We stayed at Tenuta Placella for 10days and rented the entire villa (6 adults and 3 children in our group). The outside of the villa is truly spectacular. The pool is huge for a villa, it is almost like a resort/hotel size. There are shallow areas for the kids and plenty of sun beds. It's surrounded by olive trees in a wonderful setting. The BBQ area is great with a large table outside to eat - but bring mosquito spray! We did the pizza night and the private chef. The pizza night I cannot recommend enough. Great value for money and they were delicious. Considering the great restaurants in nearby towns we ate at during our stay, the private chef didn't quite live up to expectations. If your priority is to find a villa with the best outside space possible this is definitely the place for you. The inside is a bit dated and probably needs some investment. With regard to Pino, he is an exceptional host. Any problems we had, he was on the doorstep quickly to try and resolve them.
