“Fabulous!”

Stunning and.peaceful location, clean and well maintained facilities. Lovely restaurant right next door. Everything you need for self catering or you can take a short drive to explore pretty local villages. Super helpful and friendly owners. Take a walk to a local winery - Buonodonno was lovely - Sylvia happily booked this for us and gave us a handy map on how to get there as well as other places in the area. Bliss!

Franco and his wife were so helpful with making sure we knew where everything was, providing great info on things to do and eat, setting up winery visits, and even got us into a cooking class on site at the last minute. The environment was simple and peaceful. We are already talking about going back with our family.

Poor bed pillows and internet, but we understand internet is hard to get in the country.

La struttura è molto bella e immersa nel verde. Siamo stati in un periodo poco fortunato per il meteo, ma contiamo di tornarci per usufruire della piscina e dei barbecue presenti in giardino. Il proprietario è stato molto gentile e ci ha dato tanti consigli per girare la zona.

Il wifi non prendeva benissimo, ma onestamente molto meglio per riuscire davvero a godersi dei giorni di totale tranquillità.

Es war einfach traumhaft! Unser Appartement für 4 Personen war sehr großzügig mit toller Panoramaterrasse, zusätzlich noch viele Sitz- und Grillmöglichkeiten (2 tolle Gasgrills) beim Pool, ebenfalls mit herrlicher Aussicht. Es gibt einen kleinen Spielplatz, Tischtennis, Tischkicker, Malsachen, Spiele, Bücher. Der Pool ist hervorragend mit vielen Liege- und Sitzmöglichkeiten, man muss keine Sorge haben keine Liege zu bekommen und es gibt ausreichend Platz um nicht direkt nebeneinander liegen zu müssen. Es gibt ausreichend Sonnenschirme. Alles war supersauber, die Besitzer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, bei Ankunft bekommt man eine Liste welche Events es in der Gegend gibt. In unserem Appartement gab es einen großen Kühlschrank mit großzügigem Eisfach, eine Spülmaschine, Fernseher, zwei neue Klimaanlagen, eine Gemeinschaftswaschine. Gleich neben der Unterkunft ist eine Osteria, im nächsten Dorf Supermarkt, Kneipen und Restaurants. Es ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt um z.B. San Giminangno, Siena, Florenz,Volterra zu besichtigen. Alles war supertoll

Es gab für uns keine negativen Aspekte

L’accueil est parfait! Nous avons reçu des conseils et des bons plans pour notre séjour en Toscane. Les propriétaires sont très sympathiques, disponibles et discrets. L’appartement était très propre, grand et très bien agencé. Nous avions tout se qu’il fallait. Les extérieurs sont géniaux! Les autres logements étaient occupés, mais nous avions le sentiment d’être les seuls tant il y a d’espace. La propriété est au calme, l’idéal pour déconnecter et se ressourcer. Un petit restaurant délicieux et sympathique se trouve de l’autre côté de la rue. Nous ne pouvons que recommander le lieu!

Eau froide à l’évier de la cuisine. Faire la vaisselle des 1-2 petites choses du déjeuner pouvait éviter de faire tourner le lave-vaisselle. Mais c’est vraiment qu’un détail.

Wonderful view of Tuscany from the poolside, especially in the evening. The communal sitting and eating areas were plentiful and the Borgo never felt too full. Sylvia and Franco were always busy and helpful making sure everything was ok. They seemed very relaxed, which was reassuring.

Our apartment had no terrace (some do, some don't), we knew this in advance, but there is a fair distance from the apartment to the tables and chairs with a view. However, once we were outside none of this really mattered.

It is perfectly placed in the heart of Chianti in Tuscany with charming villages, wine fields and olive trees. We would like to get back to this beautiful place.

We had a very lovely 5 nigths in June 2022. It was everything we could’ve dreamed of in a Tuscany holiday. The grounds/buildings/facilities were excellent and created a very relaxing environment. Franco and Sylvia were the perfect hosts, giving us recommendations (even where to find parking in the various cities!) and making many reservations for us. The restaurant across the road is a wonderful advantage. The views are Tuscany at its best. We hope to be back soon!

“UN ENDROIT CALME ET REPOSANT”

9 Read the complete review

Nous n'avons séjourné que 4 nuits mais nous aurions dû y séjourner une semaine car ce gîte est un bon point de départ pour visiter Pise, San Gimignano, Sienne, Florence, etc. L'accueil des propriétaires est chaleureux et efficace avec une gentille attention (bouteille de vin de la région). L'appartement était agréable et le jardin et l'espace piscine fleuris et bien entretenus avec une belle vue sur la campagne toscane. Nous ne les avons pas utilisés mais le gîte dispose aussi d'une machine à laver, d'espaces de jeux, de barbecue. Bref, un très bel endroit au calme après une journée de visite....

Il n'y a pas d'aspects négatifs à proprement parlé mais nous avons juste regretté de ne pas être dans un appartement en rez-de-chaussée qui nous aurait permit de prendre le petit-déjeuner et le dîner sur les petites tables dehors. Si nous devions revenir, ce serait une condition importante pour nous.

“Charming Tuscan Apartments in Stunning Hillside Setting”

The apartment we stayed in had three double bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom and TV. One of the rooms also had a second smaller bed. The proeprty had so many fun things to do. Among other things, there was a beautiful swimming pool overlooking the Tuscan hills, a ping-pong table, BBQ pits for guests' use, and bicycles for rent. But the best part of our stay here -- as well as our entire stay in Italiy! -- was the private onsite cooking class that the hosts arranged for us with a Tuscan chef who is well-known in the areas around Florence. There is also a nice restaurant onsite, which is convenient if you don't want to travel to eat out. The hosts were gracious and accommodating for all of our needs and questions. Free parking is included in the price.

