Great tranquil place to stay only 15 minutes by car to Siena. Sara is a warm and welcoming host.There are so many adorable towns around: Asiano, Chiusure (lunch at Locando Paradiso is lovely) and Buonvonvento. The Abbey of Monte Olivieto Maggiore is worth a detour. One hour away is the beautiful Chianti region. Highly recommmend the towns of Castellina in Chianti, Panzano and Greve in Chianti and its surrounding majestic view. ##### Lucia M.

We spent a wonderful month in this charming home away from home exploring many of the quaint hill towns, sampling wines, visiting delicious out of the way dining gems & feeling as though we’d been taken in as part of the dear couple who own this b&b. The location is central for exploring north to Siena, Chianti & as far as Florence or South to Val d’Orcia with it’s many interesting towns & hikes. Loved it all. Best to have a car or enjoy biking a lot. ##### Carol T.

Anything we needed she was extremely responsive to, and her kindness made our visit much more fun. Google maps doesn’t correctly localize Sara’s property, so to get there we recommend navigating to Siena club Valdarbia, which is one block away, and on google maps. Very good location for driving into Siena. Appealing property with lots of pretty plants. Not a villa but a lovely oasis within a suburban area. Both beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was functional and fairly well equipped. Cozy pretty internal space. Important to know that the second bedroom opens up onto a busy road…opening the window brings in car exhaust . The other bedroom is very comfortable and opens onto the lovely property. There was not a breakfast, but Sarah did bring us milk and homemade jam. She also spent a lot of time teaching us Italian , teaching my husband how to make homemade Italian coffee, and answering questions about the area and helping us with directions. She has three lovely dogs were a pleasure to return to. ##### Miriam O.
