Casa Via del Popolo n.1

This is a gem of a property. Hidden just off the main street in Palaia, accessed through a quiet courtyard. It is cool, spacious and extremely comfortable. The cleanliness is excellent. The private terrace has stunning views of the Tuscan hills and is close to the well-kept shared pool area. Bakery, grocery, pizzeria, gelateria, cafe are all within a 5 minute walk and the locals are very welcoming. We parked with ease and used the base to explore the locality including San Gimignano and Florence. We will definitely return.

Casa Via Del Popolo is our favourite holiday home! We have stayed there twice and will return next year. It has the 'holiday holy trinity' of relaxing on the terrace in glorious privacy, hopping outside with restaurants and cafes on the doorstep, plus easy day-tripping distance to Pisa, Luca, Siena and Florence! It is perfect for a young couple, or because everything so easy and close to hand it works a treat for older adults too. The villa has everything you will need and the views are just delightful! I guarantee your camera will be out the second you arrive. When you go, send it my love.

A comfortable apartment, a terrace a fabulous view in a charming Tuscan town which still has an authentic Italian feel to it - a rarity these days, an evenings strolling through the town which has retained its original character. Sitting outside with a glass of prosecco and then going to a simple but delicious, reasonably priced meal in one of the restaurants would be a delight.
