Il Borghetto Country Inn Sketch
Karen's Review Of
Il Borghetto Country Inn:
Il Borghetto Country Inn is an absolute dream, an idyllic hideaway in one of the most enchanting areas of Tuscany. It is owned by the Cavallini family who originally bought a farmhouse in the heart of the exquisite Chianti district to use as a family weekend retreat. When the adjacent farmhouse came on the market, they bought it too, restored it to perfection, and opened a tiny hotel. What makes this small inn so special is that it is a family operation. The father, Roberto Cavallini, watches over the operation from Milan, his son, Antonio, is the on-site manager, and the charming daughter, Ilaria, ably helps out. Guests have their own intimate, beautifully decorated lounge, which also serves as the breakfast room (in warm weather breakfast is served outside on the lovely terrace). Rosie Cavallini did all the decorating and every detail is of superb quality with beautiful fabrics, original paintings, abundant displays of fresh flowers, Oriental carpets, and fine antiques. But the best I’ve saved for last—a sweeping vista of olive groves and vineyards that produce extra virgin olive oil, Chianti Classico and Merlot wine. Tours and wine tasting in the cellar are available, as well as on-site cooking courses which include food and art tours in Florence, Siena and the surrounding countryside.

Ah, where do I begin? Il Borghetto is an incredibly beautiful country inn, located just this side of heaven. It typifies Tuscan living, with warm and inviting interior colors, extremely comfortable and clean accommodations, and views that are unparalled. The grounds are rich with foliage native to Tuscany, and the pool is nestled into the landscape perfectly, so as not to appear like a ’resort’. The staff we met, Cristina, Paola, and Carmella, were like long lost family members, warm and delight...

This is an excellent b and b. The staff is tops. All it would take to make my rating a 5 star is a bit more variation of breakfast and perhaps the addition of some meats (same cheese 4 days in a row). We stayed in a 2 bedroom house. The kitchen was not completely equipped but it did not matter to us.

I strongly suggest to the property owners that a mirror be installed at the junction of the driveway and road since there is a ’blind intersection’. We nearly got hit by a fast moving...
