This was our second stay in as many years. It was with much sadness when we had to leave the morning after our 5 night stay. Ornella and Stephano are such warm and gracious hosts and there was nothing that they do not think of to make our stay as relaxing and as comfortable in every way. The bed and... More

One year ago today, I was woken up by the bells at Sant'Anna in Camprena, the most wonderful place in Tuscany. My husband and I spent our birthdays here, having discovered the monastery in our favorite movie, The English Patient. Every aspect of our stay far exceeded any of our expectations: the bells, the daily breakfast set up, adorable room,... More

We got married in Sant'Anna, and every single one of our guests wants to come back. No wonder : breathtaking landscapes, insipiring simplicity, a concentrate of Tuscany's beauty, and on top of that the warmness of Ornella and Stefano's team... What can we say about Sant'Anna that would not be too much "over the top" ? Believe us, my husband... More

We stayed 3 nights at the monastery this month and loved every minute of it. Ornella is a wonderful host and her staff are very friendly. If you have the opportunity to have dinner there, do it! The best gnocchi we've ever had were made by Ornella's mother. Our room, #34, was simple and clean. We weren't aware there wasn't... More

My husband and I stayed at Sant'Anna last month. Oh my... words just can't describe this beautiful place. To stay in such an old monastery was marvellous. We had a comfortable room outside the main building, which was beautifully private - felt like a villa with the view over we had. Breakfast was great. Sitting in the immaculate garden drinking...

We stayed 2 nights at the monestary, and it was fantastic from start to finish. Ornella gave us such a wonderfully enthusiastic, helpful, and warm welcome, from the start and all during our stay. We were there off-season so we benefited by feeling that we were almost alone most of the times, enjoying the beautiful garden, the stunning view, wine... More

It was our best experience in Tuscany. A lovely place, marvellous sigthseeing, warm reception, all you can expect of a cosy place in the middle of the Tuscan fields. Ornella was a wonderful host and made as feel at home, given us excellent advice about where to go in the neighborhood. A must go place - fabulous.

At the end of July, by the way a very good season to see the Val d’Orcia, we spent 4 nights at this delightful Agriturismo. Ornella and Stefano are very good hosts. The breakfast with homemade jams , joghurts and very nice croissants is a good start for the day. The dinners are absolutely amazing. We got fanstastic suggestions where... More

We drove from Marbella to Italy - 2 days on a Grimaldi ferry (Barcelona- Civitavecchia) and everyone needs solace! And what solace. I feel privileged to have had such an experience. We painted there - for 7 days - in the extraordinary gardens and in a huge studio/barn with beautiful beams and stunning ambience. The rooms are contemplative and I... More
