Great holiday!

Perfect apartment in beautiful location. Stunning pool with vieews across to Volterra. Minor problem with the plumbing that was sorted out immediately. Apartment is bigger than the photos suggest - the ceiling is at least 10 feet high. Aparfment very well equipped.

Clean, beautiful property with beautiful views from the terrace & amazing pool

The apartment was ideal for two, in a beautiful, peaceful location. My daughter and I had a wonderfully relaxing time. We spent much of our time beside & in the lovely swimming pool. The apartment is also a good base for visiting local towns and villages from. Galina was very helpful and provided good information about the local area. Thank You! One day I would hope to return .

We weren't quite sure what to expect but when we arrived we found Il fico and its position charming.

Il Fico well equipped - air con a bonus - views stunning, very quiet and the shady bower much appreciated. Our hosts and their friend who welcomed us were helpful - especially when there was a power cut. We were able to explore some of the lesser(but no less lovely ) places nearby- Certaldo well worth a visit. Pool was a delight, especially to sit by at night. We could also have sat on our doorstep all day watching the butterflies and bees on the lavender. Interesting to see the hummingbird hawkmoth. We would recommend Il Mummiala without hesitation to the more discerning of our friends .

We live in Tuscany

Why they chose this property

The place where our home is a really pearl in Tuscany.
We love all Tuskany but when we found tis place, we realized that this is the best from what we have seen before. We bought 2 appartments an now we are happy to share our joy real Tuscany with our guests

What makes this property unique

Our appartment is in a real ancient village accurate with love rebuilt in details from ruins. Appartment made in Tuscan style which we love. And all this combined with a comfortable modern equipment. For example there is excellent morden-equipped pool in borgo but it designed as a pease of large lake.

It very attractive for us that our Casa is placed among wildlife area. We like that the air is filled with the scent of flowers herbs. And we very like absolute silence at night which can be broken only by sounds of nature.

When we stay we travel a lot around by car because there are many interesting places are not far from us.
We really get each time full relax hear combined with new impressions.
