Imola Grand Prix Visit
A group of 7 of us stayed at Francis property for a week. The place was a fantastic hub for visiting vineyards, Florence, Pisa and all other touristy bits you may like to do. Sadly the weather was not on our side so we did not get to use the pool or garden as much as we would like, but there was plenty of other things to keep us busy. Franco was excellent with the check in and checkout process, being very flexible and accommodating. Thanks once again 👍

Fabulous spacious old stone farmhouse in beautiful Tuscan countryside
As a group of five adults we found this lovely house with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms had plenty of space for us all. Both double bedrooms had adjoining dressing room and ensuite. The house was very clean and Franco and his wife welcomed us very warmly, leaving a contact telephone number, but leaving us alone while we were staying. The neighbours do have dogs which of course bark a bit, so that was a nuisance. The view from the terrace magical, great kitchen and comfortable living spaces, although we spent most of our time on the terrace. WiFi doesn't work, which was a bit of a problem, but understand we were in the country. The restaurant in Grezzano (2 kms away) was fabulous and authentic cooking. The villages within easy reach beautiful, uncrowded and with fascinating history. Florence an easy train trip from Borgo San Lorenzo. I hope we have the opportunity to stay here again, a bit 'far from the madding crowd'.

Perfect house at perfect location
This old farmfouse was just perfect for us - 3 couples traveling around Tuscany. The house is located very close to Florence, about 4 km up hill from the village of Grezzano, but it is not possible to notice presence of the big city or people around.
The interior is tastefully designed and allows you to fall into the old days, real Tuscany and Italy. No doubt that owners have put their hearts in this cosy place. The kitchen is fully (even too much) equiped allowing to enjoy full range of Italian or other national dishes. Since I am food lover and really like to cook for my friends, I had the real pleasure of working in an outdoor kitchen on the terrace. Unfortunately the weather was quite terrible during our stay, but the covered outside terrace and open fireplace made our evenings fully enjoyable. I trully hope that we will be able to return to this place once again, when Tuscany weather will allow us to "to do nothing" around the garden and pool that are hidden from other people's eyes.
In 3 words - the place is gorgeous!
Thank you Franco for leting us feel the taste of Tuscany!

Lovely welcome, lovely villa!
Thank you so much to Franco for the lovely welcome to the villa on our arrival. The villa was beautiful with everything provided for us. Unfortunately we were unable to use the pool as it wasn't warm enough for us at this time of year! But we did enjoy the garden and wonderful views. We visited Florence, Lucca and Siena during our week's stay, all within easy reach from the villa. A stay at this villa is thoroughly recommended.

Das Haus, der Pool und die Lage sind toll, obwohl man sich bewusst sein muss, das man zum Einkaufen etwas weiter fahren muss. aber die ganze unterkunft hat das Wett gemacht, man wollte das haus garnicht verlassen.

Holiday in Paradise
Es war einfach alles perfekt - von Anfang bis Ende! Das Haus und der Garten (welcher riesig ist) sind wunderschön und haben eine tolle persönliche Note! Wir haben die Einrichtung geliebt und gleich wie zuhause gefühlt. Auch unser kleiner Hund Rocky fand es super! Es war wie im Paradies. Das Haus bietet sehr viel Platz und auch mit zwei Familien tritt man sich nicht auf die Füße und jeder hat genug Freiraum. Den Pool haben wir täglich genutzt und die Aussicht ist phänomenal! Auch sehr gute Restaurants gibt es in der Nähe und falls man möchte kann man in der Außenküche auch mal schön grillen. Franco, der Gastgeber war und ist super sympathisch und sofort bei allen Fragen oder Problemen zur Stelle. Wir haben uns super aufgehoben gefühlt und danken Franco unser seiner sehr netten Frau nochmals ganz herzlich für die große Gastfreundschaft - es war ganz bestimmt nicht unser letztes Mal und wir freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen!
Tutto era semplicemente perfetto, dall'inizio alla fine! La casa e il giardino (che è enorme) sono bellissimi e hanno un grande tocco personale! Abbiamo adorato l'arredamento e ci siamo sentiti come a casa nostra. Anche il nostro cagnolino Rocky l'ha adorata! È stato come un paradiso. La casa offre molto spazio e anche con due famiglie non ci si pesta i piedi a vicenda e tutti hanno abbastanza spazio. Abbiamo usato la piscina ogni giorno e la vista è fenomenale! Ci siamo sentiti molto bene e vorremmo ringraziare ancora una volta Franco e la sua gentilissimmo

Toskana-Urlaub mit 5 Sternen
Wir waren zum zweiten Mal in diesem Ferienhaus in der Toskana, nahe Borgo San Lorenzo, unweit von Florenz. Der freundliche Besitzer Franco nimmt einen persönlich in Empfang und kümmert sich darum, dass ab Check-in alles so ist wie gewünscht. Es geht familiär zu. Haus samt Anlage mit Pool sind toll und es fehlt an nichts. Alles ist großzügig genug (z.B. 2 Terrassen und der Garten am Pool), so dass man auch in größeren Runden zu jeder Zeit Rückzugsorte hat. Die Umgebung ist Toskana pur in ihrer schönsten Form, wirklich atemberaubend. Das Ferienhaus bildet den perfekten Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen: Florenz, Siena, Volterra, Pisa oder auch Venedig usw. Wir haben diesen Urlaub zum zweiten Mal sehr genossen und kommen bestimmt noch ein drittes Mal. Danke Franco für die Gastfreundlichkeit.

Surprisingly wonderful and Cosy
We stayed at Francos estate for at week and loved every minute.
Everything is in place, in abundance and Franco was very helpful in giving hints and recommendations of venues and dining.
The house is very big, and offers more than promised in the pictures. The garden is full of lush flowers (in mid July), and the pool area is private with a wonderful view of the hills.
We give our best recommendations to this place :-)

lovely old old mill with character
Me and my sons had a wonderful week here.
We were made very welcome and the whole property was shown and explained to us in detail.
Everything in the house worked fine.
The pool, which was the most important place in this ultra-hot summer, was also great. The pool pump was exaktly adjusted, the pool was always clean, we didn't have to worry about a thing. Perfect: the outdoor fridge right by the pool!
Also very attentive: everything I usually forget on a self-catering holiday was there! (salt, tabs for the dishwasher, coffee capsules, etc.) There were even some cold drinks and fresh milk in the fridge for us when we arrived. Thanks for that!
What else to say? The house is well protected against mosquitoes on all windows. Despite the extreme heat, the nights were bearable because the house stays reasonably cool and there was a fan for each bedroom.
Regarding criticism from previous guests: Yes, you can hear the racetrack. But more like a distant road. it didn't bother us and despite racing on the Track, I slept wonderfully in the shade under the old olive trees.
And yes, the neighbors' dog sometimes barks. It's just a dog that guards the neighbors' yard. At night he was quiet. Didn't bother us.
By the way: The neighbors were very nice and put the rubbish out on the street for us.
Summary: If you want to enjoy a nice stay in the Tuscan countryside, with a pool, sun or shade under old olive trees with a magnificent view of valleys and hills, this is the place for you.
You'll even get some insider tips for local shops and restaurants from Emily and Franco.
But you shouldn't be afraid of country life and nature, because we had some animal encounters in the garden.
The old mill might not be as perfect and practical as a modern hotel. (Tall people have to duck their heads at the door frames)
But everything here has been prepared with a lot of charm and even more love. It is reminiscent of an old property with modern conveniences. For us, it was perfect.
