JL'S DIARY in Luxury holiday rental villa with pool Il Pietraio
I booked Il Pietraio for a group of 10 friends and we all loved it!
We had great fun trying out the outdoor pizza oven and the massive bbq.
There is plenty of space, and plenty of bathrooms, so we didn't get in each others' ways but there are lots of places to be sociable in too.
The owners were very helpful too.
We'd go back!
