We spent a delightful week in April 2014 at Borgovallesanta in Duddova Italy. We arrived in the afternoon. The directions given were a bit vague but soon realized to stop in the restaurant for help finding our villa. We were greeted by Leonardo, the owner, whose family runs the restaurant. We rented the two bedroom L'Uliveta apartment. The furnishings were charming and the beds quite comfortable. The kitchen was small and required unplugging one appliance in order to use another but we were not there to cook. There were dishes and pots provided so you could cook if you wanted. Our favorite spot was breakfast on the little balcony. We were out touring late most days so we only had one chance to have dinner at the restaurant one night. The dinner was delicious. Our one regret was our failing ability to speak Italian. I am sure Leonardo’s father has a wealth of information on the history of the village of Duddova. The village is beautiful. Very few buildings make up the town. There was some sort of restoration going on at the church. Since it was April the pool was closed so I can’t comment on that.
General thoughts on the location- our GPS took us up this narrow road going for several miles. On our first trip we both were worried that the location may not have been the best as a home base for touring. We later stumbled on a better route. This made the location fine for us for seeing several parts of Tuscany and even Umbria.
Personal thoughts on the location – we are indebted to Leonardo for his help. After checking in with him and finding our villa we discovered our rental car wouldn’t start. He aided us by contacting the rental car company (won’t use budget again!) finding us someone to tow the car and transport us back to pick up a new car.
Overall we had a wonderful stay at L'Uliveta.

Wonderful Villa. Excellent value. Great Pool. We loved the fireplace. Our only disappointment was the temperature of the water in the hot tub. It is solar only and was not hot enough for us to use. Very private with spectacular views. Flora and Roberto are wonderful hosts.

This villa is truly amazing. We spent a girls week here and had a fabulous experience. The owners went out of their way to make sure our experience was top notch. We had an excellent dinner prepared by Lucia and Gabriele made a point to spend some time with us talking about wine etc. The house was clean and grounds gorgeous. We also loved the location. We could drive to most places in Tuscany in 30 minutes or less. When I go back to Tuscany, and I will, I will be staying here again. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Great place for family get together or just for two. A hard place to find but once there it was just lovely. Not posh but comfortable and homey. We were grateful that the restaurant was open each night we were there and took advantage of the amazing food each night. Excellent value and fresh, great tasting food. No choice, just four courses served to you. Although we had some picky eaters, everyone cleaned their plates! Children can have pasta and dessert for 5 euro ....... Perfect. Plus their adequate house wine is 5 euro a bottle ...... Their own vineyard. We couldn't recommend this more highly. Sergio and Stefano were fantastic and very helpful..... Nothing too much of a problem. One of our party was gluten intolerant and they made him amazing food every night. He has never been treated so well. So, yes, stay here ........ I would again. Although I said it was far away up a hill we still did day trips to Forence, Lucca and Sienna and also took advantage of the walking trails all around the property.

Ein unvergesslicher Urlaub in der Toskana!!!

Als erstes waren wir nicht sicher was uns erwartet, aber alle unsere Erwartungen wurden mehr als übertroffen. Der Turm befindet sich auf einem Privatgrundstück (ca. 2km Bergauf vom Hauptanwesen), welches trotz der teilweise unbefestigten Strasse, auch mit einem normalem Auto recht gut zu erreichen ist. Nach der herzlichen Begrüssung wurden wir zum Turm begleitet und ab dem ersten Moment fing das Geniessen an. Kaminholz war vor dem Turm aufgestapelt, sogar eine Flasche Wein und hausgemachte Zitronenmarmelade wurde zur Begrüssung übergeben.

Die Ruhe, die Aussicht und die Natur um den Turm herum, haben uns den Alltag schnell vergessen lassen. Den ganzen Tag kroch ein einmaliger Wild-Pfefferminz- und Wild-Rosmarinduft in unsere Nasen und nur der Wind und Wasser waren zu hören. Bei gutem Wetter hat man im Richtung West – Südwest auch die schönen Inseln Giglio, Elba und Montecristo gut sehen können, oder wenn man sich umdreht hat man ein Superblick ins Landesinnere gehabt.

Wir haben auch die Möglichkeit genutzt zu Fuss den Naturpark zu erforschen und den privaten Naturstrand zum Baden und Sonnen zu nutzen, also Wanderer oder Mountainbiker kommen auch auf Ihre Kosten ;-)

Der Ausflug nach Talamone, zum Naturstrand von Albarese und zu warmen Quellen von Saturnia ist auch ein Muss.

Ansonsten kann man abends den Tag ruhig ausklinken lassen, nach dem Sonnenuntergang dann entweder vor dem Kamin das Feuerknistern geniessen, oder in der Turmspitze einfach chillen.

Wir kommen gerne wieder!!!!

Danke, Grazie, Thank you, Hvala
