IL Poggetto, a slice of heaven on earth
Review Submitted: October 8, 2009
Date of Stay: May 2008
I have stayed here several times and have loved my stay each time (I now refuse to stay anywhere else when I am traveling to the Florence area). You can't help but fall in love with the beauty, the area, and the proprietors of this place. Once you enter the gates, the beauty of this hillside manor beckons you to feast your eyes on the lovingly maintained grounds and the patchwork Tuscan hillsides that are picture postcard perfect. La Loggia is inviting and warm, tastefully decorated in Tuscan decor. There is a great little kitchen where we prepared some meals from local fare purchased in neighboring hill towns. The location is perfect, in the heart of the Chianti region. By car, IL Poggetto is a 15-20 minute drive into FLORENCE where we parked at the train station for a minimal fee. It is also, a good 20 30 minute drive from Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and very close to many other hill towns that are worth a visit. If you are looking for a great location, beautiful surroundings, and warm wonderful people, then IL Poggetto is for you. Andrea, Ivanna and Guiseppe, you have spoiled us, thank you for every splendid moment! We plan to return again this coming May.
