When planning our trip to Italy we made sure that Fraces' Lodge had available openings when we were in Siena. We thoroughly enjoyed our last visit(2006) there we wanted to make sure we could stay this time around. From the moment you get out of the car,you feel you are at home. Franco and Franca greet you with a great... more

We basked in the warmth and hospitality of our hosts, Franca and Franco. They enthusiastically helped us plan a wonderful itinerary each morning as we enjoyed their hearty breakfast. We returned each afternoon to relax and savor sunset over Siena from Frances Lodge's beautiful hilltop location. Each room of the lodge is uniquely inviting, and the service is heartfelt and... more

My husband and I spent four wonderful days in Frances' Lodge recently. Prior to travelling I'd done a lot of research as we had not previously travelled to Tuscany and found the choice available confusingly wide. I found Frances Lodge via tripadvisor - it is a restful haven, convenient to Siena - a couple of kms outside the city walls... more

We stayed at Frances' Lodge for a week in September and had a fabulous time! We found Franca and Franco in Rick Steves' guide book. He had it right when he described their awesome bed and breakfast! The room and the grounds were beautiful and Franca and Franco were extremely welcoming and helpful with all of the details (transportation, sightseeing,... more

We received a wonderful welcome by Franca & Franco, our hosts, who were fantastic,friendly & so eager to help with suggestions for trips/restaurants etc. The views towards Sienna are beautiful, especially when enjoyed with a rose wine at sunset by the pool. We loved the yellow room with its mosaic bathroom & huge shower & especially savoured the outdoor breakfasts.... more

My husband and I vacationed in Northen Italy this summer. Our 4 night stay at this B&B was the highlight of our entire trip. We can't say enough good things about Frances Lodge. Our hosts Frances and Franco could not be more welcoming and helpful. Each morning they took the time to provide directions and maps for our day's activities... more

We stayed for 4 nights at the lodge which is ideally situated, just outside Siena and Florence is only 11/2 hours by car away. Franko and Francis were the perfect hosts, great breakfasts, great directions/maps and great rooms. A couple of evenings we had the picknick supper, lovely food and very romantic with views over siena. We have stayed in... more

We are very glad that we stayed with Franco and Frances on our recent trip to Tuscany. The location is ideal for day trips throughout central Tuscany. We also liked how the lodge was very close to Siena (2 minutes drive to the parking lot outside of the city gates) yet still felt like we were in the Tuscan countryside.... more

Wonderful rooms, breakfast, and tour tips. Full of help and advice of how to spend our time in Tuscany. Would strongly recomend having a car to take full advantage of all the sights they can recomend. more
