“Beautiful property and people”
This is an oase in the middle of nowhere, still close to a lot of nice villages and beautiful beaches. The property is very well maintained and it feels like living in another world of beauty. The breakfast is excellent and the restaurant serves perfect food and their own produced wine. Beautiful rooms. The gardens and pool is fantastic , and you will never want to leave. The service is also of excellent quality.

“Unforgetable stay in a tenuta with a strong personality”
A oasis of relaxation in which one can enjoy the 17th century traditional architecture, the modern facilities, the large swimming pool, the wide and well maintained garden. On top of these come the excellent services and warm hospitality. Serena and her colleague were very welcoming and helpful. Thank you Jessica for your constant kindness and smile in the restaurant.

“Interesting property with main building recently refurbished but alternative building in need of some refurbishment.”
Great pool and pool bar. Attractive interesting buildings, excellent food at dinner, helpful and very friendly staff. Remote location seemed a disadvantage at first but soon became a big plus in this wonderful peaceful rural location but you really do need a car.

“Not enjoyable”
The receptionist was offhand The bed had a very large black beetle lying between the sheets, seemingly placed there which led to a completely sleepless night When it was brought to the attention of the receptionist she suddenly didn’t understand The food in the restaurant was very poor but the serving staff were very pleasant I would not recommend this hotel to anyone
