Thanks in advance,

Hmmm ! You ceertainly are asking a ton of questions, which begs the question, have you been to slowtrav.com?
That is very difficult to answer since Tuscany is very large and location is the most important criterion. My favorites, considering location, would be:
Locanda Amorosa
Relais La Saracina
Adler Thermae
Castello di Velona

All are south of Siena in the best part of Tuscany. Good luck !

Hi Bob,

Thanks very much, my husband and I are booking flights very soon so I want to finalize my cities as well.

Thanks for your advice, I was leaning towards locanda amorosa!!

This one opened last year and gets rave reviews: www.villabordoni.com - a small converted villa, incredibly luxurious, top-quality in-house restaurant, located in the centre of the Chianti Classico hills.
