We absolutely loved the location.

Posted Apr 19, 2015

Pros: The location was great and the views were magnificent from outdoors. A soccer pitch kept our son entertained.

Cons: The dogs next door were a nuisance and they were annoying especially at night time. I needed sleeping pills as I was awoken each night by barking.

Location: Sienna is beautiful and there is much to see and do.

We loved this region and we enjoying visiting the beautiful city of Sienna. So much to see and do. A clean, beautiful town and the locals should be proud. The surrounding country side is so pretty and I could pack up and move to this beautiful part of Italy. It is an area that should be visited. The local food produce is delicious and we enjoyed visiting the cafes in Sienna. We relied on buses as we did not have a car. I believe a car is essential.

agriturismo near Siena

Great location for this picturesque farmstay. Great views of the surrounging hills. Good restaurant, but served typical Italian and not Tuscan specialties. Price was reasonable, also because there was a small kitchen in the apartment for breakfast and some meals. The kitchen was not furnished though and we had to buy even the basics like salt, sugar and oil. Also, our rooms were seperate from the pool and main building and the interior of the apartment was quite rustic and could have been decorated with a bit more care. I would return here for the location and good views, but ask for a different apartment.

Rustic self-catering at a fantastic site in Tuscany

Posted Aug 3, 2010

La Grotta is a fantastic site with large grounds including vineyard and olive groves. There are lots of lawned areas with outdoor seating and a good sized pool. A barbecue is also available. It is situated about 5 miles from Siena. There is a bus to Siena running about hourly - cheap - but you have to buy tickets in advance. My first taste of Italian self-catering. The appartment had rustic charm, but was basic by British/French self-catering standards. The toilet/shower was accessed through one of the two bedrooms. No easy chairs at all so when it got dark/cold outside you had to sit on a wooden bench or your bed !! Owner was very helpful with local advice on places to visit. He even went to get us bus tickets when we were stranded due to a car hire problem. Auto Europa let us down badly (not booked through Expedia !!) and we had to go by bus to Firenze for a replacement car only to find that they didn't have one. A good place to relax by the pool/in the grounds but a good centre for visiting Siena and Tuscan hill-top towns. Owner provides breakfast (5 Euro) and an evening Tuscan meal (18 Euro) but we did not use this service.

Netter Agriturismo nahe Siena

Posted Jun 5, 2017

Pros: Sehr günstige Lage nahe Siena, großzügige Apparments, gute Aussicht in die Natur.

Ein paar Hundert Meter abseits der Straße nach Siena liegt auf einem kleinen Hügel dieser Agriturismo mit seinen farblich sehr unterschiedlich gestalteten Appartments. Die Gastgeber sind sehr zuvorkommend.
