Finding the right balance

Even after over 15 years of welcoming guests to our little slice of Tuscany, we continue to consider Poggiosole a work in progress. From the outset, Gianni and Lilia, and now their son Alex, set out to create an experience tied to their own pleasure of re-discovering this land, and nearby towns and cities, upon returning to Tuscany in 1998 after many years living in the U.S.

​

The fienile, with its two lodgings, was totally rebuilt in 2005-2006 from its original stone walls and roof tiles, then upgraded internally in 2021 and further refined in 2022-23. Blending modern tech, designer lighting and furniture from a range of periods and styles, Begonia and Le Rose reflect the eclectic tastes of three generations.

​

Just outside the lodgings are Poggiosole's olive groves: Gianni's pride and Alex's passion. Read about them here and here. Better, come visit and take a walking tour.
