Casa carina ma fredda e buia
La casa che ho prenotata è graziosa, ben arredata in stile rustico tipico della zona. La zona giorno è ben organizzata e abbastanza spaziosa. La camera da letto con un letto matrimoniale e 2 letti singoli è molto grande e il bagno è molto piccolo. Tutte le finestre sono poste in basso, pertanto la casa risulta buia, anche di giorno. La pulizia è approssimativa in ogni ambiente. Purtroppo mi è capitato un tempo piovoso e piuttosto freddo per la stagione. Dopo tre giorni al freddo, ho chiesto al proprietario quale soluzione proponeva, visto che il caminetto fumava Mi è stato propoto un altra casa, molto più piccola, ma con una pompa di calore. Ero ormai raffreddata, con una brutta tosse. Non mi sembrava di avere scelta - ho quindi accettato il cambio. La casetta è buia, poiché solo una porta-finestra con accanto una finestrella. La camera e il bagno sono ciechi. Insomma dopo 3 giorni si è già stufi di stare in questo minuscolo open space senza connessione wifi. Dimenticavo, nella prima casa non c'è il balcone visibile su una foto dell'annuncio - è il balcone della casa di fronte. Preciso che tra la casa prenotata e quella dove ho alloggiato perpompaproponesoluva

Ganz tolle Reise und ganz tolle Unterkunft
Der Aufenthalt war wirklich sehr schön. Sassetta liegt in einem idyllischen Dorf mit kleiner Infrastruktur. Es gibt ein paar Restaurants und ein paar Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Städte wie Bolgherie und Piombino sind nur ein Katzensprung. Die Wohnung selbst ist wunderschön und traditionell eingerichtet. Die Aussicht aus den Fenstern ist atemberaubend. Man hat wirklich alles, was man braucht. Sehr schön ist auch das Städtchen selbst. Der historische Ortskern ist so schön, dass er ein Reiseziel für viele Touristen nur zum anschauen ist. Die meisten Städte sind von dort aus gut über Land zu erreichen. So müssen keine Mautgebühren gezahlt werden. Wir waren jeden Tag am Meer und haben die Zeit sehr genossen. Natürlich haben wir auch Volterra besucht. Die Abwicklung war super einfach und der Gastgeber war unglaublich nett und zuvorkommend. Wir können diese Unterkunft bestens weiter empfehlen und werden sie sicherlich auch noch mal aufsuchen. Wir können nur Danke sagen.

Mitten in der Fußgängerzone
Sehr netter Vermieter, der uns jede Menge für Tipps für Restaurants und Strände in der Gegend geben konnte. Wir können zwar Italienisch aber der Vermieter konnte auch sehr gut Englisch. Bei uns war nach 2 Tagen die Gasflasche leer und der Vermieter hat nach unserem Anruf nach 20 Minuten schon für Ersatz gesorgt. Die Wohnung liegt mitten in der Fußgängerzone eines lebendigen kleinen Ortes. Das Auto kann man gut außerhalb des Zentrums parken. Hier gibt es auch mehrere Restaurants. Wir waren in August da und da gab es an einem Tag einen Kinoabend und an einem zweiten Abend ein Konzert auf dem zentralen Platz. Meer in 20 Minuten erreichbar. Sehr zu empfehlen auch das Fest in La Gabella, das immer Ende August stattfindet. Wir haben zu viert im großen Schlafzimmer geschlafen. Der Ort liegt auf etwa 330 Meter Höhe und damit war es für uns nie so heiß dass wir die vorhandene Klimaanlage einschalten hätten müssen. Für 4 Personen sehr gut geeignet. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen hier. Vielen Dank an den Vermieter!!!

Soggiorno in borgo storico
Siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti da questo soggiorno - l'appartamento in affitto è nel borgo storico di Sassetta, inerpicato sulle colline, in zona pedonale. Consta di un ambiente giorno con cucina più soggiorno, e di un'unica camera da letto con letto matrimoniale e due singoli molto ampia; entrambi gli ambienti sono mansardati, e nella zona notte ci sono alcune limitazioni di altezza (nella zona giorno no). L'accoglienza del proprietario è stata ottima, è una persona molto gentile. Sassetta è tutta arroccata sulle pendici del colle, è uno dei suoi pregi ma potrebbe diventare un problema se non trovate parcheggio: in tal caso sbarcate la famiglia in piazza e uscite un po' dal paese, ci sono vari slarghi sulla strada ed è assolutamente sicuro. Direi che la casa non è adatta per persone a ridotta mobilità o bimbi molto piccoli, vista la ripida stradina in cui è ubicata e le scale di accesso - per il resto mi sentirei di raccomandarla data la bellezza del posto e la comodità con cui si raggiungono vari siti interessanti.