I really can't think of any negatives about this place. We would definitely come here again.

Our self-catering apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The various bbqs on the property also provided options although we didn't use them. Instead, we took advantage of the little osteria across the road that had everything - good food, friendly staff and various semi-adopted animals, including a fox named Michael J Fox that appeared every dinner time without fail. The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. Great pool! The owners took care of cleaning the tables and sunbeds regularly. Shaded parking also available.

Comment by the Owner Hello, thank you for the review, we are happy you liked our property; about the extra bed, we are sorry but we aren’t a private house, we have to follow the rules and for the authority, in our property, in the apartments for 2 people, we can only host an extra bed for a child until 12 yrs old. We offered an apartment for 4 guests, the apartments for 3 adults wasn’t available but the second night, when you were 2 people only, you paied like an apartment for 2 people instead an apartment for 4 people.

Franco and his wife were exceptional hosts providing a warm welcome and taking time to provide informative tips to make the best of our stay. The pizza party was a delightful surprise that allowed guests to meet each other and the homemade pizza was delicious. The complex is lovely with good character and is very clean. We enjoyed dinners on the common area stone patio with outstanding views of the Chianti landscape. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave. This is one of the few places we stayed in Italy with screened windows - a real treat to keep the mosquitos out while you sleep.

Omistajat ovat erittäin ystävällisiä ja avuliaita. He antoivat meille loistavia vinkkejä autoiluun lähialueen kaupungeissa, järjestivät viinitilavierailun sekä antoivat tietoa alueen nähtävyyksistä ja tapahtumista.Maisemat ovat upeat ja ympäristö on rauhallinen ja luonnonläheinen.Oivallinen sijainti rentoutumiseen, mutta myös vierailuun lähikaupungeissa ja kylissä. Suosittelemme lämpimästi!

Silvia and Franco were fantastic hosts - they provided us with a great bike to tour the (very) hilly areas around Borgo Sicelle, provided us with tips on fantastic and affordable restaurants in the region, helped us make reservations and find lodging for our next destination, etc.., etc.. In essence, they helped us with everything we needed to make our stay in the region comfortable. The young child with us (7) had plenty to do with the swimming pool, books, foosball and table tennis and the adults had lots of time to relax around the pool and on the terrace overlooking the lovely Tuscan landscape.

We had a wonderful stay at Borgo Sicelle. The location and accommodations were wonderful. The views were stunning. Franco and Silvia were amazing hosts. Their advice, tips and suggestions made our stay extra special. Our flight was delayed, and instead of arriving at 7 in the evening, we arrived at 1:30 in the morning. Franco stayed up to meet us and check us in. We were so grateful! Some of our bags and car boosters were lost by the airline for 2 days, and Silvia was very kind and let us borrow boosters, clothes for the kids, etc. Franco and Silvia's hospitality is at a highest level. If you plan to vacation in this area, Borgo Sicelle should be your lodging place of choice.

Franco the owner was extremely helpful and friendly. My mom celebrated her 80th birthday on this trip and Franco supplied a tray of cakes! The apartment was clean and the kitchen fully equipped . It looked just like the photos on their website. It was everything I had hoped for and more.

The views from the pool are typical Tuscany - it doesn't get much better. It is in a quiet location but easy to get to Florence and Siena. The owners were very friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble. If you are after a relaxing vacation in the countryside then this is the place to be. I rate it a 10 out of 10.

Close to many things, short ride to San Donato and supermarket, gorgeous view from pool.

Can't think of any

Most apartments face an inner court or trees while a few face the pool area. We much prefer to face the pool and get the valley view, so keep that in mind if you book during busy season. Even with a courtyard view, it's just a few steps to the pool and deck area. Parking is about 80 metres downhill, but you can drop passengers and groceries at the upper entrance with no problem. I would recommend this place and gladly return. Franco and Sylvia are great hosts !

Beaucoup de points positifs: la situation du gîte situé entre Florence et Sienne. Possibilité de visiter les principales villes de Toscane depuis le gîte. Un accueil très sympathique et très professionnel. Une bouteille de chianti est offerte à l'arrivée. Les propriétaires sont discrets tout en étant toujours très disponibles pour répondre aux questions. Une liste des concerts de la semaine dans les environs ainsi que des marchés est remise. Tout cela facilite énormément l'organisation des journées et des visites. Le gîte est très bien tenu. On y trouve toutes les commodités (lave linge, séchoir, wifi, aire de jeux avec ping pong, baby foot et jouets pour enfants en très bas âge, barbecue..). Une piscine très agréable offre un magnifique panorama sur la campagne. la disposition des gîtes permet une intimité suffisante et en même temps, les espaces communs offrent à ceux qui le veulent une convivialité très agréable. L'endroit est très calme. Jolie petite église à proximité du gîte et un restaurant très apprécié des touristes et des locaux, semble-t-il. À proximité également, le petit village de San Donato avec possibilité de faire ses courses. Très pratique.

Aucun.

Prendre son temps: dégustation de vins (les chiantis mais aussi le vernaccia de san gimignano, le montecarlo rouge), se renseigner sur les concerts de la région (beaucoup sont organisés par les élèves du conservatoire et gratuits), prendre les petites routes à travers les vignes et les oliviers. S'arrêter pour contempler la campagne toscane sous la lumière du soleil déclinant sur le soir, découvrir des chefs d'oeuvre de la renaissance italienne dans les églises et musées.

