The location is absolutely perfect — just a few minutes from San Gimignano, so you never feel cut off from everything, yet the moment you step onto the property, you feel completely immersed in the Tuscan countryside. The garden is stunning, the bedding is incredibly comfortable, and the overall experience honestly exceeded our expectations — better than the photos. What really made the stay special, though, was the service. The owners are wonderfully warm and attentive, always ready to meet your needs without being intrusive. Truly a 4-star level of hospitality in the heart of the countryside. We absolutely loved it and would come back without hesitation. Highly recommend!

We stayed here with our family at the end of April and the beginning of May, traveling with our 9-month-old baby and our 2-year-old son, and we had an absolutely fantastic experience. The room was beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. Every detail felt carefully thought out. The breakfast was truly amazing, with something new to enjoy every day, which made us look forward to coming down each morning. The cappuccino was simply heavenly. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful with everything, always going the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable, and they made our stay with small children easy and enjoyable. The property itself is immaculate, like a small paradise. It is peaceful, quiet, surrounded by greenery, and everything is so beautifully maintained. They truly made our holiday perfect, and we would absolutely recommend this place to everyone.

A great spot, sadly we only stayed there for one night, but after the madness of the Amalfi Coast it was a welcome peaceful haven for us. The grounds are stunning and the staff are superb, highly recommended.

Just a wonderful, magical place to stay. The care shown by all the staff was just perfect. The rooms are nice, but the highlights are the beautiful gardens and pool area, overlooked by the breakfast and dining area. A great breakfast, excellent itineraries to keep you busy and the most excellent Tuscan dinner evenings when you get back. Thank you to the whole team for making our holiday stay so memorable.

We had a fantastic time in this hotel, Luca and his staff go over and above to make sure everything is superb for their guests from the rooms, the pool and gardens to the superb food. Our suite was magnificent, cool with AC, and a separate lounge sitting area. Its located only 5 minutes drive from San Gimignano but Luca offers lots of advise and tips about other places in the area to visit. An absolutely magnificent hotel, superb accommodation and guests are made to feel very special.
