Questo nido nel cuore della Toscana è proprio accogliente. Grazie per la torta inaspettata, per le luci di natale che hanno reso l'ambiente ancora più caldo e familiare e per il gattone rosso che ci ha indicato l'accesso scortandoci fino alla porta.

Thank you so much for your hospitality. We had such a great time in Italy. Your stonehouse is very comfortable. Perhaps you should tell your foreign visitors about the alarm string in the bathroom so they don't hang their underwear on it! Ha ha, sorry about that. We will definitely recommend Lucca Stonehouse to others who wish to travel here.

It felt like coming home again. Our 2nd time in the stonehouse and definitely not our last. Harold hoped you baked a cake. Very good banana cake. Further thanks for all the extras (milk, drinks, coffee etc) for the first day. Also, the grapes from your garden tasted perfectly. You do so much extra for your guests! We really appreciate that. You are a very good host and you also give good advice where to go. And the appartment is clean, well equipped and very large. .....

From our first day when you graciously took us to the "sagra" to our last, we have found the best of stonehouse is its owners. We certainly have enjoyed our time in the Tuscany region, and our relaxing at your home. A clean, refreshing and well decorated appartment was great to come home to after our day's drive. We will remember your garden and your hospitality and the great Italian vacation we had.
