We discovered this charming B&B in 2004 and have stayed there every May since. Family owned and run, when you stay here you experience the real Italy. Set in a small village where English is seldom spoken in the heart of Brunello country, yet you are minutes from the main road to Grosseto. The rooms are beautifully decorated. There is a "community" dining area/living room that is shared by whomever is staying there. Three bedrooms adjoin it, each with a private bath. A tented patio gives you a place to sit and drink wine, enjoy the garden and scenery, visit or read. There is a wonderful restaurant just a short walk down the street. Also a nicely stocked alimentari (small supermarket) as well as another that carries many typical, local products. One of my favorite things about this B&B is the linen sheets on the beds, soooo comfortable and available for purchase in a lovely shop in the village of Montalcino. We have paid 60 euro a night but we stay a week. The price may be a bit higher if you only stay one day. This B&B is located across the road from the entrance to the Banfi estate. If you go there for the fabulous wine tasting dinner at the ristorante it is a quick and easy drive back to the B&B.
