New Review Submitted for Villa Fabbroni: Il Pergolo located in San Polo In Chianti, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Monday 7th of April 2014.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
The appt is cozy and enjoyable.
It was a bit of a shock to get there though as its 4km off an unmarked dirt road with no lights, so very hard to arrive at dusk. The booking didnt prepare us for the relative remoteness of the property, which meant that each family needed to have their own car to be independent (which we didnt) - wasnt advisable to use a large van as we did on that road. The transport links from San Polo were very poor to Firenze.

The property had good rooms and kitchen.
My suggestion is for the showers to be fitted with small corner shelves to hold toileteries
Pergolo was decently furnished (not as grand as Padronale)
However, the shared space (Kitchen and Living) could be considerably better as the sofa there was in a very poor and ratty condition and should be replaced. A coffee table could be added. Just these simple things would give a much nicer feel to the room
The internet was inaccessible in this part of the house. It would be a good investment (EUR50?) to have a repeater or internet signal amplifier around Pergolo.

New Review Submitted for Villa Fabbroni: Il Padronale located in San Polo In Chianti, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Monday 14th of April 2014.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
The Apartment is grand and well furnished in antique style. We had a very enjoyable stay.
My only minor quibbles were:
a) All the showers lacked a shelf to place toileteries while showering...this can and should be easily remedied
b) The showers had good pressure, but the shower heads were very fine, so that the stream of water was very painful (like needles!) the shower heads at Pergolo were perfect and perhaps the ones at Padronale should be changed
c) From the internet description, it wasnt actually clear that the house is so far from any civilization or transport links! San Polo is 4-5km away on an uneven dirt road, which was a bit disconcerting coming up at dusk the first time....its a bit far to get quick groceries (and the shops are open short hours). There are very few transport options at San Polo (only 2 buses a day - early morn and evening to florence) so if any part of the party of guests that want to go off independently from the rest of the group needs to have a separate car.
