Podere Spedalone

Wow is an understatement. This was the most spectacular part of our entire Italy trip. From the moment we arrived we felt very welcomed. The sprawling property is spectacular to roam around. Lots of space to go for a run. Easy to get to Montepulciano and Pienza. Nice to meet so many other travelers. The room was quaint, beautiful, clean and unique. The beds are very comfortable with lots of pillows and nice linens. Plenty of fresh air and sounds of animals from outside. The breakfast was beyond spectacular. Most beautiful eggs we’ve ever eaten! Pretty pool but we didn’t use it. We opted for the farm table dinner and it was one of the best experiences we had on our trip. The aperitivo experience was just so gorgeous and hospitable - my favourite part! We tasted their olive oil from their property and bought a bottle. We did not do the truffle class or the cooking class, but I wish we had stayed longer so that we could have tried both! We stayed one night but wished we had stayed for 3. My ONLY feedback would be that the showers could be replaced to be more modern. Thank you Tamara, Adela, dinner chef and breakfast chef! ♥️ 🇨🇦

This was a unique, serene and awesome experience. Staying on a Tuscan farm, meeting people from all over the world, swimming in a pool overlooking g the gorgeous mountain vistas. The staff were very friendly. The highlight of our stay was the group dinner, drinks at sunset and eating the meal all together. Mornings breakfast was also a treat with a wide variety of scrumptious food. Our only negative was we did not have a car so we had to pay quite a bit for a taxi to and from the bus and train station. To be fair, the establishment told us renting a car was the best option; we just didn’t want the responsibility and I did not ask the cost of a taxi. Also, be forewarned there is no air conditioning, which we also knew beforehand. It made for a few hot nights in July. The sunsets are stunning.

This was a true highlight of our Italy vacation. Would highly recommend at least the half board option for dinner- it was amazing. AND- also highly recommend the cooking class. This was a true comfortable and cozy stay in the lovely rooms and dreamy Tuscan countryside!!

Tuscany was a dream come true! Podere Spedalone was magnificent. The staff was welcoming and very attentive always with a smile and accomodating. I loved that several ofvtheir staff spoke Spanish. We had the most fabulous dinner there with other guests. The food was delicious. They paid attention to every detail. We would definitely go back. We highly recommend it. It was very close to Pienza 12 min drive and Montepulciano. LOVED IT!!!
