Hey from Selma

Member since February 2024 | 2,688 hits
We are Selma and Marco and we choose to live here to create a place to have our best life and breed as well our horses. Me, Selma, I’m Genoa, I’ve worked during all my life as commercial for big industries, but I’ve ever dreamed to live this life, when it was possible, I left the city coming back to the origins of my ancestors.

Marco, originally from Bologna, travelled all over the world, first thanks to his competences about mechanics, giving his support in off-road races, and then, making his passion for horse in a job, today he is an hoof trimmer, he tooks his certification in Usa with PHCP association, and now he works in Italy and some times Europe.

Since we have Podere Orzale, we decided to use our home to create clinics about wellness, knowledge and care of the horse, using the support of his team of professionals and veterinaries.

Area hills
We are located on a hill, close to various points of interest such as the Vicars' Castle of Lari. In 30 minutes, you can reach Pisa and Livorno, in 40 minutes Volterra, and in 45 minutes Florence. We are also 10 minutes away from the Casciana Thermal Baths and 20 minutes from Pontedera and its train station. We are in the countryside, so we recommend reaching us by car or independently. There are many historical shops and wine producers in our surroundings, and it will be our pleasure to assist you in organizing your activities in the area.

We spent a few days at Podere Orzale and it was an experience that will stay in our hearts! Selma and Marco welcomed us as if we were family: kind, helpful, and always ready to chat. The room was clean, fresh, and equipped with everything needed to be comfortable. The breakfast was rich and delicious (one morning we even tasted a cake made by Selma: truly delightful!) and we were also able to enjoy an aperitif on the little balcony with a view that alone is worth the trip. What strikes the most is the passion with which Selma and Marco take care of the podere: every corner conveys love for nature and respect for the place where they live, an attention that makes the stay even more special. Thanks to their valuable advice, we discovered the surroundings at their best. Immersed in nature, among horses, dogs, and lots of tranquility, we found a perfect place where we will definitely return!

Respiri Toscana. An ideal place even for those who spend more days. The magic of the surrounding hills is unique, also close to places of cultural interest. Selma and Marco make the rest, they made us feel at home with impeccable service, clean rooms tastefully furnished, and a super breakfast with zero km local products. The ranch outside is spacious with horses in a pen and a training field. An ideal place for those who love being in nature and tranquility. We will definitely return.

Wonderful stay in Tuscany thanks to the hospitality and kindness of Selma's service. We really enjoyed our time in this establishment, and we will definitely return to spend more time and deepen our knowledge of the fantastic horses.

A corner of peace in Tuscany, immersed in greenery. In this place, I felt the warmth of a real home. The rooms are cared for in every detail (I loved Selma's embroidered sheets!) but above all, they immediately convey a sense of peace and familiarity, perhaps because Selma and her husband created them with their own hands, putting love and effort into it. The hosts are super hospitable and always attentive to every need. Upon my arrival, I found a genuine and delicious breakfast prepared with local products. Selma introduced me to her horses, which she cares for with passion. I have returned to the Podere several times and it is the ideal place to recharge if you want nature and a glass of wine in good company.

Grazie per tutto il tempo trascorso con noi, speriamo di vederti ancora e ancora! Per noi è bello sentire che gli ospiti si sentano a casa, in fin dei conti è l’essenza del podere, il motivo per cui ci piace condividere la nostra casa, affinché diventi un po’ anche la vostra

Room cleaning every 4 days. Breakfast was limited, only sweet, with bread, mini croissants, and packaged supermarket cake. Nice room, well furnished, still with some things to fix (e.g. hole in the room towards the terrace covered with a plastic bag, two light bulbs in the room with exposed wires). Very kind and helpful host.

Ci dispiace leggere recensioni negative, ma talvolta possono trasformarsi in opportunità, per tanto coglieremo l'occasione per descrivere accuratamente la nostra offerta. La pulizia della camera è descritta nelle condizioni, così come la colazione dolce a buffet all'italiana, che approfitto per descrivere in maniera dettagliata, così che possa essere utile ai prossimi avventori: caffè, caffè decaffeinato, the e tisane, latte e latte vegetale, burro, miele del nostro apicultore (abbiamo le arnie sul nostro terreno), marmellate e succhi diversi principalmente fatti da noi, torta, brioches con lievito madre, biscotti, fette biscottate, pane, cereali con e senza glutine, frutta fresca e secca, yogurt. le camere vengono pulite da me personalmente, la cura nella loro pulizia ed igienizzazione ad ogni cambio garantita. nel vostro caso avete chiesto di poter prenotare attività a cavallo e siete stati indirizzati a centri di fiducia, avete prenotato la vostra esperienza ed essendo venuti solo con pantaloni corti avete chiesto se potessimo prestarvi dei vestiti nostri, avete chiesto indicazioni per trekking ai quali avete rinunciato perchè le recensioni google indicavano la presenza di tafani nel bosco, avete chiesto una piscina nelle vicinanze e vi è stata prenotata. Le nostre camere sono interamente realizzate a mano, come sempre diciamo, qui tutto è tranne che perfetto, e, si ci piace aggiungere sempre dettagli nuovi, per cui si mancavano due applique, e ci spiace che in una stanza con terrazza privata, aria condizionata, bagno con vetrata sulla stanza con struttura in legno e porta scorrevole, fatte a mano anch'esse, abbiate notato solo i particolari mancanti. siamo un agriturismo, vendiamo pasti e bevande ma, avendo voi portato i pasti da casa vi abbiamo concesso l'uso delle nostre stoviglie, che dopo l'uso sono state lasciate nel salone senza essere pulite, il cambio biancheria aggiuntiva (la vostra permanenza era di due giorni) è stato offerto a seguito della vostra richiesta, ad un costo aggiuntivo, avete preferito non usufruire del servizio. Siamo un agriturismo gestito a livello familiare, e siamo abbastanza sicuri di aver descritto quale sia l'ambente che il cliente troverà al suo arrivo, grandi spazi verdi, allevamento di cavalli, ulivi, vista colline, semplicità, prodotti locali bio, e se lo vorrete, anche la nostra compagnia di fronte a un buon calice di vino. è un posto all'insegna della convivialità, non del servizio di tipo alberghiero.
