We couldn’t help falling in love with both our host Francesca and her cottage. Francesca’s heartfelt thoughtfulness is apparent throughout the home from the comfortable bedding, well-stocked kitchen, and a very thorough local information guidebook that she personally made.
Her cottage is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The loft added a cozy and comfortable space which my kids loved.
Francesca was patient and accommodating to all our needs as we asked a variety of questions such as how to use the washer and which church provided services on Christmas Eve.
She not only greeted us in person but also saw us off before we left which gave us a lasting impression. Needless to say, she goes above and beyond to make you feel at home.
Her cottage is located in a nice residential area which is only a 5 minutes stroll to Piazzale Michelangelo and from there another 15 minutes down the stairs to San Niccolo and the rest of Firenze.
Needless to say, my family can go on forever about the wonderful experience we had staying at Francesca’s but it’s truly an adventure that you would need to experience yourself.
