Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Apennine Mountains

We had an absolutely amazing time at Daniela’s place - it was clean, had stunning views and was quick access to Pisa, Florence & Siena. Beautiful pool and lovely terrace with amazing views and sunsets. The kitchen also had everything we needed, including local olive oil and pasta & local wine as a welcoming gift. Daniela went above and beyond providing us with lilos and a pump for the pool too. Overall, 10/10 stay!

Our stay at Piero’s home was the highlight of our family’s three week Italy trip! It is one of the most beautiful homes we have stayed at and the spectacular vineyards, gardens, and pool really added something special. We plan to definitely return/stay again! Thank you Piero for sharing your special home!

We felt like kings of the castle in Stefano and Sylvias’s place. Top of a hill with expansive views and always such a beautiful breeze. San Quirico was lovely as was Bagno Vignoni at the bottom of our hill. We could see the twinkling lights of Pienza and Montepulciano both of which were an easy drive away. Generosity in the way the villa was presented and our hosts’ welcome, with many wonderful local suggestions. Would highly recommend.

A very cozy, quiet, and beautiful place. But above all, Adriana has been a wonderful host. Thanks to her, we were able to visit everything we wanted, thanks to her tips, ideas, and suggestions.

Rina and her family could not have been any more welcoming and helpful. We stayed for a wedding which was at the castello di montignano and when we had an issue with the transport on one of the days they kindly offered to take us. There is lots of space and the scenery is out of this world. Massa mattana is approx a 30 minute walk. If wanting to explore further afield a car is needed although there are bikes available too. If heading for the castello you will need transport in advance. We had a wonderful stay and would love to return in the future.

We have just had an amazing stay at Carolina's beautiful house!! Carolina is an exceptional host, very welcoming, informative and helpful. She went above and beyond. The views were stunning from the Terrace, we loved sitting out in the evening and drinking Carolina's family made red wine. She even supplied us with fresh zucchini, onions and basil from her garden. Praiano also comes highly recommended. This area is so special. Thank you so much Carolina!!! We didn't want to leave.

A perfectly situated little apartment with an incredible view of the Marina! We had our pick of restaurants along the waterfront steps from the apartment. Salvatore was super helpful and friendly! He helped us make some restaurant bookings and also lent us some beach towels during our visit. The apartment is small and basic but very clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. Already miss enjoying a coffee or glass of wine on that balcony with that view!

The house is beautiful and unlike anything else. What made the experience amazing was one of the hosts, Daniela. Daniela greeted us upon check in, walked us around the house and went above and beyond and booked us a wine tour where he graciously translated everything in English during the entire experience. Daniela made the place feel like home and I couldn’t recommend him and the experience he provides more.

Wow, what a beautiful apartment this was. Nestled in the countryside by the Tuscany/Umbria border is this gorgeous farmhouse owned by Simona and Yens and what a find it was! The rolling hills are captivating and if you want to switch off, enjoy visiting beautiful villages, eat lovely food and really rest, this is the place to do it. We were welcomed by their two friendly dogs and received lots of tips about the local area from Yens on arrival. The apartment is spacious and serene. From spending evenings on the patio eating al fresco, watching the stars or having morning swims, we had a wonderful time and would wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone and everyone seeking some peace and quiet. The farmhouse is remote but it's very easy to get anywhere by car and the drives are never dull with the countryside views. It's hard to put into words how relaxing this place is and so I suggest you book and find out, you won't regret it! Thank you so much Simona and Yens!

This was our first time in Rome and we could have not selected a better place to stay. Everything was as described, Raffaella was a great host and provided excellent recommendations. Trevi Fountain right outside the window!!!

Rosa’s place was beautiful, spacious and well located! It was clean and modern and we loved the rooftop terrace. It had all the amenities we needed and then some! We absolutely loved our stay and HIGHLY recommend.

This estate is a dream—life changing in all the best ways. From the jasmine-scented gardens and sweeping views of Siena to the beautifully restored guest suites—personally designed by Andrea, an architect and true artist—every detail felt magical. He greeted us so warmly, spent generous time sharing the estate’s history, and even gifted us a bottle of his family’s wine—which was absolutely lovely and made us feel truly welcome. The plunge pool was a refreshing retreat, and the setting was pure tranquility: birdsong, rustling leaves, and golden Tuscan sunsets. Andrea gave us a wonderful tour and shared the story behind his family’s efforts to preserve this incredible place. We adored the gentle Maremma dogs, Fiora and her puppy, Pecorino, who made us feel right at home. We were so impressed with this stay and Andrea’s efforts to preserve this very special place. Every moment here felt like a scene from a film—elegant, peaceful, and filled with soul. We can’t wait to return.

