Very nice B&B with fantastic atmosphere, very nice view and comfortable rooms. The owners are very nice and you can really feel at home since your arrival. The hotel is located approx. 3,5 km from the main road but the view and quiet location deserves such 10 min trip. Try the dinner which is served only upon previous reservation and... More

Dear Guest, I would like to thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry you could not fully appreciate the geographical location of Podere Marciano. I can state, for experience, that most guests get used and love the idea of being so much immersed in the nature after a couple of days. We'll be glad to welcome you here if you... More

My sister booked us in here for our final night in Italy, after staying in Rome then Vignamaggio. Well the best was left till last, a typical rustic country road wound its way to a beautiful setting. A super greeting from Frederico awaited! Our room was immaculate and had a lovely balcony to look over the countryside. We went down... More

Antico Podere Marciano is exceptional place to spend vacation. It is relaxing and very authentic- nothing like mass market hotels... My favorite part of the days in Toscania was delicious breakfast in the lovely garden at Antico Podere. I highly recommend this B&B to anyone who values their vacation. Yes the B&B is a bit pricy but it is worth... More

I enjoyed my stay at Antico Podere Marciano very much. We stayed for 4 nights in September and it was exactly what I was looking for. That being said if you come to stay here you need to realize that this is a B and B and not a 5 start luxury full service hotel. You are definitely off the... More

Thank you very much for your detailed review. I would like to comment on some of your points: 1) availability of the owner/manager: as this, as mentioned, is not a 5 star full service luxury hotel, I am not permanently in the reception office or at the bar in the evening. When I welcome my guests I always tell them... More

I'm actually writing this while sitting in the living area of the B&B. We're very sad to be leaving tomorrow! This has been an amazing place to stay while visiting Tuscany. Very centrally located while being extremely secluded. Just be aware that the road to get to Antico Podere Marciano is very bumpy and takes some getting used to. Other... More
