Hi Lisa,
I just wanted to send a quick email to let you know that we had a fantastic time at the Villa.
If we were going to Chianti again, it would definitely be our no1 choice of place to stay.
It was perfect and met all our requirements...and Castellina is so beautiful. We had the 'best ever holiday' and the Villa and its surrounds we such a big part of that.
Thank you for all your help and we look forward to using your services again.
Kind Regards

Hi Dympna,
We had a positive experience, I would recommend To Tuscany to friends.
I really appreciated the in depth notes, from recommendations to new driving laws in Italy.
Also, the opportunity to have some staples available at the villa, however, I feel some of those things should be provided, particularly toilet paper and soap. It's such a small expence yet a huge inconvenence not to have available.
We loved the villa and the view was incredible, although a bit of a drive everyday back up the mountain. The dirt road of a mile and a half took a good 10 min. This road should be graded
(a minimal cost) if the villa is going to be rented to guests.
I would also sugest putting some kind of shower curtain or enclosure in the second bathroom as it is not usable as it is.
The owner needs to put some kind of marker at the dirt road to distinguish it from other roads with a garbage dumpster and a mirror. There were about three.
Overall, it was a good experience.

We were very happy indeed with the villa and its facilities. It very much had the feel of a home, and we appreciated that it had an excellent range of kitchen/china/glass ware etc. The location of the villa was stunning, with wonderful views from the garden and terraces and the
swimming pool was very good. The owner was also helpful and friendly.
The only slight drawback for 7/8 adults was that the bedrooms varied quite a lot in size (which can make it a bit difficult if everyone is making the same financial contribution). There are 2 excellent double bedrooms, one small double, and one room which is really only suitable for one person, so it would not be possible to sleep 8 adults.
Castillina was a good centre for shops and there are also some excellent restaurants in the area.
Overall we had a very good holiday and thanks for your assistance in making the arrangements
Best wishes

[Our comment: Since Judith stayed in the villa there has been an extra bedroom added, the villa can comfortably sleep 9 adults, however the bedroom sizes do vary]

I went on holiday with my family and we range from 60 years to 2 years so finding a villa to suit all our needs was proving to be quite tricky. When I found your website I just felt a sense of relief

I can't be more pleased with the service To-Tuscany provided. Dick Calabro was especially helpful answering all of my pre-trip questions in a most helpful and timely fashion.

I like To Tuscany, partly because it has a tremendous range of villas, and partly because (unlike many companies) it has an excellent website that provides what you really want when choosing a villa.

Our accommodation, which cost less than £800 for the week, is in a converted stone farmhouse next to a 12th Century Franciscan chapel. There is a pergola shaded by vines round the back here we quickly settle into a rhythm of eating long pasta suppers while the shadows lengthen.
