Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Colle di Val d'Elsa

We were six adults, two children (3-year-olds) and one infant staying at the house for a week. It’s located in a secluded spot with a large garden and beautiful views of the Tuscan landscape. We used all of the five bedrooms upstairs and they were dark and cool. The kitchen and living room downstairs also stayed cool. Right outside the kitchen there’s a really nice spot that’s in the shade for the most part of the day, where we had most of our meals. This is a great place to relax and enjoy a dip in the pool. However, you definitely need a car to get around. The gardener came around several times a day to maintain the pool etc. We appreciated this, but might be good to know if you’re looking for complete privacy. We also had some issues with the bathrooms; one toilet and a shower didn’t work properly but were fixed within a day and this didn’t affect our experience. The washing machine didn’t work despite repeated attempts by the host to fix it. The barbecue is in the trash room.

We loved our stay at Lorenzo’s place. We were a party of four adults and a baby. Lorenzo was very accommodating in organising a cot and highchair. The bedrooms are spacious and having the upper deck off them was great, opening the curtains in the morning to that view is a fantastic way to start the day. The garden is lovely, and we enjoyed visits from Lorenzo’s cats, although they did not come into the house. We walked into the town most days, it is a pleasant walk, even pushing a stroller. Everyone we met was very friendly, San Miniato has all the charm of a hilltop town without hordes of visitors. We had some great meals, Lorenzo had left a book of local information, including recommendations for restaurants, which we made good use of. We could have stayed longer, and will do so if we are lucky enough to return. Thank you Lorenzo.

Staying at Flora's was nothing short of magical! We spent a week at Flora's with our kids (3.5 and 6.5) during April and had a lovely time. The unit is comfortable, well kept and cosy. The surroundings are quiet and picturesque. The location makes it easy to travel around northern Tuscany in a rental car, and you can also park at the town nearby (2 mins drive) and take the bus to Florence (which takes about 30 minutes). Flora herself is a kind and attentive host and made us feel so welcome. Our kids loved playing with Goofy the dog and watching the chickens from across the fence. The fresh eggs, olive oil, cookies and sweet wine were a nice and welcoming touch. We feel lucky to have had the opportunity to say at Flora's and would wholeheartedly recommend it!

We had a great time at this place in a great location, with simply beautiful views! The sunsets were awesome. The accommodation is very well equipped, comfortable and perfectly suited to feel at home. A big thank you to Isabella for her warm welcome and valuable advice throughout the stay.

Very peaceful, located in a secluded and beautiful setting. Very clean and charming.

We loved our long stay at Il Fienile. Stunning location (very remote!), beautiful little home and yard. Everything was clean and had everything needed for our nine days here. We loved it!

A dream come true, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy where peace ,tranquility and simplicity reign. Borgo di Quota 10 minutes from the village Poppi along a well-maintained bending road accessible to everyone,among other things in the village of Poppi you can find all the services possible. A special mention to Host Claudia , a wonderful person as well as the apartment. But I think words are not enough for a place so you have to live it,and I add that you eat really well in the area. Forgotten in Quota you will also find a very well-stocked shop run by special people.

We stayed at Silvia’s place for a couple of weeks for a family holiday with 2 kids and had a very nice stay. Ut was sufficient room for all of us and the kids loved the garden. Very close and easy access to the station with direct link to Florence, pisa and Sienna. Silvia and Lorenzo were very helpful and friendly and made us feel welcome. We had a great time and would highly recommend.

Our group of 4 had the most wonderful experience. From the moment that you begin to ascend the mountain to the villa you are surrounded by the rolling hills of Tuscany lined with cypress trees and vineyards. The host is so kind, gave wonderful recommendations for places to go (even making reservations), and joined us for a meal. Our group had such an amazing experience we want to make visiting the villa a yearly experience. We cannot thank Gary enough for everything that he did!

I had the most amazing experience staying at this beautiful villa in Florence. The location was perfect—peaceful, private, and surrounded by stunning views that took my breath away, especially from the parking area. The villa itself was incredibly cozy and charming—so well maintained and full of character. Honestly, I didn’t want to leave. I’d live there if I could! The pool was a dream—relaxing, and the perfect spot to unwind with the Tuscan countryside all around you. Our host, Leonardo, was absolutely fantastic—so friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. You can tell he really cares about making guests feel at home. This place was everything I hoped for and more. I would 100% come back again. Highly recommend!

