Overall: I would and already have recommended the villa to anyone. My experience with your firm was excellent. When I return to Tuscany I intend to stay at the same location. Enjoyed Most: The ambiance, the history, and the location. Enjoyed Least: Swimming pool was not very convenient or useful. Surrounding Area: The view, convenience for grocery shopping, and convenience to the areas we were interested in touring. Nearby Events or Locales: Monteriggioni, yes Tips or Restaurants: Future guests should be aware of the presence of the large dogs, not an issue for us, but I would be surprised if it is not for some people. The restaurant at Monteriggioni was one of our best meals in Tuscany. The cooking class at the villa was a very good time for everyone.
