We loved our stay, and would come back and stay longer next time. We loved the views of the beautiful Tuscan countryside, and will try the oldest restaurant in Tuscany the next time we come back (it was closed this time). The owner of the B&B was very nice, and we loved visiting with his cats too😻!!!!

Beautiful property surrounded by vineyards, Tuscan hills. All day you can hear birds singing and the smell of jasmine throughout the property. The host is attentive and kind, and prepared an incredible breakfast that you can enjoy indoors or on the terrace outdoors. My only regret is not staying for more nights!

Hidden cute Tuscan paradise

Simone is a fantastic host and manages this property very well. It is a very cute villa, with a nice pool and the surroundings and the view are amazing. The breakfast was a typical Italian one ( brioche with jam and cappuccino:) and Simone is happy to accommodate you with any request. Overall, a great price quality ratio and will gladly be back to this spot.

Ótimo lugar

Adoramos a estadia, com certeza voltaremos. Cada detalhe da estadia foi cuidado com muito zelo pelo proprietário. O único problema foi que o Google nos mandou para um lugar um pouco diferente, que nos causou alguns problemas, mas isso nada tem a ver com a pousada.
