We spent several days at Mariella and Dante’s wonderful place Podere delle Cave, close to Firenze. My children love animals and when they discovered that they have over 200 animals at the Ranch they went crazy. Horses, goats, chicken, dogs and so on, we spent a lot of time with the animals and my kids also went riding and that... More

We found Podere Le Cave searching online for a Tuscan farmhouse that was central for day trips to Florence, Pisa, Volterra, San Gimignano and Siena, but we also wanted one with a pool and with horses for horseback riding. Podere Le Cave exceeded our expectations with their hospitality, incredibly beautiful location and their pet dog, Flash, who endeared himself to... More

Mariella and family were friendly, welcoming and very helpful hosts. The room was immaculate and had everything for our needs. The Olive farm itself is such a beautiful place to stay, amongst the rolling hills of Tuscany, that we wanted to stay there every day to soak up the peace and the quiet and the sheer beauty of the place,...

We stayed at Podere le Cave first time 6 years ago and were amazed by the idylic beauty of this Tuscany typical house and its splendid location, in the heart of an olive orchard, looking over Florence, which is only a few km away. It was great coming back to the beautifully set pool and to our private room and... More

This place was by far the most romantic of all our Italian stays. A little hard to find. The apartment was immaculate. Everything was pristine. All your needs were taken care of. Dante and Mariella were wonderful and her English perfect. We had a self catering breakfast outside under a huge umbrella, overlooking Florence. And the sunsets, oh my goodness!!.... More

The pool was very refreshing after a day out site seeing. The family running the B&B, Mariella and Dante are very friendly and helpful. The room we... More

We stayed here for 4 nights in the middle of our Italian roadtrip. After arriving from Venice, we were so happy to find this little idyllic house so close to Florence. It was July so the pool was perfect to come back to after battling the crowds in Florence and one day we didn't even leave! Its also well located... More

We had a wonderful three-night stay here. The pictures do not justify the beauty of this place! Located a 15 minute drive from Florence with a spectacular view. Nighttime by the pool with impressive lighting, view of the lights in Florence and pretty fireflies was great! Bus connection to Florence, but last bus back is at 8:30 PM so be... More
