We stopped 2 nights on a driving holiday of Italy mixing cities and rural retreats. It was so wonderful to relax, read our books and drink Chianti. We used it as a base through the day it was easy to reach Pisa, Lucca, Florence, and many other breathtaking places. I had never been to Italy before but I'll be a regular visitor now. And I'll definitely be stopping at the Medioevale. The family are great. The rooms comfortable and the whole experience so relaxing. A must do.

It was the second time that we spent a couple of days at Casa Medioevale and definitely not the last time. La Casa Medioevale is a wonderful Finca which is located in the charming vineyards, olive tree plantations and hills in the heart of the Tuscany. The beautiful garden, the refreshing salty pool, the cosy room, our exhausting morning run everyday and the great view from the little church on top of the hill ... we fully enjoyed our stay, it was just amazing! Particularly the breakfast was a highlight and not to forget your great hospitality! We just felt like home! Grazie mille, Filo and see you soon!

“Not so bad not so good”

The Hause is nice but i do not reccommend: First of all the breakfast very very bad, very poor choise, only industrial products ( except a pan cake); The hot water in the room was not warm anought; There is no topper on the mattress

The B&B is located in the hills of Lamporecchio. It has some great views and a lovely garden. The hostess is a very friendly lady that will answer your every question and try to help where possible. The property is a completely renovated old hillside villa., renovated with the old medievil look intact. Even the light switches have a sort of vintage to it, very nicely done. The rooms are nicely decorated in complete vintage medievil style. The rooms were spacious enough. Lamporecchio itself doesn't have that much to offer, but you are centrally located to visit Pisa, Florence, Lucca and some other great towns. Now for the less good: Breakfast: There are a lot of reviews online prasing the breakfast. And we booked this accomodation thinking the breakfast would be of a very high standard. Unfortunately the breakfast was adequate at best. It was really not on par with other B&B's or Hotels we had visited during our stay in Italy. I would rather describe it as very basic. The breakfast consisted of one type of bread, which could be toasted. There was cheese, ham, two types of marmelade, yoghurt and some juices. And an omelet which would be made at the start of breakfast and then just placed on a plate at the buffet (You can imagine about 10 minutes later the omelet would not be very warm anymore). Also the marmelades would be placed on the tables, without any lid on the little pots. This resulted in us sharing this marmelade with multiple wasps... By the second morning we covered them with a napkin, to try and remedy the issue. Rooms: First off, internet didn't work in our room (same story at the pool). As I'm in IT myself it's always sad to see a completely renovated property that lacks basic network capabilities. But fortunately for us 4G roaming-costs are a thing of the past in Europe... Also, the airconditioning was really inadequate for the room. We set it to full throttle (18°C) a couple of times when we were away, which makes it very noisy. Upon returning, the room was barely cool (about 25°C, I'm guessing). It wasn't that the room was uncomfortably hot, but nonetheless, the unit seemed inadequate. There was also no fridge in the room, which we found annoying, as the airco didn't quite cool the place down, water-bottles would warm up quickly.. Unfortunately for us our mattress also had a medievil feel to it. Quite hard and very bouncy. I think they were in the process of renewing the matresses as we had a glimpse of the room next-door and they had the same bed with a completely different matress. With some minor adjustments, this place could reach that next level... So all in all (regardless of the small issues above) we had a pleasant stay at the B&B, which for us had the perfect location and some very stunning views.
