Il Pezzatino

The grounds, pool, and Alessandra’s homemade wine were all lovely, and we got to enjoy a wine and olive oil tasting followed by a cooking class. She welcomed my family with open arms even though we arrived much earlier than expected. The Agriturismo was spotless, comfortable, and inviting. Alessandra threw together a fresh risotto for lunch that was amazing. We stayed overnight and slept very comfortably, though we had to leave early for our next stop. I’m already planning to return with my daughter. Tuscany felt just like everything I’d dreamed it would be. Thank you, Alessandra, for a dream come true.

The view was breathtaking, and the agriturismo itself is beautiful, with a nice pool and cute dorms. My friend and I loved the cooking workshop and wine tasting the host arranged for us. Definitely recommend a visit.

The rooms were nicely decorated and the hostess was sweet, but the stay felt like poor value for money. The garden, park, and pool could all be a much better experience with more upkeep. Breakfast was okay, though not worth EUR 12 per person. Our air conditioning didn’t work on the first night, when it was very warm outside, so we got no sleep. We had to argue quite a bit before it was fixed, and weren’t offered any compensation. We only had a light dinner that first night: bread and raw vegetables to start, pasta with tomato sauce, then tiramisu. It tasted good, but at EUR 80 for two, plus EUR 20 for wine, it felt expensive. The following night, a lovely restaurant in town charged EUR 80 for a much more luxurious dinner, including their most expensive main course, pre-dinner drinks, wine, and a digestif.

The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and Miss Alessandra is a wonderful hostess with amazing kitchen skills. Their own wines went really well with the homemade dinner. I enjoyed walking through the vineyard and olive grove, then sitting beneath the latticework by the pool. Beautiful accommodations. This is the only stop I need in Italy.
