Fiona says: "It seemed that the renters had thought of everything... Not only was the villa beautiful, the gardens so outstanding that movie-makers should be competing to film there, and the views spectacular, but everything had been put in place to cater for the needs and comfort of 8 people. It was also particularly delightful that we were sufficiently off the beaten path that the local villagers seemed genuinely pleased to see us around - we did not seem to be an intrusion into their lives. It was an easy drive to all the local cities of interest - Lucca, Florence, Viareggio, Siena - once you had mastered the art of driving uphill and round the hairpin bends! Both Nora (housekeeper) and Gregg (gardener/all-round handyman) made every effort each day to see that all was well. The only problem was the sometimes intermittent quality of the internet - perhaps we should have left our workaholic at home! I can think of no more wonderful place to relax and enjoy the finer things in life! "
