This was the perfect spot for our Tuscany 4 day visit. Put us right in the middle of where we wanted to visit.The house is exactly what we wanted for a visit. It’s not a 5 star luxury resort. It is house that we envisioned while visiting Tuscany. Very clean, Fabrizio is great (and he has Google translate down ;-) ).

Inoltre, la loro simpatia, cordialità e positività hanno reso l’esperienza davvero speciale. La comunicazione è stata sempre fluida e piacevole, senza alcun problema. Li consiglio vivamente a qualsiasi host e spero davvero di poterli ospitare di nuovo in futuro: saranno sempre i più che benvenuti!

This property truly was a dream! Nestled in the Tuscan hillside it provided a gorgeous and peaceful escape, while still being a 5 to 10 minute drive from any amenities we need. It was perfectly situated to explore the entirety of the Val d'Orcia by car!La famiglia Andreoni were so welcoming and so helpful, they truly made us feel like one of them! The hosts live on the property but, as other reviews say, they are in a completely separate part of the property and so we truly felt like we had the place to ourselves. Fabricio greeted us with such joy and we had absolutely no problem communicating with him via translation apps. He gave us an incredible number of recommendations for sights to see and things to do and food to eat while we were there. He also gave us a tour of his garden after he found out that we are also gardeners, and it was such a wonderful and warm welcome. The place itself was so comfortable and homey that we were sad we only booked five nights! We loved watching the sunset from the upper balcony and greeting the morning with the rooster and chickens on the property. The three cats that frequented the property also added charm and kept us company as we all sunned ourselves on the back patio! What a magical place, and we absolutely know that we will be returning to stay for longer. Looking forward to it!

Our stay at Il Poggio dell'Eremita was nothing short of magical! Its a beautifully appointed home, very clean and comfortable! The location is breathtaking, surrounded by mountains, olive groves and ancient walled cities. Our hosts were gracious and kind, available to answer questions, but also allowed privacy. Fabrizio went above and beyond to help us with a car issue, essentially making it a non-problem. Tranquil, peaceful, beautiful and convenient to many places of interest, I could not give a higher endorsement. We hope for the opportunity to return again to this amazing place!

Amazing Villa in the Heart of Tuscany

The host was very welcoming upon arrival and gave us a great tour of the property along with some area history. Such a peaceful setting. Really enjoyed the patio upstairs off the bedroom. Great views of the terrain by day and fantastic views of the stars at night. Very close to the enchanting villages on hilltops nearby (Rigamagno and Scrofiano).

The perfect getaway

We had a lovely stay in this home. Fabrizio is incredibly welcoming and kind. The views were amazing, and there were multiple outdoor seating areas to enjoy the scenery. If you're looking for a more remote stay, this is for you. A 20-40 minute drive will get you to nearby towns, sights, and restaurants, so having a method of transportation allows you to fully enjoy the area.

The most amazing garden getaway

Stayed here for five days recuperating from busy days in Rome. The garden was absolutely spectacular so quiet and quaint beautiful Italian love spending time in the comfortable chairs making home cooked dinner having wine visiting with Orchard cats as they cruise through the property. The host was unbelievably kind and generous loved the option of being able to purchase wine on the property without having to go into town. Speaking of town is about a 10 minute drive away Several cute places to eat and grocery stores. A fantastic little place in the middle of the country side centrally locatedcould not recommend this more. Cannot wait to come back again!!!

Perfect spot close to so many towns (Pienza, Montepulciano, Siena)

We absolutely loved our stay! Fabrizio was a wonderful host, he met us outside and showed us where to park. Gave us a brief history of the house and quick tour. He recommended an amazing local restaurant and quaint little town to visit, Lucignano, that you can see up on the hill from the house. Hardest part about the stay is deciding which towns to visit!

lovely villa

Fabrizio's place is just gorgeous. When we arrived, he gave us a detailed tour of the gardens and house, both of which are beautiful and have all conveniences. We enjoyed walking to the small and lovely town of Farnatella, and driving a few minutes to the gorgeous Lucignano. While he and his wife do live in the downstairs of the house, they have a separate entrance and were respectful of our privacy while we were there. I hope to return for a longer stay!
