“Fantastic piece of Tuscany in the Hunter”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 23, 2011 for a stay in October 2011

Very comfortable welcoming villa with all manner of extras. Three bedrooms allow separate areas for up to 3 couples. Despite the weather we had a very relaxing 3 night stay. Robyn made us very welcome on arrival. We will stay again. The grounds are superb and the outdoor area is very stylish.

Management response:

And what really nice guests Ken & his family were. more
