Beyond Expectations

5 of 5
Submitted: May 29, 2011 Stayed: May 2011
The so called "cottage" is the most wonderful, warm home any traveler could ask for. It was clean, roomy, well-equiped, well located for touring around Florence and surrounded by rose gardens. The highlight of this place is the hostess, she was so gracious, warm and friendly, bringing warm bread & jam on our 1st morning, roses for our table and making tour reservations. We did not want to leave. It is a steal at the prices charged.

A wonderful holiday home

We had a wonderful stay at this charming house. We (4 adults) had a lot of space, both inside the house as well as outside.
We have everything we needed and the family was very kind and helpful.
We'll definitely come back, if we decide to go to Florence again.

Out of Town Florence Villa

4 of 5
Submitted: October 5, 2008 Stayed: August 2008
A really lovely clean and comfortable place, friendly and helpful hosts. We initially had problems finding the property using public transport but after that we had no problems. The Restuarant on the opposite side of the road was ideal for the first couple of nights until we got our bearings and then started using the local village shops. Good Bus service stopping close to the villa. I would recommend this property to anyone providing they don't mind living a few kilometres outside Florence and relying on good public transport.We all look forward to returning to this villa in the future

Just like home

The owner was just great about helping us. It is close to a bus stop so you can be in down town florence in about less than 15mins.
The house looks just like the pictures and more.
It is well kept just an older house. The restaurant across the street is great so stop by if you get the time. The owner made my 40th birthday worth the trip that I will be back to stay with her again.
