Agriturismo Poggio Il Castellare

The directions to the property were very clear and easy to follow, which was particularly helpful given the long, winding road leading from the main route. We greatly appreciated the owner's kindness in allowing us to use their private pool on a very hot day. This was a thoughtful gesture and enhanced our stay. Given the property's remote location, making the pool available to all guests as a standard amenity would add significant value. Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome from the receptionist. As we were among the first guests to arrive, we were even given the opportunity to choose our room, which was a very nice touch

The pool is not generally available to guests. Considering both the heat of the region and the property's secluded setting, access to the pool, along with sunbeds and pool towels, would greatly improve the guest experience. Unfortunately, we found the mattress and pillows quite uncomfortable and both woke up with back pain. The outdoor areas could benefit from better maintenance. Since the property is quite remote, guests naturally spend much of their time on the terrace or enjoying the surroundings. However, we found tables with bird droppings and old drink stains that appeared not to have been cleaned recently. Daily cleaning would make a significant difference and create a more welcoming atmosphere. The terrace chairs were also uncomfortable and lacked cushions. Similarly, the gazebo area near the parking lot felt neglected, with dirty furniture arranged haphazardly rather than as an inviting space for guests. Our dinner experience was very disappointing. Guests are required to choose their meal by 4:00 pm, and we were informed that dinner service would begin at 7:30 pm. However, by 8:30 pm we had still not received our starter. While waiting, we were served dry bread without condiments, which felt like a missed opportunity given the local produce the region is known for. We also ordered a bottle of red wine, which was served noticeably too warm. When we raised the issue, we were offered ice to cool it down, which was surprising for a wine-producing property and suggested a lack of wine service knowledge. Service overall appeared understaffed, with a single waiter attending to around ten guests. Additional staff training and investment in restaurant service would significantly improve the dining experience. The food itself was acceptable, but not particularly memorable for the price charged. In hindsight, we would recommend driving to one of the nearby restaurants instead

Lovely peaceful rural location

Evening dinner average

De kamer voldeed aan alle wensen met een mooie badkamer met bad.Zeer aardig personeel . Het ontbijt was zeer uitgebreid en lekker. Ook het diner was zeer goed.

De lange weg er naartoe was erg hobbelig maar we vonden dat niet storend.Doordat we langzaam moesten rijden,konden we van de prachtige omgeving genieten.

It was in a gorgeous setting and the host was lovely. The dinner and wine tasting were fantastic!

The bathroom in our bedroom was a tub that had a glass panel that bent in and out. There was no showerhead, so when my 6’5” husband showered, the water went everywhere. We would still come back and stay at the property; this was a tiny inconvenience.
