Agriturismo Nobile was our favorite of accommodations during our 12 days in Florence and Tuscany for the 3 of us traveling companions. It is a working vineyard with the farmhouse and other buildings renovated as a hotel and rental apartments. The property looks out over the vineyards with Montepulciano’s old city on the hill within view.
Our 2 bedroom apartment (Il Podere) was delightful and well-kept with a small kitchen, dining table, living room, patio and one bathroom with a shower. The large pool was just steps away beyond a gate. We enjoyed the short walk to the main hotel and restaurant building for daily breakfast buffet (very good) and 2 excellent gourmet dinners during our 3 night stay. We were shuttled by car to and from the old city whenever we wanted to explore the historic sights. We were happy to balance sightseeing with relaxation at Agriturismo Nobile. I would highly recommend it for a holiday.
Our only drawback was that we didn’t have a car and getting a taxi from the train station took some effort. Upon departure, the owner helped us by contacting a friend with a taxi who was willing to drive us to our next destination, 1.5 hours away, so we were able to avoid the two train connections plus taxi to our hotel on the other end. There is plenty of free parking at Agriturismo Nobile if you have a car.
