Review For Il Cigliere - 5 Stars - 19 October 2013

New Review Submitted for Il Cigliere located in Cerreto Guidi, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 5th of October 2013.

Renter: Thomas D. (Portsmouth, NH, United States).

Renter Rating: 5/5.

Review Details:

Had a great visit, Fabio and Francesca were wonderful. The villa was spotless and very well maintained. A nice basket of local product was waiting for us and made dinner the first night very easy and enjoyable after a long drive. The grounds are lovely set in an olive grove. Short drive to the train in Empoli and a number of good restaurants in the area. Don't miss Vinci a very nice little town and Museum, ask Fabio for tips on restaurants and getting around he was a great help.

While you may fit 6 people here, it would work better if a couple of them were children, the pull out bed in the living room seems pretty small and the second bedroom does not have a door. Not major issues for us but you should be aware.
We would recommend this to anyone!

Review Details:

It was authentic rustic Italian Villa out buildings but needed more attention to detail for example....kitchen appliances not working, minimum supply like salt pepper sugar coffee etc. given late check in and arrival, problems with electric down should be addressed ( keep candels n flashlight handy) as it makes it challenging after a long day visiting Florence

New Review Submitted for Il Palagio: Capanna located in Panzano, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Sunday 29th of September 2013.

Renter: Maria W. (King of Prussia, PA, United States).

Renter Rating: 5/5.

Review Details:

Il Palagio was gorgeous and beautiful. I would recommend it highly to anyone. A few things could be enhanced. More lighting in Capanna is needed in the living area. And it might be nice if the owners left dish detergent in the kitchen just so that guests have it at their disposal. Other than that, it was absolutely wonderful!!!

New Review Submitted for Antica Fortezza: Triple Bedroom Ensuite located in San Rocco A Pilli, Tuscany, Italy.

Review Details:

We stayed in Europe one month of which 1 week was in France and 3 weeks in Itay. We were scheduled to stay at Antica Fortezza for 5 days, but extended it 2 added days. Great location to San Rocco, which has a great super market and Wednesday market. It is a 5 minute walk to the village. Bus to Siena is in San Rocco and takes just 20 minutes (11 km). Buses travel to Siena every hour. The rooms at Antica Fortezza were clean and comfortable. They have a main kitchen for anyone to use and we used their refrigerator for our storage. Anna Marie is in charge and is an excellent wealth of information for help. Breakfast was very good and is included in the stay. Alot of history at the villa and we enjoyed reading books, taking bus rides to Siena and Montgeriggioni. The villa proved to have the character we needed to absorb the culture of Italy's countryside and get away from commerization/tourism. We really enjoyed our stay.
