This villa was magnificent. Everything we could have hoped for and more? Views were extraordinary and a perfect location to experience Montalcino. The hosts were great as well - accessible, helpful and friendly. We loved it!

Absolutely fantastic Villa for our family’s visit to Tuscany. We had a lovely time taking day trips to Florence, Sienna, Luca and San Gimignano which was a true find. We also changed plans a bit just to enjoy time in the Villa itself. It truly is the perfect Tuscan experience. We can not wait to return.

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Guido was a wonderful host, and gave us tips about restaurant to dine and small places to visit that is out of tourist destinations. The house is easy to find using google map, and it was very well maintained. We really enjoyed the garden and veranda, and we had breakfast outside in the garden everyday, the view was stunning and unforgettable. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a quite and relaxing Italian country vacation.

Remarkable house with a lovely secondary house. Amazing views from both the pool and terrace. Outdoor eating areas were fabulous. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. Property is a half to an hour away from various cities including Gubbio, Perugia, Cortona and Assisi. The owners are absolutely lovely people. The place was spotless. Their home-made prosecco and olive oil were remarkable. We highly recommend!

If you are looking for a beautiful and relaxing retreat in the middle of the heart of Tuscany, Podere Palazzo is the place to stay. While we weren't familiar with D'orcia prior to our trip, it is an ideal location as it's a short drive from everything Tuscany has to offer (including Montalcino, Montepulciano, and Pienza). Definitely try D'orcia wine as well, it's up there with the better known wines of the area - but is a hidden gem. We loved it!
We were traveling as two couples, each with a child under the age of 2 and the property was exactly what we were hoping for. It is perched on top of a hill with sweeping views of typical Tuscan rolling hills (every room in the house has an amazing view). The property is surrounded by some large trees which helps keep the property cool in the heat of the day, and the pool was an absolute treat after a day of wine tasting. The house is a converted old farm house, and both the interior and exterior have been refinished to a high standard. It perfectly blends rustic charm with modern luxury. I really don't know how our trip could have been any more relaxing (even considering we had a 3 month old with us)
We highly recommend hiring a local chef (you can ask the owner for details). We hired a chef to cook for us 3 nights during our stay, and it was truly a blessing. Not having to worry about a meal on the day we arrived worked out perfectly, as we arrived on a Sunday and most of the local super markets were closed.. Going out for dinner is nearly impossible with young children, so having the chef come to us after the kids were asleep was one of the highlights of the trip. The food was amazing as well.

Wow this property was simply stunning and well suited our needs. The owner Roberto went above and beyond to help us as we got lost on trying to first find the property and he drove to meet us. We arrived to the most spectacular bowl of fresh fruit and some water and milk in the fridge which were most needed as we arrived on a Sunday when everything is closed although there is a garage ten minute drive away that sells a few bits and the coop supermarket it about 5 minute drive away. The pool was fabulous and don’t worry about it being not heated it’s warm enough and just perfect to cool off in. There’s a solar heated shower next to the pool to. Roberto owns the surrounding land too and there’s a stream running down the back. The house was spotless and has everything we needed as a family of two adults and two children. I just wish we could have stayed for longer.
