Read More...We in August 2019 in the house of Giovanna and Cristiano and felt very comfortable there. It is a terraced middle house that is very close to the historic old town of Prato. The village is about 20 minutes away from Florence by car. From Prato you can reach many places in Tuscany and the sea via the motorway. The house is fully developed and has several bedrooms. Furthermore there is a terrace with a small garden. Thus the house is very suitable for families with children. Everything is available. The kitchen is well equipped. We have also taken over the care of the two cats. This was very uncomplicated. Both cats were peaceful and clean. In summary it was a nice stay and we can highly recommend an exchange with Giovanna and Cristiano. Michael Kleisel

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Prato is a town very close to Florence, with a tiny and beautiful medieval center and an important contemporary art museum. It is a very good place to stay if you want to visit Florence and Tuscany, because is near to main highways and Pisa or Florence airport, is not very expensive, with less traffic and noise than Florence. The house has 3 bedrooms (one with a double bed, one with a 1,5 size bed, the last with a single bed) and in the studio we have a sofà bed too. We have two wonderful kids, a dog, a cat and a turtle. We live in a small cottage with a tiny garden at the border of the medieval center of Prato so you can easily reach it and every service you need (shops, train station, restaurants, bars, etc) is few minutes of walk.
