We stayed for 4 nights at the end of our honeymoon trip to Italy. The apartment was spacious and clean, and had everything we needed for making breakfasts and light dinners. Lovely location with pool, and beautifully tended grounds bursting with flowering plants.
Eloise was very friendly, cheerful and helpful. Highly recommend her dinner the night you arrive. There are not too many restaurants nearby.
We would definitely return here!

Charming Villa in the Tuscan Countryside
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Tuscany in this beautiful villa. Eloise and Alex truly made our experience in this stunning location special. Eloise was so helpful in answering our questions and giving suggestions about places to visit in the area. One of our best memories of La Palazzina was sitting next to the pool and eating a delicious meal prepared by Eloise, including wild boar and farm fresh vegetables from the garden! We also ate delicious breakfasts prepared by our hosts each morning.
What a treat it was for us to stay in an historic property that has been so lovingly cared for! Our room was clean and absolutely charming!
We will definitely recommend this property to family and friends, and hope to return someday in the not too distant future.
Thanks again, Eloise and Alex, for a great stay!

Quiet and relaxing stay in the Tuscan hillside
We had a fantastic stay at La Palazzina, Eloise made us feel very welcome and you can tell that she wants you to have a fantastic stay, which is nice.
You must sample Eloise's home made wine, it is delicious.
Our apartment was comfortable, clean and tidy, with all the basic amenities required to make simple meals.
The pool area and views are lovely, the only small comment is it would be nice if all the sun loungers had cushions, as after a while they were a bit hard.
You must have a car when staying at La Palazzina, as even the nearest town is about a 10-15 minute drive up and down the Tuscan hills, the location is great for exploring the local towns and wine country. There is a large Co-op supermarket for supplies in nearby Monteroni D'arbia.
If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxed stay in the Tuscan hills then La Palazzina would be ideal, we certainly enjoyed our 9 nights here and would recommend it to others!

Perfect for a relaxing break
We stayed at La Palazzina for just over a week and really enjoyed it. The pool is fantastic and the location is beautiful, perfect for trips to Siena and other towns and villages in Tuscany. The accommodation was very nice - just remember to bring the basics with you, including salt & pepper, oil, washing-up liquid, etc. Eloise provided a fantastic meal for all the guests on our second night, which was really special. The whole place is beautifully kept and makes for a lovely, relaxing holiday.

Charming place for family holidays
We rented the Crevole apartment for 1 week with our 1 year old baby and the holidays were great. The Murlo area is very beautiful with many things to discover. Eloise and all her family were a great help with many tips in order to enjoy as much as possible our stay.
The apartment was fully functional for a small family, even with a baby.
We truly recommend this place for a Toscan trip.
