I have to admit I was sceptical with all the 5* reviews for this property. However, after a very welcoming check-in and a tour of the property, it was clear that all the glowing reports were well deserved. As previously mentioned, the property is incredibly well provisioned with absolutely everything you could possibly need. This includes the little homely touches you normally don’t find. The bigger equipment are all in good condition and work well. TV, cooker, microwave, washing machine, coffee maker, electric fans, fridge and large freezer and a very comfortable bed. Everything is also found clean and tidy. The property is also very well ventilated with fully opening windows on both sides of the building. These allow a lovely breeze to continually flow through the flat. The location is perfect. Colle de Val d’esla is a lovely, picturesque town with an excellent and regular bus service to Florence, and Siena. There is a lovely restaurant just downstairs from the property but no noise filters in at night. Many reviews also mentioned Maura and the excellent service she provides. Along with her daughter, Giulia, they both made our 2 week stay perfect with help when we needed it, recommendations for things to do and a friendly person to talk to. In summary, this is an incredible property to stay in and if your dates are available, I would strongly recommend making a booking as soon as possible. You won’t regret it!!.
