Riccardo and Simonette are the homeowners and they are fantastic. The villa was impeccably maintained and the owners were incredibly helpful and friendly. The property is absolutely stunning and we all wanted to take the cook home! If you have the opportunity plan at least one meal in and select from the villa's menu -- you will not be disappointed. This property is centrally located to everything! We day tripped Rome and Venice from our villa via the Italian train and it was simple and easy to get around. The most fun we had however was staying close to the villa and visiting the small towns scattered around the Tuscan region. The views from the home are spectacular and will be definitely be heading back.

One word of caution -- no air conditioning at this villa which is not unusual however when we were there the tempertures exceeded 100 degrees F. There is simply no way to air condition this beautiful property but come prepared to deal with standing fans. Also the road leading to the villa is unpaved and remote so take it slow or you will end up with all kinds of rock dents and dings and make sure you look for the villa in the daylight. You must try the wines of the property as well -- they are special.

Lovely villa in a great location. A couple of things we didn't realise: there is actually currently no internet provision (wifi or otherwise) at the villa, which was problematic for our group particularly as a couple of us had to stay in touch with work. Also: the lady who looks after the house actually lives on-site next door in an annex, which was no issue and totally unintrusive but psychologically it's much nicer to think your group is seclueded and in a private place to relax alone. Otherwise, all great.

Villa Primula and its owners provided such a wonderful experience that I am reluctant to let anyone else know because then the availability will close quickly...it was a great time and I send the Testini family my warmest greetings. Also EasyReserve made the booking and payment very easy. Stephen S - New York, NY

Fantastic place! Close to Florence but you do need a rental car. The staff is very nice and there are some great places to eat nearby.
