First of all: Great beds, lots of pillows, and fluffy duvets made for a fantastic sleep. Bathroom amenities, waffle robes, thoughtful touches everywhere, and a private hot tub gave us a resort-like experience. Fresh-ground coffee was a bonus. And then, the warm welcome given by our host and a tour of the private orchard, with fruit offered fresh off the trees (at harvest time) really made it feel like we were in Tuscany! We booked the entire house for a girl's retreat as we were attending a business-forming weekend in Watsonville, and there really aren't any hotels in the area. But the Tuscan House is a true gem and we'll definitely be back for future get-aways or visits to the area.