Location; you're not very far, in any direction, from lots of villages and towns. The rooms are quite basic but the bedrooms sizes are generous and the kitchen/dining room is fine for us. Franco and Silvia are lovely. They are continually working on the gardens etc. And they have expanded the communal areas since we were last there 5 years ago. They are improving facilities based on client feedback with regard to what people want. They now have 2 types of barbeque; gas and charcoal. There is also a large oven for general use too, so if you want to cook outside, there's no need to keep running back to the apartment.

The bathroom's a bit small although the shower is generous and the kitchen's only basic but we only cook breakfast so not a problem for us.

Take plenty of books to chill out at the pool if it's too hot to do the tourist bit. This was our 2nd stay, I very much doubt it'll be our last.

The area was very nice and beautiful. In fact, it reflected exactly what I tought the Tuscany Valley looked like from the pictures I had seen before we arrived. We had a beautiful view. Everything was so clean, our appartment, the environement outside our appartment, the pool area, etc. I had never seen such a cleaned place. The owners were extremely nice and helpful. They are proud of their place and they really take care of it beautifully. The appartement was provided with everything we needed. Even the soap for washing our clothes was provided. I give a note of A+ .

There is none. I would have preferred an appartment with the patio in the back to see the beautiful view. But I did not think of asking when I made the reservation.

I highly recommend Borgo Sicelle. It is well located the the Tuscany Valley and you can travel easily from there to Florence, Sienne, etc. We went to Cinque Terre and it was easy.

paysage splendide, en pleine nature ! Lumière du soir envouthante ! Cadre calme et reposant ! Confort du logement; bon agencement, bien pensé ! nombreux et très utiles conseils des propriétaires pour les visites touristiques dans la région. Nombreux services communs aux différents logements.

Parfois trop de vis-à-vis avec les autres vacanciers, notamment pour les terrasses. La piscine pourrait être plus profonde et utilisable plus tard voire dans la nuit !

Borgo Sicelle est idéalement situé entre Florence et Sienne, non loin de San Gimignianno et des autres beautés toscanes ! Au coeur des vignes du Chianti et des forêts ! Baigné d'une douce lumière du soir où, au soleil couchant, les pierres s'embrasent!

Objectivement aucun. Vraiment. Après mon 3é séjour en Toscane j'ai le sentiment d'avoir trouvé l'endroit parfait. Vraiment si on veut en trouver un petit, la connexion internet pas toujours au top mais on ne vient pas dans un endroit aussi magnifique pour passer son temps derrière un écran.

Le petit resto juste en face est pas mal du tout. La pizza à San Donato à côté du Coop, ambiance à la bonne franquette mais ce n'est pas un hasard si les 3/4 du village s'y retrouvent le week-end.

We've spend a fantastic holiday at Borgo Sicelle. The location of Borgo Sicelle is ideal for discovering the Chianti region. The apartment was well-equipped and very clean and practical with a nice terrace where we had our meals. Silvia and Franco are very nice and helpful, working very hard all day to allow all their guests to have a wonderful holiday. Borgo Sicelle is definitely a place to recommend: nice owners, good,accommodation, wonderful views from the garden, beautiful pool, nice sunset, good wine, friendly Italians... We'll certainly come back!

Franco & Silvia are very helpful owners of the property. The location is beautiful with good amenities for older people and for family holidays.

I have no negative comment to make.

We visited a vineyard for a wine tasting and arranged to have wine shipped back to the UK. Borgo Sicelle is conveniently located for east access to Sienna, Florence and a number of Chianti wine villages. Franco & Silvia provided most helpful travel and parking information for our visits to Sienna & Florence. They also made bookings for our visit to the Uffizi and Academia. We enjoyed a superb holiday at a beautiful and well appointed venue. There was a very nice mix of older couples and young couples with families, all of whom it was a delight to meet. I strongly recommend Borgo Sicelle to anyone seeking a holiday in Tuscany.

We really cannot say anything negative about this place, it is so perfect for a couple.

Borgo Sicelle is a beautiful fully restored farmhouse complex. We stayed in apartment 9 which had its own patio area with fantastic views. The communal BBQ area, and large sunbathing terrace alongside the pool, was always kept clean and tidy. We were very sad to leave such a peaceful relaxing place, and will certainly recommend it to everyone. Thank you Franco and Sylvia.

We were extremely well looked after by Franco and Sylvia, and nothing was ever too much trouble. They have a wealth of knowledge of places to visit and (most importantly) available car parking and advice on where to eat in the local area. Just across the lane there is a “rustic” restaurant, with good food, friendly service, views of the sunsets, and very reasonable prices. There are some nice walks around the area, and bikes to borrow if you wish.

The remote location was beautiful and relaxing - a handy drive to Siena or Firenze. Hosts were amazing, treated us to their own labelled chianti. The facilities were great - play room, pool, BBQ spot, loungers. All wonderful. I wish I had stayed here longer than 3 nights!!!

We stayed in a 2 bed apartment and it felt a bit dated, but we weren't in there too much, with the beauty outside. Also the internet would only work if you were outside, in very specific spots. Not ideal. But, better than nothing.

Don't miss San Gimignano ... not too far away, and for me, better than the crazy hussle of Firenze.

Out of 5 places we traveled in Italy, this was our favorite and it was still affordable. I really really recommend staying here.

There is a charming restaurant just across the road and we also enjoyed one of our best dining experiences at another restaurant in San Donato, La Toppa, located only about 4 km away. There are several charming villages within a short drive, too. Even though a bit cool for swimming. we all enjoyed a dip & relax by the pool!

