That’s Amore! My family and I will never forget the time we had at La Pievuccia for as long as we live. The views are scenic, the wine is unbeatable, the food is authentic and delicious, and the customer service is top tier. Jennifer and Stephen are creating an atmosphere and an experience that is truly one of a kind and makes this destination a trip of a lifetime. Thank you for everything!

I have had the pleasure of visiting La Pievuccia for a second time in a year, and Stephen and Jen are creating something special in the heart of Tuscany. This is first and foremost a family-run operation, and they pour their hearts into their property and its operation. They've made so many improvements in the year since they've acquired the property, with more enhancements on the horizon. The property's location also makes it a perfect jumping off point to explore more of Tuscany and surrounding regions in Italy, with some highlights including Cortona, Montepulciano, and Florence being just a quick car or train ride away. There also seems to be quite a biking culture in the area, so bring your bike and explore the Tuscan backroads! In addition to the surroundings and natural beauty, the long-time staff of Carla and Ricky are prime examples of Italian hospitality. Come for the views and wine, and leave with memories (and wine and olive oil), the people and place will just keep bringing you back.

I recently stayed at this extraordinary property for the second time while in Tuscany. The property is breathtaking! The accommodations are perfect and cozy, beautiful design, and very clean. The customer service was superb. Every morning, Carla , who is so sweet and kind, prepared the best breakfast spread ever for all the guests. The wine is amazing , the best I have had in Italy by far. The owners, Stephen and Jennifer, go out of their way to assure your stay is memorable. They arranged a photographer for family photos, a cooking class, transportation, and gave us great recommendations for local restaurants , anything we requested and needed, they provided. I definitely plan on returning and in the meantime will be ordering the phenomenal wine and olive oil from my home in states to enjoy. Thanks for a perfect stay again! I look forward to returning and highly recommend anyone visiting Tuscany to visit this piece of paradise.

My wife and I stayed here mid-September and had an incredible time. Beautiful views, delicious wine, and terrific hospitality. Stephen and Jennifer were so welcoming and made us feel like family. Carla was great. She prepared delicious spreads for breakfast and always made sure we had a morning cappuccino. Already missing relaxing by the pool and looking out to see the olive trees and vineyard.

Where do I begin? It is almost impossible to express the breathtakingly beautiful experience of strolling through the vineyard-filled landscape. Walking out of your suite to greet the morning as the sun rose over the trees, sitting outside with a cup of cappuccino just breathing in the glorious fresh air, reading a book under the sun by the pool side. This was the most rejuvenating vacation week I have had in a long time. I was transported to a place of relaxation and charm. I'm not really sure what I was expecting, but what we received was beyond any expectations we might have had. It was the perfect place to unwind, while being close enough to beautiful sights if we felt like exploring other cities. Anything we could have possibly wanted was so graciously provided by Stephen and Jennifer who were so warm and welcoming throughout our entire stay. By the end of the week, I was just wishing I could stay longer. This will be a wonderful memory for a very long time. I look forward to the day I can return.

My husband and I stayed here with our family and we were blown away. From the moment you pull up to the property you are instantly transported to a state of relaxation. Steven and Jennifer have created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere that you feel like family the moment you arrive! The staff was amazing and helpful. Breakfast was my favorite part of the day from the fresh fruits and food to the cappuccinos that Carla would make for us as we sat and watched the sun over the vineyard. The service was outstanding. We spent some time by the pool where you can overlook the winery and walked the property in the evening to catch the sunset. There are adorable towns within a 15min drive to shop and grab great food, and the train station is nearby so you can easily get to any of the big cities. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. We will definitely be back soon!
Review date 23. September 2023
Visited in mid September. The farm, winery, villas are beautiful. No need to visit anywhere else or in major cities. If you’re looking to chill, drink great wine and drive thru small quaint country roads, this is the place to visit. Stephen and wife Jennifer are wonderful hosts and very personable. You will fall in love with them and the pets.

