Dear Alberto, Mireia, Angela, Denise and all the Relais San Bruno:
Apart from the dramas on the way here, and our misunderstanding of directions, we had a really fabulous time!
Our week was very relaxing (as the week progressed we finally were able to enjoy the sun, the pool and the magical surroundings of Relais San Bruno!). The scenary was beautiful, breakfast was yummy (specially Angela’s chocolate cake).
Everyone’s hospitality was absolutely amazing!
The cooking classes were so much fun and we can’t wait to try the delicious recipes at home.
Looking forward to coming back again soon (hopefully with some luggage…)
All the best,
Love from the 2 aussi girls, whose luck is hopefully improving!!
P.S.: keep in touch and if you are in London or Perth sometime let us know

Dear Alberto, Mireia and everyone who helps make this home a magical one. One must start with a beautiful setting, but of course just a beautiful setting does not move one’s heart.

Hopefully with friends and recommend you to everyone who comes to Tuscany. Sincerely, Susan and Darrell

We really appreciated the relaxing quiet of the garden and the swimming pool. It was such fun having a swim while the swallows dived to within a hairs-width of the waters' surface. My compliments to all those responsible for this place, in particular the rooms, the garden and the greenhouse etc etc. Thanks and see you soon.

With my commendations
Alessia e Massimo – Italy – 07 August 2005
In a place like this, where the beauty of nature is in perfect harmony with the sensitive and generous owners and all their extremely busy collaborators, its hard non to reap the benefits to mind, body and soul.
Where the morning silence is broken by birdsong, and the nights are accompanied by the call of the crickets!
Maybe, in these conditions one can feel closer to God.
Nanà – Italy – 8 August 2005
What can I say that hasn't already been said !!
A place of rare beauty !!! (almost poetic)
