The apartment was well situated (being five/ten minutes drive from Castellina in Chianti which was a lovely little town). The accommodation was excellent. The swimming pool lovely and the scenery breath taking. Having the option to have breakfast was great (breakfast was good). The staff were helpful and friendly. Whoever did the interior designing for these apartments did a superb job. The apartment we were in was simply, but beautifully decorated. Solid furniture . The whole place had such a good feel to it. It was also child friendly. We have two (very active) boys who are six and nine. It felt safe. Our only criticism was the lack of a toaster in the kitchen area and we could have done with some instructions on how to use the oven (we never did work out how to use it)! – There were instructions for the dishwasher and the washing machine but none for the oven. My husband would also have a liked a fan in our bedroom because it was very hot and obviously the apartments are not air conditioned. We would definitely recommend Borgo Pietrafitta to our friends and we would happily go back there.
