I stayed here in September and absolutely LOVED it. The place itself is so quiet and tranquil, exactly what I wanted. There were some repairs going on but they in no way bothered us as they were being done quietly and at appropriate times when we weren't in our rooms. There was lots to do, and it wasn't much of a drive into Siena. The scenery was stunning and the room was very comfortable and clean. If you want a place to get away from everything, then here's your place. I felt so relaxed when I (reluctantly) came home. The staff were brilliant, really friendly and helpful. They really excelled in going out of their way to help us. Maria was so lovely and welcoming, and Daniel was a great cook who also helped us find a great vineyard to go to in our time of need (when our tour company failed to pick us up). Daniel's sister was great too. The atmosphere was lovely and the nearby towns were wonderful, in particular the little bar/restaurant where you can order absolutely fantastic glasses of wines (reservas and local specialities) for a fraction of the normal price. The food was great and would be cooked according to your requirements if you didn't like something, and they were really helpful at recommending wines. Everything was very reasonably priced. I couldn't go without saying that there were 4 tiny little new-born kittens and a beautiful cat who belonged to the guest house, who made my stay that extra bit more exciting! They were absolutely gorgeous. It was really hard to leave and drag myself back to England. I would definitely go back.

Stayed for a long weekend and staff were very attentive and helpful. We had some issues with heating not working but this was resolved very swifty. The hotel is small and cosy with a few rooms and a dining room where breakfast and dinner is available. The location is a bit remote so you would need a car but the peace and quiet is worth being slightly out of town. Will come back in the summer if possible to see more of the country side in the daytime. Thanks Kim and Natasha

Recently visited Le Valline for a mini-break. This idilic bed and breakfast offers basic accommodation with simple rustic charm. Breakfast was adequate and the rooms clean and spacious. Fantastic location which compliments tranquility with easy access to the busy bustling cities of Siena and Florence. Would recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Tuscan experience. Only disappointment was room with no view!

“Authentic piece of Tuscany but in desperate need of proper management”

This must be one of the most difficult places to rate. Location - beautiful, in a middle of countryside with a stunning driveway up to the resort and gorgeous surroundings. Only 10 mins drive to the centre of Siena and local supermarkets. Only one thing spoils the view and that's a highway running… Több

This must be one of the most difficult places to rate. Location - beautiful, in a middle of countryside with a stunning driveway up to the resort and gorgeous surroundings. Only 10 mins drive to the centre of Siena and local supermarkets. Only one thing spoils the view and that's a highway running through the countryside (which you can hear from the resort) but that's a stupid decision by the government clearly, not a fault of the hotel. Resort - beautiful building with lots of character. The apartment we stayed in (apt Erika) was extremely spacious with some lovely original features such as a stone floor, antique wardrobe and dresser and chunky wooden shutters. The 'new' additions to the apartment are however awful. Bathroom (whilst large) has a nasty tiling, tiny shower, collapsing shelves and toilet which is dirty and splashes you every time you flush it (the water tank is above your head and has no cover). Bedroom - nice overall; bed is quite uncomfortable, there were no extra covers for the cold nights and the two spare pillows (thrown in the wardrobe) had no cover on so we didn't use them. Kitchen is pretty poorly equipped - there is a small fridge (enough if you're not planning to stay for more than a few days) which has never seen a cleaning product in its life; there were no frying pans, no kettle, no wooden spoons etc. There was one pot; 2 mugs and 2 sets of cutlery so if you’re planning to come in a bigger group, you will need to ‘take turns’. There was no washing up liquid or a sponge to clean dishes either. Lounge - the TV wasn't working properly and when it did, there were only Italian channels. (This wasn't a problem, just worth mentioning I think). Above all, the most important thing for me was the cleanliness. The whole apartment is in a DESPERATE need of a thorough clean. I’m not sure what the cleaner did when she came to ‘clean’ the apartment but it most certainly wasn’t to clean, tidy or even wash the 2 glasses we left in the sink. Restaurant - we paid for B&B - Breakfast was nice thought the selection was very limited and did not change during our stay. There was ham, salami and edam cheese; corn flakes, muesli, croissants (these were delicious!) and brown and white bread which was stale. The quality of the bread was particularly disappointing as italian bread (fresh one!) is absolutely delicious!!! Facilities - car park, reception, restaurant, swimming pool (unheated!), outside garden seating area Overall - this is a lovely resort situated in a stunning Tuscany countryside with a real need of someone who can manage this place to the high standard this place deserves. Both Daniel and Bernadette are lovely and good at what they do but they need someone with a good business experience to bring this stunning resort up to a much higher standard.
