This property and the owners are wonderful. Stephon and Sergio were the best hosts ever! The dinners they prepared were excellent. Thier hospitality went over and above the norm. I would definitely stay here again. Sylvia

If you want to experience Tuscany, this is an excellent choice. We chose the property for three reasons: size (we had to sleep 7, and this was done easily), view from the property (absolutely gorgeous vistas at different times of the day, particularly sunset), and accessibility to the A1 so that we could visit other sites (about 20 minutes to the A1, and very easy access to many different regions of Tuscany).

The villa is a "real" place - one in which you could feel comfortable. And it was set in a community. An agriturismo just 10 minutes walk sold very fresh eggs, excellent olive oil, wine - and also meals if you booked in advance. The owners of the property bent over backwards to make us comfortable. Just one note - the road to get to the villa is narrow - but this also became part of the charm of the place.

The villa and grounds were unbelievably beautiful. We were surrounded by roses, an olive grove, fruit trees on the property, with lovely areas to sit outside and gaze at the surrounding countryside. The villa was decorated in traditional Tuscan style with much attention to detail. We loved our week there. It was the highlight of our trip

This is a great villa for a group holiday. The house and grounds are actually better than the photos show. The location is close to Cortona, although too far to walk uphill, but centrally located for short side trips to the hilltop villages throughout this part of Tuscany. The owner is friendly and helpful, suggesting side trips and recommending local wineries and restaurants. Highly recommended.

October, 2009. We were very satisfied with our stay at Borgo Cappelli 3 over our stay of 5 days. The owner was friendly and helpful. The 2 double bedrooms and bathroom were very nice. The kitchen was adequate although an oven,microwave and small sofa would have been nice. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the Tuscan villages yet still close enough to the highway. Shopping was a five minute drive away in Poggibonsai-a big PAM supermarket and a n inexpensive Penny Market supermarket as well. Five minutes north is the very sweet town of Barberoni-good but more expensive COOP store there and lots of charming places to eat. The villa does not supply basic supplies such as sugar,coffee,napking so you'll have to buy these. Considering that we were traveling on a budget, the price was perfect for us and as I've said, the location was wonderful. Thank you Barbera for a lovely stay.
