Wir waren für 12 Tage zu viert Ende September in dem sehr schönen, geräumigen Haus. Der Garten mit seinem
großen Pool ist traumhaft, der Ausblick ist fantastisch!
Die Ausstattung ist teilweise etwas in die Jahre gekommen (Herd, hier war eine der vier Kochplatten defekt; ein Wasserkocher fehlte;
die Kaffeemaschine kaum brauchbar; am zweiten Kühlschrank –nur für Getränke vorgesehen- schloss die Tür nicht komplett;
Sanitär z.B. die Duschköpfe…) und könnte in einigen Bereichen mal erneuert oder repariert werden.
In 2,5km Entfernung (Richtung Siena) kann man im Hofladen hervorragenden Rotwein und Olivenöl aus Eigenanbau ohne "Touristenzuschlag" erwerben und im 900m entfernten Palazzuolo ist das Ristorante La Scuderia sehr zu empfehlen, es wartet mit einem exzellenten Preis-/ Leistungsverhältnis und sehr freundlichem Service auf.
Fazit: ein wunderschöner Ort der Entspannung mit traumhafter Landschaft und unbedingt empfehlenswert!

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] We stayed for 12 days at the end of September in the very beautiful, spacious house. The garden with the large pool is gorgeous, the view is fantastic!
The equipment is partly a bit getting old (stove, here was one of the four hotplates broken, a kettle was missing;
the coffee machine hardly usable; on the second fridge - intended only for drinks - the door did not close completely;
Sanitary e.g. the shower heads ...) and could be renewed or repaired in some areas.
2.5 km away (direction Siena) you can buy excellent red wine and olive oil from thefarm without "tourist surcharge" in the farm shop and in Palazzuolo, 900m away, the Ristorante La Scuderia is highly recommended, with excellent value for money and very friendly service.
Conclusion: a beautiful place of relaxation with beautiful scenery and definitely recommended!

It's difficult to come up with one phrase, one idea or one emotion that encapsulates the experience at La Flora. My best effort is to call it "Perfection". Nine of us gathered at La Flora, traveling from all corners of the U.S. We had known each other for 30 years plus so finding a comfortable yet beautiful place to stay was a priority.

From the moment we arrived we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. Isla sat with us reviewing the gorgeous property and providing advice on local sites, restaurants and vineyards. All of her recommendations proved to be excellent.

Our first night (and for two more) we enjoyed the culinary talents of Francesca & Frederico. As you can imagine, food & wine were a central part of our daily celebration. Recommended to us through the owner, the food was fresh, beautiful & delicious. Francesca & Frederico were charming and added the perfect Italian touch to the evening.

La Flora is a spacious villa with a prolific amount of gathering & private spaces. Big, clean, beautiful and comfortable, it provides every appointment necessary for a 5 star vacation.

The days passed far too quickly with travels, relaxation by the pool and delightful trips into Lucca. La Flora provided nine life long friends with an opportunity of a lifetime.
