Was waren die Highlights Ihres Urlaubs? Die Umgebung und die vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten waren sehr beeindruckend. Besonders gut hat uns Lucca gefallen. Alle Leute waren sehr nett und zuvorkommend.
Wie war Ihr Gesamteindruck von der Unterbringung? Alles sauber und gepflegt. Nur das Bett für die zwei Kinder war etwas zu hart und unbequem.
Gab es unangenehme Überraschungen? Nein
Haben Sie andere Anmerkungen? Fanden alles sehr gut und auch unser Hund hat sich sehr wohl gefühlt.

Was waren die Highlights Ihres Urlaubs? Das tolle Wetter, die überraschend tolle Lage der FeWo, und der Ort Colle val d'Elsa!!!!!
Wie war Ihr Gesamteindruck von der Unterbringung? Der war in Ordnung. Für diese preisgünstige Unterbringung, war alles vorhanden, was wir benötigten... vielleicht hätte es etwas mehr Besteck sein dürfen... ;-)
Gab es unangenehme Überraschungen? Heizung fiel aus, bzw. lief durchgehend, machte nachts Lärm, nervig! Hatten dadurch hohen Verbrauch und folglich eine hohe Rechnung!! (70 Euro für 10 Tage!!!!) Der nette Vermieter hat sich zwar bemüht, das Problem zu beheben, dennoch ärgerten wir uns darüber...
Haben Sie andere Anmerkungen? Nö, wenn wir wieder nach Italien fahren würden, würden wir es bestimmt wieder über to toscana laufen lassen. Vielen Dank

What were the highlights of your holiday? Just being able to relax and enjoy the breathtaking views.
what was your overall impression of the accommodation? Lovely - more than we had expected. Paglia's upstairs was very roomy however the downstairs TV area was a little small for the 4 of us when it wasn't hot enough to sit outside. Pietra was gorgeous for the two of us.
Did you have any unpleasant surprises? Only that on the 2nd week, we were woken by the noisy gardners mowing and strimming at 7.45 am to midday for our last 4 mornings. They seemed to take an awful long time to do the mowing!!!
Do you have any other comments? We had very nice 'neighbours' throughout the holiday and we would definately consider using To Tuscany when we next book a holiday in Italy. Mauritzio was very helpful and it made me feel safe knowing that we could call him at anytime if we had an emergency.

Thank you. We are very pleased with the service in To-Tuscany. The websites is very honest to the places and give you a Good indication about the locations. This time it was a very elegant place, just enough for the two of us. The owner spoke exellent english and was very helpfull. The pool and surroundings was perfect and the huge garden in exellent shape. All in all it was more than you can expect and for a fair price.
We feel now that we know our way around and we dont use so much time not finding our way. We managed to visit two wine festivals (Greve and Panzano) We went to Montalcino and bought a couple of Brunellos and one day we visited Isole e Olena for tasting. Perfect.
We are now looking into another place to hire for next year (If the websites is as correct as before we think about Fieline de Villole)But mind you, we could easily og back to Pietra or Molino the Rogante

overall impression: Very good. It exceeded what i’d seen online. It was spacious, clean, comfortable, quiet, everything we wanted. However, i wouldn’t have wanted to have slept in the windowless small second bedroom if there had been three of us. It was a perfect size for the two of us, and we could use the second bedroom as a store room.
highlights: Whilst we were staying at the Villa: we enjoyed our proximity to Siena and San G, as well as Florence. We found you could access the cities/towns so easily, but also the beautiful chianti countryside, either towards radda, or more locally. We loved the pool and its quiet location, and sitting watching the sunset outside the villa - wonderfully relaxing. Having had a week touring round in hotels, we found the villa the perfect antidote, it exceeded my (high) expectations, and we had a wonderful week. Thanks again.
unpleasant surprises: None... we just struggle with Italian opening times, no matter what we do, we always seemed to arrive at places when they were shut! Part of the charm of the holiday/italy though!

Excellent, very clean and the modern utilities made the holiday very relaxing.
The attention to detail in the construction of the apartment, and the excellent guide produced by Sean (invaluable for restaurants). The picturesque yet tranquil surrounding countryside needs no words.(excellent)
Thanks again for such a wonderful break, we really did get to see and experience the real Italy.

Fabulous location, beautiful villa, wonderful escape from it all. Exactly what we had hoped for but didn't believe we would get due to lateness of booking.
Peace and quiet. It was truly away from it all - if we had stayed in the villa and its surrounding area we would barely have seen another English person, which was perfect. At the same time the villa was excellently located for exploring some of the must-see parts of the region - Florence, Siena and San Giminagno all within 15 minutes drive.
The local village, Sant Appiano, was beautiful, producing a delicious Chianti and serving wonderful local cuisine at Il Pipolino.
