THE ESTATE

An 18th-century farmhouse on the hills between Volterra and Lajatico, where every day begins with the right light.

Welcome to Poderino Il Sole, a place out of time in the heart of the Tuscan countryside.
In a dominant position and surrounded by wheat fields, olive trees and a regenerating silence, our 18th-century stone farmhouse has just been carefully renovated to offer an authentic, elegant and deeply personal welcoming experience.
Everything here speaks of nature, light and beauty: the windows frame the landscape like a painting, the sunsets fill the air with stillness, and the panoramic pool, generous in size and west-facing, reflects the last rays of the sun every evening as in an enchanted mirror of water.
We are a charming B&B in Tuscany, TV-free but connected to what really matters: environment, time and you.

Each room is named after a plant that grows among the paths on the property. From the romantic “Ginestra” (Broom) with its four-poster bed, to the refined “Alloro” (Laurel) with a view of the Apennines), to the panoramic “Vite” (Vine) overlooking Volterra.

Spaces designed to welcome, inspire, and regenerate: no TV, lots of natural light, refined fabrics, Tuscan scents, and a homemade breakfast to be enjoyed on the terrace next to the pool or in the internal lounge.

HOST

A new root planted in the sun to offer authentic hospitality.

We are Monica and Francesco, and this is our dream come true.
After years of living in the city and working in a company, we chose to change it all: today we welcome you to our charming B&B in Tuscany with passion and simplicity.

We like to take care of your well-being and pamper you at breakfast, tell you about the territory, offer real experiences and take you by the hand as you experience the slow pace of this land.
With us there are also Luna and Ombra, our four-legged companions.

Welcome to our home!

TV-free, nature full.
Let the sun in.

At Poderino Il Sole you won’t find TV. And you won’t miss it. The sky changes color every hour, the hills are tinged with gold at sunset, and the most important connection is not the Wi-Fi (which anyway reaches everywhere, even in the pool), but the one with yourself and a wonderful landscape.

Our farmhouse is in a dominant position, isolated but central, about 6 km from Lajatico. Here you need your own vehicle to get around but we guarantee you won’t want to leave easily. You will feel suspended, as if inside a painting. And perhaps, when you leave again… you will find yourself searching, in every silence, for the echo of that slow breath that you have rediscovered here.

Poderino Il Sole.
Where time becomes precious.
