Review for stay from 23 October 2021 to 30 October 2021
Beautiful location surrounded by vineyards and olive groves and only a short drive down the hill into central Florence. The property is full of Tuscan charm. Comfortable beds and lots of space. The only slight negative is the kitchen which could do with some updating to bring it in line with modern standards. Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay.
