La Grotta di Montecchino

The location is absolutely amazing, quiet, beautiful, and a great slice of Tuscany. The property itself is also lovely, an old Tuscan farm house fixed up with modern amenities. Really great.

My only major complaint is that the curtains were not thick enough to block the sun, which is a problem with the long hours of daylight. There are some other minor problems, but nothing to take away from the good.

When I booked I liked the nature around the house and that remained the only thing good there.

Host was horrible, I was texting about the check in instructions, announced my arrival time and when I came no one was there and we were in the middle of nowhere. Morning after she yelled at us and tried to keep our passports so we can't leave the property, horrible experience. It said that breakfast was included, there was no breakfast, also pool wasn't functioning. The house is okay but for this money you can rent something where people will be there so you can check in and where they won't try to keep your personal document, few hours before your flight back...

The surroundings entering the property were like taken from a movie...breathtaking! Alexandra was very friendly and helpful with tips and local information. The apartment was spacious, a bit old-fashioned, but we loved every minute we spent there. There is plenty of space outside to explore. We stayed at the end of Oct so the weather was changing already. As the property is on the high hill, you can see the picturesque panorama of the region. Everything is close by: Pienza, Val'd'orcia, natural pools.

The property is situated in the outskirts of Siena. This means you have beautiful scenery and a feeling of being in nature. You can wake up early in the morning and have a chance of seeing various animals; squirrels, deer, birds... The room/bed was comfortable and spacious.

The bathroom was a bit smelly which could sometimes be annoying in the room.

Struttura bellissima, con un paesaggio magnifico. Personale gentile e disponibile, stanze accoglienti e puliti. Molto vicina alla splendida città di Siena raggiungibile in meno di 10 minuti in auto, con disponibilità di comodi parcheggi a pagamento. La consiglio senz'altro

The location of Agroturismo is perfect for one-day trips around Tuscany. Within 1-2 hours you can get to Florence, Siena-Monteriggiano-San Gimignano- Volterra or Pienza-Montepulcciano. The place is very convenient, has a swimming pool and a really well kept garden. The closest little town is around 3 km from Agroturismo and it offers some small restaurants, supermarket, pharmacy, etc. The Owner was very friendly and helpful. There was an option to buy the breakfast.
