Tutto perfetto!
Accolti con gentilezza squisita dalla signora Gigliola , abbiamo passato un soggiorno perfetto in un'appartamento pulitissimo e curato in ogni particolare. Le giornate di sole ci hanno permesso di godere anche della terrazza. È veramente speciale e la colazione all'aperto con vista sul panorama circostante è il migliore inizio! Comodo punto di partenza per visitare la Toscana: è vicino a tutto, ma abbastanza lontano per stare tranquilli. Veramente consigliato, ritorneremo sicuramente!

vacanza nella casa di Gigliola
Siamo stati in Toscana nell'appartamento della sig.ra Gigliola, siamo stati ospitati in maniera squisita dalla padrona di casa che ci ha accolti e viziati con una sorpresa all'arrivo: una torta deliziosa ed ha continuato con la piena disponibilità in caso di bisogno. La casa è spaziosa e luminosa. Consigliamo vivamente a chi intenda fare una vacanza con la sensazione di sentirsi a casa.Esperienza da ripetere sicuramente!
