportive without being in any way intrusive. The guide books and many maps provided were excellent as was the radio and the DVD player, including the list of films available to borrow. The area itself is very rural and has excellent views. The local footpath network is extensive and some very dramatic views are less than 20 minutes walk away. Small villages and hamlets are many and provide the opportunity to exlpore real rural Tuscan life. An excellent place to stay and visit the local national park, Tuscany generally and Umbria. We would have no reservations in recomending this as a place to stay." Keith & Joy from Stanford (26/09/2006).
"Lovely friendly owners set everything up for us upon arrival, including stocking the fridge with breakfast items and sorting out the additional cot we required. Place itself was homey and comfortable. We were left to enjoy the cottage and no fuss was ever made about any of the additional things we requested. Would recommend as great value for money for a couple or small family." Tom from Cornwall (31/07/2006). |
