A private luxury retreat in Montalcino

Il Poggiarello is a home away from home. Il Poggiarello is a gem countryhouse in one of the most beautiful and exclusive locations in Tuscany. It is perfect for a family, for one or two couples or a small group of friends exploring Tuscany and the beauties of the Montalcino area. The property has been renovated and redecorated in January 2024.

Il Poggiarello is located on the top of a hill with amazing views from every corner, a beautiful and large veranda overlooking the pool.

Il Poggiarello is made of 2 large double bedrooms and a spacious living room which can be easily turned into a comfortable bedroom.

The house is decorared with the highest standards and attention to detail and benefits from alla modern accessories.

Moreover in the house you will find contemporary art works since I collect contemporary art and share one of my interests with my guests.

Montalcino is a lovely village where there are many things to do or you can do nothing and enjoy the beauty of Il Poggiarello, its views, its silence and magic.

Although close by, Il Poggiarello is completely separated from the main house, with a garden of its own and a secluded terrace for outdoor meals and sunbathing offering the most wonderful view over the vineyards, the valley and the mount Amiata in the distance. Paths starting out from the house lead to wonderful walks both into the vineyards and the woods.

Whether you stay by the pool, you admire the view from our rooms or you go wondering in the vineyards you will be enchanted by this magical place. Montalcino is ideally situated to visit Tuscany: Pienza, Montepulciano, San Quirico d’Orcia, San Giminiano, Saturnia and its thermal hot springs, Cortona are all less than one our drive. Montalcino is also known internationally for its famous Brunello di Montalcino and we will be happy to assist you in organizing some customised visit to your preferred producer.

The pool measures 12 meters x 5 meters and has a beach area with shallow water perfect for children or simply for those who want both the sun and the water!

The house has been also further improved with a new kitchen and dining area, and a new terrace and BBQ area outdoor.

Il Poggiarello is surrounded by a well looked after garden and offers an accommodations which combines a very high standard furniture and all modern comforts while maintaining the magical beauty of Tuscany. All bed and bath linen are also supplied, satellite TV, unlimited WiFi access. spacious bathroom/shower room, independent heating and air conditioned.

We enjoyed our stay at the villa, unfortunately on arrival the villa had not been cleaned since previous occupancy. Camilla was very good and arranged for cleaning the next day.

Wonderful Gem in Montalcino
We had a wonderful week at Podere Poggiarello. Camilla was a loverly and very helpful host. The location of the villa was great, 20 min drive from the lovely town of Montalcino. The villa amenities were good, we expecially loved the terrace and the pool. What an amazing view! Thanks again for a fabulous experience.

Great rustic farmhouse with amazing pool and views
This is an amazing property in the middle of Barolo wine country. About 15 minutes away from Montalcino along winding country roads, you are really away from it all. Set on the top of a hill, it has unparalleled views in 3 directions with amazing sunsets to enjoy from the deck while enjoying dinner. The pool is outstanding and a great refresh while under a hot Tuscan sun. I would consider the house itself rustic chic, styled in a farmhouse vibe, but was well apportioned and perhaps most importantly had fairly well functioning air conditioning. Working with Camilla was great and she was really helpful in addressing a couple of very minor issues. Overall it's a great place to get away from the crowds of the Italian summer. Plus, Montalcino is a charming town that has some great restaurants and was very chill during the week (we left on a Saturday and it seemed to be picking up a little). One minor note, as you're pretty far in the country, there were perhaps more bugs than our teenage daughters (city kids) would have preferred, but it wasn't too bad.

Romantic Country House with Beautiful Views
We had a lovely time at this secluded home at the top of a hill. Very scenic and peaceful. It was extremely restful staying at the house and we did a day trip to Sienna, about an hour drive. The nearby small town of Montalcino had some nice shops and restaurants and an interesting archeological museum, but did involve a 15-min drive on some very mountainous roads with many sharp turns. We did venture into town several times, including grocery store runs. Be sure to check the hours, as the grocery store is only open some afternoons.

True Tuscany
Very beautiful and quiet location. The surrounding landscape and views are stunning. Our group of four adults had plenty of room in house and outside patio. The pool with surrounding olive groove was so relaxing. Short drive to many Vineyards and Montalcino. Would very much recommend this anyone looking for a relaxing Tuscan visit.

Wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay and could not recommend this house enough. The location was perfect - close to Montalcino but still secluded - and the house was so charming and comfortable. Thanks for an amazing time!

We loved Il Poggiarello
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s a very reasonable drive to Montalcino - about 20 minutes - with similar drives to great wineries large and small. We definitely took advantage of the food and wine the area offers, both at restaurants and with some fabulous local steaks grilled on the poolside BBQ. Whether you plan on spending the day lounging by the pool and enjoying the beautiful scenery or exploring the area, Il Poggiarello is a wonderful place to stay.
