The villa is impeccably kept and in a beautiful, quiet setting in gently rolling hills. We've stayed twice now and will stay again. Francesco, the owner, is a perfect host. Always helpful, concerned as a friend that your stay is everything you wish it to be. He speaks perfect English so we had no concerns there. The view from the private pool is exquisite; the evenings are every bit as enchanting as you'd imagine. Three big bedrooms. Plus another bedroom with two beds. And a loft that my nephew took immediately. Great place for a group from 7 to 10. You'll definitely need a car & the drive up (first time) the private road leads you to fields of olives and grape vines. The visit to the Piazzano wine farm shouldn't be missed... people are wonderful there as well. And don't miss the building we call the castle!! :) Such a beautiful place... a home. The villa is very close on to Empoli and only a few minutes from the Empoli train station, where access to Florence is simple and fast. Empoli has a massive COOP (mall with supermarket and dozens of stores). Villa Somelli is a perfect choice for those wanting to relax and have the art of Florence, the beauty of San Gimignano and the beaches at Viareggio all within a hour by car or train. Can't wait until we return!
