We stayed at Frances' Lodge for 5 days in March 2007. It truly felt like our little home! We had an apt with our own living area/kitchenette and our own porch and patio. Every night we would leave our breakfast order outside our door and the next morning we would have huge cappucinos, eggs, breakfast pastries, etc in the lodge's... more

We planned our stay at Frances' Lodge in the middle of a two week trip through Italy. It was, by far, our favorite part of the trip. Although early May is not supposed to be the highest tourist season, we got totally burned out of the crowds in Rome, Florence, Venice and even Siena. We stayed 5 nights and Frances... more

My husband and I have just had the most wonderful 4-day stay at Frances' Lodge. It certainly lived up to all our expectations. We were looked after so well by owners Frances and husband Franco. Listen to what they have to tell you. Their advice and suggestions on what to do and where to go are invaluable. Especially if, like... more

Stayed for 3 nights 21st - 23rd June. Lovely setting, watching fireflies by the pool at night. Hosts very welcoming, breakfast area and views excellent. Downside: Pain to get into Siena - easiest to get a radio cab 10- 15 euros each way. Walked to bus stop, wouldn't like the walk in the dark with no pavements. Or drive and... more

We are a little late sending this in, but we just had to write about what a wonderful time we had at Frances' Lodge last September. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer than 3 nights, as it would have been lovely to sit and veg in the garden or lounge by the pool. You cannot help but... more

We only stayed one night here and wish we would have booked more nights! We loved our stay here so much that we want to return and make this our base to see more of Tuscany. Located outside of Siena, this b&b is conveniently located on 9 acres. Frances met us outside at our car and gave us a personal... more

This was our first stop on our trip to Italy. A very hard act to follow. Frances and Franco were so welcoming and very, very accommodating. Our room, the white room, was very nice, quiet and comfortable. The bathroom was very nice, and had a nice sized shower!! The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. The pool fabulous! The breakfast each... more

We arrived at Frances' and were greeted by Frances and Franco, the owners and folks who redesigned the most beautiful place we stayed at in Italy. There were 4 of us in 2 rooms and we were there for 5 nights and would have been there longer if we hadn't seen everything within a days drive in Tuscany. (a word... more

We returned home to Hawaii and tried to settle into our Hawaiian lifestyle after a visit in Cortona with our son and daughter in law and a memorable stay at Frances Lodge in Siena. We cannot speak of Italy without mentioning Frances Lodge as one of the highlights of our stay. Our delightfully accommodating host and hostess, Franco and Frances,... more
