Where to stay in Italy

Hi All,

Going on my honeymoon in Oct 2017 and looking for recommendations for places to stay in Tuscany. We were thinking of staying at a farmhouse b&b. Our friends recommended Agriturismo Marciano and ive seen a lot of posts about this place but, unfortunately it is booked when we are going. Any recommendations for places similar to Agriturismo Marciano.

Thanks!

We were very pleased with ---
Castello Di Montegufoni (Montegufoni.eu)

About 20 mins or so outside of Florence. There is a city bus pick up point there BUT a car works better.

Not familiar with Marciano so don't know how it compares. It is a thousand year old castle.

I will mark that one in my list of places to stay !

Here are some more:
Cretaiole - Isabella is a wonderful host who cooks with her guests - she is outside of Montepulciano.
Borgo Argenina - Elena has homemade breakfasts on the terrace overlooking the vineyards and she cooks one evening with her guests. Then all the new friends sit down at her LARGE table for the feast. This is outside of Castellina.
