A Delightful Experience

phyld Harrison Hot Springs, British Columbia, Canada
Review Submitted: July 4, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2007
My friend and I spent 10 wonderful days and nights in Roberto's apartment in San Casciano. We could not have dreamed of a better experience. The apartment is lovely, with every convenience, and it is kept immaculately clean by the owners. There is a beautiful garden in the back where we relaxed in the evening, with a glass of the excellent local wine. There are several great restaurants within easy walking distance. If you choose to cook for yourself, there are wonderful delicatessens and produce shops steps from the apartment.
The apartment is also very well situated for sightseeing, and there is no need to have a car. It is a very short walk to the bus stop that takes you to Florence, and from Florence there are buses available to many of the wonderful sites of Tuscany.
Enough cannot be said of the hospitality of Roberto and his family. We were as sad to leave them as to leave the wonderful apartment and village. There is no doubt we will return, and next time for a longer stay.

A Wonderful Experience - Thank you Roberto

First time to Europe New Zealand
Review Submitted: November 7, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My husband Warren and self spent eight wonderful nights with Roberto and his wife Anna in their lovely apartment in central San Casciano.
These seven short days were the highlight of our trip - this area must be one of the most beautiful places on earth – the history, the art, the people and the great hospitality, a combination of which left us with one desire – to return just as soon as we possibly can!

Tuscany Holiday 09

Alan & Haley Bucks, UK
Review Submitted: August 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent 4 days in Roberto's apartment and greatly enjoyed our stay. The apartment is in the centre of San Casciano, ideally located for a range of interesting local shops and restaurants. The apartment has a very nice terrace with lovely views down the valley. The apartment is well decorated with lots of little touches to make it feel more homely. Roberto is an excellent host and was happy to provide advice and information on the local area. Whilst staying at the apartment we visited Florence, Pisa and Siena all of which are within easy reach with a car. I would recommend this to anyone going sightseeing in Tuscany.

Great introduction to a thriving Tuscan Community

Margaret & Duncan Loch Lomondside, Scotland, UK
Review Submitted: July 23, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
As first time visitors to Tuscany we found San Casciano to be a wonderful example of modern community life, with a large range of amenities, activities and interests available within this compact township.

We spent a wonderful week in Roberto's apartment located conveniently on the first floor. Other reviews have accurately described it and it's very convenient location allowing us to experience this great community, which came to life every evening at one of the range of venues within the township. We may have been particularly lucky to have been their during a summer festival.

The apartment is self contained, with every convenience within a short walking distance. It is kept immaculately clean by the owners who provide unrestricted access to their beautiful garden to the rear of the property, to relax and overlook the working valley below with olives and other crops. The apartment has limited daylight and outlook, so the garden is a great compensation to enjoy the wonderful view, weather and lights that the area enjoys.

San Casciano has great restaurants, wonderful delicatessens, coffee, vintners and produce shops just steps from the apartment. As is a very helpful Information office in the museum providing detail on anything that Roberto overlooked.

We didn't have a car and it was a very short walk to the bus stop taking you to Florence, and from there throughout Tuscany or Pisa and the coast on buses or trains. Early morning travel recommended to be back for the last bus back to San Casciano about 8.30pm.

San Casciano is a working community and visitors are in the minority allowing you to experience the local way of life. It lacks little and seeking out places like the open air swimming pool allow you to fully enjoy your break and have a lazy day from travelling and the crowds in Florence.

Roberto and his family made us very welcome throughout our stay which was a comfortable and enjoyable experience which we thank them for.
