The 2-bedroom suite was just as described, but the bedrooms themselves were not directly air conditioned. It was a little uncomfortable at night, but not a deal breaker. Would we stay there again?

Jun 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfection I don’t even know where to begin. From the moment we arrived at Podere Cunina we were in awe of the beauty and the kindness of Silvana and her family. The listing does not do it justice. The botanic gardens are spectacular, the pool so relaxing, the home spotless and authentic, and the views mesmerizing. We were in Italy for a three week holiday and our stay at Podere Cunina was the middle of our trip. We relaxed, recharged our batteries, and enjoyed going into town for dinners. Try Il Cantuccio Wine Bar got apertivo and dinner! We will definitely return to your home Silvana. I long to sit and watch the storms roll in, hear the bees buzzing and birds singing, and smell the sweet jasmine. Grazie mille!! ##### Amy H.

The sunsets were beautiful, the location had a beautiful pool, the gardens were gorgeous but the greatest part was Silvana and Giorgio and the love they have put into restoring this wonderful property from its days as a historic farm. They knew every bit about the area and were full of recommendations for things to do. One of the greatest things we did on our trip was the cooking lesson with Marcello. We learned to make Pasta, Meat Sauce, a Pork secondo dish and Tiramisu. Then the family ate it with us with some wonderful wine. They do not have a meal service on the property but the town of Buonoconvento was a 4 min drive to cafes and restaurants and a nice coop grocery store.

Jun 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Perfect Tuscan Escape for Families My wife and I, along with our three little kids, had a wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated farmhouse in Tuscany. We visited at the end of May when the weather was perfect, and the blooming green vegetation added to the charm. The impressive property sits atop a hill, offering a breathtaking 360-degree view of the picturesque Tuscan landscape. We were thrilled to have a direct view of the renowned Montalcino, famous for its wineries. The location was also ideal for exploring, with Siena just a convenient drive away. We stayed in a spacious and clean apartment within the large farmhouse. The traditional Tuscan decor gave it a warm and authentic feel. The garden was well-maintained, and the large pool was a highlight for the kids. The apartment was well-equipped with all modern amenities, including WiFi, a laundry machine, a dishwasher, TV, and a fully functional kitchen. Our hosts, Silvana and her family, were incredibly friendly and supportive. They welcomed us warmly and provided seamless communication throughout our stay. Their recommendations greatly enhanced our experience. It was clear that they genuinely cared about our comfort and enjoyment. Overall, we had an amazing and memorable time at this beautiful farmhouse. We highly recommend this property for a family-friendly Tuscan getaway. We look forward to returning and give it the highest rating. The hosts’ genuine care for their guests made us feel truly welcomed. ##### Michael R.

The surrounding area has so much to see and do, all within 30 mins to 1 hr away and Siena is very accessible for an afternoon/evening (35 mins by car). We were only there for 5 nights/4 days and could have stayed much longer as it was such a great location. Silvana and her husband Giorgio were very warm and welcoming and gave great advice on where to visit. We'd love to visit again someday! ##### Lisa Lowe Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann G.

The setting is simply beautiful. Our apartment was lovely and comfortable. Marcello took us on a full day tour of the area and we learned so much about the local wines and towns. We would love to come back at a warmer time of year to experience the pool and the outdoor places to enjoy the views. ##### Ann G. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica S.

Our family, two adults and two boys 8 & 9 years old, absolutely adored the property that we chose based on its location. The host family was welcoming and attentive even though they were busy running a working farm. We spent a day with Marcello learning to cook a menu of traditional Tuscan dishes and this was a definite highlight for the whole family. We just left and our boys can't stop talking about our next visit. ##### Justo G. G. Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leigh C. Jun 5, 2018 #### Can’t wait to go back!

Nov 15, 2017 #### Best place on earth! This was our second trip to Podere Cunina and as soon as we left we were/are planning our return! We've traveled all over Italy and we haven't found another spot that is as beautiful. The view is spectacular. No power lines, highways, just gorgeous Tuscan countryside and amazing and natural landscaping on the property. It is clear that the owners have poured their hearts and souls into renovating the property and you can feel it when you visit. The property is extremely well-maintained. The owners go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed. They even baked our daughter a cake for her birthday and it was delicious. We have enjoyed the cooking class that is offered on site, loved sitting by the pool, hiked to the Big Tree, and sometimes did not even leave the property. When we did leave, we enjoyed the closest town of Buon Convento and the nearby Montalcino (great shopping) and other towns so tiny they only had one (delicious!) restaurant. We also went to the hot springs and visited a monastery still in use - that also produces wine too. I can not say enough good things about Podere Cunina. ##### Amy G.

