Villa Il Poggiolino

Built around 1750 as the private country residence of a noble Florentine family — a date still carved into an ancient stone well on the grounds — **Villa Il Poggiolino** is a place where history and romance meet in perfect harmony. Nestled among seven hectares of olive groves, open meadows and rolling hills, just minutes from Lucignano, the enchanting medieval village known as the pearl of the Val di Chiana, this is Tuscany at its most authentic and unspoiled. | When you choose Villa Il Poggiolino, the entire estate is yours. No other guests, no shared spaces — just you, your loved ones, and one of the most beautiful corners of Italy. The villa's nine elegantly appointed bedrooms accommodate up to 20 guests on-site, while the nearby sister property Tenuta di Mezzo adds a further 8 beds, bringing the total to 28 guests sleeping within the estate. A minimum stay of three nights transforms your wedding into a true celebration weekend — arriving, exploring, feasting, and dancing together across several golden Tuscan days. Guests experience more than just a wedding day — they experience the rhythm and beauty of Italian living. Mornings begin with soft light over the hills, afternoons unfold with wine, laughter, and slow moments in the garden, and evenings become magical celebrations filled with music, candlelight, and unforgettable memories. The estate offers extraordinary flexibility for both ceremony and reception. Say your vows outdoors in one of several breathtaking settings: beside the sparkling pool, in the open meadow with panoramic views of the Tuscan hills, or beneath the silver canopy of centuries-old olive trees. For indoor celebrations or evening receptions, the villa's elegant salon hosts up to 50 guests with timeless charm, while the gardens and grounds open up to welcome up to 100 guests under the open sky. The estate's position makes it an ideal base for exploring a part of Tuscany that few tourists ever discover. Lucignano, Cortona, Montepulciano, Pienza and the thermal baths of Rapolano are all within easy reach. Back at the villa, guests can enjoy wine tastings or simply long, lazy afternoons by the pool — the kind of days that become memories. **At a Glance** • Historic estate, built c. 1750 — exclusive private use • 9 rooms, up to 20 guests on-site (28 with Tenuta di Mezzo) • Outdoor ceremonies & receptions: up to 100 guests • Indoor salon: up to 50 guests • Private chef or local catering available • Minimum 3-night stay • Near Lucignano, Val di Chiana — 1.5 hrs from Rome, 1 hr from Florence
