Fantastic Stay

We had a lovely stay at Lastra a Signa. The house was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The pool was all lovely to relax in with the hot weather. Meaghan was a great host throughout our stay and organised a chef for us one evening which was superb.

Definitely need a car if you have luggage

This place has a great view. To get to the view, it is a steep and narrow driveway. There are steps to every level. The impression given in the description is a reasonable walk to the train, which is true when going down the hill to the train station.It rained heavily a few days and there was soot from the range hood covering the range and counter. We needed to vacuum and wipe alot to get it reasonably usable. The pool is nice. The beds were comfortable. Overall we had an enjoyable stay.

Perfect stay for a perfect week

We were here with 6 friends and thorougly enjoyed every day at this house! The kitchen was stocked with all essentials (Salt, Olive Oil from the family of the host, etc.) and every utensil you might need to cook; the pool was nicely kept and inviting for a day of relaxing; the sourroundings were very quite and you really had your privacy - all in all a perfect stay for the perfect week with friends. The only topic worth noting would be that the house is on a hill, with a 5 minute drive to the next public road and the city - so if you wish to dine out frequently this house is not for you. We however loved our stay here and would be more than thrilled to come back!

Perfect Tuscan Family Vacation

Loved the location. Plenty of privacy, but only about a half mile from town and about a mile from the train station. Meaghan was very attentive to all our needs. Plenty of room for 9 people. Take the cooking class, it was lots of fun.

Fun family holiday

It’s a great location and space for a family. We had 8 adults and 2 kids and enough space for all. It wasn’t very kid friendly as there are lots of stairs in the house and the small single room used by the children was next to a very high wooden staircase. Pool is lovely but surrounded by grass so spray yourself for the mosquitos. We had a lovely time away and very close to Florence, Pisa and Siena.

Belle maison mais propriétaire malhonnête

La maison et la situation sont tres agréables. En revanche, nous avons des coupures d'électricité quotidiennes et eu la désagréable surprise de voir la propriétaire nous réclamer en fin de séjour plus des sommes considérables (et sans justificatif chiffré) pour frais d'électricité ! Face à notre insatisfaction et nos questions la seule réponse a été de nous dire que l'Italie ne produisait pas assez d'électricité,qu'elle était chère et que les coupures venaient de la compagnie d'électricité qui coupait le courant (ce qui était évidemment faux puisque toute la ville et nos voisins restaient éclairés).

Loved it - brilliant location

Family holiday with friends too - loved the place, great location, 4 bedrooms and a 5th on the landing if required, which we did. Lots of bedding and good sized accommodation. Easy drives to local parking in Florence and good connection to Pisa. Italy is a great place to spend time and this is a great location to do it from
