Wonderful surroundings, very hospitable staff, great service, etc.

The staff is really wonderful. They make you feel at home, are extremely helpfull, friendly and knowledgeable about the surroundings. They where happy to help us plan some of our trips in the surrounding area. The location is quit and remote (with only a winebar across the street, see friendly advice) but within minutes you are in San Donato or on the chianti route. The place itself has a lot of facilities, wonderful swimmingpool with amazing view. The room was clean, well equiped and quit large (and we had the smallest one).

Nothing...well, maybe they are too modest about there great place :-)

un bon séjour.

Très beau cadre. Les enfants et les grands ont beaucoup appréciés la table de ping-pong et le baby-foot, tout comme la piscine.

Une salle de bain peu pratique et une cuisine très petite pour manger à 4. Attention aussi à l\'escalier très raide.

8.3

Très bonne adresse

Très bonne situation géographique pour découvrir les incontournables de la Toscane ( Firenze, Siena, San Giminiano...) ainsi que la région du Chianti Classico. L\'accueil des proprio est sympa sans être pesant. Très belle vue surplombant la campagne environnante depuis la piscine.

Nous avons regretté de ne pas avoir eu un appart de plain-pied et le bruit de quelques enfants surexcités dans la piscine...

Nous avons été très bien accueillis par les propriétaires.L\'ambiance était très sympathique, le jardin, les terrasses, la piscine étaient très bien entretenus, les propriétaires discrets et serviables nous ont bien conseillés.

accueil, situation centrale et proches des routes principales pour circuler dans le chianti et vers Florence ou Sienne ou le val d\'elsa.

Really Disappointed

Nice spot and near a lovely restaurant. Saw 3 wild boar!! Pool area and games room were nice for families with small children.

Uncomfortable, impersonal living space - Ok for a family with small children but virtually no space for a family of four virtual adults to relax - We had no choice but to go out!! Glad we only stayed one night. Wouldn\'t recommend it. Sunbeds around the pool were plastic and uncomfortable. It didn\'t have a friendly community vibe.Everyone kept themselves to themselves - ODD!

Dear Guest,
we are mortified, that you didn’t enjoy your stay at Borgo Sicelle, booking one night in our accommodations is not was enough to appreciate it and not enough to establish a friendly relationship with the other guests and the owners.
“Borgo Sicelle is a good place where to relax”, has confirmed, not only, by the last three reviews ( 1- Quiet; woke up to roosters off in the distance. Owners had the perfect balance of giving privacy and being available for any questions and helpful suggestions. 2- Excellent accommodation with very helpful and friendly owners. 3- beautiful surroundings, relaxed atmosphere, a great place to spend some our honeymoon ), but also for the other 150 customers, who always sent positive reviews . Usually, we have customers who have been with us an average stay of 3/5 nights (obviously with them is more simple to establish a friendly relationship) among which there are some, from all over the world, who come back to us every year .. this is our “best review”.
The three room apartment you stayed in is of 70 sqm and is suitable for 4 persons, it has a kitchen with satellite TV, 2 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. There is also a private space outside with a table, chairs and a sun umbrella . With these characteristics the apartment should be suitable then for both families with small children and groups of only adults, we do also have to mention that the apartment is recognized and classified for people in wheelchairs.
The apartments have a simple decor; the game room has both games for small children and tennis table and a football table for teens and adults; sunbeds are in plastic but we provide one or more mats for each one of them. We are sorry if we didn’t offer you what you expected from us.
Maybe we have a different concept of "Tuscany" as we think that the simple things are what makes the "real Tuscan style" as well as the beauty of nature and friendship and cordiality between people.
Sorry again ;-)
Franco and Silvia

Great Location, Great Accommodation, Fabulous People

Located only 30 minutes from Siena and 40 from Florence via the \"free\" motorway with local supermarkets and villages (San Gimignano, Poggibonsi)within a few minutes - Great! Above average accommodation overlooking the valley and vineyards with a wonderful pool and facilities - Great! Two wonderful hosts in Franco and Sylvia who are full of local advice and assistance whenever required. The group pizza night was very special and unfortunately our last night there - Fabulous!!

A slight negative is that the drive from the \"free\" motorway is only about 7 minutes long but it seems to take longer due to the narrow winding road. Be prepared for it, persevere it is well worth it!!

Wonderful stay with family

The stay was nothing but prefect. The owners really helped us visiting the surroundings and were always accessible and friendly. The surroundings were incredible, the view, the food, the wine

The nearby restaurant was too often full. I recommend reservation although it is not always easy when you are on vacation. Would appreciate using the washing machine past 6PM

Wonderful Toscana Experience!!!

We were completely satisfied with our stay here. The owner was very friendly and helpful, the accommodation clean and relaxing. It\'s quite near to Florence, so if anyone has a car, we would definetaly recommend staying here and visit Florence or other locations. Kitchen is provided, so we cooked during our stay. It was lovely to go to the early market to get fresh vegetables and fruits that are grown locally. If you would like a real Toscana experience, we definitely recommend this place!!!

