Villa Cafaggiolo Florence Italy - Holiday Villa Rental

This is an example of reference that much more that my words, could solve your doubts. I could insert many short, nice comments about Villa Cafaggiolo, but this is probably more explanatory than all the others. I think and I hope that you could find many answers, by reading it. {linebreak}{linebreak} Miss Kendra from Boston, answer to Miss Denise from Montreal. Believe it or not, it is exactly what they have written. {linebreak}{linebreak} Hello, We are planning to travel to Italy in October and plan to rent the Brunelleschi apartment at Villa Cafaggiolo. I understand that you rented an apartment at this Villa in the past (your name was given to me by the owner, Mr. Pucci as a referral), and would like to obtain your review on it. I greatly appreciate the time you will take to provide me with this. Best regards, Denise. {linebreak}{linebreak} Hello Denise, {linebreak} sorry for the bit of delay with my response � work has been a bit hectic this week and I certainly wish I was back at Villa Cafaggiolo drinking wine, eating fabulous cheese and listening to the church bells on the hill across the way! {linebreak} I can�t say enough wonderful things about the Pucci family, their Villa, the Giotto apartment and the time we had there. We were there last May-June for 3 weeks. We were 2 families and a total of 3 children and there was plenty of space for all. My friend and her family loved it so much, they rebooked for this year � just staying in one of the smaller apartments as there aren�t so many of them this time. Hopefully I�ll be able to return next year. {linebreak} The apartment has a wonderful feel to it, and we felt right at home from the first day. Comfy beds, lovely sheets, and a great mix of old rustic farmhouse yet new bathrooms. The patio overlooks an incredible view, and is a great spot for an outdoor barbeque. It�s quiet, serene, in the middle of beautiful vineyards and olive groves � yet only 20 mins from Florence. {linebreak} The town of Pontassieve at first glance is not as quaint and charming as the other surrounding Chianti road towns, but actually has a cute old city center you just have to look a bit for it. We found some wonderful restaurants right down the hill. Some of the most fun we had was just piling in the care and seeing what adorable town we�d end up in. It is so beautiful there � absolutely breathtaking. I�m getting so nostalgic just writing this email!!! {linebreak} It was really one of the best vacations we�ve had, and we�ve gone to variety of places. I don�t know how you found Villa Cafaggiolo, but we found it online, and it was a bit nail-biting for us to book a place that we only saw website pictures of � but it�s a gem. {linebreak} The Pucci�s are accommodating and helpful, yet are also very respectful of everyone�s privacy. We enjoyed meeting the other guests as well around the pool. {linebreak} It was just a lovely trip, I know I�ll be back there someday. {linebreak} Ciao!!! Kendra Hello Kendra, Thank you so much for your comments. As you did, we found Villa Cafaggiolo on the internet and were a little concerned about depositing money without references and having to rely on pictures from the internet. But your comments totally reassured me and I am now exited about having the good luck of finding this villa on the internet. I can now plan other stuff and not worry about the Villa. Thank you again for taking the time to get back to me and giving us tips on different things. Ciao, Denise.
