5 out of 5	My husband and I, along with two other couples stayed for one week at this fantastic Villa. We enjoyed the private quarters and beautiful landscaping. We enjoyed easy access to both Florence and Rome as well as Siena. We also enjoyed the local hospitality and plan to return this year. Best time of our lives. We highly recommend this Villa.