Nothing really. If we were to say something, the toilet was a little small.

OUTSTANDING VALUE. Beautiful setting in Tuscan countryside . Great location in wine country: 35 minute drive to Sienna, 45 minute drive to center of Florence. Various charming hilltowns within 10-`15 minutes. Food co-ops 10 minute drive. One of the best restaurant we found in Italy (we were there 4 1/2 months) is a 5 minute drive down the road: Osteria Alla Piazza. They also sell the best olive oil behind the Osteria for 10 Euros per large bottle!

View from the pool as beautiful as any in Tuscanny. The owners, Franco and Silvia, are so gracious and helpful in every possible regard. They go beyond the beyond to make your stay the greatest possible pleasure. Washing machine, drying racks, iron, etc a must for us. Convient secured free parking. Lovely guests stay there, most from Europe. Many are regulars, as we intend to be!

We extended our stay to 20 days in June when we saw the beauty.The weather was glorious until the last 4 days, when the heat wave struck Italy. There is no air conditioning, so even with paddle fans and/or floor fans, it was a bit hot for us. The free WiFi was on a back patio, not in each apartment, but not a problem.

Our 4th Romantic Vacation to Italy.....\"The Best Yet\".

The \"Highlight\" of our trip in Italy was our stay at this property.Our highest praises to the most gracious hosts...\"Sylvia and Franco\". Both were extremly accomodating and the facility and the fantastic scenery were all above our greatest expectations. We thorougly enjoyed our first experience at staying at a Agriguriturismo Facility...5 Star for the both of us.

Absolutely none....we had prepared our trip with detailed maps of the area and the instructions from Franco made the journey from Rome extremely easy.

Picturesque accommodations in the heart of Tuscany

This was a great base for our explorations of the Chianti area of Tuscany. Franco was very accommodating, giving us recommendations for day trips before and during our stay. It was also very nice to have access to the two washing machines - they weren\'t too difficult to figure out. It was also surprisingly quiet considering there were other guests on the property.

Coming from California I was expecting a bit more in terms of wine tasting in this region and wish I would have done more research on this. Also, beware of the safety cameras all around Chianti while driving. It helps to have GPS so you know when you are approaching one.

owners were extremely helpful with suggestions for our day trips in the area. The hilltop countryside was spectacular and most of the time we could find our routes to the next destination without too much trouble

loved grocery shopping in the nearby town - seven little shops to get all of the items on our meal plan list

The kitchen could have had more appliances and serving dishes as we liked cooking in at least once a day either breakfast or supper.

Wish we stayed longer !!

This place is perfectly located for touring Toscana. We had our best night sleep in Italy at this property, located alone on a top of a hill, offering wonderful views on wine and olive cultures. We used our kitchenette every day, well equipped with everything you need. Beautiful pool with plenty of space for all guests to relax in a private space. Best deal for the buck in our entire stay in Italy. We will come back for sure !

The only negative point: we should have stayed a week, instead of two nights only.

Relaxing views everywhere! Sylvia and Franco were wonderful.

The owners were very helpful with maps, directions, etc. The views and relaxing on the patio out by the pool was so nice. We enjoyed being able to cook some meals and get to so many hill towns from our location.

The kids wished we had internet in the apartment.

Heaven on a Hill

Gazing at Tuscany from one side of the pool at Castellina in Chianti 45 never became old. Our hosts were a very warm and accommodating couple, who put their all into what they do. This was our favorite place to stay.

Wonderful Accommodation

This accommodation was lovely and the owners were very kind. In fact, the house was even nicer in person than it seemed on the website. There was a pool, laundry, ping-pong table and small \"library\". We woke up to lovely panoramic views of Tuscany each morning. It is set in the heart of the Tuscan countryside near many vineyards.

I have nothing negative to say except that wifi would\'ve been a plus. The owners were kind enough to let us use their computer though.

The place is really nice and clean. It provides a great number of facilities (laundry, BBQ, Pool, kitchen, etc). The owners are kind and really dedicated to the visitors (many thanks to Silvia!). We got many useful touristic infomation (how to move from one place to the other, where to eat, must to see places, where to kind parking in Firenze, etc... )... the only negative side is about the way to get to this place: very difficult to find. Please provide more detailed information on how to get there on Agritourismo.net web site. Otherwise, we could have wish to stay there longer ! Wonderful place.

Perfect place to stay in Chianti

The place was even better than the photos. We were welcomed by Franco and Silvia with maps of the area and suggestions of places to go. They even offered to book reservations for us! The rooms were clean and had everything we needed. Each night after touring around we would come back to the place for a swim, make our dinner in the kitchen in our room and then eat it out on the patio by the pool while watching hte sunset - it was absolutely perfect! Lots of little wineries to visit in the area which was perfect!

Can\'t think of any.
