I booked the villa as a special;l birthday present for my wife so she could enjoy a holiday and the company of our lovely family; 3 daughters, 2 granddaughters and 3 son-in-laws. The villa offered a great base to visit Florence and Pisa - we could also easily have visited Lucca and Siena but chose to enjoy the villa and its facilities. We did however visit and dine out in the beautiful town of San Miniato - a must see town offering interesting buildings and stunning views, oh and great Tuscan food (White Truffle). My wife remarked the photographs on-line did not do the villa justice and was mesmerized by the panoramic views from the villa and enthralled by the lower garden, swimming pool and Table tennis play area. The villa's Barbecue area is good fun and we utilized the facility twice enjoying the night air and playing various card games. I cannot thank the owner enough for the clean, beautiful villa which has an interesting history and lovely rooms and period furniture - the beds were extremely comfortable.

The accommodation was excellent and suited our purposes well. Even taking the age of the property into account the apartment was very clean. As we were there in March it could be cool but the heating was efficient and it warmed quickly. The welcome and tour of the village was great and the location of the apartment makes you feel of the village very quickly. We recommend the "Solo Bar" next to the church for coffee ( they will do takeaway). We would happily stay again.

C'est la 2ème fois que nous venons dans le logement Flavia 2 et nous sommes toujours agréablement surpris : qualité de la décoration, propreté, gentillesse des propriétaires.Il manque juste quelques chaines de télévision française. A recommander.

Wunderbare, kleine familiäre Anlage im Grünen - das typisch toskanische Haus bietet genügend Platz. Küche ausreichend ausgestattet, Bäder einfach, aber ok - ruhiges, beschauliches Haus mit einer wunderschönen Terrasse!
Der Ort ist in 5 Minuten vom Haus erreichbar.

This is an excellent apartment for a family 6+. the grounds and castle are excellent areas for children to explore after a hard days travel. Well situated to explore Florence, Valterra, San G, and many other Tuscano hill towns. Kitchen was well apportioned, bathrooms excellent. I highly recommend this place, but not for budget travelers.

San Giovanni Valdarno is an excellent location from which to explore the culture and scenery of the middle 1/3 of Italy. While we used our leased car for our excursions, there is excellent rail service at a very reasonable price. We enjoyed many walks, directly from our apartment.
We thoroughly enjoyed our relationships with the Mugnai family during our entire 2-month stay; they were pleasant and helpful.
The apartment is spacious, well-maintained and provides easy access to the outside. It is very accommodating for persons with mobility challenges. On the downside, since it is also designed to minimize oppressive summer heat, we found the floor cold. To ameliorate this, we suggested that the owner make available some mats for winter use. Although we cooked most of our meals in the small kitchen, we recommended that the owner install a microwave oven. We were pleased that the owner promptly provided a dehumidifier at our request.
