We enjoyed a full week with friends at Il Sogno during September of 2010. Our apartment was lovely and spacious with stunning views of the villa and the Tuscan hills from every window. We cooked in the well-appointed kitchen, dined and read outside on our private patio, and swam in the pool that overlooks the grapevines. Several mornings, we joined the bed & breakfast guests for the morning meal, and one day sat on an outside terrace for an amazing wine-tasting lunch. We walked every day on the quiet back road to nearby San Gimignano, where there is much history, many shops and incredible food.
The young owners of Il Sogno were gracious and welcoming. We had many conversations with them as we learned about the restoration of the property, the extensive remodeling of the buildings, and the grape and olive harvest. They truly shared their dream with us.
We’ll definitely return and have recommended this lovely place to many people. It was even better than we hoped! Jeff & Patsy - Minneapolis, MN

What a delightful place to stay and experience the Tuscan countryside. The view from our terrace was heavenly. Elena was a perfect host and without being too intrusive, helped us with inquiries throughout our stay. The accommodation was clean, well equiped for our needs and wants. I would return without hesitation.
The only confusion was the initial directions given by the agency. The property is listed as Borgo de castagno, however the name on the wall of the entry driveway, is Borgo Elena. Also, the first place we booked through easy reserve had the wrong pictures and when we were informed of their error, we had to wait a long time for a reply to change, which eventualy came through another country agency. None of this was the fault of the actual property, but the agency.

Lovely place to stay -7-8 kms out of Cortona. Good base to explore Tuscany and Umbria if driving. Lovely hospitable family who will provide you with food tomatoes from garden and suggestions as to what to do in area. Very well equipped house, family lives on top. There is a pizzeria across the road for eating out.

We recently stayed at Palazzo Rosadi (4 adults, 5 children) and found the property to be exactly as suggested by previous reviewers. It is a beautiful property, the grounds and views are stunning, and the Palazzo itself offers very good accommodation. The photographs on the internet give a sense of it but it is even better in reality. The bedrooms and bathrooms are excellent, and the kitchen has been recently updated. The welcome from Signor Rosadi was as described by others - extremely warm and helpful. We took up many of the local dining suggestions provided by Signor Rosadi - La Pieve Vecchia in Monterchi in particular was fantastic - and he was always happy to provide suggestions when venturing further afield, and help on other matters such as the logistics of purchasing a local SIM card. The children loved playing in the forest and by the pool (rescuing frogs from the swimming pool was a particular favourite). As it was late September it was a little too cold to enjoy the pool to the fullest, but we are already contemplating a return visit earlier in summer one year just to enjoy it. The villa was a little further from town than we expected - it is only a 5 minute drive but too far to walk - but Monterchi itself is a very pleasant little town. We arrived in time for the annual polenta festival which was a highlight. Monterchi is in the very far east of Tuscany, on the border of Umbria, so it took a little bit of time to get to some places in Tuscany (1.5hr drive to Siena, 30min drive to Arezzo and then 45min train to Florence, 1.5hrs to Montepulciano), but there is plenty to see and do in the immediate vicinity. Anghiari is a beautiful town 20mins away, and Sansepulcro (25mins) was a very handy spot for bigger supermarket shops and other services (gym, computer / electrical store). Gubbio in Umbria (1hr) was a favourite. Signor Marcello's supermarket in Monterchi was a delight - as suggested by Signor Rosadi we mentioned to Signor Marcello that we were staying at the Palazzo and were greeted with a very warm greeting and a complimentary glass of Signor Marcello's home produced wine at his little bar inside the supermarket. This villa really is worth visiting, it is spectacular and the owners are delightful - it will not disappoint. Dan F., Melbourne, Australia

Staying at Villa San Filippo was an excellent experience. We were there for two weeks in September 2010. It is located just outside the beautiful town of Montalcino which is famous for it's Brunello wine and has lots of great little restaurants and shops. The Le Coste apartment was spacious and very tastefully furnished (not always the case at Italian agro tourismos). The property is a tiny old village that the owner has transformed into 3 holiday apartments and a winery that produces some highly rated wines. Roberto, the owner was kind enough to give us a tour and private tasting as we are very passionate about wine. The entire property is surrounded by vineyards. There is a large pool with comfortable chairs that's beautifully lit at night. We would stay there again in a heartbeat! We loved it.

We enjoyed our stay at Il Palazzetto. The owner was gracious and helpful. The house was spotless and well equipped. The grounds were green and featured herbs and ripening figs. The only challenge was the approach road, it took real driving skill and the lowest gear to get up. We did loose a tire to a close encounter on the road.

There were five adults in our party and we had a wonderful time during our stay. Whether it was traveling to the various sites or just lounging around the time spent was very relaxing and to be able to return to a comfortable and quiet place was ideal.

The villa at Podere Arianna was everything the website cited and more. It was very clean and roomy with all the amenities. The area surrounding it was beautiful and would definately recommend this villa to others.
