"We are having fun telling stories about our trip, and your place is at the top...literally. John doesn't have quite the flair Mauro does in painting a picture of what an undertaking it was, or how you've transformed it, but he tries. It's hard to put into words how much character your property has. We have great memories" - Jenn & John Holden
"I just wanted to thank you again for all of your help while we were staying
in your beautiful home. The numerous phone calls for dinner reservations, and help with directions were invaluable. Joesph and I had a
glorious time, and were able to completely relax and takein the gorgeous surroundings. It will be nice to come back and visit some day.
" - Brendan Gill
"We arrived back in England safely after a night in Pisa and a good flight back. The sun is finally shining in England but we all miss Italy and your lovely place so badly. Thank you for a wonderful stay and your own warmth and care. We are all still talking about the beautiful house, stunning scenery, good food and wine, amazing art and enchanting towns and hope to be back next year. Without doubt our best ever family holiday!" - Iain & Rachel Blaikie
"Just wanted to say hello and thank you again for just a wonderful stay at Cellole. We have showed our pictures and related our experiences to so many of our friends and family that it is hard to believe that it has been weeks since our return. Amy and I had such a great vacation, it was exactly what we wanted it to be (and the olive oil made it too!). " - Amy & Charlie Dvorskak
"We just wanted to thank you for hosting our visit to Tuscany. We enjoyed your beautiful Villa and hospitality tremendously. Your knowledge and advice on how to get around was invaluable.
