TESTIMONIALS, VILLA IL TURCO

[ Villa Il Turco ]

Good morning Cristiano.

Just a few lines to let you know that we all had the most wonderful and relaxing summer holiday staying at the Villa Il Turco.

The Villa and Tuscany was far better than can be imagined by reading and looking at internet pictures or books. It allowed us to step back in time and feel and breathe the real history of a magnificent building and a delightful and charming area of Italy.

Perhaps words can not describe the true feeling we all felt but ?Falling in Love? is perhaps the closest.

Also the hospitality shown by your father and all the staff was overpowering, we were not treated as tourists but as though we had been close friends for many years and the food and wine, eaten in a beautiful surrounding, will be sadly missed.

Our visits to Florence were very educational and all the Museums and Galleries we visited were wonderful and travelling on the local bus made us feel part of the community.

We will, having fallen in love with your country and people, without doubt visit Italy again next year to see more of the area and hopefully travel to different regions and perhaps stay once again in IL TURCO (with a better fluency in Italian)

Please pass on to all at the Villa (and Mario who gave us a tour of the Wine Cellars), especially you father, our warmest thanks to all who made our stay so happy.

Thanking you also for all your help and information given to us.

Kindest Regards

Victor and Phillip , Linda and Lucinda

Comments Villa Il Turco

What an enchanting villa. The pictures do not do this house any justice. It is breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly clean. The grounds and the surrounding countryside are amazing. There is even a working vineyard and a cellar underneath the house! Waking up every morning was a much anticipated event. It is also so we situated. We were 15-20 minutes outside of Florence by car and the surrounding towns within 2 hours are enough to keep anyone enthralled.

Our 2 week vacation should have been 1 month. The family that owns the villa are the nicest people on earth. They were gracious, helpful, fun, etc. They also run one of the best restaurants in the entire area. If you are into food and wine, there is also an amazing restaurant in Cerbaia. It's called La Tenda Rossa (The Red Tent). Be prepared to pay a lot, but it will be the most amazing dining experience you'll ever have.

Dear Cristiano,

We just got back from Lake Como and are happy to be home, finally. But
we had an absolutely perfect stay at Villa Il Turco and thank you for everything you and your family did to make it that way.

I wish we could have stayed another week. We hope to see you again sometime, at the guest rooms across the street from the Villa.

My best to you, Wendy Carter
