Agriturismo di Baroni Enzo

We caught sight of so many stars one night, it felt magical. The place is tucked into the forest, and it's lovely, very clean, and spacious. Everything we needed was there, including a barbecue grill, and the hosts were very kind. I'd recommend it to all my friends.

The climb uphill from Dicomano was manageable after the first day, and the mosquitoes are plentiful, so bring repellent. That said, this was just what I wanted: quiet away from city noise and stress, surrounded by nature, fresh air, and farm life. Even with 36 degrees outside in July, the thick stone walls kept the inside cool. The kitchen had all the amenities, the decor was nice, and the terrace was a lovely spot for evenings. Highly recommended if you enjoy this kind of peaceful setting.

The hosts made a real difference to our stay. They were warm, helpful, and clearly wanted us to enjoy ourselves. They went out of their way to make my little boy feel welcome, and couldn't have done more for us. They're special people, and I hope we'll return someday. We spent two weeks here and barely missed television. We read, chatted, and watched the mountains in the evenings. The flat screen had Italian channels and a couple of English speaking ones, though we would have liked an English news channel. There was free WIFI. No washing machine, but the laundry room had a deep sink and clothes airer, and things dried in the sun within a couple of hours. The apartment was spacious, comfortable, fully equipped, and spotless. In the kitchen there was a four ring gas hob, electric oven, double sink, fridge freezer, table for 8-10, large fireplace, and wood burning oven. They supplied condiments, including their delicious farm olive oil. Downstairs were three bedrooms and a bathroom. We used two double rooms with huge comfortable beds, lovely furniture, and shuttered windows. The bathroom had a toilet, bidet, sink, and shower. We didn't see the two upstairs bedrooms or bathroom, but the photos seemed to represent the rooms we used accurately. The apartment overlooks a lovely garden scented with rosemary and lavender when the breeze carries it. There is a terrace with plenty of seats and a table for eating outside. The setting is beautiful, about 3Kms from Dicomano, with mountain views and the river Sieve. Fruit trees, vegetables, and vines grow on the slopes, alongside hens and the farm's Limousin cattle.

We had a fully equipped residence with a lovely view over the picturesque garden. The hosts were great, and it's a beautiful, peaceful place to unwind near Florence. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to relax.
