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😻!!!!

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.

The picture perfect scenery was beautiful. The small town (walking distance) has a great restaurant (reputed to be the oldest in Italy) and the villa to which Machiavelli was exiled and wrote his famous thesis, Il Principe.

We stayed for 4 nights (June/July 2019) and booked a triple occupancy room (1 double bed and 1 twin bed). We were 2 adults and 1 teenager (15 years). LOCATION: This was the best view/location of our trip. We had rented a car in Florence and got to the hotel in 30 min. We used Google maps to guide us and had no problems. The road leading to the hotel is bumpy, but the view is amazing. There was always parking available. ROOM: Our room was a good size, and quiet. But the air conditioning did make some noise a few times, which woke my husband up. It had a fridge, TV, hairdryer (wall unit), small desk and chair, wardrobe (with extra blankets) and 2 bed tables. The shower was small but not too tiny. The TV did not have any english channels working, so we listened to the France news channel instead. BREAKFAST: The view from the terrace where we could eat breakfast was breathtaking. The food was the same for the 4 mornings we were there, but it was very good. There were eggs, ham and another cold cut, cheese, fresh croissants and fresh bread, juice, plenty of fruits. The owner would prepare us the coffee we wanted (cappuccinos were very good). POOL: Very nice pool. Clean. The water was not very cold, because of the sun and it was very hot during our stay. There was some shade if needed. OTHER: The owner was very nice to us, always available. There are a few cats and bunnies. Lots of flowers. CONCLUSION : Best hotel of the trip! Our host was fantastic. We would go back anytime.

Love this home and Chianti
We had a wonderful stay. The room was very pretty and quiet. Beautiful location overlooking the wineyards. Nice walks, nearby pretty villages. Simone made tasty breakfast and yummy cappuccino!!! He was very helpful. We got there late and hungry. He served us delicious bread and Italien salami and prosciutto! That was so kind. The only complaint it took some time to heat the room because the evenings got cold. Otherwise I highly recommend this wonderful place. Chianti is gorgeous.
