What Our Guest Says
"Lastra is the perfect location to explore Tuscany, Florence, Siena, and beyond. Two train options. The home we stayed in was very spacious and clean. Pool access was wonderful in the heat of July. The grounds are even more beautiful than expected covered in olive trees and grape vines. The hosts are very hospitable and available to ensure your comfort from bringing extra linens, to as many cases of their very own wine as you would like, and setting up day trips in Tuscany. I would absolutely recommend this stay and hope to return one day!"
We had a great two weeks! My son and his family stayed in Villa Cyprus 3, and were very comfortable with their air conditioning and we were in Villa Cyprus 2. The cooking class was probably the highlight for me...great cooks and fabulous food!. Blessings and many thanks to all
Last year, in Septmeber, my boyfriend and I rented out Villa Cyprus 3 on the Villa Pandolfini estate in Lastra a Signa for two weeks. We had , liked us very much and gave us many gifts of fruit and wine. I wonder if you have a vacancy for the villa or another villa on the same estate for 2 weeks
The holiday was great and the farm house was excellent. The people working at the farm house offices, we spoke too were very friendly and helpful so 10 out of 10 for service. You have a wonderful farm house! Many thanks for a most enjoyable holiday and a first class experience of country life
We had a most enjoyable stay in Villa Cyprus 3 in September when the rain eventually gave way to the sun!! We found the aaccommodationvery comfortable. It was really great experiencing the `real` Italy and so much better than staying in a hotel. Thankyou for all your help,
