Villa Under Review



In order to provide good useful advise & property recommendations, each visit by us to Italy & France requires many hours of property inspecting, sometimes 5 or 6 per day :- how many bathrooms; is there somehwere to hang clothes; does it have a washing machine !!! Oh and a dishwasher would be nice.
 
Thus this page is meant to be a collection of inspection notes and some of our personal photos to give you a little more insight into some of our favourite properties.

The star ratings are just indicative of my personal feeling about the property and in no way reflect hotel type ratings. Thus 3 stars does not mean luxury but rather somewhere I would love to stay.
 
Please do not hesitate in phoning or emailing if you require more information.

 The 1st group of notes and photos features the
Main House.

The front door opens onto a spacious lounge room, from here are doorways to a 2nd lounge room, the dining room and the kitchen with stairs leading up to the bedrooms.

This lounge room has an airy light feeling to it as it has 12 foot ceiling height.

 
This picture is of the loggia into the kitchen with herbs growing in the pots.These stairs lead down into the grounds and to the pool.
 
 There is a small kitchen table for 4 but also a large family dining table that seats 10


 

 The pool is set amongst a grove of ancient olive trees

There is further large family room on a lower level opening out onto a terrace above the pool area. A long table can be setup to dine on this terrace in the summer. This room also has a billiard table



Villa delle Upupe - At a Glance
 
 
 
 
This beautiful Villa is just a few kilometres outside of Castellina in Chianti  with Panoramic views of the Tuscan countryside.

With the combination of the large house for six and the smaller houses this is ideal for couples where 2 couples might have young children and thus be semi independant.
**** See sidebar for how I derive these ratings
