Casa Vacanze Podere Mezzastrada

Never have I ever had such a professional and helpful customer service with an accommodation. Any queries, questions and advice were replied instantly to make our stay perfection. The stunning accommodation is set in the beautiful Tuscan Countryside in a secure gated complex. We stayed in the 2 bedroom 2 bathroom villa which easily accommodates 6 people with the sofa bed. The kitchen area has everything you would need to make yourself meals aswell as a dishwasher to make your life easier along with a brick bbq on the patio/terrace if you prefer to cook a meal outside. We had 3 balconys YES THREE! and one large terrace so any escape outside to catch the sun or the sunsets was always possible. The apartment is spacious and cleanliness is of a very high standard. The laundry facilities on site are very handy with a washing machine and drier available and there are several green areas for those with children who can run around. The pool area is just stunning, set at the bottom of the complex with the most magnificent view of the Tuscan Hills and lots of sunbeds and seating area if you wished to sit at one of the many tables they have set out on the lawned area of the pool to enjoy a snack made in your rooms. Overall if you are wondering if to choose Podere Mezzastrada I hope this makes up your mind to do just that you will not be dissappointed.

Wir wurden im Nachhinein zu Unrecht beschuldigt Handtücher und Küchenutensilien entwendet zu haben.

We had originally booked for Summer 2020 but due to COVID we had to cancel. The hote asked us if we could reschedule to next year, even though we preferred a refund we decided to move to 2021. We unfortunately had to cancel again however this time they did not reply to my emails, I had sent 5 asking for my deposit and I’m the end have had to go through my bank for a charge back.

They did not refund my deposit even though I had a free cancellation booking and cancelled in time. I couldn’t travel because the flights were cancelled due to Covid. They promised me a refund but did not do so and have ignored my last 5 emails.

Super værtinde!!

We had a wonderful time with our kids in Tuscany and enjoyed the stay at Podere Mezzastrada a lot. The view is great, Carlotta very friendly, and the house we had was spacious. Nothing to complain about.

We rented a Villa for a week, for a wedding nearby and could not believe the beautiful surroundings. The Villa was lovely, authentic and well equipped, with stunning views of Tuscany. Susanne, who runs the apartments, was excellent and went above and beyond her care of duty for us making this a memorable holiday. We cannot thank her enough. Mezzastrada is set in a beautiful unspoiled landscape, with local bread deliveries and local towns a few minutes drive. a great location for exploring Tuscany. A perfect family hide away with simple pleasures.

I spent a week at Mezzastrada in August with friends staying in three apartments. The apartments themselves were really lovely, well equipped and exactly what you want when staying in Tuscany. Each apartment has its own terrace which offer some great views of Tuscany and the landscaped grounds. The pool was great my only complaint was the lack of sunbeds, the few their were being reserved all day by other residents. The location of Mezzastrada is great, it was a great base to explore Tuscany from. The highlight of the experience was Suzanne (who runs the apartments) who was amazingly helpful and made some great recommendations whilst staying there. Would recommend for anyone wanting a lovely peaceful base for exploring Tuscany.

Staying at Mezzastrada is like vacationing in a beautiful garden. The expansive grounds are well maintained, with hundreds of magazine worthy settings throughout. Rooms are arranged in rustic structures, with spacing to fit one to many. Its central location ensures peace in the foothills with towns like Pisa, Florence, and Sienna just a short drive through the countryside away. Most importantly, Susanna, the seasoned head administrator, ensured every detail in preparation, arrival, and throughout my stay. Don't go here expecting super fast wifi, vending machines, and other superficial comforts offered by the typical city hotel. Mezzastrada's charm for me was in deep natural beauty--old world features and unspoiled Italian backdrops--simple pleasures that are becoming too difficult to find these days.

We rented the entire collection of cottages at Mezzastrada for a week in June, firstly to accommodate guests for our wedding at the nearby castle and afterwards for a group holiday with family and friends. The manager Susanne was excellent, helping us plan everything in advance and a great source of knowledge and ideas. The cottages are all unique and all very well appointed in beautiful grounds. The swimming pool area is stunning with great views over the Tuscan countryside. Susanne also organised evening catering for the group by the pool which was a great way to end the day. It was the most memorable time for us and our guests and we were lucky to find such an excellent venue and manager!
