Nice Stay Away from the Crowds!

This place was so pretty and away from the touristy areas. We were able to see San Giamigano (sp?). Siena, Montepulciano, Montalcino was very close by. This place is in the middle of the prettiest part of Tuscany!! The place was very nice but could use some racks or hooks for your towels and a place to put your shampoo etc. by the shower. 😁

Idyllic hill village setting.

Lovely village house conversion, but not enough comfortable chairs for evenings. Also a pity that the open log fire was not operational.

Castelnuovo dell'Abate

Posto incantevole, tranquillo e rasserenante. Collegato a delle cittadine incantevoli. Perfetto per un viaggio rigenerante. Consigliato per amanti del vino. La casa molto accogliente, e silenziosissima. Il paese altresì carino, alle porte di questo una "vineria aperta" con cibo e soprattutto vini unici.

Wonderful Apartment

It was our first visit to Tuscany. The apartment has been professionally renovated. The hosts are very prompt to answer questions and made check-in very easy. It is a bit of an uphill hike from the parking space to the apartment. We suggest pulling up as close to the apartment as possible to unload, then, go park the car.
