Villa Le Torri Vacation rentals - 88

Completely fell in love with the villa. We stayed there last week with my wife's family and really didn't want to leave. The villa is really beautiful and you are made to feel very welcome. The welcome buffet that is put on the Saturday night is amazing you won't taste anything better. We also booked the 6 course dinner on the Wednesday night, again the food was amazing from the truffles to ravioli and then gabys mums lasagna is to die for. Also the beef and vegetables not to mention tiramisu. The location of the villa is really central too if you have hired a car. Some of family went visit villages or city's every day and were back for 2/3 o'clock missing the warm midday sun but still getting to lay by the pool till 8 o'clock to top up your tan. We decided every 2nd day and just chilled by the pool the others. There is a wine tasting tour in the castle just a 10min walk down from the villa. My wife and I don't drink red wine but after the tour we now know how to enjoy the wine with different meats and cheese so bought a bottle of 2012 chianti that only 500 bottles are produced a year. We also bought a bottle of the extra virgin olive oil, it has a nice pepper taste to it but will only come out on special occasions. The owner Gabriele never stops to make sure your holiday is the best it can be, most days he was there from 7 in the morning till 12 at night. He really does take pride of villa le torri it's such a beautiful place to stay. Oh and don't forget to purchase a wee keep sake from just at the reception office, beautifully hand painted ceramics by gabys wife.

We just returned home after spending a very relaxing month at LeTorri with friends once again. I could go on for days telling you about: the endless authentic Tuscan welcome buffet that the whole Cantini family takes part in, beautiful manicured grounds and gardens, the fun you’ll have at Monday’s cooking class with professional chef Pierpaolo, the glorious midweek 5 course dinner (which includes the famous Fiorentina beefsteak grilled to perfection by Paolo) and topped off with Gabry’s homemade limoncello, laundry facilities with a library of books for your reading pleasure, homemade jams and pasta sauce for sale made by Gabry’s mother Maria Pia along with beautiful professional ceramic pieces and jewelry made by Gabry’s wife Emanuela, spacious apartments with well equipped kitchens, large stylish pool area, but there are many other perks that others haven’t captured in their reviews! Gabry can arrange for a car to be delivered to the villa for you at the same rate we rented a car from Hertz through AAA. He can also have a very safe driver pick you up at the airport (70 euros for up to 4 people in Florence). You’ll get a very informative historical guided tour on back roads as you make your way to the villa. If you want tickets for museums in Florence, just let Gabry know before you arrive and he’ll have them ready for you, as well as print boarding passes for you before you leave to go home. He’ll make dinner reservations for you and make suggestions for good places, if you wish along with wine tastings and tours. Be sure to take advantage of his “First Day Supplies” offer. If you do, you’ll find your refrigerator and pantry stocked with those things you’ll want on Sunday morning (i.e., coffee, milk, bread, cheese, cereal, fruit, etc.) when the grocery stores are closed. Since Gabry knew we’d taken many daytrips from LeTorri to all of the well know towns and cities on previous visits he suggested some other charming places close by such as Barberino Val di Pesa, Montefioralle, and my favorite – Certaldo! After taking the funicular to Certaldo Alto, wander all of the quaint streets and be sure to have some cappuccino decorato at the Caffeteria Bar Boccaccio’s outdoor terrace. A true work of art! I promise you’ll not find a better experience in Tuscany than LeTorri…..

A wonderful rental and excellent value, perfect for our vacation needs- half tourism, half relaxation. Our hosts were extremely friendly and willing to help with all of our bookings/questions/etc. We loved that we could stay in a place with some history, but still enjoy modern amenities, and the location was perfect- surrounded by the landscapes of Tuscany, but with easy access to Florence, Siena, etc. Be sure to make time for the cooking class they offer on-site!

A lovely place to stay 25 km from everything. A wonderful family enterprise, pool, flowers, parking, . Caring family with great energy and empathy. 2 and 1 bedroom units with full kitchen. Great attention to guest comfort and activities. Beautiful countryside. Word of mouth recommendation paid off with marvellous 2 week stay. Welcoming marvellous dinner, and opportunity for midweek feast, local winery visit. Hoping to return to smell the verdure and flora.

My wife and I holidayed at Le Torri in Summer of 2015. Amazing in every way. Our best friends also visited with their 2 adult children in the Fall of 2018. They loved it. We love to travel the world and plan to return to Le Torri in Spring 2022.

This is one of the best kept secrets in Tuscany. 30 minutes from Florence which is easily accessible, Le Torri was one of our absolute favourites and we will be back!! Gabry and his family are so welcoming, had a wonderful welcome buffet and a dinner mid week. Beautiful grounds and pool. Walk to the village for groceries. Cant say enough good! Make sure you go. Such a wonderful escape!!

We just returned from a wonderful, relaxing week at Le Torri. It is a fantastic setting to take-in the beauty and the small village has very few tourists. When you want more action, you can hop into your car and take a stunning drive to a larger village. We had fun group of 14 and there we also some groups of four. Perfect for large or small groups. Gabry and his family are wonderful hosts and the meals are incredible. Side note: Gabry has great deals on his wine!

I traveled with 2 girlfriends last May/June to Tuscany and we stayed for a week. The building and grounds are beautiful but the really amazing thing was the way we were welcomed and enjoyed a wonderful feast on the first evening and had a chance to meet all the other guests who were there that week. Gabby was incredibly helpful and available and on the Wednesday evening, we had the most amazing dinner of thin crust pizzas that he and his wife had prepared. Every imaginable combination of toppings - they just kept coming. I absolutely would recommend (and have already) to anyone considering a trip to Tuscany. You need to have a car for this location.
