My mum and I fell in love with Settignano, all thanks to Alessandro and Nicoletta! Alessandro and Nicoletta's home is the perfect Tuscan experience, a beautiful, comfortable home with an amazing view of the hills, just 20min bus ride from the hustle and bustle of Florence city. It was very easy to commute and enjoy the art, history and culture of Florence city, and it was even better coming home to the quiet green hills and rosy sunset of Settignano. Despite our language barrier, Alessandro was always checking on us to make us feel at home, my mum and I felt like we were staying with family. If you stay with Alessandro and Nicoletta, you will not only have a wonderful stay but also make friends for life and want to stay in Settignano forever. I also recommend that you explore the tiny village of Settignano and make a day trip walking to Fiesole (about 2 hours at leisurely pace) - walking through the Tuscan hills covered with olive and cypress trees, colourful wild flowers and narrow streets lined with beautiful Italian villas, you will be rewarded with amazing unhindered views of Florence! Thank you Alessandro, you made our trip so memorable!!
