Our Italian Home
Submitted: April 16, 2009
Stayed: September 2008
Since 1996 and last stayed in 2007. we have been coming here for at least part of our main holiday (only missing 2 years) When we started we had young family members, now all grown and left the nest, and we all look on this as a home from home. We have always been made most welcom and especally Monica and Roberto (I am convinced if a Martian arrived - Monica would speak perfect Martian within the week) who prepare such wonderful food. The only downside is you do need a car to make the most of your time here, but apart from that we cannot think of anywhere better to go. If you have a young family they will enjoy the pool and swings, etc Teenagers can sit by the pool and look moody, as only teenagers can(but in their honest moments admit that they are enjoying themselves) and as for Adults the food the wine, the art, the history, the wine, the food, the people, and did I mention the wine. In San Giminiarno (a UNESCO World Heritage site) you will find the BEST ice cream in the world - I have decided that when I die and go to heaven - if its like Tuscany OK, if not I will ask to be rerouted to Tuscany and Le Pianore - We are looking to coming back this June with friends, incidentally did I mention the food and the wine