“Wonderful stay in the heart of Toscana”

10 Read the complete review

The facilities are awesome at Borgo Sicelle with a surrounding to match. The owners (Franco and Silvia) look after you and make you feel very welcome. A wonderful stay all around.

None

Take insect spray in middle of summer - particularly by the pool. The walk from Borgo Sicelle to Panzano (~1.5 hrs) is great - Ask Silvia for directions - and make sure to stop in Panzano the "Il Vinaio" Enoteca, on the corner by the Church. For the BEST gelato we had in 2 weeks in Italy go to Castellina-in-Chianti (can't remember the name, was in the via Della Volte). Other than that just soak in the Tuscan hills and take it easy!

“un séjour enchateur et des propriétaires charmants”

- Franco et Silvia, les propriétaires sont charmants: ils sont à l'écoute des moindres questions et donnent de bons conseils pour les visites - le cadre est magnifique, la vue sur les vallées du Chainti depuis la piscine est sublime - le gite est bien placé, parfait pour silloner la Toscane - l'appartement est bien meublé, certes rustique, mais avec tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un bon séjour - les équipements sont très satisafaisants: piscine, ping pong, livres, vélos, four à pizza, barbecue...

- beaucoup de moustiques et d'insectes: l'anti moustique en spray était insuffisant tellement il y en avait! - j'aurais préféré un pommeau de douche amovible

L'endroit est parfait pour visiter toute la Toscane. Une voiture est indispensable. Le restaurant la Piazza à quelques kilomètres est très bien. gite à destination plus famille que couple.

L'accueil des propriétaires a été très chaleureux (nous avons beaucoup apprécié la soirée pizza)et l'agritourisme est idéal pour séjourner avec de jeunes enfants (piscine, ping pong, baby foot). Le cadre, au milieu des collines, est idyllique et l'emplacement est idéal, à moins de 30 minutes de Florence, Sienne, San Gimignano...Les logements sont très confortables et d'une propreté irréprochable.

Il n'y en a pas, et pourtant nous sommes exigeants !

N'hésitez pas à emprunter des vélos pour une petite balade ou à vous faire conseiller un endroit où acheter des glaces succulentes à proximité. Les propriétaires, sans être envahissants, sont toujours disponibles et de bon conseil.

L'acceuil,la grande gentillesse des propriétaires discrets ,disponibles et serviables.Le site, la propreté, le calme , la situation géographique car c'est à proximité des endroits à visiter, Florence Sienne, etc.Le rapport qualité-prix.La piscine. Tout était parfait. Nous étions une famille et des amis et tous nous avons été charmés par Borgo Sicelle.

Honnêtement, nous ne trouvons aucun point négatif.

Sylvia et Franco nous ont reçus chaleureusement, Ils étaient disponibles pour nous donner l'information sur ce qui se déroulait dans les différents endroits que nous voulions visiter. EX: Le Festival Médiéval de VOLTERRA, la pratique de la course du Palio à Sienne, la veille de cette course.Les meilleurs endroits où aller faire notre marché.Ils nous ont reçus à souper, avec pizza sur four à bois vin, bière et breuvage à volonté . Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette soirée. Nous avons fait connaissance avec leurs enfants et la grand-maman.Des gens simples , calmes , ce séjour en Toscane a été une pause culturelle et relaxante.Je recommande à tous cet endroit.

Everything was wonderful - the owners were extremely helpful, the apartment was lovely and the setting was glorious. They even cooked us pizzas on te Sunday evening.

The only downside to this agriturismo is the lack of a shop within walking distance. The nearest town - San Donato - is only a ten minute drive away, but we did find ourselves caught short for breakfast a few times.

Make sure you try the restaurant across the street from the apartments. THe best food and wine of the trip. We went back several times!

“For anden gang har vi holdt vores "Triennale" på Borgo Sicelle. Det perfekte sted for vores traditionsrige arrangement, som handler om, at en flok gode venner tilbringer en uge sammen med individuelle udflugter og fælles aftener, højdepunktet er en”

10 Read the complete review

Den hjælp, vi får både til at arrangere koncert - Franco fremskaffede f. eks. et lejeklaver - og festmiddag, igen har Franco fundet kokken, som efter aftale om menuen stiller et ægte italiensk, velsmagende og smukt udseende måltid på festbordene. Ligesom Silvia og Franco foretog indkøb for mig, så jeg på ankomstdagen kunne stille herlig skinke, salami og oste frem til alle, når de nåede frem. Sammen med at glas kølig prosecco af bedste art. Under hele opholdet gav begge værter os effektiv hjælp til at opfylde hvert eneste ønske - bl.a.skaffe kontakt til en fodboldbane, hvor vi kunne afholde en vigtig fodboldturnering. Hos os vandt Brasilien, iført landsholdtrøjer, som vores "sportschef" havde med hjemmefra til begge hold. Danmark i de røde trøjer, måtte lide et forsmædeligt nederlag.Og så er det pragtfuldt altid at blive mødt med smil og venlighed og vendingen "No problems".

Der er intet negativt at sige om Borgoen og værtsfamilien. Selv ikke med den bedste vilje til at nuancere.

Også til familier, der bare vil være sig selv, kan jeg anbefale Borgo Sicelle på det varmeste. Der er masser af muligheder for at være privat. Og se bare på billeder fra stedet - det er lige så smukt og velholdt, som det ser ud. Og landskab, nærliggende byer og udflugtsmål er bare: alt det bedste i Toscana.

