My friend and I had a lovely stay at La Capanna di Sovestro. The place is located on a beautiful, rural property in the country and is owned by a couple who speaks only Italian (but are very good at explaining with facial expressions and hand gestures). They were so warm and welcoming and helpful despite the language barrier. You... More

I agree with the other reviewers - La Capanna is the place to stay in Tuscany! It met all our requirements like a great location (1-1.5h to all Tuscany attractions), walking distance to picturesque San Gimignano, homely atmosphere, quiet location. And it was more! Very kind and caring hosts, homemade cakes and flowers all around. Our 2-year-old still asks about... More

Everything was as I read here and in other comments! Bruno, MariaStella and Damiane are very nice people, trying to help us in every moment, giving maps, explanation, suggestions. The house is exactly what I expected to find in "La Toscana", the views from the balcony are wonderful! The apartment I rented was perfect! with a big kitchen, everything was... More

Stayed here for 1 night with my pals in our tour of Tuscany. Its a bit tricky to find at first but look out for Hotel Sovestro and you are just a bit of distance away. The room is clean and have a homely feel to it (something we greatly appreciate after being away from home for a while). The... More

The hosts make you feel very welcome and put a lot of effort into preparing your stay. The rooms are clean although a little bit dusty (lots of carpets & curtains) but generally well accommodated. The view and panorama is limited, however a nice terrace to enjoy a relaxed breakfast on a sunny morning allows for a pleasant surrounding. The... More

There are many many positives about this B&B and they are covered by the other reviews. It is worth emphasizing how kind the owners, Bruno and Maria are. They do not speak English but are very caring and helpful. They are usually around their yard (the house above) during the day should you need anything. We were met the first... More

capanna di sovestro is a terrific place to stay. it's clean, it has space, wi-fi, you get nice outdoor breakfast and it's quite in the centre so you can easily go around tuscany. however, what made us stay there for a week is the hospitality of the owner (bruno, damiano, cirilo and family). they are so friendly and always there...

Booked La Cappana di Sovestro on internet. It is a lovely Tuscan refurbished cottage. We occupied the ground floor and enjoyed all the facilities. We bought local produce and cooked our dinners each evening. It was clean and comfortable. Our hosts were particularly friendly and accommodating. Home made cake from mother and fresh tomatoes, olive oil, plums, eggs, etc. from... More
