Agriturismo Tuscany September 2025

My wife and I are in our late 60's early 70's, will be leaving Florence after 5 nights following nearly three weeks of travel through the Adriatic and Veneto, renting a car for a drive through Tuscany for 3 or 4 nights that may conclude in Orvieto.

We are thinking about dropping the car in Orvieto and staying a night or so before leaving for Rome by car where we plan to stay 5 nights. My wife prefers not to drive on to Rome.

We would like a place to stay for two nights to explore the Siena/Chianti region hill towns, one that is comfortable. Preferably one with a good restaurant attached. We are not looking for a spa or cooking classes. We would enjoy the natural surroundings.

We are considering a second agritourism location in southern Tuscany with similar characteristics to explore that region for 2 nights after leaving the northern location.

Are there any favorites that may fit our needs? Are there any suggestions regarding these plans?

Thanks much.

In Chianti we stayed near Greve in Chianti in the country house Castellinuzza Cantina e Agriturismo. In addition to a very pleasant B&B there is a winery and, atleast in the past, they served dinners on request. But the best dining was at the Ristoro di Lamole in the. Tiny village a few kilometers away.

Many thanks for your reply. Arranging this 2 month trip has been daunting for this old infrequent traveller..

We thought we might prefer 2 nights further south in Chianti or Crete Senesi and then 2 nights in a place in Val D'Orcia but our thinking may be wrong.

Perhaps 4 nights in one or the other might be more restful and enjoyable. I any event we would prefer further south in the region than you suggest.

Any comments welcome.
