Tosco's word

For a group of eight, Villa Bel Giardino has the advantage: four bedrooms, two bathrooms, air conditioning, a equipped kitchen and a private pool, with a Toscane Cachée rating of 7.9 vs. 7.4 for Villa Clodia. Villa Clodia, for its part, suits a couple who want to be close to the Saturnia thermal baths, 15 minutes away, with breakfast and a restaurant on site, even though air conditioning is not confirmed there.