Silvana and family came highly recommended by a friend who had stayed there before. The location, apartment and family interactions did not disappoint!!! The location is perfect for those touring wineries. The view from the top of their hill is spectacular. We enjoyed the sunset each night with a great bottle of wine. Loved having a full kitchen in our apartment as we cooked several nights at home. Take advantage of their beautiful outdoor grill area. We took the cooking class with their son Marchello. It was so much fun and we loved being able to sit down and eat our creations with the family. Marchello also took us around to wineries for two days. It was great to leverage his knowledge of wine and the region. Be sure to purchase some of their yummy honey and olive oil to cook with while you are there. They also ship!! We have already placed our orders. We can't wait to return to this lovely Tuscan gem and the wonderful family that owns it!!! ##### Lettie P.

Nous avons connu la meilleure expérience de tout notre voyage de vingt-sept jours dans le nord de l'Italie. L'emplacement près de la région du Montalcino et Montepulciano que notre gentille hôte nous a recommandé de visiter pour se rincer l'œil en même temps que sa proximité de Sienne est idéale pour apprécier la Toscane. Bien que cette région charmante où on sent que les habitants préserveront au mieux la qualité de la terre et des immeubles nous ait ravie, nous avons fait en sorte d'assister béats au lever comme au coucher de soleil bien assis dans des coins aménagés sur la propriété même pour profiter du spectacle. Et quel spectacle ! Un régal pour les yeux et une nourriture pour l'âme. Quant à l'intérieur de la propriété, vous y trouverez des pièces d'artisanat qui vous reporteront les décennies plus tôt, tout en bénéficiant du confort moderne d'une cuisine et d'une salle de bains bien équipées. Je réserve mes derniers commentaires pour nos hôtes qui sont prévoyants, chaleureux et qui ont un attachement à ces terres de la Toscane manifeste par la culture qu'ils en font, mais aussi par leurs connaissances de ses spécificités. Au-delà de tout, la famille entière met tant d'amour à l'ouvrage de voir à tout et à tous, ils sont d'une discrétion et d'une efficacité exemplaire... Bref, ils font honneur à leur métier de faire vivre une expérience de voyage mémorable au plus grand nombre. Saurez-vous en profiter ? ##### C L.

Jul 8, 2017 #### A Fantastic Five-Star Experience Certainly a five star experience. The hosts were extremely helpful and provide a note book full of tips for cities and restaurants to visit and scenic drives to take. We booked the on-site cooking class which we highly recommend. It was a fun learning experience and gave us time to visit with the wonderful hosts. We visited for five days and left as friends. We love to drive so we spent many hours exploring the country side looking for the best views. Very few were better then the 360 degree views from the house. You can cook in the apartment or drive 10 minutes to the nearby town of Buoncovento where there are several good restaurants. We highly recommend Ristorante Mura. The apartment was very clean. You could easily spend all day at the lovely pool or just use it to cool off after a day of sight seeing. As we were leaving we were already planning our next visit. ##### Scott C.

I can't recommend Cunina more highly, we stayed with our two boys (6&8) for 12 days in April. The Freddi family are really kind and charming hosts, the property offers stunning views and is a great location for exploring the beautiful Tuscan countryside, its historic villages and the beautiful city of Siena. Cunina is perched on a hilltop outside the charming village of Buonconvento. Pictures won't do the views justice, it is truly breathtaking, a perfect 360°. As well as rolling hills, cypress trees, dears, foxes and all kids of wildlife you can see Montalcino (famous for its Brunello wine) and Siena in the distance. The Freddi family were the most kind and thoughtful hosts, we did the cooking class and wine tour with both of which we throughly enjoyed. Marcello also took the boys bee keeping and the beautiful Silvana baked our boys an apple cake on our final day. We also visited the areas hot springs, went tree climbing, did a brilliant cycle tour (twice) with Anima Toscana and loved hanging out in Buonconvento eating Gelato and perfect Pici in Ristorante Da Mario, a local family-run restaurant, which did the best Osso Bucco I've ever tasted. I'd love to think we will head back to beautiful Cunina one day, for now we have taken some very special memories home with us. ##### Sara C.

Jan 17, 2017 #### Lovely home, lovely family Our stay at Podere Cunina was the highlight of our trip to Italy. The accommodations were comfortable and clean, the views wonderful, and the property is very well maintained and inviting. Two of our party took a cooking class from Marcello and the rest of us then joined the family for an unforgettable evening of wonderful food and conversation. The location was great for exploring several towns and sites in the area, and for taking a day to stay home and breathe the clean Tuscan air. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Margaret W.

