“So lovely!”

We stayed there in may '11 and it was wonderful. It's simple, but the place is beautiful, quiet, friendly. Easy to relax. You get a very good feel of tuscany and everything is quite nearby, like Siena, Florence, Montepulciano, hot thermes and so much more. We also went to the famous tarot garden of Niki de St. Phalle from there, even the sea isn't far. Barbara (the owner) is super friendly and helps with everything you need. Scooby the dog is just fantastic. Breakfast was nice, too, and for the other meals you can visit one of the many nice restaurants nearby (one is just 100 m away) or prepare your own meal in the kitchen. We just LOVED it. Thanx Barbara!

“Delightful Stay at Il Colombaio”

Our visit to Tuscany began at Il Colombaio. Admittely, finding the agriturismo was a challenge, but as we drove up the cedar lined drive and the narrow drive we knew we would love the tranquility and privacy along with the central location.

Il Colombaio is rustic. What it lacks in modern refinements it has in character and beauty. The breakfast is wonderful and the owner has an abundance of recommendations of places to eat nearby.

Highly recommended.

“If you want to feel like you live in Tuscany, this is the place to go!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 June 2010

Loved it. The beautiful space inside and outside. The whole feel of the place is pleasant and calm. The resident dogs and cats add a familiar feeling to the whole experience [oops, almost forgot the fish :) ]
I was just what we expected from what we had seen of it on their website.

“Perfect spot to relax and visit best ofTuscany without having to change location”

Flew to Pisa with my daughter, drove to Il Colombaio (2hrs) where we had initially booked the first 2 nights. Once there found out no need to move location as Montepulciano, Montagnino and all other places we wanted to see were no more than 1 hr drive from there and luckily they managed to accommodate us for the other 2 nights. Loved staying there, felt like living in a nice Tuscany house with beautiful surroundings. Carwyn and Barbara were great making us feel at home and giving us best advises on places to go, what to see and where to eat. Siena is just 10 mins drive and only 20 mins drive to the other side is the beautiful Petrolo Spa. We paid just over 300 euros for both of us for 4 nights stay including breakfast! Loved Scooby, the beautiful Newfoundland dog that guards the house. Highly reccommend to people like us that were looking forward to relax, get away from TV and computers and enjoy the best of Tuscany avoiding the crowded city hotels.
