The word 'idyllic' comes to mind when trying to describe our holiday at 'Il Vicario'. First of all, the house was as delightful as in the photos on the web site. Our room was simply and tastefully furnished in harmony with the age and style of the house and outside there was plenty of room to be on our own... more

I stayed here with two friends for a short break and we really enjoyed our stay. Fulvio and Katia were very welcoming. The location is great, just a short drive from the town of San Gimignano. The pool is lovely with fantastic views of the town's towers and surrounding countryside. Katia gave us a lesson in Tuscan cooking while Fulvio... more

I stayed at Il Vicario with my husband on our honeymoon. We absolutely loved this place and its generous proprietor, Fulvio. If you are looking for hotel luxury, this is not your place, but if you are looking for a lovely and quaint place to stay in where you will feel comfortable and taken care of, this is the place.... more

We first stayed here in July 2006 while travelling around southern Europe. We loved it so much we couldn't wait to come back again, this time with our friends who had a small toddler. They too were impressed by the picturesque location, the great customer care provided by Fulvio, the fantastic dinners and wines, and Franca's fantastic cakes for breakfast.... more

Fabulous..we became part of the family during our visit!! Fulvio, Franca, and Kathy were delightful, friendly hosts, and the setting is so romantic. It's a five minute drive out of "downtowntown" San Gimignano, with a lovely pool and fantastic views. We decided to participate in a cooking class for lunch one day, and it was a delightful and delicious experience!!... more

We had a great stay at il Vicario. We had difficulty finding it but once we arrived it was lovely. Fulvio welcomed us with a glass of wine,and we relaxed immediately. We were accommodated in the Granary...a large one bedroomed apartment, which we had not expected. Very old, with an uneven floor, but perfectly clean,spacious and comfortable.The surrounding area is... more

During our 3-week tour of Italy, we spent 5 days at Il Vicario bed abd breakfast located in Tuscany near San Gimignano. Our host and owner was very kind, helpful and very knowledgable of the area. He went out of his way to assist us every day of our stay. We enjoyed the peaceful and quiet country side as compared... more

This agriturismo is rather basic. The breakfast is the worst we had in years, unbelieveable. This is not the easiest place to find, but convenient for visiting San Gimignano. more
