Was waren die Highlights Ihres Urlaubs? Der Pool, die Landschaft, die schön eingerichteten Zimmer - wir waren 14 Personen von 5 bis 62 Jahre - und alle waren voll begeistert!
Wie war Ihr Gesamteindruck von der Unterbringung? Super: Die Fotos und die Beschreibung wurden weit übertroffen!
Gab es unangenehme Überraschungen? Kleinigkeiten: zum Beispiel der Hund der Besitzer, der oft frei kam und die Kleinen erschreckte; ein weitaus "größeres" Problem war, dass für all die Küchen nur eine Kaffemaschine zur Verfügung stand; aber das sind Peanuts!!!
Haben Sie andere Anmerkungen?

The dogs are large but friendly and the owner has made an area for them to now be kept. Clients are asked if they mind the dogs being around or if they prefer them to be kept behind the fence.

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.
