Giacomina - Converted stone barn, mountain village, spectacular views, pool

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay a 6Stanco. Ruth is an excellent host, providing us with lots of advice both before and during our stay. The appartment is very comfortable and well equipped. Stanco is a small village but the local shop in Grizzana is well stocked and larger supermarkets are available in nearby towns. Both Florence and Bologna can be visited from the local train station, with rail fares making it a cheaper option than driving. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance. We only visited Nel Castagneto where we had excellent lunches and wine.Definitely recommend visiting this area of Italy

After some confusion with the details of the property description, Ruth and Andrea were immensely accommodating in switching us to the room I originally intended. I cannot thank yhem enough.

We loved this property - it was like living in a tree house with a loft. Excellent host and facilities. Easy access via train to Bologna. Avoid the Bologna chaos with a calming train ride back to the local station. We will stay here again

We had a wonderful vacation at 6stanco. It’s a very great place for the whole family and Ruth is a very helpful and attentive host. Thanks!

Just a perfect getaway. A beautiful little house, on a stunning property. Awesome hikes in the area! Ruth is a great host, very caring!

very warm welcome, detailed introduction to everything you need to know for the stay and what's around; very clean flat, well equipped with everything you need, even the small things; Ruth is super-friendly and discrete, very helpful in all cases; this is a well maintained private property, pool is super to cool-down, sun at that pool from early morning till later evening (be careful...); phenomenal view into the countryside; so if you would like to relax, this is a perfect place (we had only 2 other guests during our stay); fast internet in the flat and even outside at the pool Ivonne & Frank

A wonderful property in a fantastic setting. Ruth was a perfect host giving us useful information. Village was beautiful and the property provided every comfort you need for a wondetful holiday

We had a wonderful time, the cottage was just right for us and it was no problem that our son came later in the week to stay - Ruth simply prepared everything for him on the day he arrived! The surroundings are fantastic, the beautiful garden with a view and the pool were just what we were looking for. Great places to eat out are also nearby and the little kitchen is perfect for preparing meals as well.

No stress, birds are singing in the morning time, nice contact to the owners. One of the best places I ever have been!

We truly had an amazing time renting this fabulous studio country house. This property had stunning views of mountains & countryside it had a veranda style window and bi folding doors. With open wooden beams, tall cieling with lots of light and a large framed bookcase filled with a great selection of reading books. A self contained little kitchen well stocked with utensils and kitchenware. A lovely solid wooden kitchen table with wooden chairs. A comfy long sofa and a tv and sat tv box. A clothes rail with lots of hangers and a large wooden chest with 6 drawers. Lots of little lights plenty of electric points and plenty of pamphlets and maps with information on the surrounding areas and of the total region. The bathroom was clean and large with a power shower and flushing toilet lots of hot water and good central heating. The little mezzanine bedroom had a very large clean cozy bed with lovely cotton bedding. Bedside cabinets and lights. With a long wodden chest with little individual boxes. We slept so very well for 5 nights. Beautiful space to relax and recupetate with fantastc views. Great communication very fast responses in both English and Italian speaking owners. We booked 2 days before arriving and everyone was completely super about our very short notice booking. The owners were very kind and thoughtful so very friendly and sociable to me and my partner. We had a fabulous few hours with them chatting drinking and eating cheese. They shared their local knowlwdge and experiences with us making us feel utterly relaxed and part of the family. We thank them from our heart for their generousity and time. We could not asked for a better romantic property searching vacation. Cannot wait to return. Thanks so much also to Claudia who was brilliant.