Spectacular view. Relaxing after a long trip thru wineries. Town was very cute and comfortable

This is Tuscany at its finest! Our stay at Casa Bonari was perfect. The villa inside was spacious, beautiful, comfortable, and wonderfully Italian. It was equipped with everything we needed. The exterior grounds were gorgeous and the views from the property in every direction were breathtaking. We made dinner and ate on the patio - it looked like a picture from a magazine. The villa is within easy walking distance of the charming Monticchiello which has a few excellent restaurants. We enjoyed strolling the picturesque streets and the incredible views of the countryside from the village. Our hostess, Valentina, was very gracious and helpful. We enjoyed meeting some of the friendly family members. They were so kind and left us with happy memories. We highly recommend Casa Bonari and hope to visit again.

Words and photos cannot adequately describe the beauty and tranquility of this place. It’s name translated - ‘Enchantment’ says it best. It is my new favorite spot in the entire world. I smiled the whole time I was here. Chiara is a wonderful host and an excellent communicator. If you are solo and worried about your mobility to walk across the bridge- ask about hitching a ride with your luggage on the ATV for a price. Prior to coming Chiara asks if you would like groceries delivered- take her up on it. There are no stores for groceries in the small town and most restaurants closed at 5pm. One restaurant had muffins and pastries for breakfast. Chiara does have a well stocked wine cellar that has reasonable prices. She had also asked prior to my arrival if I’d like to book a massage- don’t wait until you are there, you must book ahead as the service quickly books up. Incanto di Civita was an incredible experience, and Chiara was a wonderful host. I hope to one day return. ❤️

We stayed in the apartment with Karen and Raffaele for almost 2 weeks. It is a very pleasant apartment for 2 people with a lovely terrace/balcony. The reception by Raffaele was very warm and the contact was accessible. All the sights of Florence are within walking distance, delicious, not so touristy, restaurants literally around the corner. In short, recommended!

I highly recommend Bryan's place it is extremely beautiful and well maintained with an amazing back drop. Bryan and his family are very welcoming. If you want a taste of Tuscany you need to stay here.

We stayed for 5 night and enjoyed this large, well appointed two story apartment. The place was warm and inviting and was an authentic home to be a unique setting. My family enjoyed the surroundings and there was plenty of restaurants to close from. Be prepared to tackle the 52 steps to the apartment door which my 90 year old mother managed twice a day. Keeps you healthy.

Francesco’s place was a dream and we couldn’t be more appreciative of his warm hospitality. The vegetation is even more beautiful in person and the property is quiet and relaxing. I’ve rarely stayed in such a well stocked airbnb. Francesco even came to help us get our car out of a narrow street. *Don’t follow google map directions to get to the house if you’re in anything bigger than a smart car

We were immediately enchanted by this property. Everything here makes up the image that one can have of the beautiful Tuscan countryside. At the top of the hill overlooking the valley, the view is splendid and romantic. The property has been renovated with today's comforts while retaining its soul of yesteryear. You feel good right away, the energy is beneficial, nature, animals, everything is in harmony! The welcome, Oscar's cooking, the superb pool, the shaded terrace, the hearty homemade breakfasts! It's more than a favorite, this place is a gem! We'll be back!

Maria’s place was beautiful and exactly as described! It was bigger than expected and had a cute balcony we really enjoyed spending late afternoons relaxing! We had a great time in Montepulciano, it was relaxing and slow paced after a busy few weeks before ☺️ Maria provided local recommendations and was always responsive. If you’re thinking of booking here I highly recommend!

Claudia’s apartment is right in the heart of the action on a bustling street. Still easy to sleep like a baby (new windows, good sound protection). The unit is comfortable, clean, beautiful. Not huge in size, but great for a few nights. Bed was very comfy. Nice pillows 🫶

Simona was lovely. Always responsive and helpful! The place was beautiful and clean either everything you need for a wonderful stay in Orvieto.

Francesco was the perfect host very communicative and responsive when needed - the unit was spotless and nice decor - loved being in the little town walking to the 3 lively restaurants, grocery and coffee shop not to mention the fabulous vineyards that surrounded the flat - we did some wonderful walks and did side trips to cute little towns - Would recommend highly
