Laureen TrainorCasa Pietraia is a Tuscany treasure! We spent five nights/four days with Matteo, Giancarlo & Emma, enjoying the serene countryside, outstanding food & wine, spectacular sunsets and daily tours. The villa is warm and inviting with all the comforts of home. Matteo is an outstanding tour guide, he and Giancarlo are experts on the surrounding old towns with inside knowledge on great places to see and the cool people to meet. Meals at the villa are world-class with Chef Emma using local produce and their award winning olive oil... it simply the BEST! Make sure to ship some home! Highlight of our trip was the cooking class, so much fun. You are remarkable hosts, now friends. Thank you for sharing your family, passion and culture with us. We cannot wait to visit again!

Nancy GLENNWe are so grateful for our time at Casa Pietraia! Emma, Giancarlo, Matteo and their whole family made us feel like family as well! The villa is so comfortable with breathtaking views of the beautiful countryside! They took so much time and effort to plan out every detail of our visit. The dinner and breakfast were so delicious and picture perfect!! Our cooking class with Emma was a major highlight of our time at the villa! We will definitely plan a trip again! Thank you for all you did to help us while in your beautiful country! Even after we departed, they reached out to make sure our travels were going well. Such a lovely, caring family! Thank you again. Much love, Chad and Nancy TatePosted on Google
Vivien BeyerMein Mann und ich wollten mehr über die Herstellung von Olivenöl aus der Region erfahren und uns wurde daraufhin das Casa Pietraia empfohlen. Matteo hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und wir haben eine private Führung von ihm erhalten. Mit viel Herz und eine Menge Wissen hat Matteo uns unter anderem über die verschieden Olivensorten, die Herstellung von Olivenöl und deren Geschichte erzählt. Im Anschluss durften wir das fantastische Olivenöl probieren. Auch hier hat er uns angeleitet und viele Tipps gegeben wie man ein gutes Olivenöl von einem schlechten unterscheidet. Natürlich haben wir auch direkt Olivenöl für zu Hause mitgenommen. Wir würden diese Erfahrung auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen und bedanken uns nochmal bei Matteo für den wirklich interessanten und kurzweiligen Exkurs zum Thema Olivenöl!Posted on Google
Felix B.Wir haben eine super interessante Führung von Matteo (dem Besitzer der Farm) bekommen. Er hat uns in einem seiner Olivenhaine alles über die Olivenbäume erklärt. Von der Historie seiner Plantage, über die verschiedenen Baumarten, bis zum Ablauf der Pflege und Ernte eines Olivenbaums. Auch die Olive an sich und wie daraus gutes Öl gewonnen wird, hat er uns kurzweilig nahe gebracht. Im Anschluss hat er uns erklärt, wie man Olivenöl verkostet und erkennt, ob ein Olivenöl gut ist. Sein eigenes Olivenöl ist wirklich toll, mehrfach ausgezeichnet und wird in die ganze Welt verkauft. Matteo ist ein super lieber Typ und erklärt auf interessante Weise wie seine Arbeit funktioniert. Ein wirklich sehenswerter Ort. Auch Übernachtungen direkt in der Villa sind möglich.Posted on Google
Clarissa EMy husband and I were in search for excellent olive oil Tuscany had to offer and we found it at Casa Pietraia. Matteo kindly let us visit Casa Pietraia on short notice and was very hospitable when we got there, even on a very busy day. He gave us some background on the history of the region and explained the process on producing excellent quality olive oil. The olive grove is family owned and we could see how passionate they are with what they do. We love their olive oil so much that we bought a few in all sizes for our family and as souvenir. He poured it directly from the barrels to the bottles that same day. We were so happy to find fresh organic olive oil! Bonus - the view of Chianti from the villa is breathtaking!Posted on Google

Nicole NoldeEine herzliche Familie empfing uns auf einem wunderschönen Fleckchen Erde! Wir haben als Familie ( 7 Personen mit 3 Generationen) zwei Wochen Urlaub bei der Casa Pietraia machen dürfen! Es war traumhaft schön und uns fehlte nichts! Matteo, Gian Carlo und Emma sind wunderbare, liebe Gastgeber, die immer für alle Wünsche und Fragen bereit stehen! Die Wohnung ist großzügig und wie ein eigenes Zuhause eingerichtet! Gemütlich im Wohnbereich, moderne Badezimmer an jedem Schlafzimmer. Eine sehr gut ausgestattete Küche und viele Sitzmöglichkeiten zum gemeinsamen Essen oder Entspannen! Englischsprachige Literatur und Bildbände, sowie Reiseführer der Gegend stehen zur Benutzung im Bücherregal! Die Außenanlagen sind sehr gepflegt und der Pool ist groß und lädt bei den warmen Temperaturen zum Abkühlen ein! Sitz-und Liegemöbel sind mit Sonnenschirmen und Pergola angenehm beschattet. Emma ist eine fantastische Köchin! Toskanische Spezialitäten lecker mit viel Liebe zubereitet und dekoriert! Auch das vielseitige Frühstück ist ein Traum! Für Ausflüge erfährt man viele Tipps von der Familie, so dass jeder Urlaubstag perfekt geplant werden kann! Die Abende auf der Casa sind besonders schön! So wunderbare Sonnenuntergänge haben wir selten zu sehen bekommen! Wir planen jetzt schon unseren nächsten Besuch bei der Casa Pietraia!Posted on Google
Marek DwornikJeżeli ktoÅ› szuka 100% Toskanii, oszaÅ‚amiajÄ cych widoków, niezwykle miÅ‚ych i uprzejmych ludzi, niewiarygodnej kuchni, ciszy i spokoju to Casa Pietraia jest tym miejscem. W różnych miejscach spÄ™dzaliÅ›my wakacje ale bardzo rzadko siÄ™ zdarza, żeby rzeczywistość przekraczaÅ‚a oczekiwania. Duża zasÅ‚uga gospodarzy czyli Emmy i jej kuchni, Giancarlo, który dba o jakość i klimat tego miejsca oraz Matteo który jest w stanie pomóc i zorganizować wszystko o czym siÄ™ pomyÅ›li. Bardzo Wam za to dziÄ™kujemy! Dla nas absolutny Top.Posted on Google
Taylor McKenzieWe had an absolute perfect time staying here. Our hosts were wonderful. Highly recommend Emma’s cooking class. Matteo’s recommendations for things to do/places to eat were amazing! Can’t wait to go back!!
