The place is amazing with nice view of Tuscany landscape.. the staff is wonderful and they provide good breakfast. They welcomed us with wine.. overall a fantastic place to enjoy
Super dejligt og familiedrevet agriturismo! Værterne er enormt gæstfrie og søde. God og simpel morgenmad. Fredelige omgivelser! Poolområdet kunne godt trænge til en kærlig hånd fra en gartner. De tilbyder madlavningskursus, som varmt kan anbefales!
Una vacanza all'insegna dell'ospitalità e della cordialità dell'host, sempre gentilissimo e disponibile, per non parlare delle prelibatezze della sua cucina.
Tutto magnificamente stipendio!
Ritorneremo e consigliamo.
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.
Host was very helpful, kind and thoughtful
We dined one night there and it was very good and not expensive.
It was a little remote and took some driving to get too sites and other places to eat
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.
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.
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.
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!
The staff were very friendly and the owner cooked and spent lots of time with the guests. A very homelike setting

Heel goede service, lerker eten, niet erg verzorgd
Bijzonder vriendelijke, hulpzame mensen. Lekker ontbijt. Mooie kamers. Helaas groeit er overal onkruid tussen de stenen, zowel op het ontbijtterras en aan het zwembad. Een verfrissingsblokje in het toilet op de kamer zou aan te raden zijn.
Vi var 4 på rejse og havde lejet to “værelser” som viste sig at være to store lejligheder.
Bedste beliggenhed, dejlige og rene lejligheder og fin kontakt med “receptionisten” som var der efter aftale ifm ind- og udtjekning
Fomos excepcionalmente recebidos pelo Fulvio. Nos sentimos como membros da família. Sorridente e com duas taças de vinho que nos conquistaram nos primeiros minutos.
As acomodações são excelentes quartos personalizados e cheios de charme.
É o meu hotel em San Gimignano.
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.
Made very welcome by the owner and his niece, Fulvio and Katia, very helpful, and met all our needs. Food excellent, cooking class highly recommended. Their knowledge of the Tuscan ares is exceptional and their are very willing to share this. We loved are stay with them and are already planning our next stay at II Vicario.
Relax e cortesia. Una struttura semplice ma accogliente e genuina.
Fulvio sempre disponibile con i suoi consigli e suggerimenti per escursioni nel senese ed oltre. Un luogo ideale per una vacanza di relax nella natura e nell'unicità delle colline toscane.
