Danke, dass Sie Ihre Erfahrungen mit uns teilen. Wir sind erfreut, dass Lorenzo Ihren Aufenthalt so angenehm gemacht hat und dass Sie das Haus und den Garten geliebt haben. Wir freuen uns darauf, Sie bald wieder begrüßen zu dürfen!
Sehr gepflegtes Haus und Grundstück mit sehr guter Betreuung durch den Hausbesitzer selbst. Wir hatten schon viele Häuser in der Toskana, aber dieses Haus ist mit Abstand das Beste. Der Standort liegt zentral für Besuche von San Gimignano, Volterra, Monteriggioni, Colle di Val d‘ Elsa etc. Vielen Dank an die Verwaltung von To Toskana und Lorenzo.
