The conversion includes rooms for the proprietor and his family, so there is always somebody on site.
The accomodation is self catering, with a free Saturday buffet and optional Thursday evening meal. Certainly the time to taste the home brewed wine, olive oil and limoncello!! The food was excellent as well!!
Apartments were of excellent standard, with fans but no airconditioning, superb grounds under olive trees and a swimming pool, all within easy driving distance of Florence, Pisa and Sienna. Two stores in local village within walking distance provided sufficient basics, but larger supermarket in Montespertoli requires a car trip if you require a bigger choice.
Gabriel was always happy to provided town maps and showed the best places to park, something usually very difficult in unknown towns. If you want to go into any of the famous buildings, strongly recommend you book in advance, because queues of the unbooked in the heat of August were VERY long.
Practically all his business now is return guests or recommendations, a sure sign that Gabriel is doing the right thing.
All I can say is Highly Recommended
