Villa Sassolini

There are horse riding facilities are nearby but book well in advance in summer months. We were unable to make a reservation at short notice as the next reservation available was two weeks after we had returned home. Don't take a taxi from the hotel to one of the only two local restaurants on the day that the hotel one is closed. We were charged just short of €70 for a booked return journey which was onle a few km each way. The explanation given was that the driver has to drive all the way from the local town. It ended up costing about the same as the meal.

Although Villa Sassolini came highly recommended by Mr & Mrs Smith, I would like to add that the hotel is fantastic and so was our stay.

We had a great time, so relaxing and peaceful it was as if someone had turned the volume down. The hotel is just far enough away from anywhere else that you start to think you have made a wrong turn, but when you arrive you are treated to unrivalled hospitality and breathtaking views.

The room was superb, the decor fantastic and the food untraditional but excellent accompanied by a difficult choice from an extensive wine cellar.

All in all, we couldn't have asked for more.

Thanks very much.

As a surprise my boyfriend, and now fiancé, took me to Villa Sassolini for a romantic weekend away. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect weekend, from the VIP lounge at the airport to the fantastic views overlooking Tuscany from our suite in Villa Sassolini! We would both like to thank Mr and Mrs Smith for helping to make this the most magical engagement possible.
