Stay: August 2017

such a privilege to stay in this beautiful house for two weeks- gorgeous pool and garden and fabulous area to sit out in the evenings- missing it greatly!!

We love Siena, Florence and Lucca and visited all three from the villa. We really enjoyed the pizza restaurant in the village- we went there on our first and last nights! La Poste in Florence is a great place to have lunch on a day out. When the restaurant was shut one night we popped to Bar Pizza Valerie in luco de Muggelo for takeaways which was perfect. We visited Siena for one of the trial run horse races before the Palio- the atmosphere was incredible- our 14 year old son wants to return for the real thing! We have been to it years ago and the memory will never leave us- brilliant!

Wunderschönes Haus, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und top ausgestattet. Die Küche ist gross und es hat wirklich alles, was man zum Kochen benötigt. Auch der Garten mit dem Pool ist sehr schön und gepflegt. Wir können das Haus nur weiterempfehlen.

Beautiful interior and exterior, this villa was extremely well equipped, especially the kitchen. The house keeper cooked a wonderful 4 course meal for us as well as providing a birthday cake to help celebrate two birthdays in our family group.
The swimming pool and gardens are spacious with plenty of shade, remember to where mosquito repellent in the evenings. More than a home from home (but in Tuscany!) this villa accommodated a large family group very well.

Excellent location for visiting Frorence, we took the local train into the centre of Florence. The local restaurant in Grezzano is a short walk away and a good menu choice of excellent pizzas, pasta and traditional Italian foods. Busy on a Sunday evening with local Italians. We also visited the town of Poppi, a beautiful castle on a hill with great views.

Stay: July 2016

We had a wonderful week at this lovely villa. Everyone (10 adults had comfortable sleeping accommodation) and enjoyed use of all the facilities. Only problems were the biting insects and the distance to the nearest shop.
Would definitely recommend this villa to my friends.

The lake, Lago di Bilancino, is a lovely to spot to visit. We went twice. Very reasonable restaurant and hired peddle boats and kayaks. Near by restaurant La Bottega was very tasty and reasonable prices.Florence recommended - I have been 4 times but never tire of the amazing architecture and art.

OWNER COMMENT: There is a very good small local supermarket in Luco de Mugello which is 2.5km away. It would cater for all your needs, together with the local butcher, which is also in Luco

Wir haben einen Ort der Ruhe und Entspannung gefunden! Auch mit 9 Personen bietet das Haus und der große Garten genug Rückzugs- und Ruhemöglichkeiten für jeden.
Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Das Haus ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, von den Bildern bis zu den kleinsten Dekoartikeln. Wir haben uns alle rundum wohl gefühlt und werden wieder kommen!

- ein Besuch der Rennstrecke in Luca di Mugello, wir hatten Glück es war freier Eintritt, Training, vorallem für die Männer ein Erlebnis - Pizzeria I Corbezzolo in Borgo San Lorenzo und das Ristorante La Bottega im Ort, zu Fuß zu erreichen - die Marcelleria (Fleischerei) im Ort, super Bistecca zum grillen, frisch

Tolles Haus mit 1A Ausstattung( Sehr hochwertig). Wenn Fragen und Probleme auftreten, ist immer jemand vor Ort zu erreichen. Mal war ein Sonnenschirm defekt, und es kam am selben Tag sofort jemand vorbei zum reparieren. Mal fehlte eine Reinigungsbürste für den Grill. Diese wurde sofort neu besorgt und vorbei gebracht. Sehr zu empfehlen. Das Haus ist jeden Cent wert...Es hat wirklich alles was das Herz begehrt.

Ausflug nach Florenz, Pisa, Borg San Lorenzo. Das Restaurant in dem Dorf vor Ort hat sehr leckere selber gemachte Nudelgerichte und Pizzen.

Très belle maison et coin superbe. Par contre, la chambre du rez-de-chaussée est assez humide. Les tapis, coussins et canapés en tissus étaient très poussiéreux.

Si vous voulez manger local, nous vous conseillons d'aller à La Casa del Prosciutto à Vicchio.

The owner was sorry to hear the cleanliness was not as it should have been on your arrival. They have taken steps and added extra cleaning each week to avoid further problems and expanded the cleaning checklist so that nothing gets missed. The importance of thorough and comprehensive cleaning is very important to them. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Rustige ligging, prachtig ingericht huis, veel ruimte, mooie slaapkamers en badkamers. Goed uitgeruste keuken. Groot zwembad, mooie tuin, veel parkeerruimte, leuke buitenplaats onder afdak.
Bij aankomst was het niet geheel schoon. Kan ook haast niet omdat de housekeeper zo'n groot huis haast niet kan schoonmaken in een paar uur tijd. Het was overigens niet een onoverkomelijk probleem.

Geen restaurants in de buurt bezocht. Wel Florence en Pistoia; aanraders.
