“We had a wonderful time discovering Tuscany for the first time. La loggia is truly a treasure. We loved the architecture and wonderful interiors. You are so generous to share your special place with us.” Patty and Michael, South Carolina, April 2011
“We had the most wonderful time in Tuscany! Your apartment was so beautiful and warm that we felt at home immediately. We loved the views from the apartment, especially the countryside, the sheep, the bunnies and listening to the cuckoo bird, which we initially thought was a clock. We also enjoyed the beautiful pool which overlooked the countryside. It was truly an amazing view on top of this mountain with the most amazing stars at night!!!! We loved all the towns. Radicofani was a sweet little town with a great grocery store that we frequented alot. The night before we left we went to La Grotta restaurant for dinner. We had the most delicious food and wine! We also visited the beautiful town of Pienza and bought lots of cheeses. Then we visited Montepuliano for their wines; Torre del Mozza, a beach with a castle on it; Lago Trasimeno, a beautiful lake; Perguia, wonderful desserts, candy, took the train to Florence to see David, museums and walked across the Ponte Vecchio Bridge with its amazing shops; and put our feet in the Medici Baths in Bagno Vignoni. This was a trip that exceeded all our expectations. Tuscany has got to be one of the most beautiful places in the world, and we truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. Our daughter, Karen was in awe of everything we saw and did, and I took 336 pictures of beautiful Tuscany so I would not forget everything we saw. Thanks again for letting us stay in your beautiful apartment and experience the beauty of Tuscany!” Ann, Jim and Karen , South Carolina, May 2011

“Bellissimo! Great place, great tips! We visited your top recommendations and loved every one! Every meal was fantastic!
La loggia is so serene--we took awesome pictures of cows and sheep. We definitely hope to be back!” Norma and Bernie, South Carolina, Sept. 2011
“We had a fabulous time! The apartment was a comfy and welcoming base to go out from and return to. And the bunnies were a delight! We loved Radicofani! The folks at Il Pama became good friends, Ada at the Alimentari in town was a love, and we still think about the rabbit dishes at La Grotta. We enjoyed both restaurants you recommended in Pienza, particularly Latte de Luna -- where we had eaten on a previous trip.
George and I were happy to return to Sinalunga and Locanda del Amorosa, where we'd stayed before. We loved the market there (Monday) and ate a scrumptious lunch at the inn. We so enjoyed just driving through the countryside – San Casciano, Cortona, Orvieto, Montepulciano, on and on. . .
The whole Tuscany experience was wonderful! Thank you for sharing your place with us!”

“We are starting to get our feet on the ground after our 3 week trip. Your restaurant and entertainment suggestions were right on target. We especially enjoyed the Common Table lunch at Avignonesi vineyard. Our favorite town was Orvieto. Randy and I went twice. At the restaurant there, La Paloma, we had the homemade pasta with truffles-yum! Loved the underground tour and duomo. The views from LaLoggia were fantastic. Enjoyed the bunnies. We nicknamed the two black baby rabbits “The Evil Twins.” They were most feisty. Thanks for sharing your Tuscan home.” Barbara and Randy, South Carolina, Sept. 2011
