We were a group of six and there was plenty of room for everyone. when we arrived, Flaminia our host arranged a lovely welcoming snack and wine, explained everything we needed to know. The location of the villa was great, near Montepuliciano,pianza,and Montelcino,all the places we were planing to go. newr by supermarket for everyday needs. we could not ask for more we definitely come back, and recommend this place. Response: So charming group of friends! I'm glad you've enjoyed, I'm looking forward for your next come, there's so much more places to discover I can suggest you to have a daily journey: you wasn't in umbria, for example! Perugia and Assisi, Trasimen lake with the castle and some nightlife on the beach, the food. Or to have a day thermal SPA with hot water springs in San Casciano dei Bagni or Bagnovignoni or Bagni di San Filippo! Cortona and Arezzo, every first sunday of month there is a antiques large market. In summer many food and wine events and festivals. Churches and movie scenarios as Sant'Anna in Camprena (the english patient) or San Galgano, or Sant'Antimo where gregorian monks sings in Christmas. Ciao, and see you soon! Flaminia |
