Our stay at the Villa was just want we needed and expected. The property is absolutely gorgeous and Luzius was a perfect host (he was very accommodating when we were running very late on the night of our check in. His words "it is your vacation, please just relax" ) He and his staff provided two wonderful Tuscan dinners for our group of 23 and the meals were exactly what we envisioned. We could have stayed here forever and cannot wait until we can stay again (for a wedding possibly???)

This is a beautiful villa in every sense of the word. It has the long drive approach with young cypress on each side. Beautiful shutters protect rooms from the sun and wind. Additionally, there are rolling screens that move into place so you can take in the beautiful property views and have your windows open. The ground floor rooms have very tall ceilings; the walls are thick and will probably help to keep the house cool when the weather heats up. We stayed the last week of April/first week of May and the weather was spotty: overcast, showery and sun. Our host provided us with fire wood and we had lovely fires in the evenings.
The kitchen is massive and well equipped with lots of dish ware (I believe wedding parties have stayed here) and a large, modern stove and refrigerator. Bedrooms are large with nightstands, closets, etc. All rooms have independent, wall-mounted AC/heat units to keep temperatures comfortable.
Outdoors, there is a beautiful pool (unheated) and a stand alone small building with a large hot tub and sauna. Large windows can be pushed open to really enjoy the outdoors.
The property has fruit trees, roses and well-maintained shrubs. Italian landscaping is a bit more casual than, say, in England, so don’t expect manicured lawns - you’re in the countryside! Plenty of seating to eat outdoors or lounge by the pool. There are sheep on the property which can provide fun distraction for children and a nice photo op for the camera bugs in your group.
We arranged for the hostess to serve our family a private dinner in their beautifully sited small restaurant which is also on the property, along the drive before you reach the house. It was a delicious meal!
Bathrooms have dryers. There is a washing machine but no dryer. Laundry lines are provided, fine on sunny days but it may take a couple of days to dry your clothes if it’s overcast.
Bring mosquito repellent as a general rule out in the countryside in Tuscany or Umbria. Or just buy some in your local grocery once you arrive. There are two or three large groceries within about 20 minutes. Lovely hilltop towns (Montepulciano, Orvieto, Cortona, etc) are all worth visiting. Note: many shops are closed on holidays so plan ahead. And DEFINITELY research some wineries for wine tasting. We visited Madrevite and they provided lovely cold cuts, cheeses, olives, etc to accompany our wine tasting.
We loved our stay at Poggio Falcone. Hostess Manuela and her husband were gracious and helpful as was her son, Nicola.

Wir haben einen super Urlaub verbracht. Wir haben das Haus in einem sehr sauberen Zustand vorgefunden. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind sehr gut zu erreichen. Das Haus ist grosszügig geschnitten sodass wir uns auch bei Regen nicht eingeengt fühlten. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Die Ferienanlage liegt sehr idyllisch. Die Räumlichkeiten sind platzmäßig sehr geräumig. Die Einrichtung ist standartmäßig, wenn auch mit sehr vielen Gebrauchsspuren. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, besonders die Lage mitten im "Grünen", umringt von allmorgentlichem Vogelgezwitscher.
