We had a wonderful stay in Franco's beautiful house. It is such a unique experience and so peaceful especially in the evening when there is no one left in Torcello. We loved using the boat to go over to Burano for supplies and it was actually very easy to get into Venice either by the actv or one night when our kids were tired we got a water taxi straight back from St marks Square to the door of the property in 35 mins. Will definitely be back!
