Relaxed in every way.

5 Posted on 09 / 15 / 2012

We stayed here for three nights in September 2012, towards the end of a two week visit to Italy. Already excited about having vegan food on tap after surviving on hard bread and jam for many previous breakfasts and Marinara pizza for dinner, we were in for even more of a surprise. The location is perfect and a feeling of relaxation comes over you as soon as you get out of the car. Walking from the car-park up the garden towards the accommodation is a delight to the senses. The hosts are wonderful. They are not just helpful but very warm and welcoming too. We stayed in the B&B plus there are also self-catering apartments which look great as well. Our room (suite) was gorgeous. For breakfast we had a choice of home-baked breads (baked by Paul one-half of the partnership), preserves, soya-yoghurt, fresh fruit etc. The three course evening meal, which is available if you request it the day before, was cooked by Jon who is vegan and the other half of the partnership. Jon and Paul were so kind and helpful and certainly made the stay more of a pleasure than we had hoped it would be. We will return just as soon as opportunity allows.

Pros: Vegan food., Jon and Paul, the hosts., The accommodation.

Fantastic Vegan Holiday in Tuscany!

We stayed at this gorgeous B&B this August 2012. The setting is beautiful, surrounded by wooded hills full of wildlife, such as lizards, wild boar and porcupines! and a loely pool in the garden for those hot afternoons. The accomodation was good and clean. Well stocked honesty bar was useful. Paul and Jonathon the proprietors were most friendly and helpful. They looked after us, showing us walks and places to visit and most importantly where to find good vegan food! They even phoned ahead to one local pizza restaurant to make sure we got looked after as our Italian is not too good!! Evening meals were available and had a gorgeous 3 course vegan meal with wine, including cheesecake for desert. Jonathon is vegan himself - and a great cook. Breakfast was eaten in the shade of the garden and consisted of wholesome muesli, rolls and vegan pastries with fresh juice and proper fresh italian coffee mmmm!
We would highly recommend staying here and will definately return when we can. Thanks Paul and Jonathon for a great holiday x

Pros: Vegan Friendly Service, Great Vegan Food, Fantastic Setting
Cons: Had to come home!
