This visit was such a joy, largely because of the hosts Rosanna and Paolo. The apartment is large and airy with beautiful views of the valley below. The climb to the property is rewarded with absolute quiet, save the sounds of the working farm. The kitchen is well equipped for any kind of cooking desired. Every day, we received fresh vegetables to add to our menu. The apartment is well situated for access to hiking and exploring the area. Florence is about an hour away by train, making it easy to drop down for the day. Rosanna and Paolo are wonderful hosts with a long history with the valley. We decided one night we would grill a Bistecca Fiorentina with beef from the butcher in Vicchio, along with some peppers. We brought wine and fruit. Rosanna added porcini risotto and a mushroom salad with Parmesan, ending with some grappa from a neighbor. In short, a magnificent stay with wonderful people. We will be back!
