A spectacular place, a very welcoming farmhouse just like its owners, Gianni and Maria, with the friendly Tokyo and the two cats. A perfect place to rest, regenerate, and take beautiful excursions in the surroundings. We will definitely come back.

You can't help but breathe a new, different air at Podere Porcino. An escape from the city to a place where hospitality, care, and simplicity bring you back to the essentials. The bench facing the valley recalls Leopardi's gaze towards the infinite. And so, even poetry. Thank you Maria, Gianni, and Tommaso. Who knows, maybe life will make us meet again.

Podere Porcino is located in a beautiful countryside, extremely quiet and idyllic, yet easily accessible from the highway in 15-20 minutes for travelers like us. You can visit interesting places in the surroundings (Orvieto, Lake Bolsena etc.), unfortunately we didn't have enough time, so we'll have to come back for a longer holiday or similar. Maria, our hostess, was very attentive, friendly and helpful, preparing a wonderful breakfast. The room was nice, quiet and very clean, we slept great there. Our daughter was particularly fond of the dog Tocchio and the three cats, my husband and I really enjoyed the trattoria recommended by Maria. Thank you very much, Maria, for the beautiful and relaxing time we were allowed to spend with you.

An absolutely wonderful place to go back to after tiring days sightseeing and exploring. Situated on the top of a hill with cooling breezes and plenty of shade, it's an ideal spot to stay in during the hot summer months. The owners are also extremely friendly and experts on the area. Breakfasts were homemade and delicious.

Podere Porcino is a lovely property overlooking the valley with a lot of "Tuscan" charme. The apartment I stayed in had everything one would need also for an extended stay. There is a lovely sitting/dining area just outside my apartment. The hosts were very welcoming and made my stay special. The location is great when you are looking for a retreat in the country. It certainly was a reprieve from the hustle and bustle in Rome and Sienna. I would go back there any time.

Un posto delizioso, gestito con capacità dalla signora Maria. Il meraviglioso panorama e la bellezza del casale, insieme all'ospitalità dei proprietari ci hanno garantito un soggiorno davvero piacevolissimo.
Pensiamo di tornarci al più presto.
