Agriturismo Paradiso♡

True experience of Tuscany.

10.0

Argriturismo Paradiso is truly the most authentic experience of rural Tuscany. Fabio and Maria are the most welcoming of hosts and provide excellent service. The rooms are beautifully presented and are truly an extension of their beautiful home. The food is excellent at both breakfast and evening meals with a great choice. There is a very generous pool to cool down in, sun loungers and table tennis. The location gives very easy access to Asciano and connects well to drive to Siena. The views from the house are truly stunning. Highly recommended!

Truly excellent

10.0

What a lovely place to stay! A real sense of welcome; Fabio is always welcoming and helpful, and there is a feeling of being genuinely cared for. We had six nights here in late September - outside the main season but still warm enough to swim in the pool and - apart from one very wet night - to have dinner on the terrace with views of the countryside and the glorious sunsets. We were in the 'Blu' apartment (two bedrooms), which is upstairs and has a small balcony - big enough for two to have breakfast on. If you're looking for a modern hotel-style standard room this isn't it - but if you want somewhere comfortable, homely and spotlessly clean, with a definite charm, then it's lovely. Just one note for the English: there's no electric kettle - but you can boil water for tea on the stove. Dinner was available every night, and we took full advantage of it. The food is excellent, home-cooked and Tuscan - and very reasonably priced; the menu changes gradually day to day. The house wine complements the food well; if you can't finish a bottle one night it's there for you again the next; and if you order by the glass, the glasses are large! And for dessert, don't miss the Tiramisu, or the Cantucci e Vin Santo! Asciano is worth wandering through - there's a car park on the road in and a tourist info point and museum just up from the ancient gate near that carpark. The museum is worth a visit - it's spread over several floors. The tourist office can give you a map of Asciano with points of interest marked. We also visited Montalcino, Montepulciano, and the Abbazia di Monte Oliveto Maggiore, all within very easy travelling distance. We'd already been to Siena, but if you haven't been there, it's also easy to get to. We're hoping to be back again another year!

Still our favorite Tuscan “home away from home”

Peaceful, beautiful, and run by the finest couple you will ever meet, Fabio and Maria Teresa Rughi, Agriturismo il Paradiso is the perfect base camp for our explorations of Tuscany. Located in Asciano at the center of the triangle formed by Siena, Montalcino, & Montepulciano, it is clean, comfortable, and relaxing with an excellent pool and nice nearby hikes through the Tuscan countryside. Plus, there is an inexpensive train from Asciano to Siena, which is a great way to experience that wonderful city without dealing with parking hassles. The breakfasts & dinners at Paradiso are amazing as Maria Teresa is a superb chef. She & Fabio (a true gentleman) are warm, friendly, & bend over backwards to make us feel at home during our stay. On this trip, my brother and I picked up a virus and Maria Teresa and Fabio took great care of us while we recovered. It is this level of kindness, along with all the other excellent features of Paradiso, that keeps us coming back every year to our Tuscan "paradise."

Sweet

We booked this room for 2 nights to be near Siena for a 1-day trip. We got the pink (literally) room and it was spacious. However, thin walls between the bathrooms to the next room. The location is pretty good and the house invites to relax. We also took a dinner on the first night since it was late and of which we didn't know what to expect, but the appetizer, first plate, second plate and dessert with a wine was very good. The breakfast was full and had many sweets.

Nice place

8.0

The place is really nice with beautiful swimming pool. The thing that we do not like is that our room has a big window but you can't open it. Same problem with the window in the bathroom, I suggest to place at least a vent. The breakfast deserves the price. We do not appreciate the dinner, too expensive for an "agriturismo", especially because you have no choice.