My husband and I had the best week at La Pievuccia and can’t wait to bring back our kids. Stephen and Jennifer were so welcoming, along with their fur animals! We miss our buddy Francis who greeted us at our door every day. We stayed in “Vite” - a very cute spacious loft room that would be perfect for families. The staff were wonderful and made you feel at home. Beautiful views, large pool, delicious wine, close train ride to other areas…10/10! Thank you for an amazing stay!! We will be back soon :)

La Pievuccia is a portal to an oasis of absolute relaxation in the heart of Tuscany. Scenic views, charming walk paths, a large refreshing swimming pool, and not to mention the delicious wine, all help make this place something special! Hosts Stephen and Jennifer epitomize hospitality and are more than willing to go above and beyond to ensure your stay is a memorable one. La Pievuccia is perfectly located in quiet, scenic wine country, but is just an easy hour or two train ride to other large cities. The train station in town is only a 5 minute drive down the road! Cortona, located within a 15 minute drive, may be the most charming city I’ve ever stumbled upon. Highly recommended! There are many delicious restaurants right in Castiglion Fiorentino as well! My stay at La Pievuccia was for five days, but was not nearly long enough. I will definitely be returning as soon as I can!
Review date 21. September 2023
Where to begin. This place is AMAZING! My wife and 1 year old son had the most amazing time taking in the breathtaking views of the grape vines, olive trees, a beautiful swimming pool, and to top it off the castle lights up at night on top of the hill overlooking the property. The wine is a 10/10 and the hospitality was unmatched. Stephen and Jennifer truly make you feel at home the entire time. Also, a special shout out to the staff as they were INCREDIBLE! A ton of laughs, amazing views, and true serenity. We will be back again in the Spring and Fall of next year. THANK YOU LA PIEVUCCIA!!!
Review date 20. September 2023
This was such a lovely place to stay, nestled in the mountains. Your hosts, Jennifer, and Stephen, and their fabulous staff will make your stay unforgettable and will tend to all your needs. A normal day is waking up, eating a great breakfast provided by the staff and taking a morning walk through the vineyards. In the afternoon, you can relax around the pool or with the train station located in the city, you can decide to see other cities. The farm is strategically located. In the evening you can have a night cap at the bar or sit outside and enjoy the sunset. My family loved the place.

A beautiful location with amazing service. Everyone was so friendly and kind, it felt like family. Perfect accommodations for my family including my two young children, who had an amazing time at the farm.
Review date 14. September 2023
We stayed at La Pievuccia for one week and just loved it. We were in the "Fiordaliso" suite which had plenty of Tuscan charm and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The property itself is just stunning, it was good fun walking through the vineyards. The large pool with amazing views really caps it off. The breakfast in the morning (prepared by the lovely Carla) was also a big highlight. The owners Steve and Jennifer were very friendly and made us feel right at home on their property. They were really good with our 7 year old daughter, she misses them! The wines were delicious as well :)

If you are looking for stunning views and relaxing atmosphere this is the place. Sleeping in between the grapevines surrounded by the amazing scenery’s. The owners are very welcoming and will go out of their way to make you feel at home. The pool is very clean and full of comfortable sun bed’s and umbrellas our little daughter had a great time here. All this accompanied by some of the best wines straight from the vineyard make for one of the best stays we had in Italy. We will be back!

