CASA DE TOSCANA Siglo XVI - LYFESTYLE ORGÁNICO / Eco-Green viviendo en Florencia

Wonderful is the best way to describe our stay at Podere Montisi (from the time we were picked up at the airport to the moment we were driven to the train station for our departure). Barbara and her family were very welcoming, gracious and helpful. The farmhouse was so quiet and peaceful that I could have stayed there indefinitely!

We were provided with all the necessary food supplies for our first dinner and breakfast (pasta, olive oil, vegetables, juice, fruit, wine, eggs, jam, bread (and yes homemade)! We learned about the farm, restaurants and Travalle in general. The restaurants and pub were within walking distance, and my daughter enjoyed a long hike through the hills, by the river and into Calenzano. Our trips into Florence were easy and enjoyable. I can't forget the cats ---- oh the cats! We fell in love with the cats and Byron, the dog and since we're both animal lovers, this made us feel even more at home.

Overall, this seemed more like a visit with family or close friends. I don't think I have ever stayed in a vacation rental that was this welcoming. If we get back to the Florence area, Podere Montisi will definitely be on our list.

Thank you, Barbara and Family, for sharing your Tuscan farmhouse. I do hope to return.

Perfect location for visiting northern Tuscany.

The area is great; there are breathtaking views from the front of the house.

Within walking distance there is a fantastic restaurant with great food and service and without tourists 

The Landlord is a charming, very helpful person. She will support you with any query.

There are also things you should be advised of: the Landlord family lives in the same house (with separate entrance and rooms); they have cats and a big dog playing in the garden (which was a great fun for our kids); it looks like neighbors are not very friendly however we haven’t experienced that.

Great location, easy to get into Florence yet in quiet country setting. Family generous and engaging.

Our stay at Calenzano country home was delightful. The scenery is amazing. Barbara was gracious and thoughtful to us. Even baked some fresh bread for our morning breakfast. We would love to come back and stay again.
