I wish we had more time to spend at this beautiful B&B. The surroundings were amazing. The host could not have been nicer...he was so helpful - giving... More

My husband and I have just spent one night at this amazing B&B. We were passing through the Chianti area of Tuscany for only one night and picked the accommodation because of the comments of fellow travellers, we were not disappointed. Our only disappointment was spending one night there. The setting is truley picturesque, the host Simone, was so charming... More

The views were absolutely breathtaking from the patio/balcony! The property is nestled in vineyards and the view overlooks Tuscany. We were greeted by the owner with a drink when we arrived. He was extremely nice and gave us excellent service while we were there. He knew some English and we knew some Italian so our conversations were limited, but he... More

Amazingly located in the green hills of Chianti with olive trees, wine and forest surrounding the charming, old house. Nice breakfast is served on a terrasse overlooking the amazing landscape. Friendly and helpful staff. Remotely located at the end of a gravel road, a none touristy town with supermarket and restaurants is only 3 km away. The Firentze/Siena road can... More

Hidden down a long and windy path behind the charming village of Machiavelli is a delightful B&B run by an equally charming proprietor named Simone. Steeped in history and boasting an original fountain of Machiavelli, this gorgeous facility greets you with the strong scent of lavender and roses, which are everywhere. The outside patio/deck overlooks an incredible vista of vineyards... More

We stayed at this lovely B&B for 3 nights. this is a 600 years old house, in the middle of a hill covered with vineyards. Simone's hospitality was great: at the first evening we got there late and he recommended a nearby restaurant which was still open and very good, he also instructed us on how to get to Florence,...

We stayed here in August for 3 nights, we had a little trouble getting to the hotel, but when we saw it we were amazed by the setting. The hotel is in a good location to visit Florence, Siena and San Gimignano. Simone who is mentioned in other reviews greeted us, showed us to our rooms & recommended 2 restaurants... More
