My husband and I enjoyed a short stay at Podere La Strega in late August and loved it! Not only were Letizia and Luca were very welcoming and helpful, but the views were amazing and the accommodations excellent. We drove to Siena and had little trouble finding Podere La Strega. It is a bit far out of the main area... More

Great place to stay to see Tuscany. We stayed 5 nights in late October and did day trips to towns around Siena. Letizia was very helpful with directions into Siena and restaurants nearby. The best capuccino I had in Italy!! Breakfast was very good. We even had one of her dinners with several other guests. The dinner was very, very... More

Tucked away in the hills of Siena, this one year old B&B really is a fantastic find. It is rustic Tuscan down to the bone, if this is what you are after you certainly won't be disappointed! Equipped with a large pool over-looking the beautiful city of Siena, after a long, hot day walking within the old city walls this... More

We stayed at Podere La Strega for one night in October of 2011, and overall our experience was very good. In our 12 day tour of Tuscany, we were mainly staying in hotels in city/town centers, so wanted to try something different in Siena. The B&B itself was lovely, and very much what we expected. The property is large and... More

This lovely looking home is located in the end of a narrow road in what seems to be the middle of nowhere. Our GPS didn't even recognize the area. It was very difficult to find the place at first, and there aren't any prominent signs. You just have to reach the end of the road and it's the last house... More

After a six hour drive from the Amalfi coast, arrived to a note on the gate with a telephone number to call. That number wouldn't connect so we called Booking.Com to get them to check it out. They - initially - couldn't help but eventually two hours later the owner was located. We were shown an upstairs room that had... More

My wife and I had a great experience. The accommodation is well maintained, and clean. We stayed in the Rosa room, which overlooks the swimming pool, with a great view of the Siena city centre. Originally a house more than 500 years, owned by the family, was renovated to provide the accomodation service. The host, Letizia, was very friendly and... More

The B&B is just outside Siena. We arrived by bus to Siena and departed by train and used taxis to get around. Taxi in to town was around 10 euros. Most people staying here had had rental cars, but taxis were fine for us. The nice things about this B&B was the pretty rooms, the wonderful place were we had... More

This is the best place I have ever stayed ! Podere la Strega farmhouse/villa is just beautiful, the scenery amazing, as well as location (you need a car though!) The breakfast/dinner setting outside was just fantastic ! We were also very lucky to have such a nice guests at the same time with us (couples from Australia, England, Belgium, America),... More

The property was just outside of Siena in the countryside and the perfect base from which to explore all of Tuscany and to take a day trip to Florence. It was quiet and relaxing with attention to detail and design at a good price point; we would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends. More
