  • Peaceful terraced site with spectacular views over Tuscan countryside
  • Siena and Monteriggioni 15 minutes’ drive; San Gimignano 40 minutes
  • Swimming pool and pre-booked meals available; regular buses to Siena
An agriturismo break surrounded by the splendid scenery of rural Tuscany – but in a location that will allow you to get out easily to explore all those pretty towns, cities and villages you’ve seen gorgeous pics of? Agriturismo Il Sambuco has the answer – this peaceful spot is on the edge of the sleepy village of Uopini in the Tuscan hills, with lovely views all around. It’s all run on sustainable lines, and has pitches scattered across terraces among olive trees to give everyone the best possible backdrop. All of that means this place has a wonderfully rural atmosphere – and yet it’s only 15 minutes’ drive from Siena, with its famed shell-shaped piazza and handsome medieval architecture. Even better, a bus stop 200 metres from the site has hourly services running to the city. Other top spots like Castellina in Chianti and San Gimignano are also within striking distance here – and even Florence is doable, as it’s about an hour’s drive away. In between all those urban adventures, you’ll be able to explore the local landscapes by hitting hiking and bike trails or visiting vineyards. If your idea of Tuscan heaven is lazing by the pool, well, you can do that too, as the site’s swimming pool is available between the hours of 9am and 6pm. Barbecues are welcome on the pitches, but as this place is an agriturismo you can also pre-book tasty and healthy meals made with zero-mile produce from the vegetable garden. Other facilities on site include wifi, hot showers and a chemical disposal point, plus a dog park for your four-legged pals to have a run around.

What customers say

Nestled among olive trees, this site boasts a lovely natural setting and tranquil vibe. Visitors liked the location, restaurant food, and friendly staff. However, sanitary facilities were often noted as old, basic, and poorly kept, with issues like missing toilet seats and paper. The pool's distance, access, and condition were also significant drawbacks for many.

Liked Die Übernachtung im Olivenhain, wenn freie Plätze verfügbar sind, ansonsten auf dem an der Straße befindlichen Camper-Stellplatz.
Das Personal war sehr nett, jedoch teilweise nicht (wie versprochen) verhandlungsfähig in englischer Sprache.

Disliked Ja, es gibt Bushaltestellen in der Nähe, ABER der Zugang zu diesen erfolgt über eine sehr vielbefahrene Straße OHNE Fußweg. Die Toiletten- und Duschsituation ist ausbaufähig. Kein Toilettenpapier, keine Seife, keine Klobrille (jedoch typisch für Italien).

From the manager: Gentile cliente, siamo dispiaciuti il soggiorno non sia stato di suo gradimento. Le fermate dell'autobus si trovano a circa 200 metri dal nostro agriturismo e purtroppo non è colpa nostra se bisogna attraversare una strada abbastanza trafficata senza marciapiede per circa 30 metri, ma del comune. Riteniamo inoltre che i servizi igienici siano perfettamente consoni al prezzo proposto, e oltretutto vengono puliti e riforniti due volte al giorno. Nonostante ciò è possibile che sapone e carta igienica possano comunque finire prima del previsto, specie nei momenti di grande affluenza, ma siamo disponibili a rifornirvela se ci viene segnalato.
Cordiali Saluti, Il Sambuco

Liked La proximité de Sienne si on a vélo ou scooter ( je n’ai pas utilisé le bus )
C’est calme si vous êtes en bas sauf les coqs le matin à 6 h

Disliked Emplacement assez sommaire surtout pour les campings cars
Les sanitaires auraient besoin d’une remise au goût du jour
Restaurant qui reste un dépannage sympa

From the manager: Gentile cliente, la ringraziamo e ci dispiace che il soggiorno non sia stato interamente di suo gradimento. Ogni piazzola dei camper e delle tende è fornita di elettricità e acqua potabile. Nella nostra struttura sono inoltre presenti cestini dell'immondizia e punti per gli scarichi delle acque chimiche. Riteniamo che i servizi igienici, seppur non perfetti, siano consoni al prezzo da noi richiesto per la sosta. Cordiali saluti, Il Sambuco.

From the manager: Gentile cliente, ci dispiace per il disguido creatosi al check out. La corrente elettrica è stata tolta a tutto il paese per un guasto non dipeso da noi. I servizi igienici sono funzionali per il prezzo proposto. Cordiali saluti.

Liked Dieser Platz ist in der Umgebung von Siena wohl unschlagbar! Mitten im Olivenhain ohne störende Beleuchtung oder unnötigen Schnick- Schnack ist alles geboten, was man braucht. Sehr nette Gastgeber, sehr gutes Essen und zusätzlich Köstlichkeiten aus der Region. Und zum Glück dank der sehr einfachen Infrastruktur auch nicht besiedelt von den üblichen Wohnmobilmonstern.
Guter Ausgangspunkt für einen Besuch in Siena. Bushaltestelle ganz in der Nähe.

Disliked L'attente au restaurant !

From the manager: Gentile cliente, siamo dispiaciuti che il soggiorno non sia stato interamente di suo gradimento.
Il team del ristorante cerca sempre di soddisfare tutti i clienti nel minor tempo, ma nei periodi di grande afflusso non sempre è possibile e ci scusiamo, cercheremo di migliorare. Le piazzole per i camper vengono curate da manutenzione periodica e l'acqua ha prezzi variabili se comprata al ristorante durante la cena poiché include i costi del servizio, o se comprata al bar durante la giornata e portata al camper o alla tenda. Per quanto riguarda il prezzo proposto, riteniamo sia molto competitivo per i servizi offerti, includendo bagni pubblici, elettricità, acqua potabile, scarichi e utilizzo della piscina.
Cordiali saluti, Il Sambuco.

From the manager: Gentile cliente ci fa piacere che la piazzola vi sia piaciuta , ma questo non è bastato.
I bagni vengono puliti due volte al giorno dal nostro staff, le luci nel corridoio iniziale non possiamo metterle per via delle camere adiacenti. Ci dispiace se il nostro sito non vi è piaciuto.

Local attractions

Siena (15 minutes’ drive) surely has to be your first stop – exploring the Piazza del Campo, climbing the Torre del Mangia and visiting the cathedral and Pinacoteca Nazionale. San Gimignano (40 minutes), a hilltop town known for its numerous towers, is often next on the list – or perhaps the lesser-known (but still lovely) Monteriggioni (15 minutes). In fact, there are lots of fabulous towns and villages around here to visit – each with their own character. Wine-producing Castellina in Chianti and the ‘town of crystal’ Colle di Val d’Elsa (both 20 minutes) are a couple of the better-known options, but stops in smaller places often bring rewards of good food, local wine and scenic views. If you have a bit more time, plan days out in Florence and Volterra – both are around an hour’s drive away and full of great things to see and do.
