Podere la Strega

This wonderful hotel is what you would expect on the outskirts of Siena. It has a beautiful rustic feel about the place with lovely decorated rooms with traditional Italian furniture, large beds, and the rooms do have air conditioning. It is a family run hotel and with that you get a warm family feeling from the staff and the owners. There is a swimming pool with more than enough sunbeds and the lawns and garden just make the lay down area relaxing. We had bed and breakfast which was served in a lovely outside shaded area next to the kitchen. The breakfast was mostly home made produce with various meats bread cheese and eggs, more than enough. There is a relaxation area both inside and outside the premises and a communal fridge and cooking area if you fancy making a meal, There is a short cut walk into Siena which will take you about 25 mins, half of the walk is downhill and the other half is mostly up hill until you arrive in the main square. Letitia and her staff could not do enough for us. My Daughter was getting married nearby and they found out the gave us a bottle of Champagne. So kind. I would love to think we could return to this place in the future.

We have been blown away by how stunning and authentic this place is. It’s peaceful, beautiful and I haven’t slept this well for a long time. It’s about 15/20 € in a taxi into Siena and they are easy to get. The hotel ordered ours going out last night and we got one home from the taxi rank no problem. Everything is homemade for breakfast. If you are looking for a relaxing Italian break book this place x

Such a beautiful setting with lovely people running the place as well as those visiting. The breakfast each morning was a treat with hot, cold and sweet options. Our room was very comfortable, bed included. The farmhouse is unique and enjoyable to explore. The views are beautiful.

Stunning house and hosts. I am in awe of Leticia and her husband love and care for their home which is now their business. The property is breathtaking the reception area welcomed you with loads of their beautiful portraits and I can see how much history these walls hold. Everything is impeccable and Leticia and her husband are a force. I hope every guests that enters their home is loving back to them as they are with their guests.
