We stayed as a family of 10 and had a great time. The accommodation is definitely rustic and traditional. It won’t suit everyone but if you’re looking to get back to basics look no further! For us as an Australian family it could have cleaner and we ended up doing cleaning ourselves to make it more comfortable. The bed linen and towels are also ready for a refresh. The host was great and provided a good summary of the local area and sights. Arezzo is a lovely day out.

Very nice rustic villa

We stayed in the villa for 4 weeks in July 2016. Our group was three families with teenagers and young kids. The villa is very charming and has a old rustic interior. However there are modern amenities such as air-conditioning in all bedrooms. More important was the wifi which was working well despite the small glitch in the beginning. The hosts are very friendly and helpful with local sights and things to do. Our group highly recommends the villa for larger groups and families.

Charming Accommodation

Our host Maurizio, added quite a few extra layers of enjoyment to our stay. A brilliant host who went above and beyond to make our holiday truely memorable! We have invited him to come stay with us when he visits Australia. As for the farm house it’s self, an amazing experience to live like a true Italian. If you want to experience country life, I recommend La Rustica! Thank you Maurizio and Simonetta. ❤️

June/July 2025

There was 7 of us that stayed here at the end of June into July for 10 nights. This is better than the pictures show, the location was fantastic (you will ideally need a car to see Tuscany if not Arezzo train station has good links and is about 15 minute taxi journey away). The pool was a god send and better than we expected and is a really good size. The table tennis in the late afternoon shade provided good entertainment and house was fully equipped. Maurizio the host is an absolute gent, and was so helpful in helping us settle in and giving some great advice on places to go and places to eat. Would 100% recommend

Little slice of heaven

This property is located approx 5km from the beautiful town of Arezzo. There is a bus every hour, daily, from Tregozanno, where the property is actually located, to Arezzo. It is very rustic and in a beautiful setting. So relaxing. And, because it’s not right in town, the best of both worlds. There are no restaurants in Tregozanno but there is a great butcher and deli/mini market. There is also a pharmacy and bar! Maurizio, the owner lives next door and is the loveliest, most helpful human being you could ever wish to meet. We had a lovely time and highly recommend this property.

Wonderful

We came to Tregozzano from Lucca for the second week of our stay as we wanted to see more of Tuscany. Flatter than the hills in the north but just as lovely. We had a fantastic welcome from Maurizio who helped us find local wine, farm shop, butcher, and groceries etc. The house is very old and we loved it, especially as this is were he raised his family. We used the ground and first floors as there were just two of us. The pool is huge. We played table tennis every day and enjoyed sitting on the terrace. From Arezzo we branched out to Cortona, Lake Tresimino and Perugia and fell in love not only with the medieval towns but the countryside of Tuscany and Umbria. Many thanks to the family (Stephano and Lorenzo who we met) for sharing the villa with us. Dan & Susan

There is sometimes a fine line between rustic and dilapidated, but this property is definitely the latter. It is tired and dated, there is exposed wiring, the cot was broken, the fridge leaks water, the bathrooms are frankly grim and the aircon barely copes at maintaining 22 deg C. The house was the family home of the man who lives in a small part of the house. He can enter your part of the house whenever he wishes, and does so frequently and unannounced. It was his home, and feels like he has been relegated to the granny annexe but still misses his house. It could be a great property. It wouldn’t need much in the way of investment.The pool is lovely and large. It is an above ground pool (note the careful photography on the site that does not make this obvious). It is shallow, but apart from that provided lots of entertainment.The location is great and Arezzo is a lovely town and you are within an hour of Sienna, Florence and a bit further to many other famous destinations.

Le foto di tutto l’immobile sono davvero datate e di confortevole non c’è davvero nulla.Il proprietario vive praticamente attaccato alla villa e non nelle vicinanze, di conseguenza spesso viene a fare visita all’interno della proprietà senza preavviso.Molto grande il giardino,ma inutilizzabile in quanto non curato.La piscina non è interrata e dalle foto inganna la prospettiva, kmq grande e bella.Intonaco che si stacca nella maggior parte delle pareti e quando piove ci sono infiltrazioni di acqua da porte e finestre.All’interno l’arredamento è molto vecchio e purtroppo molto sporco e pieno di ragnatele e ragni.Bagni impraticabili, purtroppo ci siamo dovuti munire di candeggina per lavarli, inoltre Abbiamo trovato un intero set di unghie tagliate sul pavimento.Stoviglie?! Sì…sporche in lavastoviglie.Dopo aver fatto presente al proprietario della “non pulizia” ha provveduto con una bottiglia di prosecco. Serviva solo che qualcuno venisse a pulire.Non è di sicuro una casa che è stata pulita da un’agenzia di pulizie ma piuttosto un fai da te.Peccato perché la vacanza dovrebbe essere un momento rilassante e riposante.Posizione a 10 minuti da Arezzo che è una bella città.La casa ha un buon potenziale ma andrebbe gestita in maniera migliore.Avrebbe sicuramente necessità di una buona manutenzione.

Sehr freundlicher und zuvorkommender Besitzer, den man immer konsultieren könnte, da dieser auch direkt neben dem Grundstück wohnt, aber nicht stört, im Gegenteil, er war immer sehr hilfsbereit. Der Pool war super sauber und groß und wirklich ein Traum. Unter uns war ein Milbenallergiker und dieser hatte keinerlei Probleme. Wie die Beschreibung schon sagt ist es ein altes Bauernhaus und dementsprechend schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Trotzdem war der Wasserdruck in den duschen fantastisch. Der Herd und Ofen waren modern und die Küche war beim Eintreffen in dem Haus geputzt und wirklich sauber. Das WLAN hat auch super funktioniert. Landschaftlich ist die Umgebung wunderschön, die Bushaltestelle ist 2min entfernt, genauso wie ein kleiner Laden und ein Metzger. Es gibt genug Sitzgelegenheiten für eine grosse Anzahl an Leuten.

