The Borgo sicelle is an old village that have been renovated and turn into holidays appartments to rent. The appartments are properly renovated, nothing fancy but comfortable and the place provides many facilities. The noise isolation can be a problem with your neighbors have a different rythm that yours. But the main advantage is the central location in Tuscany, closed... More

This was a great base for our explorations of the Chianti area of Tuscany. The views from the patio and pool area are stunning - everything you would imagine of the Tuscan region!!! We had wine and cheese watching the sunset one evening and thought we were dreaming because it was so beautiful. Franco was very accommodating, giving us recommendations... More

Borgo Sicelle was such an amazing place to stay! It is located right in the heart of the Chianti Region of Tuscany. The views from our patio were simply amazing! Franco and his wife were so kind and accommodating. The buildings had such a warm and welcoming quality and it was very peaceful. I can't say enough about the panoramic... More

Our family group (all adults) stayed in the 3 bedroom apartment for 4 nights in early September, and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would return without hesitation.We found the apartment spacious, simply but very adequately furnished, and very clean. We purchased our daily provisions either at the nearby village of San Donato, or Castellina, used the apartment kitchen for... More

We have been going to Borgo Sicelle for the last 7 years, having found this gem of a place by chance on the internet. Franco and Silvia are the perfect hosts, attentive but not intrusive - nothing is too much trouble for them. Sicelle itself is on the top of a hill overlooking vineyards and olive groves - the views... More

This was my second stay at Sicelle and I was not disappointed! First off, the location is wonderful. Although it is a bit 'remote', it is in the heart of Chianti and a short drive from all of the Tuscan delights! And as you look out your window upon the rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves, you don't regret your... More

What can I say except this is one of the best places I have ever stayed in. Its simple, beautiful, cheap, had one of the best restaurants in Tuscany right across the street and ran by a lovely couple. Its perfect for exploring Florence, Sienna and Perugia, local vineyards and towns. Or, you can just lie by the sparklingly clean... More

Let me start off by saying that this place is a dream for families with kids. If you are looking for an affordable hub in Chianti, then this is it. However, if you are a young couple, as we are, I strongly suggest you book else where, unless really remote, hard to find, unvailable on GPS locations are what you... More

We had a wonderful week at Borgo Sicelle. Franco & Silvia were lovely and helpful. We travelled as a group of 3 families with 7 kids ages 3 to 12. The kids loved it as the grounds are spacious and they could run around and play games for hours. They also loved the table tennis and soccer game. The pool... More
