The farmhouse PODERE CUNINA is a farm-holiday location within this system of architectural and landscape recovery that fully respects its environment. Traditional materials typical of the area, sourced via accurate and detailed research, were used for the renovation.

It is equipped throughout with quality, antique furniture, fitted with all modern comforts, with maximum level certification regarding safety and energy saving (underfloor heating via geothermal system, thermal insulation, pool).
The location of the agriturismo is perfect. Minutes from charming Buonconvento, and less than 30 minutes from multiple other beautiful Tuscan hilltop towns like Montalcino(which can be seen from the house),Siena Pienza, Montepulciano, S.QuiricoThis makes relaxing day trips possible and still allows time to return to enjoy Podere Cunina. The family has done an amazing job restoring this property and it's location is breathtaking. This makes relaxing day trips possible and still allows time to return to enjoy Podere Cunina. The grounds are well landscaped with natural herbs everywhere, which were used in the cooking class.
We live in the Crete Senesi and the Val d'Orcia lans, just South of Siena. They are the best typical tuscan landscapes! (world heritage under the protection of UNESCO with the Val d’Orcia)

Paradise in the Tuscan hills
We stayed for five nights in July 2024. We were very comfortable despite 40 Celsius every day. The accommodation was well-appointed and had everything we needed. The scenery was breathtaking! I found myself taking the same photo under different light—so very enchanting. If you are independent and don't need to be catered to, are willing to pick up groceries and cook, you will be happy. The pool is larger than one might find in other locations. House rules ensure guests respect the space, one another, etc. If you're looking for boisterous days by the pool, this is not the place. Being in a quiet place is super peaceful - a bit unsettling but incredibly wonderful if you are a city person! There was no traffic noise besides the occasional tractor doing its thing from a distance. Excellent wine region (Brunello is 10K away near Monticello) and lovely restaurants in Buonconvento and surrounding towns. An easy train ride from Buonconvento to Siena or Firenze, etc. We will return!

We had an absolutely amazing stay in Tuscany! The property is even more spectacular than the photos, a truly relaxing holiday! The apartment was so historic, yet with modern conveniences, really exceptional and we would highly recommend to anyone! The owners are wonderful and very accessible anytime.

Another wonderful stay!
This was our second stay at Podere Cunina and was simply wonderful - again! The property is STUNNING with magical views of both sunset and sunrise each day. As a flower lover, I absolutely love all the diversity of the landscaping - everything was in bloom and beautiful! The hosts are so lovely - with warm greetings and advice. It’s a great middle point to visit all of Tuscany. Really gives you the feel of living the Italian villa lifestyle. We hope to be back soon!

Beautiful place to stay in the heart of Tuscany
Sylvana and her family’s property were a great place to stay for our trip to Tuscany. Centrally located and surrounded by beautiful views everywhere. Our only problem was we wished we had stayed longer. Their hospitality was great and we were only a half hour drive to several other beautiful cities. Highly recommend!

Stunning Tuscan apartment
This is a romantic, serene and gorgeous property! The gardens are absolutely breathtaking - so many different plants. We arrived just as the sun was setting and what a sight to behold! Our hosts were just lovely and we had everything we needed in the apartment; kitchen with all the amenities and goodies. Large bedroom with a view of the countryside from the spacious and very comfortable bed. The pool was so inviting - we so potent our last day lounging here - just spectacular. Easy 15 minute drive to the stunning fortressed town of Montalcino with Brunello wine being the star - truly amazing!!! Siena half hour away - this is a lovely area to stay as you’re so central to so many medieval towns. Absolutely loved our stay and the most gracious hosts! Thank you 😊

Fantastic property
We had a wonderful stay at Podere Cunina. Silvana and Giorgio could not have been more welcoming. The location cannot be beaten. Views for miles around including Montalcino in one direction, and even as far as Sienna in the opposite direction. The landscaping has been thoughtfully planned to give privacy but also to provide beautiful plants and trees that were teeming with birds and butterflies. The pool area is secluded but, again, has majestic views of the surrounding countryside. The property was the perfect location for exploring Tuscany and made for a very relaxed and enjoyable vacation.

Our Dream Place
FARMH. PODERE CUNINA was amazing! The hospitality, the view, the room, everything was so perfect that we were simply blown away. We are so happy that we took Marcello's cooking class too. We learned so much from him about the local cuisines and traditional Tuscany cooking. The best part was that we ate the food we cooked with his family after the class. We will never forget the beautiful time we had at Podere Cunina and can't wait to go back there. We highly recommend this place to anyone who dreams of Tuscany!

This was absolutely a dream place to stay! Sylvani spent a lot of time with us when we arrived and made us feel so welcome! She and her husband have built a very special place for travelers to stay and enjoy Tuscany. She told us to "not run" in order to really see Tuscany, and we followed her advice and had a fabulous time! I would LOVE to stay there again!!

Excellent villa with great hospitality
My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at the villa. The apartment was spacious and clean with an excellent atmosphere. The location is on a hilltop with panaromic views of the hills and scenery of Tuscany. Sylvanni pointed out that you can even see Siena of in the distance, about 35 kilometers away. We could not have stayed in a better place and we were short drives away from many of the hilltop villages in the area. We highly recommend for anyone who wants to stay in Tuscany not in a downtown area

A little piece of heaven in Tuscany
We rented an apartment for 5 days and wished we had more time to spend here. The central Tuscany location made day trips easy and short drives. Our Hosts Silvana, Georgio, and Marcelo made us feel like family. The apartments are spacious and clean. The surroundings are gorgeous and calming. Silvana provided us with a map of the surrounding towns with recommendations. There is a small town of Buonconvento nearby where we could buy groceries. There is an outdoor fireplace for grilling in the evening. You can see the lights of Siena along the distant hills at night. Siena was about a 40 minute drive away. Most of the other Tuscan towns were within a 1 hour drive. We spent the day visiting wineries and sampling local cheeses. We opted to take the cooking class by Marcelo. He is very knowledgeable and it was a fun way to get immersed in Tuscan culture. The farm has their own working olive groves and we learned quite a bit about selecting the right olive oil. The photos don't do justice to the beauty and tranquility of the property. We hated having to leave. We want to come back and spend more time with the Freddi Family and their wonderful farm. Wish we were there now.

Amazing, glorious, perfection!
We cannot recommend and review the Podere Cunina Farmhouse more! My husband & I recently embarked on a tour of Italy for our honeymoon and booked Podere Cunina for the Siena/Tuscany leg of our trip. The pictures of this place, as beautiful as they are, do not even do the property justice. The sunsets, the views, the amazing pool, it was all utterly perfection. And the family, The Freddi family, are the sweetest & most welcoming folks you will ever meet. We unfortunately did not rent a car (which we highly recommend you do) and the family was so accommodating. We also booked the wine tour and cooking class (separate days) with Marcello the son of owners Silvana & Piogiorgio. Marcello is so knowledgable in so many areas, he took us to some incredible wineries and taught us to cook a delicious 4-course Italian meal. The family sat and ate dinner with us, shared wine, and had a blast. The room itself, the Hedera suite, is located in the back of property so we had much privacy & quiet although I do believe the other suites would have the same as the property is up on a hill. We had a full kitchen equipped with all we needed to cook meals. Laundry, television, dining table, comfy bed, beautiful shower/bathroom. This room would also be perfect for a family or two couples! We will definitely be coming back (hopefully soon) to visit this incredible property and sweet family :)
