General Property Comments
Palazzo a Greve is a Tuscan dream! Situated in a vineyard, with beautiful amenities, offering serenity (no road noise) and a sense of security. It was a little hard to find initially, but was easy to access and is in easy reach of day-trip destinations. Pienza is one of my favorites. We were there in October and watched as the trees and vines turned yellow and then red. Wish I was a painter.
Very nice accommodation with great pool area and close to restaurants and cafes. Very good wine tasting venue close by. Access to accommodation via market and tight archway makes getting there difficult, especially as street is often barricaded when market is on, and market is the only access. Sometimes it is barricaded even if the market is not on, and it is worth knowing that in this case you should just move the barricades and drive through!
The villa was situated on a side street off the main piazza, which meant that we had quiet privacy *and* we could quickly enjoy the convenience of a fresh cup of coffee, the tourist information office, phones, restaurants, and enotecas. Our apartment was very clean and well-stocked. It was quite comfortable, and the owner and the on-site employees were flexible and helpful. For example, our flight was very late and the airline lost our luggage. The villa employee ensured that we could arrive at 3 a.m. and received the luggage for us during the day so that we could explore the countryside. We will definitely return!
This was a perfect Tuscan experience! Palazzo a Greve was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, silverware, glasses ect.. It was a very short walk to the piazza, restaurants, wine tasting, cafes, stores, prociutto, bread and gelato! It was a short drive to many small towns and beautiful views. It was also was about a half an hour drive to Florence or Siena, 3 hours to Milan and 2 1/2 hour drive to Rome...a perfect location! We were ten people and had three rooms, all of us were very happy.
