A wonderful place just outside the city of Florence. Just like in the pictures. We walked into town- there are many beautiful paths to discover. We didn´t get to mountain biking, but this would be the ideal place. Sunsets on the roof terrace were a highlight, as well as doing yoga in the morning underneath the olive trees.
And yes, this place IS hard to find when you first arrive but we got to meet many friendly and helpful neighbours ;)
Taxi fare from the airport was around 30€, taxi to the city center 15-20€. Alex and Diane offer to get some basic food for an extra 50€. It was well worth having it, since everything else had to be carried up the hill from Florence. Also it stopped us from having to run out first thing next morning.
Alex and Diane are wonderful hosts! Really the friendliest people you could imagine. We were really impressed and felt very welcomed. Thank you and: we will be back!! :)
