Summary: This property is amazing! So quiet and serene away from the city. Visiting Florence is easy and I did it 2 times during my stay. U simply drive down the mountain about 15 min to San Lorenzo and catch 1hr train to Florence. The pool is amazing and the house has so much history. The drive up the mountain is about 15 minutes up some of it is unpaved but it is well WORTH it. Fantastic for families.

Summary: Up a mountainside and away from the hustle and bustle of the cities, my family and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this magical place! Set in beautiful country, it is a place of relaxation and of taking the time to slow down and spend good quality time together. The villa is steeped in impressive Italian history, and dates far far back, but also boasts all of the modern comforts of home, providing a unique place to escape. If you are a city mouse with little experience driving in the country, the drive up the hill may be a little daunting, but it is well worth it! Just be aware that it is about 20 mins to get into Borgo San Lorenzo, and then another 40 or so to Firenze. There is a train station with ample parking in Borgo San Lorenzo, so you can head into the city that way and not worry about the car there. The host Barbara is absolutely wonderful; she was incredibly communicative, shared all kinds of information, and was quite understanding when we arrived a bit later than expected. Really, she is a gem of a person and I am so glad to have met her. We also had Raffaele come to make us a fantastic mutli-course dinner at the villa, and he made adjustments to the menu based on my allergies. Our only regret is that we could not stay longer! Truly a wonderful experience if what you are looking for is some beautiful peace.

Summary: After an adventurous journey we arrived at night at this unique location up the Monte Giovi. Barbara waited for us and guided us the last kilometers. The house is greatly located, has lot of details. The kids loved the pool, the „chill room in the house“, the Trampolin and the table tennis Place and of course the horses! The parents had various places to relax and to enjoy the great nature. Barbara is a perfect host and is available for all kinds of questions, recommendations and wishes. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxed place, is this place perfect for you, but there are also plenty of activities if you want to. Barbara is a fantastic host. We definitely recommend this place! Grazie mille, Barbara!

Summary: Il Poggiolo provided the background for a wonderful holiday for all of us. There is so much room on the property and inside the house, that we never felt crowded, and although the unmade up road is a little long, once we had got used to doing our food shopping for more than one day at a time, everything was brilliant.

Summary: I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY. My wife and I rented the property for 2 weeks and invited 3 couples to join us. There was plenty of room, with even a 5th bedroom left vacant. The photographs on the site are accurate and show the property well. We had our breakfasts at the big kitchen table and, when we were home for dinner, ate in the large dining/living room on the second floor at a beautiful table that would have easily sat 10 people. The layout is as follows: on the first floor there are two bedrooms (1 king and one with two twin beds), a nice sitting room and a full bathroom. The second floor has 3 bedrooms (two queens and one other room with two twin beds), a beautiful, well-equipped kitchen, two full bathrooms (I with shower, one with a tub/shower) and a large sitting/dining room with windowed walls on either end. There is a nice dining table outside next to the propane grill, a large hammock and then stairs leading down to a nice pool equipped with plenty of seating options. Raffelele, one of the owners, is both a chef and a wine expert (The house is stocked with a wide range of wines with the price listed on each bottle). We contracted with Raffalele to cater a dinner at the house and it was wonderful. He brought linen and tableware, as well as a series of wines with each of the multiple courses. It was luxurious (dare I say decadent) to be served a perfect 2-3 hour meal in our own "home". I have worked in a variety of restaurants and I have to say that Raffalele's service was a good as any I have had anywhere. The house is located about 20 minutes outside of Borgo San Lorenzo (north of Florence on the A1 Autostrada). Borgo San Lorenzo has a convenient train station with free parking and trains that will get you into Florence quickly and comfortably (we recommend not driving in Florence). There is a also a big supermarket there where we did our shopping. As for other places to visit, Siena and Lucca are each well within two hours by car. We also recommend San Gimignano, Montecatini, Barga. Monteriggioni and Montalcino as wonderful small towns to visit. Barbara Vanucci was our main contact and she was great - she contacted us in advance with directions and useful suggestions and was available at all times for any questions. SMALL CAVEAT - the house is up in the hills and the drive up was a little daunting the first time, but don't lose heart - RENT THIS PROPERTY!!!!!

Summary: We had a fantastic time staying at Villa Poggiolo and was very well taken care of. I could really recommend to ask to get invited for a grappa/wine tasting at Rafael just a few houses away from the villa - truly a fantastic experience. The only thing to bring with is that it is very high up with very small roads to get there so once you are up at the houce you might not go down to the village that often.

Summary: A Fantastic very Italian old house up on the hillside, and with a very nice warm summer the pool was very popular! Clean nice rooms for us all (12). A house with a lott atmosphere, at a very quiet place. The road to the house is steep! The advertisement says 8' to Vicchio and 12' to Borgo San Lorenzo - the more correct time is 20' to Vicchio, 25' to Borgo San Lorenzo - but we will sure recomment the house and the invironment to our family.

Summary: We staid for one week and had a great time! We where 9 persons and had no problem at all since there is 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. We just loved the BBQ-area where we made food and had some good local wine. There is lots of good wine in the house also that you can bye. The pictures are beautiful, but it's even more beautiful on site. The garden and the view over the valley is incredible! Only problem was that we only staid for one week :) 20 min drive to a great and big Coop where you can bye food. Also 20 min drive to the train station where you can take the train to Firenze. You need to have a car if you stay here, and I don´t recommend a sports car since the last bit of the road is a bit bumby. Barbara, the owner is fantastic to. We just loved it and hope that we can revisit Villa Poggiolo soon again! Highly recommended!
