Such a beautiful and secluded property in the Tuscan hills. Very relaxing stay. Great food. Wonderful pool. The perfect place to relax and wide down at the end of our trip.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The staff are fantastic, so attentive and friendly. The breakfasts are amazing and I am sure the restaurant is in the evening, although we didn't have the chance to eat there.
The pool and grounds are so well kept. There is a little bar next to the pool, and drinks and snacks are served all day.
We will definitely be back.
Thank you for a lovely couple of days.

This property was the best rental we had on our two-week European vacation. It met our every need. We stayed in Munich, Florence, here (near Volterra), and in Rome. This was our favorite rental.
We rented a two-bedroom suite, with private bath, kitchen, dining area, and living area. It also had a beautiful covered terrace to enjoy wine on while we looked out over the Tuscan hills. If you are looking for Tuscany, it’s right here.
It’s a 10-minute drive to Volterra, where you can easily find public parking and walk into the city center for a day filled with great food, history, and stunning Tuscany views from the top of the city. In addition, there are many wineries to visit nearby.
We parked in a public lot at the northern side of the city (Volterra), literally steps from the city center area. I used the map app on my iPhone and searched parking. Very easy in and out if your are intimidated by driving there. Don’t let that scare you. Some roads can get a bit narrow, but it’s very do-able. There are many great locations for a glass of wine, some with postcard views of the Tuscan hills. Just beautiful and what you picture in your mind when you think of Tuscany.
However, the number one item that surpassed our expectations was the host, Silvia. She went above and beyond to help us through a very difficult situation when someone in our group fell Ill.
Silvia knew we had a rough first night and as a generous gesture, she arranged for a morning bread and sweets delivery for us - I mean, how entirely sweet that was! She checked in on us often to see how the situation progressed.
Offering garden views, Villa Sant Anna in Sassetta provides accommodations, a garden, and a shared lounge. There's a private entrance at the country house for the convenience of those who stay.

Beautiful property. Lake was clean and great for a swim to cool off from the summer heat. Andrea was a friendly and welcoming host. Breakfast had a big variety and was very tasty.
The top choice for people wanting to get away from noise and fast-paced city life. Country houses are private homes located in the peaceful countryside, with communal facilities and meals available. Activities to unwind can be included too, like trekking, bird watching, and cycling.
It is spacious and clean. The kitchen has all the necessary utensils and kitchenware. Through a short corridor outside the apartment, there is a garden area designated for our use and also easy access to a washing machine and dryer. The place is completely quiet.
We loved the way the place was decorated. Room had all the things you need for proper relaxation. The bathroom was at SPA level. Huge shower with multiple options. The whole place was clean and quiet. Highly recommended!
Awesome place in the quiet area just outside of the small town. We, including our dog, loved it.
Major attractions aren't that close, but you can definitely find many local ones nearby, including good restaurants and historical places, you just need to be a little curious.
Our stay in Le Casette was wonderful! The host is so kind and lovely, she also gives the best hints for the region.
We can highly recommend this place if you want to have a quiet and comfortable accommodation between olive trees and stunning nature.
Quiet park campsite, excellent to relax. 2 great swimming pools with plenty of beds / umbrellas. Friendly staff in the shop (very nice espresso!) and restaurant (pleasantly priced, except for soft drinks). The 5-p bungalow is sufficiently equipped. Not luxurious, but fits for 9 day stay.
