Guest comments
Lindsay and friends, Lincolnshire. August 2009 - I stayed in Maurino apartment in August 2009 and what a fantastic week! This old olive mill has been restored beautifully with charm yet total luxury. There is direct access to the terrace with amazing views over the Tuscan hills. We went to Florence for the day by train and it was really easy and cheap, this is the way I would recommend.
Andy from Cottingham. August 2009 - Just returned from a week in Maurino apt. with my teenaged kids. What a great place! Spotlessly clean, stylish and comfortable. The pictures on the website really do not do the place justice. One thing to bear in mind is that it is a 5-10 min drive to nearest restaurants part of which is down a steep private track, this didn't bother us - no pain, no gain!
The famous 5, Liverpool. August 2008 - Just returned from a 10 day stay in Olivastro. Clean, modern, very comfortable, well equipped, good welcome pack, plenty of clean towels, bedding. We hope to return soon.
