Hi Linda,
We have just returned home from our 3 month tour through Europe and had to let you know what a great time we had in Tuscany and the excellent Villa we found through "To Tuscany".
 We had two exceptional weeks at Villa Nonno Tonio in Mercatale Val di Pesa, just south of florence. The Villa was beyond all our expectations. Big, fully equipped and located on a hillside midst vineyards and olive groves. On our arrival at the Bar Italia to collect the keys and be taken to the villa, we were greeted like long lost relatives. Every one we met in Mercatale during our stay was very helpful and friendly - even though only a few spoke english. 
The owners of the villa took us out and provided a thorough explanation and demonstration of where and how everything worked. The villa was spotless. They also provided a gift welcome package with the basic essentials for a couple of days.  For our three days visiting Florence, we parked our car in a free car park in Mercatale and caught the local bus that took a hassle free 30 min trip into central Florence and back.  Mercatale also proved to be a excellent location to visit many Tuscan Attractions, from Pisa and Lucca in the  north, Siena in the South, San Gimignano in the West and Arezzo and Anghiari in the East.
 Thank you for excellent service and information you provided to make this an exceptional holiday.

Overall impression: Nonno Tonio was beautiful. When we arrived in the late afternoon, the vistas from the grounds were breathtaking. The house was well-equipped, comfortable. The vast windows in the great room meant the house was full of light by day and the sunsets were spectacular.
Highlights: The proximity of Nonno Tonio to Florence, Sienna, a number of wonderful wineries, Greve meant that we had wonderful day trips. We returned each evening to Nonno Tonio to cook meals and enjoy Italian wine.
Everyone we met was friendly and warm. The weather was perfect. The owner and her daughter-in-law, Mariarosa, were gracious, wonderful hosts.
Unpleasant surprises: No. We had a near-perfect holiday.
