La Cantina Relais - Fattoria Il Cipresso

This lovely farmhouse estate is perfection. Beautiful, spacious rooms, impeccably decorated in rustic farmhouse style but with modern amenities. Grounds are magnificent and the pool area is a welcome respite after traveling all day. Dinner and breakfast outside in the garden is heaven - such beautiful surroundings and a dreamlike atmosphere. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. The town of Arezzo is about a 20 min drive and definitely worth it for the amazing medieval architecture, spectacular views and great dining and shopping. We only stayed one night due to our travel schedule and this certainly was not long enough. 2 minor detractions - pillows seemed thin and past their prime, I really love a fluffy hotel pillow! And one tip on your room stay in the hot weather, if you want to be in air conditioned comfort, turn it on as as you arrive and let it run all day - it takes a LONG while to cool the room down since it uses radiant cooling (under the floor) technology. Ours was not nearly cool enough and we opted to open the windows instead but were treated to dogs barking at a neighboring property most of the night. All in all, still a 5 star stay.

You will struggle to find a better place to spend a relaxing holiday....anywhere! The rooms are spacious and very comfortable with all the small details you would hope to find in a luxury hotel. The staff are exceptional - kind, friendly and attentive (but not intrusive). The restaurant is a real treat with a compact but outstanding menu of expertly prepared, almost exclusively home/farm produce served in a romantic setting.

My husband and I spent four beautiful nights at this charming inn. Everything from the people to the location to the accommodations the food and wine completely exceeded all expectations. Breakfasts were a work of art, dinners were unrushed and meticulously prepared. Highly recommend - I pray that we can return again someday.

What a lovely place… The “relais” belongs to a farm where they produce almost everything themselves: wine, olive oil, fruit, vegetables and meat. The food for both dinner as well as breakfast is all “kilometre zero”, meaning from the own property, except for the cheese. The quality and taste of it is very high. You feel privileged when the weather is good, but not good enough to eat outside, when you are seated in a greenhouse (the old lemon house) to enjoy your breakfast or dinner. The rooms are well equipped, with a traditional look and feel but with modern comfort. Comfortable beds, a good shower and comfy sofa, it is all very pleasant. The staff is friendly and so is the property owner Alberto. Typically, I always have some critical remarks to make, but here it felt hard, if not impossible. This place is really recommendable for a holiday under the Tuscan sun.

A wonderful stay with fantastic food and a super service. A family "farm" in the 4th generation. Spacious roms and outstanding athmosphere in beautiful Tuscany. Our car broke and Alfonso - the owner - brought the car to MB and it was returned the same day!

Great location, spacious comfortable room, outstanding breakfast. Probably the best we have experienced. The staff was friendly and very helpful. All in all a very enjoyable experience. Try the house wine. With good weather, the various outside seating areas and the pool must be very enjoyable.
