Lovely apartment in foothills of Florence

I have had the pleasure of staying in Gabriella’s apartment in the beautiful foothills above Florence for nine months. It is a stunningly beautiful location among the olive trees and vineyards and she has been wonderfully accommodating and attentive to make my stay comfortable. The apartment is well appointed and well maintained and any issues or questions were immediately addressed. The location, while close enough to Florence to enjoy all it has to offer, is a pleasant escape from the noise and congestion of the city (and the heat in the summer.) I was even invited to join Gabriella’s family and friends in the autumn harvest of olives on the property. Picking olives on a beautiful Tuscan hillside in the late afternoon as the sun was setting with a breeze rich with smells and the lively Italian conversations around me, was truly a feast for the senses. It is a memory that will be with me forever! Highly recommended.
