Reviews
We all had a wonderful time. We loved the villa and all of the farmhouse units. Our guests also had a fabulous time. Staff was very helpful and accommodating and we have no complaints.
They helped with meals, shopping and teaching us how to do Tuscan cooking and we enjoyed going to Florence, Siena, etc. for day trips. We would definitely recommend all of these properties to friends as the location was perfect and the countryside around them was so peaceful.
Next time we come, we will probably try to come when we can use the pool!
Thanks again for all you assistance,
Pat
This home was all we could have wanted and more. My
husband and I decided not to have a big party for our wedding
celebration and decided in stead to invite friends and family to
join us in Tuscany. 12 people stayed very comfortably
The reception and all the people at the villa were
delightful. Whatever we needed, they were extremely accommodating.
From extra rooms at nearby property, to extra pillows, whatever you
wished for was provided.
The villa has a wonderful layout, the bedrooms and baths are lovely as are the living rooms, and dining area The kitchens (yes kitchens) were reasonably equipped. It is immaculate. It has every convenience including great WiFi.
The pool, gardens and outdoor spaces are well kept and the views are delightful.
It is very convenient to get to the autostrada to Florence and the whole of Tuscany. The back roads to local villages like San Casciano and San Donato are also magical. Nobody intruded on us our entire 2 week stay unless we asked. We understand we may have set a record in glass recycling with the wine consumption but ... hey we were well behaved otherwise. And the local wines were also quite delis.
We would go back in a heartbeat! Special thanks to our friends at estate and farm Recepiton for putting up with all of our arrangements. Thank you, thank you!
