Karen's Review Of This Property:

Il Caggio is a delightful agriturismo farm, distinguishing itself from the many others by the sincere and warm hospitality of its owners, Gabriella and Paolo, and the superb quality of the meals. Conveniently located close to the main autostrada, guests have this corner of Chianti at their fingertips, from Siena, Cortona, Chianti, to Arezzo. Two bedrooms and two apartments are in part of the main stone house and an adjacent house. All are carefully appointed in a creative, country-style with great attention to details and the comfort of guests. All accommodations have private entrances from the exterior. In the rustic main house, the ambiance really warms up around Gabriella’s dinner table where a non-stop series of aperitifs, pasta specialties, and a dessert buffet are served, accompanied by good local wine. An abundant breakfast with more of Gabriella’s homemade, baked cakes awaits guests in the morning. A swimming pool behind the house bordering the woods is available, as well as a six-person hot hydro-jet pool. Convinced that their guests will enjoy their stay, their brochure warns: An extended stay here generates a sense of well-being with a tendency to forget about problems, tempting one to postpone going back home!

Our stay at Casale il Caggio was wonderful! The view of the country is amazing from their back patio and pool. Gabriella and Paulo are charming hosts and made every day the best. Gabriella is a wonderful cook...every meal she and Dora cooked were delicious. Gabriella also offers cooking class, she taught my mother and how to make lasagna from scratch, spinach raviolis, papa pomodoro and so much more. This is defintely a place I will stay at again.

We stayed at Casale Il Caggio in Tuscany as a result of visiting your website. We found the accommodation fantastic and the food served quite beyond description. Babriella and Paolo were so charming. We highly recommend this establishment.
