Review for stay from 18 June 2022 to 25 June 2022
The gorgeous villa nestled atop the hills of Castiglion Fiorentino was more spectacular than the pictures! The views were breath-taking , and the place was immaculate. To our delight, there were a few surprises at the villa - the pool had some lovely cabanas and new umbrellas installed, plus a hot jacuzzi which was lovely to enjoy in the evenings whilst taking in the view.
We did not have a car, and transport did prove tricky, but our hosts were super helpful in collecting us from the local train station (however, I do recommend hiring a car). One evening, the matriarch and her friend cooked us a lovely local meal which included the most amazing Bistecca Fiorentina (the consistency was tender and soft, like butter), followed a spectacular Tiramisu - delightful! Definitely too much food, but we certainly did not mind. The complimentary vino della casa and house made olive oil were also a very lovely touch. Such a spectacular home, secluded and private location – even the separate staircases in the house offer some privacy from your guests (or kids…). We so enjoyed our time here and cannot wait to return to sunny, beautiful Tuscany.
