The Experience

Meals in the big, beamed dining room at pretty check-clothed tables are a treat. Irresistible home-grown organic produce, 60 local wines to choose from and a gorgeous Tuscan setting. There are two houses on the family farm, named after the stream running through it. Casabianca, reached via a cypress-flanked drive, is ancient and stone built. A vine-covered pergola shades the entrance; beyond the reception area is a courtyard full of climbing roses. The second house, Poggio Bacoca, is about 600 metres away. Once home to the farmworkers, it’s red-brick built and has two sitting rooms and panoramic views. You walk to Casabianca for those wonderful meals. Bedrooms are homely, pretty and inviting; all have embroidered sheets, appealing colour schemes and matching bathrooms. No televisions: it’s not that sort of place. Luisa and Matthias hope and believe that their guests will prefer a relaxed chat over a glass of wine.

Reviews

A lovely stay at Il Rigo, with delicious dinners and breakfasts. All the staff were so friendly and accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the Poggio remote from the main house, as we booked quite late. The room was comfortable, but lacked a view over the sweeping area around, but was not a problem for our 2 night stay. Bathroom was adequate, with a noisy extractor, but easily bypassed using the mirror light - also not a problem. We would definitely return, booking a room in the main house to feel more part of the place. Highly recommend this place & wonderful area!

Viv, Haslemere

Il Rigo was everything we could have hoped for: we were so happy to have booked 6 nights at Il Rigo. Our room was airy, clean and comfortable, instantly relaxing. In a charming blend of old-meets-new, classic details such as traditional ceilings and antique furniture and well kitted out bathrooms. Extra touches included freshly cut flowers and tea making facilities in the lounge. Food and drinks are locally sourced. All the food is of high quality and flavoursome, with fine dining touches in the presentation. For dinner, the lasagne with zucchini flowers and almonds was particularly tasty.

Lovely place to stay. Stayed for 3 nights in the stunning Tuscan countryside. Il Rigo was a perfect base. Great advice for hikes from the farmhouse, we loved the walk to Bagno Vignoni. All 3 dinners were delicious and the suggestions for wine pairings perfect.

Alison, Newport

Il Rigo sits on top of a hill, with cypress trees and great Tuscan scenery making a wonderful setting for a perfect B&B. It is a largely arable farm and the management team (Luisa and Matteu) are generous with their time and helpful advice. Light and airy bedroom with comfortable bed and fresh cotton bedlinen. The fabulous views can be enjoyed from all around the house and it has a very special and relaxed atmosphere. Wonderful dinners in the evening and feasts for breakfast. The produce is all of a high quality and beautifully prepared and presented. We hope to return.

Local points of interest from Luisa Cipolla & Matthias Ruge

  • We are placed in a real postcard! Gorgeous landscapes on the rolling hills of Valdorcia, cypress lines, stone houses! Il Rigo is an authentic photographer paradise with a 360° view!
  • Stay with us for dinner and enjoy fresh, home-made and traditional food. In our family we all love to spend time in the kitchen, preparing genuine treats for our guests. In summer we eat outside, watching the sunset on the hills.
  • Placed in the heart of Valdorcia, Il Rigo is less than 10 min driving from some of the most famous landscape of Italy and very close to some of the most interesting cities of Tuscany.
  • Wine lovers will enjoy our vast wine list and Lorenza's advices for perfect match at dinner. You can discover more about Tuscan wine during a wine tastings among the hundreds of wineries of Montalcino, Montepulciano.
  • Learn how to prepare home-made pasta, traditional family recipes or sour-dough bread during a cooking class with Lorenza or Luisa.
  • From Il Rigo start numbers of walking and biking tracks. You can reach Pienza, San Quirico d'Orcia and Bagno Vignoni. You can even walk the Via Francigena, the medieval pilgrim route.
