Casa ai Carfini
Was waren die Highlights Ihres Urlaubs? 1. Die Toskana insgesamt in ihrem grünen frühlingsfarbenem Outfit, wie wir es uns gewünscht hatten. Unser letzter Aufenthalt im Juli/August 2003 hatte uns die Toskana vorwiegend gelb und braun präsentiert, was wir auch als sehr schön empfanden. 2. Städte wie Siena oder Montepulciano, die wir schon kannten aber immer wieder schön sind.
Wie war Ihr Gesamteindruck von der Unterbringung? Angenehme typisch toskanische Optik außen und innen, ruhige Lage - bestens geeignet für erholsame Tage. Die Ausstattung hat uns sehr gefallen, war gepflegt und zweckmäßig. Sehr angenehm war, dass für jede Familie bzw. Mietpartei ein separates Bad zur Verfügung stand.
Gab es unangenehme Überraschungen?
1. Nicht zu allen Elektrogeräten waren die Stecker passend zum italienischen Steckdosenstandard. Der Verwalter hat uns abernoch am Abend des Anreisetages eine Verteilersteckdosenleiste zukommen lassen und das Problem war damit behoben! Vielleicht wäre ein entsprechender Hinweis zur Ausstattung auf der Homepage sinnvoll.
2. Stromausfall am Abreisetag - ich habe mich aber an den außerhalb des Hauses befindlichen Hausanschluss mit der Hauptsicherung erinnert und die Sicherung wieder eingeschaltet.
Haben Sie andere Anmerkungen? Ständig Utensilien von der Anzahl her prüfen/prüfen lassen. Es fehlte z.B. ein Teelöffel.

I went on holiday with my family and we range from 60 years to 2 years so finding a villa to suit all our needs was proving to be quite tricky. When I found your website I just felt a sense of relief

I can't be more pleased with the service To-Tuscany provided. Dick Calabro was especially helpful answering all of my pre-trip questions in a most helpful and timely fashion.

I like To Tuscany, partly because it has a tremendous range of villas, and partly because (unlike many companies) it has an excellent website that provides what you really want when choosing a villa.

Our accommodation, which cost less than £800 for the week, is in a converted stone farmhouse next to a 12th Century Franciscan chapel. There is a pergola shaded by vines round the back here we quickly settle into a rhythm of eating long pasta suppers while the shadows lengthen.