Silvia and Franco could not have been more friendly and accommodating. I traveled to Italy with my wife, our boy and her mother in June and we enjoyed a great stay at their place. Everything was clean, the views were spectacular and it was a short drive to both Florence and Siena. Also, there is a very good and charming restaurant just across the road and we also enjoyed one of our best dining experiences at another restaurant (Osteria La Piazza), located only about 1 kilometer away. There are several charming villages within a short drive, too. Our boy loved the swimming pool! Franco was very kind and when I casually mentioned we were headed to Florence one day, he immediately took out a map and marked the best place to park.

Don't miss out on Osteria La Piazza, just 1 kilometer down the road!

9.1 Read the complete review

Nous y avons séjourné 6 nuits en mai 2014. Situation magnifique, surplombant une vallée de vignobles et d'oliveraies. Très calme. Immense terrain de toute beauté avec piscine, fleurs et typique de la Toscane. Les proprios sont d'une grande gentillesse. Appartement très propre, deux belles grandes chambres, salle de bain impecca ble, mais...

Deux bémols et deux gros : premièrement, il n'y avait pas de chauffage. Entre autre, nous nous sommes levées un matin et il faisait 11°C dans la cuisine, et très humide. Impossible de chauffer malgré notre demande. Deuxièment, ne pas oublier de demander un appart au rez-de-chaussée. Nous étions au 2e étage, avec de toutes petites fenêtres. Une minuscule cuisine, très sombre (assez bien équipée)avec 4 chaises et une table. Aucun séjour. Aucun fauteuil pour passer les soirées. Ces deux choses ont complètement gâté notre séjour. Nous n'avons pas vu les autres appartements, donc nous ne pouvons dire s'ils sont tous semblables. Par contre, certains au rez-de-chaussée ont de petites terrasses, ce qui est déjà beaucoup mieux. Désolées, mais c'est notre opinion.

Bon resto à proximité (5 min.en voiture) à Castellina in Chianti : Osteria Alla Piazza

Comment by the Owner Cher Client Merci pour votre avis et pour le beau message que vous avez écrit « Situation magnifique ....Les proprios sont d'une grande gentillesse .… deux belles grandes chambres, salle de bain impeccable » et aussi pour la reponse à notre message après le retour in Québec «… And thanks again for the lovely stay at your home ». Mais nous sommes désolés pour les choses que vous avez écrit par la suite et que nous voulons clarifier: Il y a le chauffage central dans l’appartement mais pour l’autorité de Sienne on peut donner le chauffage seulement du 1 Octobre au 30 Avril. Vers la moitié de mai on peut avoir des matins plus froids et pendant la journée il y avait plus que 20 degrés. Nous vous avons fait une description détaillée de l’appartement n. 3: « Pour 4 personnes, trois pièces, 55 m2, composé d’une petite cuisine, télévision par satellite, 2 chambres double, une salle de bain avec douche. Au premier etage. Nous n’avons écrit que l’appartement avait le séjour. Il n'est pas possible de mettre un canapé dans cuisine. Nous pensons aussi que 3 fenêtres 90 x 125 cm ne sont pas petites mais nous avons aussi des appartements avec des fenêtres plus grandes . Nous avons restauré ''les deux caractéristiques maisons'' à Borgo Sicelle en essayant de respecter l'architecture originale. Si vous voulez venir encore une fois à Borgo Sicelle, nous serons très heureux, nous choisirons ensemble un appartement au rez-de-chaussée. Cordialement. Franco e Silvia

We booked a two bedroom apartment for my adult daughter and myself and my bedroom, especially, was huge! The view was beautiful and the availability of the little restaurant next door was very pleasing! The owners were extremely helpful and friendly and emailed me maps so I could find my way. I would definitely come back and stay here again.

The only thing I would say is that access is a bit difficult due to the location - the road is windy and in some parts accessible by one car only but that is the price you pay for a stunning view!

If you can, bring food and drink items with you as there are no shops within walking distance - you have to drive 5kms to the nearest town to get to the supermarkets and liquor stores.

A valorar muy positivamente: la ayuda desinteresada de los propietarios del establecimiento para resolver la vuelta anticipada.

Ninguno

Posiblemente haya alojamientos en la Toscana similares o mejores. Pero Borgo Sicelle, además de un sitio para disfrutarlo por sí mismo y el entorno, destacaría la ayuda prestada por Franco y su familia en un momento muy complicado.

Lovely location surrounded by vinyards and great views. Franco and Silvia are very pleasant and gave us lots of advice on places to visit, where to park etc.

We have nothing negative to say.

We wanted peaceful accommodation in a tradition old building in the heart of the Tuscan countryside and this was perfect. If you want restaurants and shops within walking distance or something a bit livelier, it's not for you.

Peaceful area, beautiful view, great swimming pool, centrally located, supportive owner and family

Almost all restaurants in the neighbourhood are fantastic: Alla Piazza, Panzano, San Donato in Poggio, Rignana, Pietracupa, Lucarelli, Volpaia. Another nice experience is to drive (or to cycle...) from Borgo Sicelle direction Panzano, halfway go to Lucarelli direction Radda in Chianti, Gaiole in Chianti (cycle tour l'Eroica in September) etc. Don't forget to visit Volpaia, very small village, but great visiting it.

Gîtes très bien équipés ,frais et spacieux très très propres . très belle piscine donnant sur le point de vue de rêve et aménagement extérieurs conçus pour les vacanciers: barbecues, jeux pour enfants, transats de piscines et tables....Idéalement situé entre Sienne , Florence et San Giminiano. Paysages de cartes postales et villages environnants accueillants et pittoresques. Gites situés à l'écart de village, très calme .Belle petite église romane à 2 pas pour balade le soir.

