The villa could not have been better! The views were beautiful and the ease of getting in and out at Florence was great. The Pizzeria up the hill had great wood-fired pizzas (referable). The grocery store down the hills was always busy and not open untli 7 pm on Monday. The central market had the best meats and vegies.
A Million thanks!

with beautiful location, elegance and comfort the Villa has been a wonderful home for our family. The pool was especially appreciated by the children for cooling off after sightseeing in the heat.
We found the couple in food shop at the bottom of the road, very friendly and helpful and recommend the "I Gioghi" restaurant, a few miles in Montespoli which has a nice open air dining area and friendly waiters.
There is so much still to see in Florence that I hope we shall be back one day.
Thank you very much

Staying in your villa was delightful! We were 10 people from the Netherlands. One family and we tried to go out to restaurant in the night the time - but having dinner in the garden with this view, it could never be that beautiful anywhere. So we had dinner here every night and enjoyed the lovely place! May be till next time?
