The two buidings are close beside each other in a small hamlet, near the country town of Reggello which is situated at the foot of the Protomagno Mountains, about 35 kilometres south-east of Florence, in the direction of Arezzo which is about 50 kilometres. This is classic rural Tuscany - old stone buildings and lines of cypress trees scattered amongst olive groves, and vineyards. The mountains offer superb scenic walks, and there is easy access by rail or motorway to Florence, Arezzo, Siena and beyond. The nearby village has excellent restaurants, bars, shops and an exquisite Romanesque church - home to the famous Masaccio triptych.

Wonderful time in beautiful spot

John D. London
Review Submitted: December 11, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
This was all we hoped for: a charming, comfortble and very well equipped place with a fantastic view into the mountains from the beautiful garden where we spent many an hour sunbathing, eating and sipping gorgeous local wine. The area was also perfect for us as we could get into Florence and lots of other places easily, or if wanted to stay in the area go walking in the mountains (not too strenuous I'm glad to say!).

Eating out and shopping were simple and the local food is just wonderful. In short we can't wait to return!!
Owner's Response: We receive many personal emails reflecting the sentiments of this review, and many of those people return regularly to our place in Italy.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
'Thank you for sharing your fantastic house and garden with us. We've had one of our most memorable holidays to date. We've gone for bike rides, done walks from the house, been to all the main places...We've dined at some superb restaurants, drunk fine wines, barbecued many times in your garden (what a spectacular setting), seen the amazing fireflies...had a trip to The Mall (gulp) where I bought a beautiful leather bag for a fraction of the price I would pay here...can't wait to go again...perfect location for that area and all its wonderful sites and places to visit...Thank you again for a fantastic holiday.' W & J T (Derby)

'We found our stay absolutely wonderful. The 'Suggestions Book' was truly excellent. It encouraged us to walk around the vicinity as well as visit the historic towns nearby. Neither of us wanted to leave by the end of our stay.' (A honeymoon couple, Worcestershire).
