Il Pigionale used to be the hostel of this medieval village! A stone tower over two levels with a narrow terrace to lead you to the entrance.
A grapevine grows from a tiny hole in the stone to give you shade while sitting and looking at people passing by on the main square, why not, with a glass of wine in your hand?

Easily the best accommodation we have had on our whole trip round Italy. Lovely little property in a quiet Tuscan village, with a great welcome from beautiful hosts. What more can you expect?

Villa was perfect, the village was so peaceful and the people very friendly and helpful.
Irene was the most thoughtful and helpful host I have ever known. Her local knowledge and information made such a difference to our somewhat random plan. Such a beautiful area and staying at Il Pigionale made it a fantastic holiday. Thank you, Irene.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
This little house had everything we needed. The village is just what my husband and I were looking for - quaint, quiet, friendly, and close to many larger towns for day trips. However, the best part of this rental was the unexpected awesomeness of Irene and Edoardo - the owners and hosts. The two of them made our experience unforgettable, personable, and unique. They were always on the ready for advice or suggestions, and even were available to be tour guides. They became more like friends than tour guides! We will definitely go back and stay at one of Irene and Edoardo’s places!

This property is outstanding. The village is pure Tuscany, small enough to have the charming allure but large enough to have ammenities. The property was wonderful. Clean, well equipped with anything you might need. The property manager Irene bent over backwards to be of any assistance. Rent this property! You will no be dissapointed

Our stay at Il Pigionale was one of the highlights of our trip. You really experience the local ‘italian’ feeling.

An amazing experience. For all we did in Italy, the time in Pergine Valdarno and our wonderful time with our host are by far our favourite memories. A great villa, a great host, and a fantastic village lifestyle that one can simply blend into. A beautiful experience!

I higly recommend this Villa and the owner as well. :)
2-floors, stylish furnished and equipped with all necessary things.
Beutiful garden with swimming-pool (did not use it, as we stayed in Nov).
All rooms with bathrooms - it is very comfortable.
Irene is a perfect host! She took care of us and show around a village.
Her tips and hints were very useful.
This is a truly TUSCANY place :)
Would love to come back on summer with friends.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
We had a fabulous stay in this friendly village. The apartment was really lovely. Everyone should stay here! The dinner was the high-light of the visit. Irene was very helpful. It was nice to stay in a small family run apartment, as it had all the personal touches.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Perrine Valdarno and Il Pigionale. The family who owns the villa is absolutely delightful and hardworking. This location is in a quiet village with basic services, including a restaurant, within a city block's walking distance and is situated in a central position to explore Tuscany. Of course, like previous renters, we loved the "Cooking night" at the owner's farmhouse.

We had a wonderful time in Tuscany and Il Pigionale was one of the main reasons. It's an old building but in perfect shape, spotlessly clean, and thus very charming. The piazza in which it's located is scenic and lovely.
Most important, Irene, the property manager, was friendly and helpful and flexible and...just great. She was a big part of making this a really memorable stay.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes

The villa was everything we hoped for. We loved being right in the piazza. The neighbors were so friendly. Irene couldn't have been more helpful and we enjoyed getting to know her family when we had our cooking lesson at their house. What a wonderful night!! I would definitely recommend this villa to family and friends.

One of the best and most relaxing vacations we have had. A very nice small villa in a beautiful small community that had everything you needed to make yourself at home. The location was perfect as it was an easy drive on a day trip to other locals we wished to visit. The owners were most accomodating and the dinner cooked and served at their home was probably the highlight of the trip. Everybody participated in the cooking with Irene and her mother doing the coaching. We will definitly return and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to escape the big cities, spend time in the beautiful Italian countryside and actually spend time with the locals. It was a great experience!

This was the first place we stayed on our two week trip traveling in Italy. It was a perfect experience of the small village life and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It turned out to be a central location to travel to other sights, and then could return for a quiet and peaceful night get rested for the next day of adventures. The town also had quaint coffee cafe, butcher, baker, bar and restaurant

We had a fabulous time in Pergine Valdarno travelling with our teenage daughters. We were travelling without a car but this was not a problem. We were met at the train station in Ponticino by Irene who drove us to the accommodation. From our initial introduction Irene was absolutely delightful. She was very enthusiastic and accommodating. Nothing was a problem. Irene took us on a tour of the local town which has everything - a butcher, pharmacy, bakery, fruit and veg, local supermarket, restaurant. The property was very clean and had a lot of character being over 500 years old. Not having a car was not a problem as Irene offered to escort us to wherever we wanted to visit. We visited Arrezzo, Siena, Cinque Terre and Pisa with Irene driving and accompanying us. To have Irene in our company was a highlight of our travels and her ability to communicate with the locals meant that we had a real Tuscan experience. We ate at places that served authentic Tuscan food and were away from the tourist area. Irene's rate for this service was very reasonable. Another major highlight of our stay was the cooking lesson with Irene and her beautiful Mum Marina. We were made to feel like part of the family and the food was delicious!!! To share a traditional home cooked meal with Irene and her family was a real treat. We would love to come back to Tuscany and would most certainly stay again at one of Irene's properties. Make sure that you visit Carabe Italian Gelato & Granita whilst in Tuscany. Antonio makes the freshest and best Gelato. We thank you Irene for our amazing memories of Tuscany.

