Our delightful Tuscany Stay at Pelago La Casina
My husband and I traveled to Italy to experience the beautiful Italian culture and countryside! Here at ‘La Casina’ we were able to experience Tuscany! The spring weather was perfect too! This was sadly our final week in Italy but it was one of the best weeks! We loved ‘La Casina’ which was charming and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable providing us with a very restful sleep after full days of exploring! The kitchen was perfectly equipped with everything we needed for our morning coffees, fruit plates (the oranges and strawberries were in season and so sweet) and some evening meals my husband cheffed up which we often ate outside on the patio surrounded by Gianna’s beautiful roses and flowers! The location was perfect with only a few minutes by car from the small town of Pontassieve where you can buy groceries from Coop. Also for a stress free trip we used the train from Pontassieve (for only around 3 euros/person) to Florence. There was also free parking in a designated area at the Pontassieve train station making the day very manageable. Gianna was the best host - she was kind and very accommodating! Our daughter and her friend joined us mid-week and also loved this countryside ‘La Casina’ which is located on the families olive farm. Relaxing in the sunshine, hiking on awesome paths and touring by car in Tuscany were memorable moments. Gianna’s daughter was very helpful giving us a hand to figure out our rented cars’ GPS which in the end was very important for us to have a great day out exploring new areas of the Chianti region -like the outlet luxury mall and the beautiful hotel villa la Palagina. One point we can add was the rented car was needed for our week long stay. We are so thankful to Gianna and her family for our wonderful stay at their lovely property! ☀️

"absolutely first rate accomodation and reception. Well equipped, comfortable and beautiful to boot. Very gracious, friendly and discrete hosts. A special treat were the fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs delivered to our doorstep, and the stocking of the kitchen on our arrival (day when the food shops were closed). Would definately recommend and do intend to return."

Perfekter Ort zum Herunterfahren!
Wir (2 Personen) waren für knapp 2 Wochen in dem Landhaus und haben es zu 100% genossen! Anreise: "Check-In" war problemlos, alles sehr sauber, insbesondere auch Bad und Küche, alles Wissenswerte gut vorbereitet in einem großen Ordner. Wir kamen an einem Vor-Feiertag, und Gianna - unsere Gastgeberin - hatte vorausschauend ein paar Basics zum Kochen eingekauft, weil ja die Geschäfte nicht offen haben würden - wow! Haus: der Wohn-/Essbereich ist auch der Eingangsbereich - 1 großer Raum mit Couch und Esstisch. Für unseren Aufenthalt im November ein wichtiger Raum; im Sommer wird man sicher mehr draußen sein. Nach oben geht's zur Galerie = Küche. Voll ausgestattet - lediglich einen Backofen gibt es nicht. Wir haben ausgiebig gekocht - Töpfe, Pfannen etc. waren ausreichend vorhanden. Über eine schmale Wendeltreppe geht es nach unten ins Schlafzimmer und ins Bad. Gerade bei der An-/Abreise ist es hilfreich, dass man auch von außen dort hin gelangt; im Alltag bleibt die Treppe - und die ist wirklich schmal. Wir haben sehr gut geschlafen; das Bad ist klein aber ausreichend; großzügige Schränke - damit man nicht aus dem Koffer leben muss - sind vorhanden. Umgebung: Man ist "ab vom Schuss"; wir fanden das super. Mit dem Zug ist man von Pontassieve in 20 Minuten mitten in Florenz, ansonsten mit dem Auto schnell "überall". Ausdrücklich hervorzuheben ist die Herzlichkeit der Gastgeberin Gianna. Wir haben viel über den Anbau von Oliven gelernt - vielen Dank auch dafür!
