We are a family of five (with a 14, 12, 10 year old) and only had 2 full days and 3 nights to spend in Florence . We weren't sure if we should stay in the heart of the city to take advantage of every major tourist opportunity or stay just outside of the city to take a "break". We are so glad we decided on the later as it provided the perfect balance to our trip. The pictures accurately portray this Tuscan home but they can't do justice to the stunning countryside that surrounds it. The house is literally just a 10minute drive away from the city centre making it unbelievably convenient to both see the sites while easily being able to get away from it all and find respite in the countryside. In addition to all of this, Filippo was an outstanding host. He communicated in a timely way and was incredibly helpful in answering various questions we had about tourist sites. But more than that he is a genuinely kind, interesting and hospitable person and we really enjoyed chatting with him. This AirBnB was one of our top AirBnB experiences!
