There is only one word to describe La Casa di Piero and that is SPELLBINDING!!
Upon arrival Stefano happily recommended 3 vineyards to visit and also where to find parking nearest to the Porto Romano main wall entry into the old part of Florence (c/w written directions and road map) He then introduced us to his beautiful mother Carla who settled us in and told us about some other wonderful sites to see.
Their longtime family villa (42 years) is so spectacular in the truest Italian sense of the word. From its tranquil hillside settling, to its grand sitting room and spacious bedrooms (all of which are decorated in a classy, warm and welcoming way) my wife & I can still not quite believe we found this little piece of heaven to enjoy!
The misty morning sunrises provided us a picture perfect view of the surrounding orchards & villas!
To top things off, Carla's breakfasts were above and beyond anything we ever expected and were made even more memorable by the
breakfast table setting right in front of the large sunlit windows!
The only issue we had was that our stay was way to short!!
Thank you Stefano, Nico and especially Carla for sharing your beautiful home and providing us an unforgettable memory!
We will definitely be telling everyone we know exactly where to stay if they are ever visiting Florence.
That place is La Casa di Piero!!
