This was a beautiful place in rolling hills of Tuscany. A perfect place to get away from the noise of city and unwind. Beautiful view from the top of the hill. Friendly service. It was hot the night we were there and there was no fan. We left windows open but there were mosquitoes. Just a little plug in fan would be nice.

Orchedia - not your average B & B. It's better.
Amazing. If you enjoy beautiful surroudings, complete relaxation and friendly people - stay here. The view from every window in this large, charming villa is breathtaking. The staff are wonderful (good idea to brush up on your Italian first!) and friendly. Eat breakfast in the garden while enjoying toast with homemade jam. A wonderful Bed & Breakfast location with your own private area. Great for long stays and children. I would highly reccomend this B&B. The lovely owner will welcome you with open arms and remind you why Tuscany is still the best place to visit. Location close by to Voltarre, Pisa and Siena. Toronto, Canada June, 2011
