We have just returned from our stay at 6Stanco with wonderful hosts Ruth and Andrea.
Normally, I am ready for home after a few days away but I didn’t want to leave. On day two, the villagers set up their annual bingo event in the courtyard and we were made to feel very welcome and included. Our teenage daughters won a huge hamper of Local produce.
A few days later we were able to go to the village pizza event - all the 6Stanco guests went along for pizza and drinks.
During the week, Ruth and Andrea also invited all their guests to eat together one evening and we enjoyed some lovely home cooked treats.
We were easily able to visit Bologna (we were able to catch the train from from Grizzana Morandi) and Florence (an hours drive - the trains were not running that day) which were both beautiful.
We discovered a lovely gelateria in Vergato, a great pizzeria which took us back to the 80s - in a good way - (Brace).
The shared pool was a real plus at the end of a hot day.
Thank you to Ruth and Andrea. Your hospitality was tremendous and we’d love to come back soon!
