Tuscany is extraordinarily varied. There are the long blue hills of the Maremma in the south, flowing down to the plains and the sea; or the strange faded clays of the Crete Senesi, punctuated dramatically by dark stands of cypress and umbrella pine. Then there is the Mugello, a place, in December, of clear, glowing skies periodically brushed by veils... More

We stayed five days here. Needless to say, five days is not enough. It feels like home here and it makes you wanna stay here much longer. Since first second you arrive to Rostolena hills it feels like a fairytale. Looks like you get into some magic country of mountains, valleys, olive groves, never repeating shades of green. And it...

We stayed at this beautiful countryside location for a week in July, 2011. We loved every bit of it; beautiful and relaxing surroundings, stunning scenery, clean and nice apartment and lovely hosts. Nearby towns, Vicchio and Borgo San Lorenzo provide all essentials from grocery shopping to nice restaurants. In addition, they are genuine Italian towns without tourist hordes.

Wonderful little place with a magnificent view. Caterina and Riccardo were excellent hosts. Very warm and friendly. Spoke good English and made us feel very welcome. Caterina and Gabriella made breakfasts for us every morning. The breakfasts were very fresh and substantial. The farmhouse was beautiful and the views were breathtaking. It really was beautiful as shown in the pictures.... More

The appartment is very nice with a beautiful view on the surrounding area. It was well equipped. Furthermore the fattoria has a very nice pool with beds and seats. Next to that there is a patio and a veranda... More

During our two weeks holiday in Tuscany and Liguria, Italy, our experience at Fattoria I Ricci was simply great! Great hosts, beautiful environment, amazing views, lovely people and all round courtesy. The swimming pool was really fantastic, with clean and fantastic surroundings all covered with plants and flowers. We stayed at La Casina, cottage in the grounds, close to the... More

We traveled to Italy during September 2010 and stayed at Fattoria I Ricci for 4 days (in the Leccino apartment). I can honestly say that those 4 days were some of the best, most relaxing days we've ever spent anywhere. Riccardo and Catarina are excellent hosts. Catarina's cooking classes (and the resulting food) was brilliant. And I can't think of... More
