Great place to stay in Tuscany to visit Sienna, Florence and Arezzo! We stayed with our 3 children in a very nice apartment. Friendly staff, nice pool with terrific view, great restaurant with the best food and ofcourse wines.

What a fantastic choice we made - well located accomodation with a stunning view and pool. We had a real relaxing time just chilling around the pool, enjoying the scenery, food and excellent wines. Staff were very freinedly and most accomodating. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Located amongst hills, view on vineyards, olive trees and woods. The old-old building has a special athmosphere, the history really touches you.

Wow. If you are looking for the perfect Tuscan retreat this is it! Nestled in the hills overlooking vineyards and olive groves, this medieval village is a real find. The Rocco was renovated three years ago so it has the perfect balance of ancient fortress with modern and very elegant conveniences. The rooms were lovely and roomy. The breakfasts included... More

Executive summary: don't miss the wine tour or the wines at Rocca but stay elsewhere (although the appartments might be fine). My girlfriend and I spent 3 nights in a "suite" at Rocca during the last week of October. We arrived on a Sunday evening and found a sign saying "Knock on #10 to get your key". We searched the... More
