Guestbook for Borgo di Colleoli
Just wonderful. Loved it. Everyone so helpful, friendly, truly Tuscan paradise
Once again we had a fabulous time in Borgo. We also visited the local dinosaur park, water park and had a wonderful afternoon in Florence. The pizzeria has reopened so we also enjoyed that as well as all the local restaurants. Hope to return again next year for the third time!
Absolutely wonderful. perfect place for our honeymoon. come back still on cloud 9. thank you again soo much
We spent a wonderful week at Borgo di Colleoli. The apartment is very comfortable, cool - in every sense - and well appointed, with a delightful balcony which we enjoyed sitting out on for breakfast (before the sun got too hot). The Borgo complex itself is well run and beautifully looked after. The fact that no cars are allowed in makes it a very peaceful and extremely relaxing place to stay, in spite of there being quite a few apartments as well as a small hotel.It never felt busy or crowded and there was always space to sunbathe by the pool or to relax in the shade. The location makes it a great starting point for visiting Sienna, Pisa, Lucca, Florence and San Gemignano - car hire is important unless you are happy to just relax and enjoy the atmosphere of Borgo. Very good pizzeria closeby where we had 2 excellent meals and other restaurants within walking distance which were superb. THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Went to Borgo to get over divorce - wonderful place to recuperate, to recharge my batteries and to believe in myself again. thank you so much
We have just returned from our Tuscan trip and I have to say that we had a wonderful time. The apartment is great, we had everything we needed. The Borgo itself is a beautiful place with a lot of space for kids to run and explore. We certainly hope to return sometime soon. Thanks again for all the useful advice about the area.
What a wonderfullllllllllll place to have your honeymoon. So romantic.. everything we wanted and more.. will be back to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. thank you sooooooooo much again for everything
Wonderful place to get away from it all! thoroughly recommend it to anyone needing to recharge their batteries.
Loved it and we are coming BACK! Fantastic personalised service by owner
Your apartment is an ideal location. Just enough of a 'get-away' to feel the peace and quiet, but accessible to venture onward.
We had a fabulous time in Borgo; saw so many places, climbed innumerable steps, gazed at painted frescos - had a fantastic time. Pools were a god-send. All staff so helpful. Thank you again.
Just brilliant.. wine, food, ambience...purrrfect location...
We had a great time at Borgo. Loved it. So much that we may consider buying into it at some stage.
We had a ball - apartment excellent and your advice/recommendations invaluable. we will be BACK!
Still havent come down to earth after our wonderful holiday. Of all the places I have ever visited Tuscany has got to be the best. We'll certainly be going there again. Thank you very much
