Traveler Recommendation of
Tenuta Santo Pietro:

My husband and I just returned from a visit to Tuscany where we stayed at the Tenuta Santo Pietro in Pienza.  This property was in your Tuscany/Umbria guide, but was reported to not be accepting overnight guests.

After researching a bit further, we found that Santo Pietro in Pienza indeed was open after new owners had purchased and completely renovated the property.  Staying at this lovely villa was one of the highlights of our two week trip to Italy.

I thought you might like to know this so that you might consider keeping the property in your guide.  From the terra cotta floors to the wood beam ceilings to the beautiful but simple decorating details of the public rooms,
everything was relaxing yet elegant.  Breakfast was served on two large country dining tables just off of the kitchen where owner Giuseppe Savignano prepared us home-made chocolate croissants, pastries, fresh fruit, bread, granola and yogurt and of course capuccino.


The twelve bedrooms were all beautifully appointed with comfortable beds, down pillows and comforters, lovely linen accent pillows and curtains, completely updated and spacious bathrooms.  Our large room had an armoire
and a large dresser, chair and table, and a view looking out the vineyards toward the hilltop town of Pienza.


There were several public rooms where you could sit and read a book or enjoy a glass of wine before heading out for the evening.  A few of the rooms especially catered to families, with bunk beds for children.


The grounds were gorgeous, with a manicured lawn and formal herb garden that you pass as you walk to the pool. The scent of lavender and sage is heady especially after a rain. The view then overlooked the Savignano vineyards and olive grove.


Giuseppe took us to the wine cellar where his wine is produced and we enjoyed a wine tasting with another couple that was staying at the property.  One of the evenings he cooked us a five course traditional Tuscan dinner, complete with wine pairing---delicious!


I have been a travel agent for 25 years and have stayed in many interesting and wonderful places.  Tenuto Santo Pietro is definitely on my top ten list, and I hope you reinstate it in your guidebook!
