A lovely property with attention to detail both inside and out.
The location is wonderful with picture postcard views all around and great access to places of interest throughout Tuscany. I cannot thank the owner and his family enough for their hospitality, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Barbara for the assistance you gave my daughter and her fiance with their wedding plans.

Photos did not do the property justice - beautiful countryside! Villa was great except the oven didn't work. Amazing area of Italy, great base for exploring Tuscany.

We spent a week on our "grandparents" vacation at the Palazzo Rosadi beginning May 23, 2009 with our daughter, and her husband, his parents and our two granddaughters. It was a marvellous week. The Rosadis are friendly and accomodating. The house, the grounds, the pool are everything the pictures show and more. The countryside is what we dreamed Tuscany should be.

You will need a car and if possible, rent an automatic. Driving a manual transmission on the steep hills and tight parking spots is simply not fun. We took day trips to marvellous towns. Pienza was our favorite for its beauty and ease of parking which can be a major problem in other towns. Monterchi is a delight. We ate a very good dinner at the La Vecchis Osteria in the village. The owner of the only small grocery store makes his own wine which was surprisingly good.

We ate a very good, but expensive, dinner at the Risterante da Alighiero in the nearby town of Anghiari. The owner chef is from Germany and her husband offers an excellent wine menue.

We oviously recommend Plazzo Rossadi!

We have just spent a fantastic holiday at Villa Franello!!! From the time we arrived driving up from Lucca we just could not believe how gorgeous the property was. (the photos do not do it justice you have to see this). The villa is to a high standard. It was large enough for each part of our family group to have their own space if needed to relax & chill out both inside and out, this for us was a real plus as the garden was just something else.

We spent many days relaxing around the pool & soaking up the sun as well as enjoying walking in the surrounding countryside.

We loved the nearby hill towns of Loppeglia & Fiano, and all what you need for daily could be found in San Martion de Freddana. Ivalda was the perfect host as it could not have been better, as we felt immediately very welcome like at home. She prepared a brilliant homemade dinner for us on the first night. Excellent!

We are planning our return visit to Villa Nobile already & will definitely be recommending Franello to others.

Thanks for everything Ivalda.

Hermannsson and Family.
