What a wonderful little B&B, very centrally located to most Tuscan sites. Mario, the owner and father, is a pure delight. ALways smiling and helpful with regional info. He makes the most delicious cakes for breakfast as well as fresh fruit and his homemade jams. His son Carlo is the chef in the attached Osteria and his wife, Manuela, is... More

Can't say enough good things about this place. Mario was so attentive without being intrusive. Very helpful in choosing sights to see and in how to get there. Room was very comfortable, B&B was set in the middle of beautiful Tuscan countryside. Ate at the Osteria 4 times, the food was so good. Osteria is small, holds only about 20,... More

My husband and I stayed up the road at Villa Fontelunga and they sent us to La Lodola for dinner. We fell in love with this family restaurant and the food was outstanding. The menu changes every day but think small Italian kitchen, authentic cuisine, personal service. We went back for a 2nd visit before we left. This was a... More

For couples this is a perfect place. The host, Mario and his family, made every effort to make this a great stay. Our room was small but in good condition and with A/C. Surroundings are just magnificent and the breakfast and overall service perfect. While the closest town, Foiano, is very small you the restaurant at La Lodola is great.... More

Most of all staying somewhere... More

On arrival we were welcomed by the amazing Mario (an absolute super star)! He takes such pride in this family run house which is styled to perfection, every room being a little... More

I could not recommend La Lodola more highly. This B&B is one of the best I have ever been too. Mario and his family absolutely spoilt my friends and I and ensure we had an exceptional experience when we stayed there recently for 3 nights. Their service was fabulous, they were friendly and helpful and the food was out of... More

La Lodola is beautiful, thanks to (Super) Mario and all his hard work. It has so much characture, and has been restored to perfection. The food is delicious, and the staff (Especially Mario) are great!

A wonderful house with a genuine gentlemen at its helm. The house is beautifully furnished and the view from the pool area is stunning. Free wifi a welcome bonus. Above all, the hospitality shown to us by Mario was the absolute highlight of a highly enjoyable stay, and especially his fantastic breakfasts including homemade cakes and jams. Cannot recommend highly... More
