We recently enjoyed a week long stay in the Borgo Tollena villa apartment Rosa Di Sera. The location is superb, setting magnificent and grounds/pool area nicely thought out. There are lots of areas to sit quietly and relax, with excellent outdoor dining areas. The apartment itself is tastefully furnished with very comfortable beds. One slight improvement would have been a chest of drawers in the bedroom, we only had a wardrobe to place our clothes. We arrived very late and would reaaly have appreciated a small welcome pack, for eg bread and bottled water as all supermarkets were closed, which meant we had to wait until the next morning to stock up! A minor suggestion, however it would definitely make a big difference upon arrival. Would however recommend the Villa to friends and family and would like one day to return.

What a glorious retreat. The hosts were warm and welcoming and were happy to help if we had any requests. The pool area was stunning. Gorgeous gardens, beautifully clean and the pool was just the right temperature. The apartment was clean and had everything you needed. The only slight comment is that the walls are thin, so if you may hear the people next to you, but it certainly didn't detract from the size, style and overall contentment with the property. We'd love to go back!

Location is great, view from the house is fantastic and location is very good for all Tuscany connections, house is spacious and very nicely decorated and clean. Pool is large and nice. Small minuses are lack of water on some days and very poor internet connection. Overall very positive.

We loved staying at Fattoria Armena. The place was an oasis to relax, yet close to all the wineries and hill cities so we could easily explore. The hosts, Stefania and Alessandro were the great and made our stay unique. There was great service and food, along with many laughs as we discussed the days adventures. The rooms were very large and nicely furnished. Pool and views were amazing too. We will come back - Tom, Patsy, Don, Carmen, Brad, Sara

We had a lovely stay at Il Frantoio Delle Grazie. Our apartment was very clean and had lots of old world charm. The grounds were beautiful and we made ample use of the outdoor patio area and grill. Although this didn't bother us, we could hear the train pass by. It wasn't loud but we were aware of it. Also, the 900 meter walk to the bus stop and train station felt longer, perhaps because the walk along road just outside the gates is extremely narrow and we were nervous about cars coming around the corner and not seeing us.

The place is lovely and pool great. The best part is Laura the owner who is terrific. They have a winery and we loved the wine. It's a bit difficult to get to but worth it. Barbara Snell FL

This apartment was the perfect location and the highlight of our time in Florence! Beautiful decor and balconies overlooking the plaza. We enjoyed having coffee on the balcony in the morning and champagne in the evening. The restaurant Il David, on the first floor was a plus also!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Poggio Del Sole. Our family of 6 swam in the beautiful pool to cool down after our day trips around Tuscany. Looking out our bedroom window at the hillside town of Cortona was amazing. It was perfectly situated in the country side and for visits to Florence, Sienna, Cortona and the lake. The WiFi worked best out on the back patio. When following directions to get there the stone house (after which you turn left) is on the left hand side of the road and remember to bear right on the white road. We would highly recommend this beautifull villa but keep in mind only two of the three bedrooms have air conditioning. Our thanks to Alberto, our housecleaner and Hank for our wonderful holiday under the Tuscan sun.

Our 2 weeks at the villa were incredible. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and lovely. The grounds are beautiful and the pool was a welcome part of the days where temperatures were between 90 - 100 degrees F. Meals in the main kitchen were great and perfect for hiring chefs (a must do). Gigliola and Lorenzo were wonderful and accommodating. The proximity to Cortona is fantastic. It is a classic medieval hill top town that is easy to visit, even just for dinner. We would gladly return here!
