Agriturismo il Rigo In San quirico d'orcia

It's been two weeks since we left and we still talk about how wonderful it was to be there. Note: The review is 5 stars for what it is, not compared to the Ritz-Carlton or the Orient Express La Dolce Vita. That said, it would earn those 5 stars against much more expensive locations. There are so many good things to say about il Rigo! The people are the true stars, always welcoming, helpful, and a delight to be around. They became our new friends. A special acknowledgement to Lucia, a ray of sunshine every time we saw her. Noemi was a great resource for local info and we had a useful, enjoyable wine lesson from Matthias. Breakfast was always a great start to the day made better when the decadent chocolate dessert "leftovers" from dinner the night before were served with breakfast. Dessert for breakfast?!? That is VACATION! We ate several fantastic dinners at il Rigo. Sometimes the menu is "foreign" but trust that the preparation will be delicious and be bold enough to try new things-- you will be rewarded. The buildings and grounds are well-kept, clean, and a perfect Tuscan experience. Our room, in the second building, was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The view was great, bathroom was comfortably large and quite, bed and pillows, etc., were all good. There is a water kettle and refrigerator/freezer in the common area. Laundry service is available on site, I think it was 35 Euro. We went in to town and used the laundromat, for the experience, and spent about 20 Euros. We were expecting brown landscapes and were pleasantly surprised by how green it was. Many fields were brown but some were green as were the trees, etc. The gardens at il Rigo were a joy to see. We rented an electric car. While il Rigo does not have charging (and not expected!) we were able to find charging stations easily enough. Our car was able to handle all but the very gnarliest (truly a tractor path!) "roads". There is plenty of free parking at il Rigo. Our stay was 9 days at il Rigo. We would do it again without hesitation.

It was an amazing experience. The place is simply lovely, the hosts were amazing and we would definitely come back. The food was very good as well, cannot recommend it enough.

If you're looking for the experience of staying at an Italian farmhouse B&B, I highly recommend it. However, if you're more interested in relaxation than experience—if room quality is important, you're sensitive to sleep, or you're on a special trip like a honeymoon—I wouldn't recommend it. Of course, this isn't a hotel (and considering the low price), I recommend considering the information below. Please bring any necessary items with you to ensure a more enjoyable stay. - There's no soundproofing at all, so you can hear conversations and doors opening in common areas. - (Of course) there are no room slippers, and the bathroom floor can be slippery when wet. Bring your own if you need them! - There's no heating or air conditioning. Bring a hot pack in the fall or early spring. Summer and winter may be unavailable. - The breakfast is simple, focusing on homemade baked goods, with few warm options like egg dishes. However, the cappuccino was delicious. - Don't expect luxurious antiques; this is a simple and clean old farmhouse B&B. - You'll need to carry your luggage up the stairs for the second-floor accommodations. - Nevertheless, the stunning views of Tuscan fields, the starry night sky on a clear day, the rustic yet cozy restaurant, and the friendly host were all wonderful.

My wife and I did a cooking class with Lorenza for our honeymoon at Casa dell'Abate Naldi, her personal and historic residence in nearby San Quirico D’Orcia. It was one of the top highlights of our honeymoon. Lorenza is a special person and we felt fortunate to spend time with her. She welcomed us as guests into her home and provided a hands-on, authentic Tuscan cooking experience. The food was incredible and we learned a lot about pasta and cooking in general. Lorenza is a pro chef and cooks beautifully. Beyond that, she is kind, caring, and giving of her time. We hope to see her again and highly encourage you to visit her beautiful home for a cooking class. Grazie mille Lorenza!

The accommodations were clean and the management's care and dedication were evident. The dog was so sweet, and I enjoyed our morning walks with him. The food here was the best I've ever had. I liked it better than any other restaurant.

We celebrated our wedding at Il Rigo, and it was magical from the very first second! You can feel the passion Luisa and Matthias put into the entire concept at every turn. The food, the flowers, the entire atmosphere—we're still completely overwhelmed.

We stayed at Agriturismo Il Rigo and had a wonderful time! The rooms are clean and welcoming, the food excellent, and the view of the Tuscan hills is truly breathtaking. Special thanks to the staff who, with great attention, prepared a different breakfast every morning to accommodate my food intolerances. An authentic and relaxing place: we'll definitely be back!

Beautifully located in the Tuscan hills, Agriturismo Il Rigo offers stunning views, authentic and stylish accommodation, and excellent food. Everything was clean and comfortable, and the staff were exceptionally friendly. A truly memorable stay – we would love to come back!

We were wedding guests and had a breathtaking time here! All the staff and the owners of the farm were incredibly friendly, the atmosphere was warm and hospitable, and the rooms had a unique charm. We especially loved the location in the middle of nature, the stunning 360-degree view, and the quality of the food at every meal. Thank you for the wonderful days and your hospitality!

It was a beautiful location with a stunning view. The food and service were excellent. The breakfast buffet had a fantastic selection. Overall, it was a wonderful stay.