Charmantes Landhaus

Wir wurden vom Besitzer des Anwesens sehr herzlich begrüßt und eingewiesen. Das Haus ist mit vielen antiken Möbeln sehr passend eingerichtet und hat unseren Familien (6 Erwachsene 1Kind) ausreichend Platz geboten. Auch der große Garten mit Pool hat uns viel Bewegungsfreiheit geboten und wir haben die Nähe zur schönen Stadt Arezzo genossen. Das Haus ist gut ausgestattet, hat Klimaanlage in den Schlafzimmern, könnte allerdings eine Renovierung gebrauchen.

En dejlig ferie

Huset er rummeligt og huser uden problem 8 personer med sine 4 badeværelser. Det ligger centralt for alle de interessante middelalderbyer. Der en kæmpegrund til huset og en dejlig pool, som vi benyttede og nød hver dag, da temperaturen rundede de 40 grader mens vi var der. Værten er fantastisk hjælpsom og venlig. Ved ankomsten fortalte han om alt hvad der var værd at se i omegnen, introducerede os til den nærliggende landsby samt anbefalede gode lokale restauranter. Stor tak til Mauritzio. Skal man nævne noget negativt, må det være de mange sultne myg, så husk myggespray. Men ellers kan det nærliggende farmacia hjælpe.

Wirklich schön aber mit Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten

Wir sind mit 6 Personen, mit Motorrädern angereist, und waren vom ersten Eindruck sehr begeistert. Die Begrüßung durch den Vermieter war sehr freundlich, wir wurden mit Getränken und Informationen empfangen. Die Lage der Villa in der Nähe von Arezzo ist wirklich gut. Relativ ruhig gelegen, man hört von der Straße so gut wie nichts. Der Pool mit 12 x 6 m ist sehr schön. Das Wasser ist im Juni schon tatsächlich 29 Grad warm. Allerdings könnte man drumherum noch einiges verbessern. Die die Villa ist wirklich schön, das Inventar allerdings schon ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen. Bemängelt wurden von uns die küchenmöbel . Der Vermieter sagte uns er würde diese erneuern. Das Dachgeschoss Zimmer sollten nur ganz kleine Leute benutzen, die Deckenhöhe ist doch sehr niedrig. Das Badezimmer ist im Erdgeschoss. dieses ist etwas unkomfortabel. Die andere schlafmöglichkeit er ist ohne Tür, bzw mit einer Galerie zum treppenhaus. Ein Zimmer ist wirklich schön mit einer Terrasse. Die Bilder auf der Homepage schönen einiges. Aber alles in allem haben wir uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Allerdings sind wir Biker und nicht so sehr pingelig. Die Villa insgesamt, Pool, Lage ist wirklich okay Punkt man kann dort eine schöne Zeit verbringen. Allerdings sollte wirklich in Zukunft etwas investiert werden.

Great Host!

Ideal if you're looking for a relaxing, secluded holiday. The property has a very nice pool with a huge garden / outdoor area. There's lots of sun chairs and patio furniture to sit all together or find a quiet spot. The outdoor BBQ is ideal and there's furniture to eat outdoors as well as simply relax. The garden is secluded and you can't see / hear beyond the property trees so it feels very private and secluded. The house itself is not modern so not recommended if you want all the latest appliances or something very upscale. It is basic. But on the up side, there's plenty of space and very clean. The WIFI does also work very good and the bedrooms have air conditioning. The owner is wonderful! He went out of his way to make sure we had a great time. He gave us a tour of the neighborhood and introduced us to all the local sights we wanted to see. He even gave us some of his home cooked food and wine! He was the most amazing host we've ever had!!! The house is about 10 minutes from downtown Arezzo and a main shopping area. There's also plenty of restaurants away from the city in quiet areas so you have options to choose from. Besides a breakfast bar, there's not too much within walking distance so a car is needed.

The Other Side of Toscano

We found Villa Rústica charming & well equipped. It was a great base for our time in Tuscany - and a quiet retreat to return to after the tourist crush of Firenze. Arezzo was a complete surprise, the perfect size for exploring with excellent shopping and food options. The owners were accommodating and gracious. We fell in love with Italy all over again.

Authentic Tuscan experience !!!!

Just finished spending 7 days at La Rustica in Nov 2018 . The 2500 words allowed for this review are not enough to convey the family memories we have created here that will last a lifetime. We had 7 family members staying at the facility and there was more than enough room all for us. The facility is wonderful and we felt as if we were living as Italians for the week. The purpose of our trip was to spend the American Thanksgiving holiday in Italy this year as our son was studying here for the semester. The hosts of La Rustica were beyond gracious in making our Thanksgiving dreams in Italy come true. It exceeded our expectations by far!!!! We hired a chef for Thanksgiving as mentioned on the website that was worth every euro. We were provided with a true Italian meal with only the best of local ingredients. Again a memory that will last a lifetime for our family. Centrally located, Old Town Arezzo is charming, many other local towns are easy to drive to and experience. A wine / food lovers paradise. We went in the winter so we did not have access to the pool and other outdoor facilities so I can only imagine how enjoyable those would be. We are already looking forward to going back in the spring or summer to visit. If you are looking for a true Tuscan experience this is the place for you, do not hesitate to book it now!!!!
