Il Vicario

A lovely place in the Tuscan hills away from the crowds of San Gimignano It has lots of character, beautiful outdoor seating, and welcoming hosts. We didn't sign up for the cooking class but those who did loved it and said it was the best meal they had in Tuscany!

The staff were very friendly and the owner cooked and spent lots of time with the guests. A very homelike setting

Bijzonder vriendelijke, hulpzame mensen. Lekker ontbijt. Mooie kamers. Helaas groeit er overal onkruid tussen de stenen, zowel op het ontbijtterras en aan het zwembad. Een verfrissingsblokje in het toilet op de kamer zou aan te raden zijn.

Vi var 4 på rejse og havde lejet to “værelser” som viste sig at være to store lejligheder. Bedste beliggenhed, dejlige og rene lejligheder og fin kontakt med “receptionisten” som var der efter aftale ifm ind- og udtjekning

If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience...LOOK NO FURTHER!! Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, this b&b truly has everything we could have dreamt for. The owners were outstanding and treated us like we were family. The b&b itself felt so authentic and cozy and it was nice to get out of the busy cities for a few days. The food was impeccable (best we’ve had while on our two week trip), the views were breathtaking, and the cooking class they offer was such a wonderful experience. I can’t say enough great things about this spot. We definitely left a piece of our hearts there!

We were welcomed warmly and immediately felt relaxed. Fulvio and Katia were excellent hosts. It is in a good location for touring and has far reaching, spectacular views of the beautiful countryside from the windows of our spacious and clean, rustic accommodation. There was no air conditioning which we already knew but a fan was placed in the bedroom. They gave us helpful information about how to navigate the roads and places to visit. I also completed a cooking course which I found very enjoyable and informative. The pool area was a little untidy. I would also recommend plenty of bug spray. I always get bitten by water. I would not hesitate to recommend this venue to friends and family and May well go back there again one day.

Fulvio is an excellent host, his hotel is in a beautiful location, very close to San Gimignano. Centrally located between many amazing sights, Fulvio was a charming host who provided outstanding food and wine. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. Will definitely return again soon.

Made very welcome by the owner and his niece, Fulvio and Katia, very helpful, and met all our needs. Food excellent, cooking class highly recommended. Their knowledge of the Tuscan ares is exceptional and their are very willing to share this. We loved are stay with them and are already planning our next stay at II Vicario.

Wonderful place, beautiful setting !! great food too. Katia and Fulvia were wonderful hosts and their cooking class is delicious!!

Il Vicario is a beautiful 17th century villa surrounded by vineyards and a lovely pool. The room was nice and even though it had antiques as furniture, it felt very updated. We woke up to the sound of roosters cockle-doodle-doing. Instead of bothering me, it made me laugh and realize how far out in the country we were. It was very peaceful. The owner Martin was so helpful and offered to help us get a taxi, directions to our next town, printed maps for us, provided a wonderful breakfast and then agreed to mail us some clothing we accidentally left in our room. So service was top notch!! Would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.
