After our hectic first week of our honeymoon visiting Rome, Florence and Bologna it was lovely to come and relax here in Sogna. What a fantastic place, so quiet and peaceful. We have enjoyed days relaxing by the pool and drinking wine out on the terrace.Thank you very much for letting us stay here, and we look forward to coming back!

One week is not nearly enough time to spend in this incredible place! Alas, we shall have to come back! Sogna Amore has been a perfect place to begin our honeymoon and to recover from our wedding day. The cottage is perfect – stylish, comfortable and very well equipped! We have slipped into the Italian way of life with ease. We have loved the stillness of Sogna and the beautiful smell of hot earth and lavender. We have been lucky enough to see wild boar and a very bold fox! Thank you

We have had a wonderful holiday here at Sogna Amore. The location is lovely – the views, the pool, the cottage. We have thoroughly enjoyed exploring Tuscany. We sat on the terrace listening to the night noises and watching the stars appear. This place is fantastic!

What a great away from it all location, certainly has a real feel of “timelessness” about it. The beauty of the fig, olive, oak and cypress trees will long remain in the memory. Thanks for letting us share your place.Thanks very much.

We love exploring Tuscany and enjoy the seclusion of Sogna. The house is perfect and we have spent many hours sitting out on the terrace enjoying Tuscan wine, beer and food! It was so nice to have everything working as it should and everything we needed to create nice dinners! The pool was much needed and peaceful to sit around. Thank you so much for making our honeymoon so special with our stay here and we will definitely be recommending it to our friends.

Having had such a wonderful honeymoon last October, here we are again, 9 months later, back for more of what your idyllic cottage has to offer. A two week stay allowed for a much slower pace this time around so we managed to spend a lot of time at the pool as well as taking in some new sights.Sogna has proven (yet again) to be a perfect base for exploring Tuscany and we will always highly recommend Sogna Amore to anyone wishing to do the same. As before, thank you and see you again soon!

We arrived tired and emotionally drained from London and within 24 hours of our arrival we were transformed by this calm and peaceful location. This is truly a rare oasis in these troubled times. Sogna proved to be so much more than I had even imagined, inducing calm and visual pleasures at every turn. We had a wonderful restful and curiously creative time here in your haven. Thank you for sharing Sogna with us.

I was raving about Sogna Amore before we even got here and it was exactly as we had pictured, even better! April in Tuscany has been a wonderful surprise – replete with spring green growth, red poppies, lilacs and wisteria in bloom, irises of every colour and fields of yellow mustard. We felt so thankful to start our Easter week at the beginning of full spring bloom! We felt completely at home in this lovely cottage and will always be thankful of the wonderful memories of our stay here.

We have had the most fantastic honeymoon in Tuscany! The house is so lovely – the perfect romantic hideway – and the location is wonderful. We have had a busy week which included day trips to Cortona, Siena, Chianti, Pisa, San Gimignano and Florence. There is still so much we want to see and do in this beautiful part of the world. The weather has been sunny and warm, particularly in the latter part of the week. We even braved the pool! Thank you for letting is stay in Sogna Amore. We have so many happy memories to take away with us. We will be sad to leave but really hope that we will be able to come again next year. It has been the perfect honeymoon!

What a beautiful holiday in Tuscany! After a week on the Almalfi Coast, we truly enjoyed the relaxation of this cottage. We managed to cook some wonderful meals, using some local produce from the Ambra and Montevarchi markets while also experiencing some local cuisine. We were able to relax around the pool for a couple of days while still being able to make the trip to Siena, Florence, Chianti, Montalcino and Montepulciano! Thanks for the wonderful stay, the prosecco was a nice touch! We will miss the olive trees, the fig trees and the smell of rosemary at our door. Robyn & Norm Ottawa, Canada

We had the most wonderful, perfect honeymoon here at Sogna. We will have so many happy memories of this place: drinking prosecco and eating home-cooked meals with the delicious local produce under the pergola; the total peace and darkness at night (with the beautiful stars) giving us the perfect night’s sleep; the stunning views from the pool ... we could go on and on!

Our time at Sogna was fantastic, we enjoyed the occasional trip out to Arezzo and to San Gimignano but mostly had a great time relaxing enjoying the pool, cooking, and recovering from the hectic wedding week in Florence. We truly enjoyed the peace and quiet offered by this idyllic getaway. Thank you! Ernie & Carrie UK

Thank you for letting us use your beautiful villa for our memorable honeymoon. We have thoroughly enjoyed our fortnight here, especially the last few days where it has been so warm we have just lounged by the pool. We have loved every minute here in Sogna seeing the dancing fireflies at night and even seeing a deer down the woods. Thank you for our lovely card and bubbly on arrival! It was a lovely beginning to our romantic and unforgettable honeymoon. Hannah & Adam UK

We had a wonderful stay at Sogna Amore. It was a great base to visit the other attractions in the area but we also spent 2 days in the borgo doing “nothing”. It was great to find somewhere with “proper” wine glasses which we put to good use! Perfect weather and location. Terry & Lynda Perth, Australia

We really enjoyed daily swimming & tennis and the wonderful weather. It has been a memorable trip. Lesley & John Castle Douglas, Scotland

We’ve had a wonderful relaxing week in Sogna; lovely weather, beautiful countryside, wondrous sights and fields of sunflowers. A perfect place to unwind, we particularly enjoyed sitting under an olive tree with a picnic and a glass of wine. The cottage was perfect for two; romantic, cute & cosy.
