Villa di Capannole 12, Bucine - Arezzo

Would you like to translate?

We have just spent a week in the fabulous Villa di Capannole. The property is immaculate, beautifully appointed and just the perfect location for 'chilling out', yet brilliantly located for trips to Firenze, Arezzo and Sienna.

If you have young children there is a fully stocked play area with great equipment and even a baby alarm system around the pool perimeter!

The family, Lucia, Marco and Margherita looked after us royally. Margherita, the daughter, is a fully trained beauty therapist and was kept busy with massages all week!

Be sure to ask Lucia and Marco to cook for you. They will prepare an authentic Tuscan 4 course meal to your liking with great wines from their own vineyard at 35 Euros per person. It was the best meal we had all week.

Their wines are well worth a try so don't stock up at the local supermarket before you arrive!

An outstanding villa, lovely people where nothing was too much trouble - we would love to go back

Supervakantie gehad in de zeer mooie villa, een heel warm onthaal door de eigenaars die ontzettend bezorgd zijn dat alles naar wens verloopt, een heel mooi pand dat met hart en ziel onderhouden wordt, alles wat nodig is is voor handen. Samenvattend : superhuis en supermensen.

moeilijk om zeggen : de vele kleine restaurantjes in de bezochte steden (firenze, sienna,en de andere kleinere prachtige dorpjes serveren stuk voor stuk hele lekkere maaltijden, geen tijd om te vervelen, zalig vertoeven in de middeleeuwse dorpjes, en rijden in het toscaanse landschap, een streek naar ons hart

Alle Besucher haben sich sehr wohl gefühlt, die Aussenanlagen sind hervorragend, der Poolsevice war sehr gut, alle Fragen in der Woche wurden sofort bearbeitet bzw. erledgt.
Vielen dank für die schöne Woche, jederzeit wieder.

Incredible villa! The owners were very gracious hosts, very sweet and thoughtful and did everything to make our stay comfortable. The chef dinner they prepared themselves was incredible! Best dinner we had! Margherita’s massages were wonderful and the sauna was amazing. Our only was regret was not being able to use the pool. But we understand it was not warm enough in May and it did rain. Electricity is very expensive in Italy. The kids loved the play area and the grounds are beautifully kept. They keep the house in immaculate condition we were very impressed.

Great villa in immaculate condition. Lovely hosts who live 10 monutes away and are always keen to help. Very hard to find anything to complain about.
We had one technical issue which was solved in no time.

We were four couples sharing the Villa for two weeks Sept 24 to Oct 8. We were greeted by the owners with a quick info session, wine, a spread of delicious Local Italian Charcuterie... It was a perfect welcome! The homes were spotless, the grounds well manicured and the huge pool was sparkling every day! We used the BBQ a few times and when we got up the next day it had been cleaned ready for use! The only complaints we had were that the pool was way too cold even though we paid to have them turn up the heat and the ensuite in our bedroom that faced the pool, had a terrible smell from the shower drain. Other then that, we had an awesome vacation! We felt very comfortable and safe, we would go back for sure! We would recommend Villa Di Capannole as a perfect vacation destination...

We grocery shopped at the local "Coop", a five minute drive from the Villa. We went to a few of the local restaurants and enjoyed great meals! We drove to wineries in Castellare and Banfi. We had wine tastings and lunch there. We shopped at the outlet 'Mall' and Prada.

From the moment we reached the gates of the Villa di Capannole, which
is slightly "off the beaten track", and the gates opened to reveal the splendid property amongst this stunning setting , we knew it was going to be a great holiday. Everything was just as it was on the photographs, only better. Everywhere was beautifully clean, and our hosts had left us large platters of antipasti and Tuscan wine - and there were quite a few bottles - also of olive oil from the Estate in a cabinet in the living room.
All bedrooms were well appointed, bathrooms tastefully furnished, but
the highlight was the pool area with dining table under the pergola and
opposite the seating area under the canopy. We had chosen not to have
the pool heated and once you got in it felt beautifully refreshing in
the heat of the day, we swam lots.
The villa is located right in the middle of Chianti, between
Siena and Arezzo, and the mainline station for trains to Florence and
beyond is a mere 15 minutes drive away, as is the large Coop in
Montevecchio. We took day trips by car and train, exploring the
beautiful cities and surrounding countryside.
One night Lucia, Margherita and Antonello cooked a fabulous
meal for us. Two of us ladies had a most calming de-stressing massage by
Margherita which can be recommended wholeheartedly. Recommendations for restaurants were spot on and unfortunately we left
> heavy in heart - and weight - after an absolutely wonderful week.
> Thanks so much to Lucia, Margherita, Marco and Antonello. Nothing was
> too much for you, you all worked so hard to make our stay perfect!

