We enjoyed our time at Col di Forche. it is a lovely property, but the place is definitely quirky. The lights frequently dim for no reason, you must turn off one set of lights in the kitchen if you use the oven or a fuse will blow, the TV is in the kitchen, where there is no comfortable seating. Not sure why it isn't in the living room. Although a Fireplace was listed in the dining room, we were not allowed to use it or any of the other fireplaces and it was very cold in the house. The heat, which we used sparingly because it was so expensive, did not really warm the place up. A fire would have been great. I think it's probably a good place to go in the summer but not in the spring. Don't recommend the place if you have a bad back as the road to it, while very picturesque, is very bumpy. And its about a 10 minute ride up that road. The villa itself is beautiful and, as I said, probably fine in the warmer months.

The overall experience was very good. The owners were a pleasure to deal with and the location was excellent.The rustic charm of the Villa made the experience memorable.

Despite rather cool, damp weather, we had a great stay at Podere Pievina. Our hosts could not have been more accommodating and helpful. We especially enjoyed our pasta making lesson with them, along with the wonderful meal that followed. Podere Pievina was our home base from which we explored Lucignano, Cortona, Montepulciano, La Foce Garden and more. We also took the train from Sinalunga to Florence, stayed one night and spent part of the next day in Siena.

This was an idyllic place to stay in Tuscany. We can't recommend it enough. We had 16 people (10 adults and 6 children) and we all had a wonderful stay. The house was beautiful and very functional with lots of spaces to congregate, play or read quitely. The outdoor space couldn't have been more beautiful and perfect for eating, relaxing and playing. We were well taken care of by Franco who was available to answer questions, help us find a great cook for an evening, and help a locked out family get in : ). I had a vision of a relaxing place with great views and lots of space for the kids to play outside and eat inside or outside and we got just what we were looking for.

We had a wonderful week at Villa Agostino and would love to return. It is a great location for day trips to all of the southern area of Tuscany.
