Nieuwe Recensie ingezonden voor Villa Agostino: Galileo gelegen in Brenna, Toscane, Italië.

Huurperiode: maandag 25 mei 2009.
Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.
Details Recensie:
We stay in the Galileo unit and the unit was as magnificent as the pictures. Very modern and brand new. There were two bedrooms, one of the bedrooms had a man-made chimney which causes the room to be cold at night. However, there was a central heater to warm up the place. There was a back and front yard which were pleasant at night but can get very hot during the day (we were there in early June). The property is located in a quiet area in Brenna that is friendly to cyclist and runners; bikes are available at the property for no charge. Brenna is approximately 15 minutes from Sienna, one hour from Florence and 2 hours from Pisa; very convenient for day trips. There are two huge supermarkets (Penny, forgot the other name) in Sienna for shopping that are open late There is also a restaurant right across the property, just in case you don't want to cook. Linens and towels are provided and there is a washing machine for cleaning. The person who looks after the house is conveniently located a few blocks away from the place. Although she speaks very little english, she is extremely friendly and made our stay very comfortable. The one drawback for me was the bugs/critters. I did expect mosquitoes and flies since it felt to me like being in the country, but I was surprise to see scorpions. We made them part of our adventure and learn a bit about them. Truly recommend this place and would definitely stay there again my next time in Italy.

Nieuwe Recensie ingezonden voor Torre Del Cielo gelegen in Monterchi, Toscane, Italië.

Huurperiode: zondag 24 mei 2009.
Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.
Details Recensie:
We stayed at Torre del Cielo for a week starting May 24, 2009. The location was excellent. We stayed in a small village with a great view of the countryside. We visited Assisi , Cortona , Florence , Lucca , Gubbia , Chianti Country and several smaller communities. Our host Rosaldi was extremely helpful. He gave us several suggestions for interesting midevil towns to explore. He also took us on a private tour of a monastery where Francis of Assisi stayed. It was remarkable the information we received on Francis life. The house had 5 large bedrooms , each with a private bath. Even though the property was old the condition of the rooms was clean and very attractive. The large pool was clean and we went swimming several times. There was an economical market in the small town near us where the owner greeted us with hugs and kisses. We made several meals in the fully furnished kitchen. The living room was great. There were 3 table areas that each accommodated all 8 of us. We ate mostly outside of the kitchen in the garden area. He has a beautiful rose garden. We also ate inside and at the pool area. My favorite thing to do was to watch the sun rise from atop the watch tower. Our host meet us at the nearest town to show us the villas location. He was always available to help us in any way. We had neighbors but none very close and they were friendly. It was the perfect location to see both Umbria and Tuscany. There is a washing machine but no dryer. You dry the clothes on a drying rack. Be warned that leaving clothes out in the direct sunlight can cause discoloration. In the shde the drying rack works fine. The only criticism might be the beds (which one couple thought was too hard-the others had no concerns) and the rooster in the morning. All of this made it better for us. We could not have picked a better vacation spot or better host.

Nieuwe Recensie ingezonden voor Torre Di San Gimignano gelegen in San Gimignano, Toscane, Italië.

Huurperiode: zaterdag 23 mei 2009.
Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.
Details Recensie:
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the tower and recommend it to all who would like to spend their holiday, or at least part of it, directly in San Gimignano. You don't feel like a tourist when staying there. First class views and the facilities in the tower are excellent. I was treated very kindly by the discrete owners (Giulia in particular). I would happily go back. Understand the tower's origins and you won't have any problems with steps etc, rather you will appreciate, value, and enjoy it.

Nieuwe Recensie ingezonden voor Bigattiera: Bigattiera 4 gelegen in Fucecchio, Toscane, Italië.

Huurperiode: zaterdag 23 mei 2009.
Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.
Details Recensie:
Helpful friendly staff, there is even a nice bbq area for common use. There is no such panoramic view from the terrace as one could suggest, if you know for example southern tuscany and lonely villas there. Bu tnice and clean, woul recomment to only book Bigattiera 4 as that is the only one with a terrace. With this kind of weather, an must imho. Very nice pool area, kid's pool, walking grounds, overall rating 9/10. Ideal solution for couples with no kids.

One minus point for the not panoramic view.

Nieuwe Recensie ingezonden voor Villa Bertagni gelegen in Castelnuovo Di Garfagnana, Toscane, Italië.

Huurperiode: zaterdag 23 mei 2009.
Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.
Details Recensie:
A very memorable stay not least because Bertagni is a beautiful property but also because of the hospitality of Dieter, the villa owner. The website does not do full justice to the villa!
