Porcigliano is a rustic Tuscan B&B with all the modern amenities. Perched on a hillside overlooking beautiful Tuscany, you feel a million miles away from the busy Italian metropolitans, but in actuality, this B&B is about 20-30 minutes away from Florence's city center. Gabriella is the perfect host who is fluent in English and very knowledgeable about the region. There's... More

We had a wonderful week-long stay in this place. It was comfortable and so restful after visiting Florence or the Chianti region. Gabriella was very helpful and good fun to talk to in English or in French. The breakfasts were delicious in the verandah while we planned our daily programme. Il Porcigliano is a cool retreat after the hustle and... More

We spent five nights with Gabbriella, the house was perfect, she made us feel completely at home from the moment we arrived. This B&B was a truly wonderful find and we enjoyed every moment. The tranquility of the Porcigliano Bed and Breakfast was just what we needed after spending the day at Moto GP at Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello.

Gabriella was a delight and she gave my mum and I plenty of help with arranging day trips and giving us tips on the local area and central Florence.... More

We arrived to Gabbriella's after travelling for nearly two weeks across Northern Italy. We arrived a little earlier in the afternoon than anticipated and were greeted with a warm welcome by Gabbriella who invited us in and made us feel at home. Her place is beautiful, it could be straight out of any movie or television show that features Tuscany.... More

Really nice place, beautifully located, quiet and very clean. Price is very reasonable. And nearby restaurant ("Lake Forest"), although the only one in neighbourhood, is really excellent with fantastic, friendly staff. By the way, greetings for Pippo :)

We are most thankful for the stay we had at Gabbriella’s house, 400 meter up on the hills in the most beautiful surroundings. We had wonderful breakfasts served outside, sitting in a beautiful garden with a view of the green mountains. One evening we were served a most delicious dinner in the garden. We had many very interesting discussions with... More

If you are looking for an authentic Tuscany life, simply and superb quality of living, this is the place you must see for yourself. I had the best stay ever in Porcigliano. Any 5 stars hotel is hard to come close to this. Nature is always rewarding. This is a 5 stars property, 6 stars service at a reasonable price.... More