Attention la route d'accès est assez endommagée mais reste tout à fait praticable!!

le petit gite avec terrasse donnant sur la piscine et le panorama est à réserver car très convoité. Voilà une adresse que nous conseillons vivement à tout amateur de séjour en Toscane authentique et amateur d'art renaissance , étrusque et médiéval.

“In borgo Sicelle we felt at home”

10 Read the complete review

We enjoyed Borgo sicelle, not only because of the facility scenery and wonderfull area, but primarily thanks to Sylvia and Franco. They are the model for the perfect hosts, almost all day round available, responsive, assistive, pleasant, endless patience with all lodgers, what else can one expect. We used almost everything in the facility and found everything handy and usefull. We have prepared breakfast and dinner almost every day including barbecue and found everything needed. For instance the griller had the necessary tooling, cleaning materials, illumination switch and even a blower for the charcoal swift burning.

I would not call it a negative aspects, but improvement opportunities: 1. Install Wifi in every apartement, 2. Connect the shower head to a hose to ease showering. Now there is a fixed shower head.

Except for travelling around in the close vicinity several tips: Need to bring/buy bathing materials such as soap, shampoo etc and very important anti mosquito accessories. We dined at Le Torre in Castellina old town center and really enjoyed the food and service, and the price was very reasonable. Besides the well known attractions we visited Brolio Castle and Ricassoli winery and took the guided tour package. It worth it, and it is preferable to book in advance. We do advice to arrive early (0900-0930 latest) to Siena and San Gimignano, where you will find parking spots without roaming around for hours. As for Florence the easiest and fastest way is to park in Scandicci near the COOP and to take T1 Tramvia in Nenni Toregalli stop. Frenquency is every 3-5 minutes and you are in Florence central station in 15 minutes. Ticket price is 1.20Euro a trip. If you love the markets go to a market day in the villages and do not miss the roofed market in Florence.

It's a very quiet location, but still very central for interesting sites for wine tasting, historical cities etc. There was a very informal and relax atmosphere. Liked the friendly attitude of the owners Silvia and Franco. They were not very prominently present (which is good), but always ready to give advises, help with the BBQ (for example making a very nice bistecca!), etc. We had a very nice time, and I really recommend Borgo Sicelle to everybody wanting a stay in the country side, enjoying wine and food, historical sites etc.

Not really. Maybe if you have the apartement on the ground floor, realise that if you have noise neighbours above you. You can hear them walking around. But that did not impact our positive overall experience since only one night we had such a neighbours. But don't get discouraged by this, because it's really nice at Borgo Sicelle. I just want to do honest reviews, so I must mention this, otherwise my positive comments mean nothing.

There is a small winery 1 km from Borgo Sicella, always available for tasting. Nice medieval cities around. I nice experience is to go for a lunch or dinner in very small villages, away from the standard tourist locations.

The staff is really wonderful. They make you feel at home, are extremely helpfull, friendly and knowledgeable about the surroundings. They where happy to help us plan some of our trips in the surrounding area. The location is quit and remote (with only a winebar across the street, see friendly advice) but within minutes you are in San Donato or on the chianti route. The place itself has a lot of facilities, wonderful swimmingpool with amazing view. The room was clean, well equiped and quit large (and we had the smallest one).

Nothing...well, maybe they are too modest about there great place :-)

Across the streat is a small winebar with excellent Italian food for reasonable prices and a wonderful staff. Just before San Donato (3 km drive I think) there is a community pizza/pasta place in a big tent (they raise money for the local soccer team). Doesn't sound fancy (and it isn't) but we had the best pizza's ever for very low prices. Make sure you visit this place and get a feel for the local live.

Nice spot and near a lovely restaurant. Saw 3 wild boar!! Pool area and games room were nice for families with small children.

Uncomfortable, impersonal living space - Ok for a family with small children but virtually no space for a family of four virtual adults to relax - We had no choice but to go out!! Glad we only stayed one night. Wouldn't recommend it. Sunbeds around the pool were plastic and uncomfortable. It didn't have a friendly community vibe.Everyone kept themselves to themselves - ODD!

If this is more than just a stop over/base don't expect any luxury or food products! Stangest AGRITURISMO i've stayed in - No wine, Olives or other products. The pool area and games room were nice for small children and the views were fab but the whole place was impersonal, dull and uninspiring, considering the setting. I LOVE TUSCANY THOUGH.

Comment by the Owner

Comment by the Owner Dear Guest, we are mortified, that you didn’t enjoy your stay at Borgo Sicelle, booking one night in our accommodations is not was enough to appreciate it and not enough to establish a friendly relationship with the other guests and the owners. “Borgo Sicelle is a good place where to relax”, has confirmed, not only, by the last three reviews ( 1- Quiet; woke up to roosters off in the distance. Owners had the perfect balance of giving privacy and being available for any questions and helpful suggestions. 2- Excellent accommodation with very helpful and friendly owners. 3- beautiful surroundings, relaxed atmosphere, a great place to spend some our honeymoon ), but also for the other 150 customers, who always sent positive reviews . Usually, we have customers who have been with us an average stay of 3/5 nights (obviously with them is more simple to establish a friendly relationship) among which there are some, from all over the world, who come back to us every year .. this is our “best review”. The three room apartment you stayed in is of 70 sqm and is suitable for 4 persons, it has a kitchen with satellite TV, 2 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. There is also a private space outside with a table, chairs and a sun umbrella . With these characteristics the apartment should be suitable then for both families with small children and groups of only adults, we do also have to mention that the apartment is recognized and classified for people in wheelchairs. The apartments have a simple decor; the game room has both games for small children and tennis table and a football table for teens and adults; sunbeds are in plastic but we provide one or more mats for each one of them. We are sorry if we didn’t offer you what you expected from us. Maybe we have a different concept of ''Tuscany'' as we think that the simple things are what makes the ''real Tuscan style'' as well as the beauty of nature and friendship and cordiality between people. Sorry again ;-) Franco and Silvia

