Anyone have experience with booking through Agriturismo.net?

I have my eye on a place outside of Siena near Monteriggioni: http://www.agriturismo.net/monteriggioni-515/index_eng.html

But I don't see any actual name of the place or address to find the exact location. So I can't search for other reviews or feedback on this place. Am I missing something? Are these listings exclusive?

thanks

Hi Bryan,
the point is that the site charges a commission to the agriturismo for every booking so they do not want you to be able to contact the agriturismo directly...
From an innkeeper's point of view, I don't like my guests not to have a direct contact with me and not even know my name (and not being able to read reviews - good or bad). So I prefer other ways of advertising my place.
From a guest's point of view I think that the direct contact is also to be preferred (sites like agriturismo.net are not agents and will not have their people there to meet you and solve your problems if you have any with the innkeepers), but agriturismo.net has been working for quite a long time and I haven't heard anything against them....
Have a great holiday!

This is the link to the webpage of the Monteriggioni Agriturismo you had your eye on!
THey are good at hiding the identity of the places that they advertise but I'm better at spotting them!

Bryan, coincidently just happened to be looking at an agriturismo web site today that is in the same area. It was referenced in a newsletter that I got and sounded interesting. Check out Antico Uliveto. I noticed that rooms have the same name and several of the pictures are the same so I think it might be the agriturismo you are interested in.

Hi Giulia. I see we came to the same conclusion.

Try to find the same property on Agriturismo.COM - Monteriggioni

This site does put you in direct contact with the owner of the property and many times shows a link to the property's own website.

Wow, that was fast.

Thanks very much all.

You're welcome!
The trick to find direct contact with such places is to google some weird word that they have in their description or whole phrases (people usually use the same text for all or various websites entries!).

same for www.agriturismo.it

Giulia, that was a great trick, thanks!
