If you are visiting Florence and want the real Tuscan experience look no further and book this property quickly before someone else snaps it up. You will not be disappointed. We stayed as a family of four (two teenagers) and had heaps of personal space. The accomodation is virtually a house and is very private with your own entrance and the car is park right near the door.
I really loved the ambience around us and the views from our bedroom were of Tuscany with farm buildings, vineyards, olive trees, a church and little stone walled roads. Read Kevin's review as he has described this place perfectly.
We had our own car but on the day we went into Florence we caught the bus from Galluzzo. It was very easy and saved us from worrying about parking. We walked into the bus stop just for the experience of strolling through a Tuscan countryside and it was an easy couple of KMs but you can leave your car close to the bus stop for free.
Sienna and San Gimignano are an easy drive and well worth a visit.
Around the property is a vineyard and olive grove to wander around and plenty of shady trees to drink wine under while enjoying the spectacular countryside below. You'll hear the ring of nearby church bells and birds singing.
Communicating with Filippo was very easy but unfortunately we did not get to meet him as he was away during our visit. But his parents Claudia and Antonio were magnificent hosts. We enjoyed their company and their hospitality.
We have already decided to come back to Tuscany because of our experience in this property and we plan to stay here much longer next time (maybe leaving the teenage children at home next).
