We have just spent a fantastic holiday at Villa Franello!!! From the time we arrived driving up from Lucca we just could not believe how gorgeous the property was. (the photos do not do it justice you have to see this). The villa is to a high standard. It was large enough for each part of our family group to have their own space if needed to relax & chill out both inside and out, this for us was a real plus as the garden was just something else.

We spent many days relaxing around the pool & soaking up the sun as well as enjoying walking in the surrounding countryside.

We loved the nearby hill towns of Loppeglia & Fiano, and all what you need for daily could be found in San Martion de Freddana. Ivalda was the perfect host as it could not have been better, as we felt immediately very welcome like at home. She prepared a brilliant homemade dinner for us on the first night. Excellent!

We are planning our return visit to Villa Nobile already & will definitely be recommending Franello to others.

Thanks for everything Ivalda.

We throroughly enjoyed our week in Casa Di Vignolo. We arrived after an unexpected snowfall, and were warmly welcomed by the owner and their son who had made sure the villa was lovely and warm for our arrival. They showed us how everything worked and even walked us around the village to show us the butcher, minimart, pharmacy, bakery etc. They could not have been more welcoming. Our whole family of 6 enjoyed the cooking lesson and the following dinner with the owner's family. A real experience of Tuscany. The snow melted during the day after our arrival and it was lovely to see the countryside change from white to green - I am not sure which is more beautiful. A fantastic experience.

The property far exceeded our expectations. The villa was superbly located with views out over the plains below Cortona. It was spacious and easily accomodated us and our two daughters. It really really did make our stay very memorable and we would not hesitate to recommend it.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Villa Del Gallo Nero. There were 10 of us staying for 5 days over the Thanksgiving time period. The service/info we received from the owner and management company was excellent. We had many questions/requests ahead of time and each one was addressed and worked out. The villa is well equipped and comfortable. There were a few minor bathroom issues (slow drains, broken shower head in one B.R.) but all in all, it was in good working order. A highlight of our stay was when the winemaker across the road came over to give us a personal wine tasting. Fantastic! We also had a chef come in one day (recommended by property manager) to cook. Awesome! We would definitely go back.
