We've long dreamed of staying at a farm in Tuscany, and we were delighted to make this dream come true at Casa Bada. We loved the comfortable farmhouse and its environs, and we appreciated the hospitality of our hosts. Suzy was wonderful to communicate with, and we only wish we could have met her to thank her in person for all her recommendations, but she left us in good hands with her son Charlie and husband Salvatore. A highlight of the stay definitely was the first night, when we had arranged for Salvatore to prepare a dinner for us, which we enjoyed on their terrace, overlooking the amazing countryside. The garden was dying down and chickens not as active, but Charlie and Salvatore started us out with a good supply of fresh eggs and tomatoes, and they gave us a jar of Salvatore's excellent homemade tomato sauce, which we used one night when we cooked for ourselves. Their olive oil is delicious! We definitely would recommend hiking or driving up the hill to the windmill and its bodega and restaurant for a magical experience. One one recommendation would be to think about the country roads when selecting a rental car. We wished we had had a smaller car, with more clearance for those steep, winding, rutted Italian roads.
