The whole family absolutely loved this authentic Tuscan in a fabulous location and outstanding views of the surrounding countryside. Diane and Alex were the perfect guests: welcoming, sociable and willing to share their knowledge and insights for where to go in the area.

The house has it all: patio/dining areas on both kitchen and entrance side, well stocked kitchen, spacious bedrooms and a balcony on the roof terrace with terrific sunset views...accompanies by a drop of the local Chianti of course! Theres even an oversized hot tub outside to take in the views.

Grateful for a number of recommendations including the thermal spa south of Ciena and the local restaurant in the village of Arcetri that again harnesses the view with large windows...oh and the food is excellent too.

In all, the best of both worlds: in the heart of Tuscany yet on the outskirts of Florence! We will be back. Thanks.
