It was the perfect vacation! Beautiful place in the countryside, ideal for relaxing and a short drive to Scandicci for supplies. The host was informative and had the place well stocked. 5Iwoulstrongly re
Loved this beautiful and peaceful villa. Easy to find and owner’s som met us for check in and check out. A very nice young nan and the villa had every amenity for our comfort.
The place is exactly as described. Shirley was extremely helpful and very accommodating. .
If we come back to Florence, we’ll most certainly try to stay in this same property. What a fabulous experience this was for us, thank you Shirley!
Amazing experience, great location, nicely renovated and fully equipped apartment
Place: this amazing apartment is located in typical Tuscany countryside with olive and cypress trees just few minutes by car from Florencia center. Totally romantic and quite place.
Apartment: Despite of fact that the apartment is part of the bigger house, we had really maximal privacy there with own amazing garden, small pool and own entrance into the apartment. Fully equipped and clean, nicely renovated.
Communication with the owner: very prompt, nice and careful person.
If you would like to spend holidays in typical Tuscany nature very close to the Florence, I fully recommend this place.
2nd visit to this gorgeous location. Far enough from the city to feel the peace and solitude. Near enough to be slap bang in the centre of one of the most romantic and historic cities of the world. We are hooked! The owner is a star and her mantra is "my guests are treated as royalty"

Fabulous Tuscan farmhouse apartment with beautiful garden in idylic location.
You could easily move in and call this wonderful apartment your home without spending another penny. Every possible facility is catered for, from fully equipped kitchen to outdoor cooking under a Tuscan sun.
Clean, quiet and comfortable are just three standout virtues of this lovely holiday property. Shirley, the owner, was welcoming, helpful and full of recommendations for eateries and places of interest to make our visit to Florence and the surrounding area a brilliant holiday experience.
Would definitely return if holidaying in the area again.