This little hamlet was ideal for a group of several families wanting a Tuscan holiday. Christina was a very responsive host, always available for help and suggestions. One down side was the distance from many of the Tuscan attractions such as Florence and Sienna. The hamlet is reasonably remote so is ideal for those who want a secluded holiday rather than those who want to see the sights of Tuscany.

We had a nice weekend in the tranquility of the Tuscan hills in an area not far from Arezzo. The pool is quite large and you can relax quietly on the sun loungers. The apartment is very cozy and equipped with everything you need with an outdoor patio to have breakfast or meals. Finally, another plus point goes to Marika for the hospitality, hospitality and description of the place with the various activities to do. A truly impeccable host from whom you can see a true passion for her work by taking care of the maintenance of common spaces

We had a great stay at Piandarca. Davide met us at check-in and showed us to our apartment. After check-in offered welcome drinks which we enjoyed in the nearby veranda. The entire property is beautiful, with plenty to explore. Very pet friendly as well (a few dogs, cats, chickens, etc.). Plenty of amenities available, including optional extra's. We took advantage of a cooking class on-site one rainy afternoon, which was led by Anna and Davide in their on-site kitchen. As a group of Americans who can't speak any Italian, taking a cooking class led by the lovely Anna who can't speak English, was a very entertaining evening (it's all in the hand movements!). Luckily we had Davide to translate for us when needed. Our stay was the first week in October, and while the pool was open, it was too cold to use.

A fantastic time. We were very satisfied with our 2 toddlers. The apartment looked much better than in the photos. Sparkling clean and well equiped kitchen. We had the most fun by the pool, beautiful views, and super quiet. Only 45 min. from Pisa Tower. The hostess was very nice and helpful. We will definitely come back.

We really loved our stay, the beautiful surroundings and the place was even better than the pictures. Alfredo was very responsive and friendly. Would really recommend if you’d like a peaceful stay with close proximity to local Tuscan villages to explore.

Totally recommended. The apartment had everything you need to spend a few days. Annalisa was very nice and left us for breakfast. Communication with her was very easy and gave us total flexibility to get to the apartment. The only upgradeable is that in the small bed two people fit very fair. Everything else was excellent!

We had a wonderful stay at this property which is a bit difficult to reach, but is more than worth the painstaking arrival. The fantastic location is simply breathtaking – expansive fields lined with cypresses and olive trees create a backdrop that looks like a Tuscany picture book. The hosts were extremely nice and charming. They provided us with great tips for excursions and activities in the area, which has enriched our stay. Particularly noteworthy is that our dog also felt very comfortable and we could thus enjoy relaxing time as a family. In summary, we can recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience the true beauty of Tuscany. A place to relax and enjoy – here we will be happy to come back.

Valeria is always kind and available. Arriving with bicycles was super flexible on check-in time and made us fix the bikes in the house without any problem. Clean and comfortable apartment and just outside the walls of Pienza, therefore foreign to the tourist hustle and bustle. I recommend it

*Super super nice and relaxing* We had a great time and, above all, the relaxation we were longing for. The view was even more beautiful than we expected from the photos. Daniele was a perfect and very nice host. The accommodation inside and outside was also 100% what we had hoped for. Highly recommended!

Boggina was such a beautiful setting for our two families. There is no air conditioning, but the house kept beautifully cool by using the shutters in the day and using fans at night. The bedrooms were dreamy, full of trinkets from families past. The pool was fantastic and we enjoyed a lovely wine tasting tour! We basically didn’t want to leave! Many thanks team Marco 😊

We had an amazing stay. The pictures do not do this place justice. The view was amazing. The place was spacious and stocked up with everything you would need. There was fresh fruit, breakfast items, and coffee enough for the whole stay and more. I forgot my charger converter and Leonardo brought us one so we never lost power. 10/10

First of all, I would like to emphasize the availability and courtesy of the people who welcomed us. The farm is quite close to places of interest and at the same time well isolated because it is above a hill... ideal! The property is spacious and well organized in two blocks and this ensures calm and privacy. The apartment is very nice, rustic and cozy.

⸻ Perfect stay! The house is really super tidy, with attention to detail, small but with everything you need: comfortable, cozy and with all the comforts. They also made us find a breakfast kit that was a very welcome surprise! The hosts were exceptional: super attentive, helpful, and kind. They guided us step by step on how to access the house. At the end of the stay we left the keys to the father, a really exquisite and friendly person, he made us feel at home. A very positive experience, highly recommended! We would definitely come back.

Great location and the 2 full size bathrooms were nice!
