My wife and I have been working  in marketing and tourism for all of our lives in Padua, where we had a base for many years.  To get out of the hustle and bustle, we decided moving to Tuscany was ideal for us.  Because we had friends in the area, we knew the region quite well from past visits and knew we wanted some place central and reasonably close to Highway A1.

We did not know the medieval village of Laterina before we moved here, but we knew Arezzo quite well, which is only about 9 miles  away.  The area’s central location, proximity to main art cities and preserved culture made our decision to locate here much easier.

Finding the house we wanted was not an easy task and changing it into a charming and pleasant holiday home proved even more difficult.  However, with hard work and dedication, we succeeded.  In fact, we love our location so much, we live here year-round!

Although sometimes tiring, our work is very rewarding.  We love it, thanks to the many people we’ve met during the years.  Whether it’s those who kept coming back, kept in touch or asked for our advice when choosing another area, our guests are what makes what we do special.

We like to say that our vacation home is “Managed by the owner” and “By professionals,” knowing very well the meaning of both sentences.  It is very difficult to do what we are doing without professionalism, but owning the property helps us to put more love in what we do.
