The minute we arrived in front of the villa, we were greeted by Laura, who represented the owner, and she spoke English very well. She gave us a tour of the villa, and explained everything.
We enjoyed our stay a lot. The villa was beautiful, and everything was comfortable. Walking distance to small restaurants and coffee bar. The supermarket is about a mile away, so if you want to walk, don't carry too much stuff.
The villa had a strong Wi Fi and a washing mashine. A nice ironing board and iron that was very useful for the six of us, since we had been traveling for a week prior to coming to Florence at the villa.
The location of the villa is easy off and on to the major highway, and it was ideal to take tours to Cortona, San Gimignano, Montalcinno, Greve, Monte Fiorello, where we were surprised to find Amerigo Vespucci's family home. We drove to Cinque Terre, and visited the villages by boat. Then a whole day in Florence. It was a dream come true vacation. A villa in Tuscany!
The day we left, Laura met us, and checked the house again, and we left with promises to go back another year.
Simona, the owner was available by phone or e mail the entire time, and very helpfull. All six of us thank her very much!
