Spectacular Summer Sanctuary
Our extended family (3 generations) spent two weeks in July at Borghetto Calcinaia, and we are so grateful we did. It was the perfect sanctuary to beat the heat of the summer and escape the crowds in Tuscany.
We relished the gorgeous views of the lake and surrounding countryside, enjoyed swimming in the pool every day of our stay, and delighted in star gazing at night upon a sky unobstructed by city lights.
The houses are all very comfortable, very clean, and spacious. When not at the pool or exploring charming nearby villages, we passed time chatting in the large comfortable living room or in the outdoor dining area. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. The host facilitated a catered birthday celebration meal at the Borghetto, which was amazingly prepared by Chef Monica and her team.
While sad to have to leave, we are so grateful for the opportunity to experience Borghetto Calcinaia and the surrounding less touristy part of Tuscany. Many thanks to Ben and Dale for facilitating our stay! We hope we can return again one day.