Jan 15, 2017 #### Genuine and memorable Tuscan experience Pondere Cunina is one of the top-grade place we have stayed at. A great location for a base and to explore SouthernTuscany. This farmhouse, is run by a genuine, passionate and hard working family. Even though are visit was during the critical timing of olive harvest and oil making, Silvana, Marcello and Piergiorgio, generously offered us a cooking class and an olive oil tasting (a must). Located on a small hill top among olive trees and a beautiful herb gardens, this place is a perfect location to enjoy the immediate surrounding while exploring the beautiful areas of Southern Tuscany. With another couple, we rented the Salix which is a large 2-bedroom apartment, clean, fully equipped kitchen with a magnificent view of the countryside. A truly Tuscan experience! ##### suzanne l. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Poderi Arcangelo](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Gimignano-Hotels-Poderi-Arcangelo.h1492186.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany](https://www.expedia.ca/Casole-DElsa-Hotels-Castello-Di-Casole.h5058985.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Le Fioriere](https://www.expedia.ca/Praiano-Hotels-Hotel-Le-Fioriere.h1897502.Hotel-Information) > > [Cristina Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/SantAgnello-Hotels-Cristina-Hotel.h16729.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Excelsior Amalfi](https://www.expedia.ca/Amalfi-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Excelsior-Amalfi.h1105705.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel San Giorgio](https://www.expedia.ca/Civitavecchia-Hotels-Hotel-San-Giorgio.h1709306.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgo Scopeto Wine & Country Relais](https://www.expedia.ca/Castelnuovo-Berardenga-Hotels-Borgo-Scopeto-Relais.h1277546.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel President Viareggio](https://www.expedia.ca/Viareggio-Hotels-Hotel-President-Viareggio.h1089282.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mulino di Firenze, WorldHotels Crafted](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-Mulino-Di-Firenze.h3619961.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Panoramic](https://www.expedia.ca/Maiori-Hotels-Residence-Hotel-Panoramic.h44539994.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sorrento Palace](https://www.expedia.ca/Sorrento-Hotels-Hilton-Sorrento-Palace.h791135.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Amalfi-Hotels-NH-Collection-Grand-Hotel-Convento-Di-Amalfi.h2885039.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello Vicchiomaggio](https://www.expedia.ca/Greve-In-Chianti-Hotels-Castello-Vicchiomaggio.h7564854.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Chalet Al Foss](https://www.expedia.ca/Vermiglio-Hotels-Hotel-Chalet-Al-Foss.h9810090.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Lake Como](https://www.expedia.ca/Como-Hotels-Hilton-Lake-Como.h17246644.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Borgo San Luigi](https://www.expedia.ca/Monteriggioni-Hotels-Hotel-Borgo-San-Luigi.h527532.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello di Spaltenna- Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Gaiole-In-Chianti-Hotels-Castello-Di-Spaltenna.h2540741.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Marina Riviera](https://www.expedia.ca/Amalfi-Hotels-Hotel-Marina-Riviera.h1419029.Hotel-Information) > > [UNA Hotels Capotaormina](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-UNAHOTELS-Capotaormina.h22100.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa di Piazzano - Small Luxury Hotel of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Cortona-Hotels-Villa-Di-Piazzano-Small-Luxury-Hotel-Of-The-World.h971985.Hotel-Information) > > [Santa Caterina](https://www.expedia.ca/Amalfi-Hotels-Santa-Caterina.h2541496.Hotel-Information) > > [Verdura Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sciacca-Hotels-Verdura-Resort.h2512326.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Miramalfi](https://www.expedia.ca/Amalfi-Hotels-Hotel-Miramalfi.h1130642.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mary](https://www.expedia.ca/Vico-Equense-Hotels-Hotel-Mary.h4947835.Hotel-Information) > > [Altafiumara Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Villa-San-Giovanni-Hotels-Altafiumara-Resort-Spa.h1366348.Hotel-Information) > > [Grotta Giusti Thermal Spa Resort Tuscany, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Monsummano-Terme-Hotels-Grotta-Giusti-Thermal-Spa-Resort-Tuscany.h904294.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgo Vescine](https://www.expedia.ca/Radda-In-Chianti-Hotels-Il-Borgo-Di-Vescine.h1180553.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Palladium Sicilia Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Campofelice-Di-Roccella-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Sicilia-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2032217.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello Di Vicarello](https://www.expedia.ca/Cinigiano-Hotels-Castello-Di-Vicarello.h1760188.Hotel-Information) > > [Caruso, A Belmond Hotel, Amalfi Coast](https://www.expedia.ca/Ravello-Hotels-Caruso.h1129096.Hotel-Information)
