Wonderful Gem in Montalcino
We had a wonderful week at Podere Poggiarello. Camilla was a loverly and very helpful host. The location of the villa was great, 20 min drive from the lovely town of Montalcino. The villa amenities were good, we expecially loved the terrace and the pool. What an amazing view! Thanks again for a fabulous experience.

Beautiful Views
Beautiful sweeping hilltop views from this charming villa for sunrise and sunset. We enjoyed the full kitchen and option to cook in and enjoy the pergola and pool! If you stay here be sure to pin your location as it’s easy for GPS to get confused and the Villa is about 15 minutes from the town of Montalcino.

Stunning stay in paradise
Stunning stay in a gorgeous, peaceful, one-in-lifetime setting. The private pool and surrounding views were unmatched, and the cottage is perfectly appointed, well supplied, tastefully decorated, cozy, and relaxing. The property manager went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed, and her recommendations were top-notch. We will most certainly be back. You can’t miss a stay at this luxury property on your next visit to the Montalcino/Montepulciano area!

Perfect Family Landing Pad
We stayed here for 9 days with our family including three children, ages 6, 3, and 1.5, and it was perfect. We had just enough room to spread out and the kids adored the patio and pool. My husband and I took in the views after bedtime while enjoying a last glass of wine by the pool. The house had everything we needed and Camilla went above and beyond as our host. We saw so much of Tuscany, but the views from the house were some of the best. What a magical spot!!

Shabby Chic
I did not want to leave. Cheerful, stylish color pallet & decor. Good internet. Postcard views. Peaceful. Relaxing. Lovely outside terrace & pool. The quibbles-no television, no coffee machine, no microwave. Sofa & coffee table are more shabby than chic. Stains. Need replacing.

One word: perfect
The house has everything a family needs. We enjoyed the rest and silence, the wonderful pool, the nature, and the beautiful city Montalcino. We had very easy communication with Camilla and could ask her everything and had response very quick. It was nice to meet her when she and her husband arrived for the weekend in their own house. We will come back, that's for sure!

Great rustic farmhouse with amazing pool and views
This is an amazing property in the middle of Barolo wine country. About 15 minutes away from Montalcino along winding country roads, you are really away from it all. Set on the top of a hill, it has unparalleled views in 3 directions with amazing sunsets to enjoy from the deck while enjoying dinner. The pool is outstanding and a great refresh while under a hot Tuscan sun. I would consider the house itself rustic chic, styled in a farmhouse vibe, but was well apportioned and perhaps most importantly had fairly well functioning air conditioning. Working with Camilla was great and she was really helpful in addressing a couple of very minor issues. Overall it's a great place to get away from the crowds of the Italian summer. Plus, Montalcino is a charming town that has some great restaurants and was very chill during the week (we left on a Saturday and it seemed to be picking up a little). One minor note, as you're pretty far in the country, there were perhaps more bugs than our teenage daughters (city kids) would have preferred, but it wasn't too bad.

Romantic Country House with Beautiful Views
We had a lovely time at this secluded home at the top of a hill. Very scenic and peaceful. It was extremely restful staying at the house and we did a day trip to Sienna, about an hour drive. The nearby small town of Montalcino had some nice shops and restaurants and an interesting archeological museum, but did involve a 15-min drive on some very mountainous roads with many sharp turns. We did venture into town several times, including grocery store runs. Be sure to check the hours, as the grocery store is only open some afternoons.

True Tuscany
Very beautiful and quiet location. The surrounding landscape and views are stunning. Our group of four adults had plenty of room in house and outside patio. The pool with surrounding olive groove was so relaxing. Short drive to many Vineyards and Montalcino. Would very much recommend this anyone looking for a relaxing Tuscan visit.

We loved Il Poggiarello
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s a very reasonable drive to Montalcino - about 20 minutes - with similar drives to great wineries large and small. We definitely took advantage of the food and wine the area offers, both at restaurants and with some fabulous local steaks grilled on the poolside BBQ. Whether you plan on spending the day lounging by the pool and enjoying the beautiful scenery or exploring the area, Il Poggiarello is a wonderful place to stay.

Dream holiday in Montalcino
My wife and I and our kids stayed for 2 weeks at Il Poggiarello in Montalcino. The location of the house was on top of the hill creating an outrageous 360 degrees view of the valley. The house boasted airconditioned bedrooms, which is perfect during Summer time Tuscan temperatures, specially at night. The terraces (with BBQ) and swimming pool provided all we needed, to make our stay perfect. And last, but not least, the owner shared some great suggestions with us for sight seeing and restaurants. The latter making us feel very much at home with the people in region greeting us as tourists at the highest level of hospitality one can wish. My suggestion: go there and find iout yourself!

Lovely time in Tuscany!
The villa was a great location for us! It was close enough for us to explore other Tuscan towns with our car rental, but secluded enough for us to enjoy the countryside and VIEWS! Camilla was responsive to feedback and questions, and her book of recommendations was appreciated. We cooked at the villa with ease, however, sharp knives would be the only recommendation to add to the kitchen. The pool was lovely and refreshing. We enjoyed our time immensely. I would also like to strongly recommend Locandra Demetra Cooking School and restaurant in Montalcino! We enjoyed our cooking class so much, that we returned two days later for the chef's dinner tasting menu. One of the best meals I have ever had!

Paradise Found
This home exceeded our expectations. Everything about it was perfect and was so comfortable. It was beautiful inside and the views of the cypress and olive trees and the many vineyards was breathtaking. We would come back after viewing fabulous medieval villages, shopping at farmer’s markets and having amazing lunches and jump in the pool. Romeo, the caretaker and Camilla, the owner were very responsive and met all our needs. We were saddened to leave after 2 weeks but will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Mrs Camilla

Host profile image
My name is Camilla and I live in Rome after many years spent abroad. I am a manager and a mother so I am always running around ... but I love my country house in Montalcino. It is my escape from the hectic life and its magic, peace and beauty recharges me from everyday life!

Why they chose this property

I saw the property and I simply fell in love with it amd I decided that it had to be my buen retiro. Only those who have lived it can understand its magic. Having travelled a lot in my life, I have seen many amazing places, but for me Il Poggiarello is the most amazing.

What makes this property unique

The position is unique. Il Poggiarello is on the top a hill and the view you can get from every angle is breathless. The house is cozy, warm, elegant but not pretentious, charming and modern at the same time. Most importantly, you will feel that you are in a real home, no other guests around you, just you, your family and friends..
