Lorenzo's country home is a perfect blend of Tuscan "country" and yet close enough to the city center. Beautiful old stone home setting with a private yard and gate. Unique and a bit quirky, but seriously interesting interior design and layout. Lorenzo was welcoming, helpful and generous in his greeting, explanations, and provision of amenities. We felt secure knowing that he was not far away and was committed to our comfort. Two bus stops are nearby, the C4 and 12/13. The Piazzale de Michaelangelo is reachable by Bus #13 (steps away across the street) and the return is by Bus #12. Bus #12 will also take you into the city center and the return is Bus #13. Though there is the noise from nearby street traffic and the occasional protective barks of neighbor dogs, the quality windows in both bedrooms successfully and amazingly block out most of it. In fact, we were able to get the most restful sleep in this lovely little country house and felt very cosy and comfortable. Lorenzo has a beautiful and comprehensive library, which kept us entertained and educated when it was pouring raining. We highly recommend Lorenzo's country home and is one of two of our favorite places. When we return to this side of Firenze, this home is at the top of our most comfortable, best location, best host and most unique place to stay.
