This lovingly restored 800-year old former nunnery, is beautiful. The outdoor vistas of the Tuscan hills and of Florence in the distance are breathtaking and can be spied also from the charming stone and wrought iron windows in most of the bedrooms. We thoroughly enjoyed the herb gardens of lavender, sage, thyme, and rosemary, the plum trees, the grove of 2,500 olive trees, and the little farm with a friendly horse, two goats, geese, and the chickens that provided us with fresh eggs. Daniele is the consummate host—attentive, accessible and friendly. Our first day, we had car troubles. Daniele saved the day, driving us to and guiding us through the town supermarket to stock up for the week. We took up his suggestion to order an in-home, chef-prepared meal at the villa that was magnificent. This worked well for our family group of 5 adults, a child and a toddler. There is nothing better than taking in the view of the sun setting over the Tuscan hills and Florence at the villa while sipping local wine and enjoying a spread of prosciutto, cheeses, breads, and olive oil. The villa is lovely. Our week in Tuscany and our stay at the villa was an experience worth repeating; the venue is highly recommended. Thank you, Daniele, for a wonderful, memorable time!
