Generally 4 Star experience
Friendly landlords but for my feeling a little over concerned on COVID by maintaining an extra wide safety distance and very concerned to obtain the documents rather than asking how the travel was. We had a nice little two story cottage with an aircon unit we had to use for heating. The cottage was situated across the pool landscape with a great view ver the vally and sunset where we were clearly advised on the individual sections on where to sit and enter into the pool. The place was very clean and a missing toaster was readily provided. For a 5 star rating I would have expected:
- a warm water supply that does not require to let the water run for 10 Mins
- a more stable WIFI with more bandwidth
- a functioning statellite TV - else only local TV available
- a working washing machine, even though we were provided with an alternative option

Good evening and many thanks for your review.
It has been a pleasure for us to host you at Casa Vacanze La Porta di Mignana and we hope we will be able to do so once again in the near future.
We are sorry to read you have not deemed our approach welcoming enough, it is our main aim, indeed, to let our Guests feel comfortable, well welcomed and at ease. Of course it is very important, in this moment, to abide by all the precautions, too.
Anyway, thanks again for your suggestions. We will work on them and hope to meet you again here to get your 5 star rating!

We loved staying at Filomena’s apartments. Everything was very clean, nicely decorated and felt very authentic in the Tuscan style. The air-conditioning and pool were wonderful, and we really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended!

Un paraiso en la Toscana
Hola,
Fuimos este pasado verano a la Porta Mignana y nos encantó el lugar.
El sitio es excepcional para tener tranquilidad y a la vez está muy bien ubicado.
El trato de Filomena lo mejor, siempre con una sonrisa y a tu disposición con sus detalles de cada mañana.
Los niños se lo pasaron en grande con la piscina y con el entorno que proporciona la casa.
Sin duda un buen lugar para ir de vacaciones.
Gracias por todo Filomena. Todos te hechamos de menos.