The owners will recommend restaurants and arrange taxis. Florence is an easy train ride away at 7 euros and Sienna and Arezzo easy driving distances. Plenty of walks around.

As a family of 3 generations (5 adults plus 4 children aged 7 to 13) the villa was ideal. The reception we had on arrival from owners was great, including lots of tasty food! The large pool was fantastic for all the family with lots of different covered places to relax and plenty of sun beds to relax. The children enjoyed collecting fresh eggs and picking lovely fresh tomatoes. We had two great Tuscan supers cooked by the owners. The area around was great for walks and visits to Siena was less than an hour away. The villa made our Tuscan holiday a great success and we would not hesitate to return. ,

Siena Having dinner cooked by the owners.

Fantastyczne 2 wille z basenem.Wszystko zadbane i stylowe -szafy ,komody i wszystkie detale .Doskonale wyposażona kuchnia z wprost niesamowita ilością garnków ,patelni, szkła,zastawy i pięknych mis.Wszystko w bardzo dobrym guście.
Basen czysty i zadbany .Cała posiadłość doskonale zadbana w każdym szczególe.
Polecam wszystkim ,a szczególnie szukającym luksusu i przepięknego wystroju.
Bardzo mili właściciele przywitali nas Prosecco i poczęstunkiem , a w trakcie pobytu rozpieszczali swoim ciastem i tiramisu .Margarita z mamą mogłyby spokojnie pracować jako concierge w dowolnym 5 gwiazdkowym hotelu.Ostatniegon dnia złapaliśmy gumę w jednym z samochodów i trochę sie martwiliśmy ,bo to 20" koło i nawet w dużych miastach nie zawsze maja sprzęt do wymiany opony , ale Margarita z mamą załatwiły sprawę tak ,ze nie musieliśmy się ruszać z posiadłości .Przyjechał gumito - zdjął koło i za 2 godziny przywiózł i założył naprawione - po prostu super.
Gorąco polecam - wszystko jak na zdjęciach ,a nawet lepiej.

Po tego typu informacje to najlepiej do Mikołaja z to-toskania.pl .Profesjonalny -concierge- wszystko co nam polecił trafione w 10-tkę, Wszystkie restauracje i winnice. Największe wrażenie zrobiłą chyba restauracja rzeźnika Dario Cecchini w Panzano ,a jeśli chodzi o wino to oczywiście Ricasoli ,Badia a Colitibuono ,Boscarelli ,Talosa, Gattavecchii inne są wspaniałe ale zaskoczenie wakacji to Fontodi i Sassolini

WOW!!! This place is actually heaven on earth! The villa owners Marco, Lucia, Margherita and Antonello are the most wonderful hosts! They made us feel so welcome. They warmly greeted us with delicious food and wine when we arrived - just what we needed! They really made the whole experience for us. Our favourite meal was the night Lucia & Margherita cooked up a delicious traditional Tuscan feast for us. Oh wow, the food was divine! Another bonus is that Margherita is a beauty therapist - definitely book in for some massages!

From the minute the gates open, you enter a world of relaxation and beauty! The impeccably kept garden is full of wonderfully scented flowers, lemon and olive trees. The pool is immaculate and plenty of sun beds to go around. 3 lovely areas outdoor for dining and relaxing. The views over the vineyard are stunning. You are even treated to your own chicken coop with fresh eggs every morning. Not to mention the tomato plants with the most delicious tomatoes we've ever tasted!

The main villa is gorgeous. A perfect mix of modern luxury and traditional features. Lots of space for everyone. We were 9 adults with 2 toddlers and there was more than enough space for us all. Bedrooms totally immaculate and effective air conditioning in them all. The annex villa is just as beautiful. The main suite here is knock out!

It really is hard to explain this place without seeing it's beauty in real life. We had the most wonderful time. Perfect location (easy to find from Pisa airport and well placed for day trips), quiet and tranquil, stunning scenery, luxury accommodation & gardens and the most wonderful hosts. We can't wait to return!

We enjoyed a mix of chilling out at the villa and day trips. We visited Arezzo and Sienna from our base at the villa - both beautiful. Florence and Pisa we did on the way home. Again both are beautiful cities. Our favourite trip was wine tasting at Castello di Montozzi. Stunning scenery - delicious wine and food.

The whole Tuscan experience was absolutely wonderful. The villa is beautifully appointed & well situated in the heart of Tuscany. The owners were lovely and ever so accommodating. Five stars all the way around for Villa di Capannole.

Loved the whole area. Montepulciano & Pienza were favorites though. Viaggi d''Ambra (Azzura & Christian) provide a beautiful wine tour. Azzura was a lovely & knowledge guide.
