General Property Comments
From the moment the owners greet you to the time they wave goodbye, Limoni
villa is a rare treat. Inside is charming, spacious and very comfortable.Outside is serene and welcoming, with trees shading the walk to the barbecue as you listen to the cuckoos and doves. The view of Montepulciano from the outdoor dining table and poolside is lovely. The highlight of the day, though, is at the end, when you open a bottle of wine from the area and sit back as the sun sets behind the hills. Top that with an incredible
dinner cooked for you by the owners, and you are truly experiencing a
little slice of paradise.
A wonderful villa in a stunning location -the terrace overlooks vineyards,
olive groves, sunflowers and the hilltop town of Montepulciano -truly breathtaking! The pool is a good size and a Godsend in the heat! Jacopo,our host was charming and extremely helpful. We highly recommend the meals his mother cooks - pay for two and it becomes an excellent deal as you get a free 3 course pasta party - delicious! We were close to most of the important sites in Tuscany. The view from the terrace is stunning - vineyards, olive groves, sunflowers and Montepulciano in the distance. Truly breathtaking.
This was a fantastic holiday; the property is stuated on a hillside, surrounded by vinyards, overlooking fields of sunflowers with stunning views from the terrace - what more could you ask for? The owners will cook a meal for you and serve it on your terrace as the sun sets. We had three meals of typical tuscan food (one of them provided free of charge) the setting was perfect and the food was excellent.
This is the nicest property we have ever rented. Great location! You can get to most places in Tuscany and Umbria within one hour. Owners are charming and very helpful. Recommend having the owners make dinner and provide wine - You'll love it! Near all major tourist sites in Tuscany and Umbria. Has an incredible view over the Valley of the Chiana and up to Montepulciano.
Pictures on web site do not do justice to this property. Sit and watch the sun go down with a bottle of the owners red wine produced from their own grapes.
Beautiful villa representing old world charm. Fantastic location with a view of Cortona from the back and Montepulciano from the front. The landscaping is incredulous and the location in the Chiana valley is out of a storybook. Full range of all utensils/pans/pots/glasses. There was even a nice collection of spices, coffee and sugar available! I highly recommend having the owner prepare some meals for you. They were fantastic 4 course meals. We did this three nights and they were the best meals we ate the entire trip!
