Podere Cavalbianco

A fantastic experience in Tuscany under the Sun What can we say except that this family run Italian stay is a masterclass in all things you want whilst experiencing Tuscany. The accommodation is incredible, expansive and extremely artistically and attentively decorated. The hosts Alessandro and Angela were so kind and thoughtful. The venue itself is so peaceful and calming that we really wish we had longer there. It genuinely felt like being with friends and family except in the most incredible setting. So many great touches from the kitchen diner, the infinity pool, the loungers, the sauna with a viewing window, to the gym and more. As soon as you arrive you know you are in for a treat and I cannot recommend this place higher. We cannot wait to return.

Hele lieve behulpzame gastvrouw en heer! Prachtige, superschone kamers! We hebben een avond daar gegeten en dat was een echte aanrader, wat heerlijk en zo gezellig, het stel was erg in de weer om het zo goed mogelijk voor ons te doen! We komen zeker terug!

My wife and I had the privilege of staying at Podere Cavalbianco for a week during their soft opening in 2024. Our experience was incredible. There was nothing even remotely introductory or lacking from our stay with so much attention placed on the many uniquely memorable details… This fully restored centuries old historical estate villa located on a private hilltop property offers exquisite scenic views wherever you are; from the deck of the infinity pool, any one of the historically maintained bedroom windows, the spacious outdoor dining area or from the sauna, the vista is breathtakingly beautiful! We stayed in the Moraiolo Unit that provided us with a spacious bedroom that was completely self-contained with a fully renovated bathroom including a sink (with storage for toiletries) toilet, bidet and glass shower with gorgeous marble tile everywhere. The room itself was quiet and provided excellent Wifi for our evening pic posts or for contacting and communicating with family back in Canada. There have been places we’ve vacationed where heat or air conditioning was a problem and difficult to control, but not here. Our room had its very own temperature control that provided heat or A/C to whatever temperature we desired. Directly outside our room, we had a quaint living room area for chatting, reading, relaxing or watching TV. We were pleasantly surprised to see Cavalbianco branding everywhere; from the monogrammed towels and hangers to the property’s very own brand of olive oil from the olive trees harvested on the property and honey from their bee hives. It turns out that both the branding and logo for Cavalbianco were created by Alessandro, our host and property manager who was an animation artist and supervisor in Canada before moving to Tuscany. Nice touch! Alessandro’s wife Angela was the other super-attentive and gracious host we spent time with during our stay. Her attention to detail and client comfort is ‘next level’. From the moment we came out of our room in the morning, we felt like VIP. The conversation was always cordial, sincere and informative. Any question was answered with a level of detail that only someone with a genuine passion, respect and appreciation for Tuscan living could provide. Having said that, there was no language barrier at all because Alessandro and Angela lived and worked in Toronto, Canada for many years before moving back to Tuscany so they are fluent in both English and Italian. Breakfast was always served in the main / communal dining room area with choices of croissants, yogurt, fruit, coffee and tea. On one of our mornings, we had the incredible pleasure of meeting the owners of the property Franco and Adele who shared so many wonderful memories with us about the origins of Cavalbianco not only as a property, but as a historical passageway that was used by likes of nobility, by religious figureheads while being escorted by Roman soldiers, and a road that was often travelled for religious pilgrim

My wife and I came here as part of our honeymoon, and we truly did not want to leave. Nestled in the hills of Tuscany, this is the sort of scenic getaway you only see in pictures or movies. It is a beautiful property, and your room will transport you to a different time and era. It is a warm and welcoming stay. Nearby, there is much to explore. Towns like Monte San Savino, Siena, and Cortona, to name a few, promise even more to see and do during your stay. Between the sights, the gastronomy, and the people you meet along the way, every spot has something to offer. Alessandro and Angela are the consummate hosts. The beauty and comfort of our stay here were punctuated by their hospitality and helped make this a trip we won't soon forget. Booking your stay at Cavalbianco will not disappoint. Grazie mille!
