In town, with country view

This is a lovely property, with a small garden, many places to sit outside, and the farmhouse is charming. It's right in town so walking for groceries or dinner was easy, and it's also on the edge of town where the fields begin, which meant great walks and views. The host gave us great recommendations for dinner and places to go for short trips nearby.

Perfection in Tuscany

We absolutely loved everything about this property and our stay in this area of Tuscany. The property was even better in person with so many beautiful details. We loved exploring San Quirico d'Orcia, restaurants were amazing and we bought few mementos to keep. We hope to come back again and will highly recommend it to all of our friends. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Beautiful quaint location

Very warm greeting at check in. Our hostess was super helpful about where things were and giving plenty of suggestions of things to do. Great location!!! Plenty to do in walking distance.

Nice location at the great Val d' Orcia

A very nice location for a stay in the central of Val d' Orcia. Everything is clean, nice and functional. Only the bathroom was a little bit small and is not made for bigger persons but for us it was no problem at all. I think, I'll come back again. 😊👍

A lovey few days at the Sarna Residence

I can’t say enough about our Hosts, Gaia -to say that she is anything less than brilliant would not do her justice! She helped us plan our stay in the area with wonderful recommendations. The residence was everything we dreamed of finding in Tuscany. Our room was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for more. The residence’s grounds were park like with an olive orchard and a wonderful area full of artichokes. I can’t leave out the wonderful collection of succulents. We truly enjoyed our stay at the Sarna Residence in San Quirico.

Dear Joseph, really thank you with all of my heart from me and my crew for this wonderful review, and for mentioned my beloved succulents collection :) I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Sarna and you experienced the best Val d'Orcia can offer thanks to my recommendations! Really hope to can see you again, maybe along the route 66...never say never :) With love, Gaia!

5 stars for Sarna Residence

My husband and I stayed 2 nights at the Sarna Residence and everything about our stay was exceptional! We stayed in the one bedroom apartment and it was adorable. Our favorite part of the Sarna Residence was the hospitality. The receptionist was beyond welcoming and went out of her way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. She even booked tours of 2 wineries last minute for us and they were fabulous! Our only qualm is that we didn’t stay longer! Thank you Sarna Residence and staff! We will see you again!

Fin beliggenhed, pæne omgivelser,

Badefaciliteter lidt mangelfulde. Et sæt håndklæder til 7 dage var nok i underkanten. bruseniche meget trang og vandet var meget længe om at blive varmt. Køkkenfaciliteter trange. Opholdsrum knap så indbydende på trods af størrelsen. Men omgivelserne med have og pool var meget fine. Så alt i alt et anbefalelsesværdigt sted .

Dear Kai, thank you so much for staying with us during your vacations! Just some clarifications about your review: in rate is included only the final cleaning, but if you would like to have daily cleaning of course we are at disposal with extra price (you didn't ask for that). In addiction, we check the apartment and the hot water come in a couple of seconds; if you said that on site we would be more than delighted to help you in fixing the problem or show you how hot water works. But we are happy you spent good time so hope to see you again very soon :)

Beautiful property in an ideal location!

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Sarna Residence. The accommodation was conveniently located for the village, San Quirico d'Orcia which has a supermarket and a couple of great restaurants, and the apartment itself was well equipped for our self catering needs. The pool area was quiet and relaxing, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Perfect spot to explore nearby Montalcino & Pienza. Would absolutely recommend a stay!

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, ruhig aber ortsnahe

Die Anlage bietet 8 Apartments in einem schönen alten Gebäude innerhalb eines großen Gartens mit netten Sitzgelegenheiten und einem Pool. Das Apartement war sehr groß und stilvoll eingerichtet. Großer Vrteil der Anlage ist außerdem die ortsnähe. Einkaufsmöglichkeit in 100 m Entfernung, der nette Ort San Quirico liegt etwa 500 m entfernt, alles zu Fuß zu erreichen. Wanderungen können ebenfalls vom Haus aus gestartet werde. Bei Fragen stehen die sehr freundlichen Vermieter immer mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Diese Unterkunft kann ich nur weiterempfehlen!
