Thi turned out to be a happy mitake. Your ad for the hotel did not mention that it is located 10+ km from the town of Montepulciano. The hotel i also more than 2 km from the Montepulciano railway tation (which, by the way, no one tells you that it is ALSO more than 10 km from the actual town of Montepulciano. Anyway, I w3as very fortunate to meet ome very nice people who had a car, and were kind enough to drive me to the town & back. The hotel is in a very tranquil rural area, and ha a mall bar and a popular (with locals) restaurant. The food is 'home made' and EXCELLENT. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. Not too much English, though.