La pievuccia is nog maar recent overgenomen door zeer gastvrije Amerianen, Steve bracht ons direct op ons gemak. We sliepen in 1 van de charmante typisch Italiaanse huisjes. Het huisje had een mini keukentje met een gasvuur, een koelkast en een waterkoker. Het bed was groot en de badkamer met douche was proper. Het domein is groot om te verkennen en er zijn veel plaatsen om rustig te zitten, aan het zwembad, in de wijngaard, in de achtertuin of op je eigen patio achter het huisje. Het zwembad is zeker een meerwaarde op warme zomerdagen. Het Italiaanse ontbijt van Carla was echt de moeite waard. Bijna alles was vers uit eigen biologische teelt. De bio wijnen waren echt lekker. Er is ook een mogelijkheid om als kampeerder of met een camper te komen logeren achter in de wijngaard of in de olivegarden. Vriendelijke viervoeters zijn zeker welkom als ze overweg kunnen met Luna, de hond van de eigenaar. Er zijn ook 3 katten aanwezig. Luna is een zeer gastvrije gastvrouw die zelf ook vaak vrienden laat langskomen. Ze kan heel goed overweg met andere honden.

Výborné raňajky, čistý a krásne zariadený apartmán, bazén s nádherným výhľadom, veľmi milí majitelia a personál, nádherné prostredie a strategická poloha na výlety. Ubytovanie La Pievuccia odporúčame všetkým! Ak hľadáte ubytovanie v krásnom prostredí toskánskych viníc a olivových sadov s príjemnou relaxačnou atmosférou a strategickou polohou na výlety, tak to je určite La Pievuccia. Boli sme tu ubytovaní na 10 nocí v júli v krásnom apartmáne. Apartmán bol veľmi vkusne zariadený, plne vybavený aj s najmenšími detailami ako napríklad pikniková deka. Bol čistý, postele boli veľmi pohodlné a cítili sme sa tu veľmi príjemne. Po príchode nás ako darček čakali dve fľaše vína. Celý areál hotela je vybavený tak aby sa návštevníci cítili príjemne a relaxovali. V záhrade sú hojdacie siete, lehátka pod stromami, bazén s úžasnou vodou a dokonalým výhľadom na olivové sady, vinohrady a hrad na kopci. Raňajky boli vynikajúce s domácimi výrobkami, skvelou kávou a príjemnou hudbou. Poloha hotela nám vyhovovala, nakoľko sme si každý deň robili výlety do miest ako Florencia, Siena, Perugia, Arezzo, Assisi, ktoré boli dostupné maximálne 1 hodinu cesty. Dokonca jeden deň sme navštívili aj Rím ktorý bol 2,5 hodiny cesty. Majitelia a personál sú veľmi milí ľudia. Vždy v dobrej nálade, poradili nám kde sa dá v okolí dobre najesť, zaujímali sa ako sa máme, aké máme plány. Vždy sme sa s nim veľmi radi porozprávali. Jeden večer sme mali aj ochutnávku vín kde sme sa dozvedeli aj niečo o histórii viníc a procese výroby vína. Vína sú veľmi chutné a kvalitné. My sme si niekoľko fliaš kúpili pri odchode a vždy keď si jednu otvoríme, tak spomíname na našu dokonalú dovolenku v La Pievuccia. Už od prvého dňa sme sa tu cítili ako doma a nechceli sme odísť. Stephen a Jennifer majú zlatého psíka ktorá sa volá Luna, bola to veľmi milá spoločníčka počas celého pobytu. Určite sa sem ešte vrátime! Ďakujeme Stephen, Jennifer a Carla ❤️

5 stars all around; what an experience. We have been lucky enough to travel to all parts of Italy over the years but we have not enjoyed something like this anywhere else. Truly one of a kind. The hosts, Stephen and Jennifer, make you feel right at home on their beautiful estate amongst the olive trees and grape vines. We can’t wait to come back (already planning return).

While our story brings us from Texas to Tuscany, our love and life together began visiting a small Texas vineyard much like La Pievuccia 15 years ago. It was there that we fell in love as we laid under a blanket of stars dreaming of owning our own farm one day. As our dreams shifted into reality, our greatest hope is to make our new home feel like yours as well; one where you and your entire family look forward to returning to for years to come. Stephen, Jennifer, their amazing team, trusty tractor, guidance from the Papinis, and a few friends authentically care for the land in accordance with nature and the highest respect for creating a sustainable environment.Location & Arrival
