Simple and yet you have everything you need.
Being there puts you in s state of total relaxation. The pool gives you the heavenly freshness you need on hot summer days. If you don’t feel like cooking or going out, the hostess prepares you delicious, fresh dinner.
We had the best experience during our 7 night stay at La Palazzina! Our apartment was super charming. The area is very peaceful with great views. A perfect location for visiting the hill towns of Tuscany. Eloise and her husband were kind and had helpful advice for some of our excursions.
My husband and I travelled to Italy for our honeymoon and stayed 4 days at La Palazzina. The property and apartment are so beautiful and it’s tucked away in a quiet little part of Tuscany that’s easily accessible by car. We made day trips to San Gimignano, Panzano, Montalcino and Montepulciano and overall had the most amazing time. You won’t regret your stay here!

A great place to stay in Tuscany
The suite was very comfortable with air con in the bedroom which was a must in the hot evenings. The whole family were a delight and Eloise was always on hand to help out with any advice. The pool area is fabulous but beware of the bugs. A great place to stay for Siena and other Tuscan favourites. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.
Eloise and her family were the most gracious hosts, sharing their property (freedom to explore and relax wherever we wanted) and time and cooking with us. We had a delicious home-cooked meal with ingredients from the farm, and got to taste their homemade olive oil, wine, salami, and more, and it was fantastic. The space itself was lovely and comfortable and had everything we needed. This was hands-down one of our favorite parts of our trip. The cat even hung out with us while we cooked! Dont hesitate, book this. Be aware you will greatly benefit from having a car while you are here though so you can explore!

Love it
Just a quick email to thank you for having us to stay in "Suite". We had a lovely time and wished we could have stayed longer. Next time we are in Tuscany, we will! La Palazzina is delightful, and very restful.
Thank you, also, for letting us use the pool after we had left our room. We left later than planned originally, as our flight leaves later than I originally thought.
We left the towels from our room behind the door in the bathroom near the pool, and a book from our room on the table nearby. Oh, and we left our Lonely Planet book of Italy in our room, for the next travelers. I hope they have as much fun in Italy as we have!
We shall return.
Cheers, and thanks,
Cathy and Andrew Branson
We had a gorgeous 5 night stay in the ‘suite indipendant’which was …
Clean
Loads of room.
Cool (air conditioning upstairs and a fan in kitchen)
Lovely bathroom
Hot shower.
The gardens and pool were lovely, very clean and lots of choice and room to eat outside.
The host and her family (and gorgeous dog and cat) were lovely and On hand if need be for advice or help).
We could not fault the place for the money spent.
Had it be my business only thing I would change is to supply a little more than basic utensils for the kitchen.
The place sleeps 4.
We like to cook some days whilst on holiday so if you are planning to do the same I’ve just put a few little tips below that some may find useful.
No Sharp knife (chopping and bread knife)
My husband always brings his own (he’s the chef 😂) - we would have had to buy had he not as the utensils and knife supplied were shocking) you need a knife to cook!
There are glasses .. but only tiny tiny ones and 2 wine glasses (so if you want a beer or g&t there’s no glasses for those)
It’s not a pool holiday as you are there to see beautiful Tuscany but we did have a day chilling by pool.
There are no cushions on sunbeds apart from 3. So uncomfortable for more than an hour.
And felt sooooo uneasy about taking glass to the pool area … so will always be packing plastic from now on.
That’s it!
We had a fab 5 days … loved it xx
It is a wonderful accomodation, if you a looking for a quite place with a perfect hostess. The pool is beatifully situated, the atmosphere of the place is fantastic, the food excellent and we had a very nice stay.
Een mooie Agriturismo in een meer dan prachtige omgeving, geografisch gezien ook praktisch en centraal gelegen tussen allerlei mooie steden en landschappen. Een hartelijk welkom en behulpzame eigenaren. Maken zelf van alles, waaronder geweldige wijn voor een prima prijs. Inrichting vrij basis maar sfeervol en oke, open haard met gratis hout was heerlijk (en nodig in okt!), zwembad ook top. Zeker een aanrader, wel goed om te weten dat het appt geen 'eigen buiten' (privé terras) heeft, maar wel genoeg plekjes om te kunnen zitten. Auto noodzakelijk (dbz rest 3 km, supertje 5). Wij kijken terug op een heerlijk verblijf.
Tips: een flesje water en wat thee/koffie/kleine snacks bij ontvangst/aankomst, vooral als je aankomt na sluiting van winkels. Schoonmaak op hoogte heeft wat aandacht nodig (lampjes boven de spiegels en spinnenrag bijvoorbeeld), verder was het keurig. Nieuwe handdoeken aanschaffen, wel schoon maar beetje sleets.
If you are considering staying in the Siena region look no further. This is where you need to stay. Eloise and her family are just lovely. the grounds are amazing. Home cooked meals every day, dips in the pool, beautiful sunsets, everything you could ask for is here. This was my first time staying at an Agritourismo. I am so glad I found La Palazzina. It was like being a a scene from a movie, like Under the Tuscan Sun or Stealing Beauty. Eloise is the best host ever. All the food is grown by her family or locally purchased. Everything was fresh. I cannot wait to go back again! Thank you for your hospitality.

