Travellers Reviews

The approach to the tower is much rougher than 'unsealed road' suggests. Paolo was very thorough and helpful when introducing us to the property. ... We had a wonderful time. The children were enchanted by the tower itself, and the surrounding hillside. Likewise, the adults found the tower very conducive to conversation, contemplation, relaxation, and romance. The tower was in a secluded location, yet once outside the national park was convenient to many desirable destinations. Would have been helpful to have had brochures at the property describing local attractions and activities, stores and their hours - perhaps a guestbook ... Trash removal was not explained to us on checkin. We learned from the cleaning staff that we were responsible to remove the trash ourselves (to an unnamed location - the cleaning staff did not speak english). We were able to arrange with the cleaning staff to haul the trash for us (for a fee). ... Please emphasize the roughness of the road. Some stretches are more appropriate for off-road vehicles. clarify that 'internet connection' means telephone hookup, not internet service. ... A romantic italian hide-away, great for families.

The first three questions do not apply to Torre delle Cannelle. We called the owner from Talamone, and he led us to the property which is very remote and a 30 minute drive from the nearest town. No directions to the villa were provided online. We were very pleased with the villa, but I think that you should emphasize that getting to the villa requires a thirty minute drive over an unpaved mountain road that not all vehicles or drivers could manage. We had a large vehicle that made the drive sometimes hazardous. ... We met the caretaker for the first time on the day we left. I wish that we had met her on the first day of our stay. If we had known what a pleasant person she was, we would have asked her to come up and prepare us an authentic Italian meal, something that she said she would have been happy to do. (The owner gave us her telephone number, so we could have called her, if necessary.) ... The access road, as detailed above, should be more accurately described, mainly to protect yourselves. ... Spectacularly situated, remote, comfortable, beautiful, with abundant wildlife (we saw many wild boar, deer, a weasel, and hawks).
