Podere Salicotto

Podere Salicotto enjoys spectacular unobstructed views of the Tuscan countryside, including Montalcino, home of famed Brunello wine, and, on a clear day, Siena. The inviting rooms have been decorated with care and efficiency in mind. Beds are comfortably firm (for my taste) and the showers have ample pressure. The Podere is beautifully managed by Silvia and her husband Paolo, former Milanesi who have realized their dream of restoring and owning a property here in the Crete Senesi. Silvia is a f...

Podere Salicotto enjoys spectacular unobstructed views of the Tuscan countryside, including Montalcino, home of famed Brunello wine, and, on a clear day, Siena. The inviting rooms have been decorated with care and efficiency in mind. Beds are comfortably firm (for my taste) and the showers have ample pressure. The Podere is beautifully managed by Silvia and her husband Paolo, former Milanesi who have realized their dream of restoring and owning a property here in the Crete Senesi. Silvia is a font of knowledge on things to do and where to dine in the surrounding area. She even recommended a great hairdresser to me in the nearby town of Buonconvento! Morning brunch is usually a cheery group affair, with sunny dining available outside under the pergola, weather permitting. For those with a sweet tooth Neda makes the most delicious fresh cakes to complement local cheeses, salumi, jams, honey, yoghurt, bread, cereal, fruit, in short a veritable feast of dining. I confess to being addicted to Podere Salicotto, its splendid, peaceful location and charming, ever-so-helpful owners, having stayed on four separate occasions over the past two years. Bravi, Silvia and Paolo!

My husband, myself and 3 other couples arrived together at the Podere Salicotto for a one week dream Italian vacation. From the warm and friendly reception by owners, Paolo and Silvia to the fantastic views of the striking Tuscan scenery, we were thoroughly enchanted. The property is very private and peaceful, but close to the town of Buonconvento. Podere Salicotto also is close to many beautiful towns in the surrounding countryside.

My husband, myself and 3 other couples arrived together at the Podere Salicotto for a one week dream Italian vacation. From the warm and friendly reception by owners, Paolo and Silvia to the fantastic views of the striking Tuscan scenery, we were thoroughly enchanted. The property is very private and peaceful, but close to the town of Buonconvento. Podere Salicotto also is close to many beautiful towns in the surrounding countryside. The rooms are very clean and charmingly decorated. We were able to enjoy fresh food items from their garden served on their lovely terrace overlooking the Tuscan hills. As a group we were able to enjoy a cooking class which was organized by Silvia. A great learning experience. Paolo took 4 of us out on a one day chartered sailing trip. We sailed and swam in the gorgeous waters off of the Island of Elba. It was a memorable highlight. My husband and I have stayed in many Karen Brown recommended accommodations throughout Europe and Britain. This is one of the best!
