House hotel
We Made Reservation for dinner and it was delicious, the owner cook and served to us. Wines are great! Room was a little bit small for 2 adults and 1 kid, no TV and you have to take a few stairs to get to your room. Rooms are clean and service perfect. During winter you cannot be outside, the best option is to drive to the town.

Fulvio was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable and helpful in directing us to parking and restaurants. He prepared and served gourmet meals. His knowledge of cooking and food preparation was outstanding. I recommend that anyone who stays here reserve at least one night for dinner. You will not be disappointed.

One night of joy
We are on a roadtrip through Tuscany and sadly could only stay one night. Our room was super comfy with a lovely Tuscan villa feel. A beautiful view out towards San Gimignano. We didn't have breakfast but had a delicious coffee made for us which was had in our room. The added bonus of being able to buy some delicious Olive Oil that was locally produced on their farm. Would definitely stay again.

Authentic
Our 4 night stay at Il Vicario turned out to be the highlight of our recent 10 day trip to Italy. After manic Rome the clichéd Fiat 500 drive from Florence to Il Vicario hinted at the magic we were about to experience. Each twist of the Tuscan road presented a postcard worthy view of the countryside that took our breath away. The reward at the end of this journey was the gem, Il Vicario, nestled in the shadow of San Gimignano between working vineyards and olive groves. The old vicary has been beautifully transformed by Fulvio and his niece Katia into a neat and charming bed and breakfast that retains its Tuscan character and style. Fulvio’s extensive knowledge of the region made for the perfect day trips. The cooking class with Katia instilled in us the knowledge and appreciation of Italian cooking and is a must. Amazing and genuine hosts coupled with homely accommodation in a beautiful setting makes Il Vicario a must for those that want an authentic Tuscan holiday coupled with great food and wine. Grazie mille per tutto, Fulvio and Katia. We hope to visit again one day.

Lovely stay in the Tuscan hills.
A lovely place in the Tuscan hills away from the crowds of San Gimignano It has lots of character, beautiful outdoor seating, and welcoming hosts. We didn't sign up for the cooking class but those who did loved it and said it was the best meal they had in Tuscany!

Best authentic, Italian experience!!!
If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience...LOOK NO FURTHER!! Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, this b&b truly has everything we could have dreamt for. The owners were outstanding and treated us like we were family. The b&b itself felt so authentic and cozy and it was nice to get out of the busy cities for a few days. The food was impeccable (best we’ve had while on our two week trip), the views were breathtaking, and the cooking class they offer was such a wonderful experience. I can’t say enough great things about this spot. We definitely left a piece of our hearts there!

We were welcomed warmly and immediately felt relaxed. Fulvio and Katia were excellent hosts. It is in a good location for touring and has far reaching, spectacular views of the beautiful countryside from the windows of our spacious and clean, rustic accommodation. There was no air conditioning which we already knew but a fan was placed in the bedroom. They gave us helpful information about how to navigate the roads and places to visit. I also completed a cooking course which I found very enjoyable and informative. The pool area was a little untidy. I would also recommend plenty of bug spray. I always get bitten by water. I would not hesitate to recommend this venue to friends and family and May well go back there again one day.

Fulvio is an excellent host, his hotel is in a beautiful location, very close to San Gimignano. Centrally located between many amazing sights, Fulvio was a charming host who provided outstanding food and wine. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. Will definitely return again soon.

Beautiful villa with top notch service
Il Vicario is a beautiful 17th century villa surrounded by vineyards and a lovely pool. The room was nice and even though it had antiques as furniture, it felt very updated. We woke up to the sound of roosters cockle-doodle-doing. Instead of bothering me, it made me laugh and realize how far out in the country we were. It was very peaceful. The owner Martin was so helpful and offered to help us get a taxi, directions to our next town, printed maps for us, provided a wonderful breakfast and then agreed to mail us some clothing we accidentally left in our room. So service was top notch!! Would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.

2/10 Poor

Disappointing
We didn't take up our reservation as Il Vicario was unkempt, unwelcoming. It didn't look anything like its photos. Courtyard, kitchen and elsewhere messy and shoddy. Pool area unloved and alive with ants. Someone appeared briefly then didn't return despite us calling for them. Also the house is attached to a builders yard with lorries backing into it. The person we saw briefly didn't seem at all interested in whether we stayed or went. Not a suitable place for a family. We were two grandparents,two parents, and three children. Maybe suitable for backpackers, hikers or young people. We felt there may have been some disruption in the personal or business life of the partners by the state of the hotel.

Stayed at il Vicario for two nights. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. We had an apartment with a separate kitchenette, living and dining area. The view of the Tuscan region is marvelous. Breakfast was served every morning, with a traditional Italian fare of salami, cheese, melons etc. Very quiet, recommend it for couples, families as well as friends traveling together.
