This beautiful villa is situated ideally for visiting Florence.



The villa is beautifully furnished and is completely private.



A few minutes drive away, in Lastra a Signa, there is a station which has excellent connections to the centre of Florence, an ideal way to avoid the hassle of driving and parking in Florence.
A client's comment: The service was excellent from everyone I dealt with:  Pam, Sean, etc.  The information received was efficient and honest.  The customer service seemed personal rather than a contract.  I also think the price was fair and worth every cent or euro.
The accomodation, Villa Mina, was excellent.  We especially enjoyed meeting the owners' daughter.  Although the rooms were beautifully decorated and situated, we spent little time inside except for the preparation of meals and sleep. The views and garden were beautiful. It was perfect for our needs, a lovely villa with privacy, and with unobtrusive but terrific caretakers.  The pool was a big plus, a great place to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. The Ipercoop served our needs for food, and we felt quite at home despite some language difficulties. It was nice to know we could call Sean or his lovely wife for advice.
I would emphasize the convenience of the train station, a really efficient way to get into Florence instead of driving.  I would also encourage renters to have a cell phone as it served us well to have contact in certain situations.
To-Tuscany was recommended by another couple who had used the service, and I would be unreserved in my praise for the web site and for the company.
It was everything I planned for and I know my friends would say the same.  I could not have asked for more. Everyday offered beautiful weather, and we all felt free to sightsee or relax.  It was filled with highlights.... many different towns and cities... all offered something special.   I am most grateful for the opportunity.