Fantastic farm house/agriturismo hotel in Tuscany
The hostess family invites you to a fantastic stay at countryside Tuscany. They are very friendly and helpful in a lovely and quiet perfect Tuscany set. They also offer dinner served at your table and it was great and is highly recommended.

Authentic Tuscany
My husband and I spent five wonderful days at La Palazzina at the end of September 2016. We lodged in the Suite Independante which is on two levels. The ground flour houses the kitchen/living area while the upstairs has the bedroom with a very comfortable canopy bed and a large bathroom with soaking tub and separate shower. The photos on VRBO reflect the property accurately. The accommodations are perfect. Our hosts, Eloise and Alessio, run the agriturismo. They grow grapes and make wine, they grow olive trees from which they make olive oil (sadly, we left before tasting it or taking some home with us), raise animals and have a vegetable garden. Yet, despite their very busy lives, they were always available to us when we needed them. We loved lounging by and swimming in the infinity pool where the nearby lavender bushes inebriated us with their perfume. Murlo is away from the tourist crowds but close enough to enjoy the beauty of Tuscany. 30 minutes to Siena, an hour to Chianti, 1.5 hours to Florence, you can take a day trip or stay close to home. We did both. We cooked meals in the Suite, took our plates and glasses of wine outside to take in the beautiful view. We also enjoyed very good meals at Bosco della Spina and at Il Libridinoso very close by. We would definitely return to La Palazzina.

Idyllic Holiday
Had a wonderful 9 night stay at Eloise & Alessio's beautiful property. Our apartment, Palazinna was a very good size and typically rustic Italian which was just perfect for us. The pool area was fabulous and the owners were on hand to point us in the right direction for shopping, restaurants etc. Alessio's Prosecco was excellent and very moreish. Not too far from Sienna which is a lovely city and there are beautiful hilltop villages within a short drive. Scenery is just stunning and we didn't want to leave. We will definitely return and would recommend a stay here as it is just so relaxing.

Wonderful!
Such a lovely place, and Eloise was extremely helpful and friendly. We rented an apartment and had 4 people staying there. The surrounding area is beautiful and close to many of the villages. Didn't use the pool as the weather wasn't warm enough but we did lounge around it. The beds were very firm but I think that is normal for Italy, everywhere we went they were firm. One thing that was unexpected was the lack of supplies, we had to buy our own dish soap and things like oil, salt and pepper, etc, which I have never had to do with a vacation rental before. Make sure you buy some of Eloise's olive oil, I only purchase one jar and once I got home wished I had more.

un posto splendido ,molto pulito
Abbiamo passato delle bellissime vacanze, il posto è veramente bello ,più bello che nelle foto.Mi ha colpito molto la pulizia degli appartamenti e della piscina, tutto è ordinato e l'atmosfera è piacevole.
I proprietari sono molto cordiali , sempre molto disponibili si vede che amano fare sentire i clienti a proprio agio.
Mi ha colpito il giardino e sopratutto la posizione, è unica!
Inoltre e comodissimo per visitare le città più importanti e per fare la spesa e il ristorante e tutto vicino.
Raccomandiamo questo posto a tutti.
Grazie Alessio e Eloise
