This place is stunning! Laura looked after us superbly and nothing was too much trouble. The property make their own white wine and olive oil which were delicious. Breakfast offered a good continental selection and the coffee was incredible! Pool was a welcome touch and offered plentiful space to relax and unwind. Our room was a little small and was the basic room. Our friend had a larger room so make sure to check that. It’s only around 12-15 rooms. Main tip is you must have a car! We banked on a taxi from San Gimignano and battled over 4 hours to get one! Ruined the vibe at the start of our break. It’s very remote. Would still highly recommend. We will be back.

Beautiful area not great house to stay at.
The farm house is in a beautiful location. The grounds have a nice pool with comfortable chairs and tables. The room was large however the bathroom is awful and very small, shower in need of repair, toliet so near shower could not sit straight! The breakfast area is nice although the breakfast is very weak, coffee good but not any real choices and they had the same cake out the 4 days we were there for? The owners do not speak any English, we live in Spain so we are ok with the idea that they don't speak our language however it would be nice for just a few words and advice of surrounding area if they are going to run a B&B. There was no access to water after 7PM and they do not leave you any in room, very unusual. Without saying no bar area to enjoy the courtyard or views. I would encourage people to stay in this area as its truly remarkable but we saw so many other choices that looked nicer with more amenities.

Nice hotel in country near San Gimigano - Car only
Very nice country residence, rooms were nice, clean, but a bit cold and no extra blankets. Beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside. Breakfast was great, WiFi was only in the breakfast area but was fast.

Beautiful views
What a lovely location, would thoroughly recommend. It's only a 5min drive to San Gimignano and we found that we could sometimes park for free on the road leading in from the B&B. The breakfast is lovely and you can sit out in the pretty garden and take in the views.
