What a beautiful villa and location in the Tuscan countryside.
Very comfortable villa as shown in the pictures with great space for large group of friends or family. The on site hosts do a wonderful job accommodating your needs and are so friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to help us and make us feel at home. The food and meals prepared by Marabella were wonderful and we enjoyed several dinners while we were there.
Unfortunately, the weather was not great so we were not able to enjoy the outdoor spaces as much as we would have liked.
Bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and clean.
The location is very much away from the main cities and roads. If you are looking to "get away" this is the spot for you. We were taking several day trips to various areas in Tuscany so the distance and remote nature made it a little difficult to easily get in and out of the property. FYI - some USA nav. systems did not work.
Overall, a great adventure and we were very happy to have stayed. -
Fantastic
Rafael and Marinella are fantastic and lovely people who made all your wishes come true;-)
