This was our second stay at Il Poggiarello, and it certainly will not be our last. We cannot wait to return. We had an amazing time relaxing by the pool, grilling steaks under the stars in the evening, going on runs in the early mornings. However, the extra special aspect of this place is the tranquility. I know lots of other places will say that - but there wasn't a plane in the sky and the only traffic we could hear was a passing tractor for the grape harvest. We could sit and admire the views across the olive groves and vineyards whilst sipping a cool beverage, reading, chatting, swimming, cooking and relaxing.After the first day my wife asked if I felt relaxed - I used the word "Healed" - it's amazing. Everyone should experience this place at least once!The proximity to Montalcino allows you to pop into town for wine (Bruno Dalmazio), steaks (A&G Macelleria) and the COOP has everything else. There's plenty to see and do if you want to leave the villa, we did a wine tasting at Altesino (one of our favourites) - in the past we've visited the churches and museums - but this time we spent the time relaxing.This really is a slice of heaven on earth - we shall be back again (and soon)Camilla is a super-attentive host, we didn't have any issues - but she was always available.