10 Read the complete review

Located only 30 minutes from Siena and 40 from Florence via the "free" motorway with local supermarkets and villages (San Gimignano, Poggibonsi)within a few minutes - Great! Above average accommodation overlooking the valley and vineyards with a wonderful pool and facilities - Great! Two wonderful hosts in Franco and Sylvia who are full of local advice and assistance whenever required. The group pizza night was very special and unfortunately our last night there - Fabulous!!

A slight negative is that the drive from the "free" motorway is only about 7 minutes long but it seems to take longer due to the narrow winding road. Be prepared for it, persevere it is well worth it!!

Take the time to visit the local villages as well as the more popular sites. When you go to Florence, park in the Piazza Michaelangelo - its free with no time restriction. You can bus to the railway station from there (about 1hour) or walk down to the Ponte Vecchio in about 20 minutes. Siena on a Sunday is very quiet as the shops are closed, but it also means less tourist activity. Enjoy your stay.

View from the pool as beautiful as any in Tuscanny. The owners, Franco and Silvia, are so gracious and helpful in every possible regard. They go beyond the beyond to make your stay the greatest possible pleasure. Washing machine, drying racks, iron, etc a must for us. Convient secured free parking. Lovely guests stay there, most from Europe. Many are regulars, as we intend to be!

We extended our stay to 20 days in June when we saw the beauty.The weather was glorious until the last 4 days, when the heat wave struck Italy. There is no air conditioning, so even with paddle fans and/or floor fans, it was a bit hot for us. The free WiFi was on a back patio, not in each apartment, but not a problem.

Book earily, as they are well known and many guests return year after year. When we return, we will try for the cooler weather in May and early June, as we live in Florida and have enough hot weather at home.

Our major contact was with Sylvia who always went our of her way to accomodate us in every way. She informed us of recommendations for visits to the local and more distance must sees. We drove a rental car and that made our trip very easy.The hospitality of sharing a bottle of HOME wine and Olive Oil as a gift from Sylvia and Franco was extremely thoughtful and an enjoyable experience.

“Picturesque accommodations in the heart of Tuscany”

10 Read the complete review

This was a great base for our explorations of the Chianti area of Tuscany. Franco was very accommodating, giving us recommendations for day trips before and during our stay. It was also very nice to have access to the two washing machines - they weren't too difficult to figure out. It was also surprisingly quiet considering there were other guests on the property.

Coming from California I was expecting a bit more in terms of wine tasting in this region and wish I would have done more research on this. Also, beware of the safety cameras all around Chianti while driving. It helps to have GPS so you know when you are approaching one.

There is wi-fi if you are so inclined during your stay. You may need to be in the courtyard near the office to get a signal but it is free nonetheless. Bring your own washing detergent. There is some there but it is powder (I'm used to using liquid). You definitely need a car in this area and I would highly recommend a small one - there is a reason so many people drive small cars in Italy! The roads are very windy but the views well worth it!!! The restaurant just down the road (not the one across the street but if you turn left onto the main road) is very good but a little pricey.

loved grocery shopping in the nearby town - seven little shops to get all of the items on our meal plan list

The kitchen could have had more appliances and serving dishes as we liked cooking in at least once a day either breakfast or supper.

One of my very favorite towns in all of Tuscany was Castellina in Chianti which is not exactly where the structure is located, so don't miss the village and the sculptures and art shops in the actual town!

The owners were very helpful with maps, directions, etc. The views and relaxing on the patio out by the pool was so nice. We enjoyed being able to cook some meals and get to so many hill towns from our location.

The kids wished we had internet in the apartment.

We enjoyed Panzanno so much we went there twice. Very few tourists and a lovely church with wonderful views from the restaurant right by the church. The people in San Donato were very helpful also with advice etc. Go to San Gimignano late and stay into the evening when all the day trippers leave and the town is so pretty.

This place is perfectly located for touring Toscana. We had our best night sleep in Italy at this property, located alone on a top of a hill, offering wonderful views on wine and olive cultures. We used our kitchenette every day, well equipped with everything you need. Beautiful pool with plenty of space for all guests to relax in a private space. Best deal for the buck in our entire stay in Italy. We will come back for sure !

The only negative point: we should have stayed a week, instead of two nights only.

we had cold rainy weather for a few days

there were several direct sale olive and wine vinyards just down the road we enjoyed meeting Renzo a very local vintner and had a wonderful tasting. Bring your own empty bottles for the local wine only 2 euros a bottle. The wine at the local gas station was also among the best Chianti Classico with the rooster we had for only 4 euros which was produced at a local monastery

This accommodation was lovely and the owners were very kind. In fact, the house was even nicer in person than it seemed on the website. There was a pool, laundry, ping-pong table and small "library". We woke up to lovely panoramic views of Tuscany each morning. It is set in the heart of the Tuscan countryside near many vineyards.

I have nothing negative to say except that wifi would've been a plus. The owners were kind enough to let us use their computer though.

Be sure to visit Francesca's wine and cheese shop on the road toward Montalcino. She is wonderful! I believe the name of it is Enoteca 750ml.