Fixed quickly by very friendly owners. All beds possibly the most comfortable in Italy.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
We were looking to experience authentic Tuscany and that is exactly what the Gren family offered. They were there to greet us and then welcomed us into their home for a cooking lesson (which actually felt like a dinner with old friends!). The village is quaint and has everything you need and the villa is in an ideal location. Highly recommended for families - our three adult kids loved it!

We had a great time in this small village. Il Pigionale was very nice, well situated in the village, and was a great place for the four of us to start our journey in Italy. Irene was a wonderful host which made our stay that much more enjoyable!

We spent 6 wonderful days in Tuscany staying at Il Pigionale. It was just what we had hoped it would be! It is in a small little village with just what you need, a small grocery with meats, cheeses, and wines, a little fruit and vegetable store, a church (which I think everyone in the village attended Sunday), a bakery,
and two bars where you get your morning coffee and roll! ( All within walking distance)!The people in the village all knew we were visitors and were very welcoming to us! We felt like we were a part of the village! The young brother and sister that manage it
are precious and we feel in love with them! One of
our favorite experiences of the whole trip was our cooking lesson and dinner at their home. We were apart of cooking a wonderful Tuscan dinner including Tiramisu!!!! They are a lovely family and the evening was delightful!!
The house was perfect for two couples with a bedroom downstairs and two upstairs. We both had our own bathrooms!
It is centrally located for day trips to Arezzo, Florence, Siena, Assisi, etc.
Thank you Irene and Edourdo for all of your suggestions, kindness , and especially allowing us us to experience authentic Tuscan life!!!!Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
Fantastic property. I was there with my 4 adult daughters for a very special trip together and il pigionale provided such an authentic stay in Tuscany.

Il Pigionale in the lovely little village of Pergine Valdarno was the perfect home base for sight seeing in Tuscany. The property was lovely and comfortable. The village was perfect, just what I had envisioned of a true Italian village. A wonderful restaurant, LeCantine, within walking distance served outstanding food and wine at very reasonable prices. We will definitly come back to Il Pigionale and Pergine Valdarno.

We are pleased that we chose Il Pigionale as home base for our 2 weeks in Tuscany. The property provided everything the four of us needed.

Ons verblijf in Il Pigionale was super. Het huis heeft alle benodigde voorzieningen en ligt op een bevallig pleintje.Bakker,slager,restaurant en supermarktje zijn allemaal op loopafstand en het is ook een goede uitvalsbasis om de omgeving te verkennen.Er is zelfs een prada outlet enkele km's verder.De eigenaars zijn zeer aangename en hulpvaardige mensen.We mochten gebruik maken van hun zwembad en de kookles met Marina is gewoon een aanrader.

Our stay at Il Pigionale was super. The house has all the necessary amenities and is situated on a graceful little square. Bread, butcher, restaurant and supermarket are all within walking distance and it is also a good base for exploring the surrounding area. There is a Prada outlet at only a few km. The owners are very pleasant and helpful people. We could use their pool and cooking lessons with Marina is a must.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
My husband and I recently had a week at Il Pigionale and it was just perfect! We had been touring for 5 weeks and really needed some relaxation and stability for a while. The apartment was very comfortable and homely (such a plus to have the washing machine)and everything we needed was available in the village. The location in Tucany was very central making it an easy drive where ever we wanted to go. The local markets are wonderful. We would highly recommend this stay.

This location was a very good base to visit popular sites of Tuscany like Sienna, Arezzo, Montepulciano, Florence, San Gimignano, Cortona. Montevarchi. There was a very good restaurant within walking distance with great food and wines at a reasonable price, The Cantine. The villa was comfortable but the living quarters were on the small side for five. We found the stairway to the second floor somewhat dangerous for a child. We had a great stay.

We've rented villas and cottages in France, Canada and the USA, and this is one of the nicest. The 5 of us found Il Pigionale comfortable, charming and practical; it is newly renovated and everything was in good working order. Situated in the Piazza del Commune of the quaint Pergine Valdarno, everything needed is close by: small grocery store, fruits and vegetables and a butcher. It is worth spending time in the village and buying and preparing one's own food - everything was delicious.
The owners, Marina and Francesco, and their cildren Giulio and Irena were very hospitable and always helpful. Marina guided us in the preparation of a delicious Tuscan meal at their home, which was enjoyable.
The village of Pergine Valdarno is in the heart of Tuscany - 45 minutes from Florence, Siena, Cortona, and Assisi is only about 90 minutes away.

We (husband, wife and 15 year old son) had a great time at Il Pigionale. It is the quintessential Tuscan villa. Located in a small village on a hilltip. The village has an excellant restaraunt, butcher, fruit shop and small supermarket. Under the house was a fully equipped laundry, that came in handy. The owners of the villa were fantastic. Waiting for us was one bottle of white wine and one bottle of red. We also took up the option of a free cooking lesson with Marina in their home (about 20 kms away). It was a highlight of our trip. We make pasta, meat dish plus a pie for desert, all from first principles. Then we ate the diner together with their family. Sensational. They are perfect hosts. The villa is centally located to all points in Tuscany, although a car is essential. The villa is beatifully finished. I am sure you would not be disappointed. Highly recommended.
