Reviews from Borgo La Poggiarina

We visited, for the third time, this place and had yet again a wonderful vacation. La Poggiarina is a peaceful place, beautifully located in the Tuscan hills.
The house is old - but well decorated, nice and clean. We have on purpose chosen either the house Salvia or Rosmarino, when we've been there, to get the big private garden.

Montegonzi as a holiday destination

The town is very small, but lovely with the small grocery store and a osteria. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the town.

Borgo La Poggiarina is a perfect place, if you want a week of pure relaxation. The location requires you to have access to a car, if you wish to see the surrounding area.
The home was equipped for 4 people and met our expectations. One obvious thing to miss, however, is an air condition, when the temperature reaches over 30 degrees. Even though an extra ventilator can be rented at the reception, it is still VERY warm at night.
Fine options for both breakfast and dinner at the place's own restaurant, or you can buy freshly baked bread for the breakfast, if you wish to do that instead.
The staff in the reception are very kind and helpful.

Recommendations for future guests

There are many vineyards up along the road to Borgo La Poggiarina, and visiting is recommendable.
If you like biking, we can clearly recommend brining a bike. The roads around the holiday homes are fine, narrow, bendy, with steep inclines on around 8%-16%.
If you like horses and riding, we recommend visiting La Forra. It is 10 mins away from La Poggiarina in car, and you can get a guided tour on horseback.