Jedzenie w gospodzie obok po prostu fantastyczne - menu ustalane z właścicielem. Szczególnie polecam niedzielny wieczór (ciężko się załapać, ale atmosfera niepowtarzalna!).

Włosi chyba nie kochają zbytnio internetu - praktycznie nie miałem dostępu (nawet w hotelu w którym wcześniej się zatrzymałem) - ale w tych okolicznościach to nie problem, przynajmniej dla mnie.

Warto pojeździć takze po mniej znanych zakątkach Toskanii - w nas najmilsze wspomnienia pozostały po takich miejscach jak Bolgheri, Abbazia di Sant' Antimo, Volterra, Massa Maritima ......

9.6 Read the complete review

The Sunday night pizza party offered by our host couple Silvia and Franco was a wonderful way to settle in and become acquainted with the other guests -- among them Dutch and Irish families with young children and an older Italian couple who'd been coming there for years.

It's a hill top site, there are several levels, some stairs are steep and it can be challenging for the mobility-impaired.

It's a lovely spot to relax on the terrace or swimming pool and enjoy the vistas in Tuscan sunshine and moon light, but it's also a convenient base for visiting Tuscany. It's just a few minutes from the Florence/Siena autostrada. Be sure to ask Silvia for local markets and attractions.

Comment by the Owner Hello thank you for your review but there is a mistake about parts of this: 1-''Unfortunately, the owners do not speak any English. The son who lives in Rome and does speak English did all the correspondence (internet) for his father'' The owner, Franco, lives at Borgo Sicelle with his family (wife-Silvia- and 2 daughters), they speak english. 2-''The site is very difficult to find so the owner meets you in town to lead you home. Since he doesn\\\'t speak English and I did not have a cell phone to contact him, we had a problem connecting '' He didn't meet you in town to lead our home.When you arrived Silvia met you at Borgo Sicelle and showed you the apartment, you told her about your companion ill in Arezzo hospital and Silvia told you the best directions for Arezzo 3-''I mentioned to the son that doing the deposit by wire is difficult and expensive from the states. They would be better off using paypal''. On the reservation we requested the payment by credit card and no by wire. We used credit card details for guarantee only and you paied total price when you left. Regards. Franco e Silvia Borgo Sicelle

Endroit calme, bien entretenu, avec une vue superbe, notamment de la piscine plutôt agréable. Appartement très propre et plutôt confortable. Propriétaires sympathiques, parlant anglais et un peu français, restant disponibles malgré un travail important. Emplacement géographique idéal au sein même du chianti, tout proche de Florence et Sienne

Appartement comportant 2 chambres spacieuses mais pas de salon, au 1er étage sans terrasse ni balcon ce qui reduit la possibilité de manger facilement à l'exterieur (mais c'est quand même possible au rez de chaussé). Cuisine propre mais assez petite manquant un peu d\\\'aménagement (pas de four ni de cafetière électrique, frigo un peu petit). Site éloigné du village (5 kms) obligeant à prendre son véhicule pour faire la moindre provision.

Visitez à proximité Florence, Sienne et San-Gimignano mais aussi tous les petits villages autour de Castellina in Chianti 45(Castellina in chianti, Rada in chianti, Greve in chianti, etc.... ). Demandez aux propriétaires qui seront de bon conseil sur les sites à visiter et pourront vous reserver des places pour les musées, ce qui évite de faire des queues interminables notamment à Florence. N'hesitez pas à aller dans la région de Pise et lucca, distantes d'environ 100 kms mais qui méritent vraiment le voyage. Par ailleurs, au niveau loisir, si vous aimez le vélo de montagne ou la randonnée, vous serez heureux en Toscane, ça monte et ça descend tout le temps dans des paysages magnifiques!

Courtyard setting. Location - lovely views over the valley, especially at sunset. Well placed for local hilltop villages. Friendly & family run. The pool deck is immaculately clean and very welcome on hot sunny days.

Ceiling fans instead of a/c which sometimes barely kept the temperature bearable. Far away from the nearest village to make a car a necessity (Which can also be a good thing)

Allow a full day for visiting Florence, Siena and St. Gimignano. Travel by car into central Florence not recommended and park and ride signs can be a little haphazard - we never did actually find it!

Peaceful beautiful surroundings, very central in Chianti - but you need a car.

The restaurants in the nearby village were overpriced I thought.

If you are interested in WW2 history, this area is full of it but the locals seem to know nothing at all about what happened here 65 years go. if you are interested, you can buy my book which is about to be published. "Red Tabs: Life and death in the 6th South African Armoured Division, 1943 -45".

Everything -- comfortable, affordable, and run by very gracious hosts.

I honestly cannot think of a single thing.

Make sure to stop at some of the private homes advertising 'direct sale' of oil and wine on the way to the house. Also, in the summer months, there is a wonderful open-air pizzeria in San Donato (which you will pass on your way to the house).

This property was a wonderful location to rest, to enjoy the surrounding countryside, to use as a jumping off point for many other places nearby. Florence, Siena, San Gimignagno were all just a short drive away.

If you wish to prepare your own meals, especially breakfast, be advised that the closest grocery store is several miles (or kilometers) away.

The drive from San Donato to this place may look like you are heading into oblivion, but it is well worth the trip. Franco, the owner, graciously shared information about the surrounding countryside and is wonderfully pleasant.

The land lord and his wife were most accommodating. They were helpful with directions, market days and what to see. They even set up a private tour to their uncle\'s winery and estate which was one of the highlights of our trip.

Having a car is a must for staying at $NomeStruttura. There is no public transportation near by. I would recommend a stay here for anyone who loves the quiet country side.
