We only stayed two nights, but it felt like we were in a movie!
The room is spacious and very comfortable. The entire property is wonderful and very tasteful. However, the Hotel has enormous potential yet to be explored...
The weather wasn't fantastic, but we managed to stretch out on the pool chairs during the afternoon and it was really nice.
We felt at home! A very familiar environment and ideal for those who want to experience a "family home"!

A Tempting Tuscan Sun
San Gimignano, with the Italian sun glistening intently on its 14 remaining towers, cuts a dramatic figure from its position high on a Tuscan hill overlooking vineyards. However, it is when you get up-close-and-personal with this medieval-walled city and crane your neck to the blue sky that you truly appreciate its mesmerising beauty.
If you take away the swarming summer tourists circling the piazzas of San Gimignano, then this city offers you a wonderful trip back in time. The main square, Piazza della Cisterna, is surrounded by Romanesque buildings and Piazza del Duomo features Torre Grossa, the city’s tallest tower.

A trip to Tuscany must include San Gimignano! Highly recommend for its medieval charm, spectacular views and delicious food. It really feels like stepping back in time. It’s not public transport accessible and if you have limited time, hiring a car is the best way to go. Ample public parking is available as well.
We visited around late October so it wasn’t too busy compared to summer time and the weather was perfectly warm during the day and mild around dinner time. Light jacket only. It’s a photographer’s delight as there’s always a scenic opportunity as we turn a corner.
From SG we drove to Siena, another stunning city close by and not to miss! For lunch we were lucky enough to stumble upon a small multi-Routard recommended resto and it seriously did not disappoint. It’s called Osteria Nonna Gina di Lella e Dado. Some of the best pasta we’ve had in Emilia Romagna is here.
Also don’t miss the gelato at Gelateria Dondoli, they’ve won multiple awards and offer unique gelato flavours you really have to try.

If you’re in Tuscany, you have to visit San Giminiano.
If you’re in Tuscany, you have to visit San Giminiano. The city centre has a very special architecture and a lot of small shops and wineries. It’s the perfect place to spend a few days with your spouse. We had a wine tasting at Marronaia Winery, close to the city and we enjoyed it, but next time I would also try another winery, like Tenuta Torciano, which we tried a few months earlier. We ate a fantastic meal at ristorante Fuoriluogo, which I recommend strongly. I recommend staying as close as possible to the city, it’s a nice feeling that you can walk while admiring the sights.

I can't describe it, you have to be there, you have to see this miracle.
I recommend parking lots number 3 and 4, there is always space, the price is reasonable and you only have to walk for a few minutes, and there is also an elevator.

It is one of the most unique destinations in all of Europe. San Gimignano is a must-visit when in Tuscany. Its medieval appearance whisks you back in time and one can easily transform the tourists to locals bringing their food to market. High-quality restaurants and a world-champion gelateria, what is not to fall in love with. Leave your healed shoes at home and wear comfortable footwear as the streets, side streets and shops are far from smooth, but this is just part of the experience

We stayed in late September, the weather was amazing and the city not to crowded. I would fully recommend staying in the exceptional hill top town which in the evenings as the crowds go home is the perfect place to eat and relax.

You can explore the Torre Grossa and a couple of other sites...
You can explore the Torre Grossa and a couple of other sites with one pass, there's excellent pasta (you will smell the ragù while you explore in the afternoon!) and aperitivi for just a few euros, plenty of places to cool off with gelato, and the view over Tuscany from the Torre and the Rocca are spectacular.
The town in miniature is also worth your time. And be sure to have a glass of Vernaccia, the local white wine!
This is one of the most stunning places I have ever been to in my entire life. The views leave you speechless. Serena is kind, informative, and friendly. The apartment is beautifully rustic, warm, and comfortable. The pool is impeccable and much needed on a warm day. The fauna and flora just add to the beauty of the countryside. Conveniently located within 10 minutes of the supermarket and restaurants. You will regret not staying at this beautiful Italian Castle. I would come back to Italy just to stay here! ❤️❤️❤️
Our flight delay into Italy caused us to lose our reserved car. We were informed there's a car shortage so our car was given away and almost no taxi was available either. While lost and exhausted, the kind and generous owner saved us many times for impromptu rides and wonderful care. I told my husband that it felt like you can be lost in Italy and still amongst family. This is so true of this divine Agriturismo. I am already on planning on bringing the entire family back. Grazie Mila.
Set in a tiny adorable hamlet very near to San Gimignano. The family running the establishment very friendly and accommodating. Check-in with a welcoming glass of wine. The apartment was very comfortable for the four of us, with the facilities in the apartment perfectly suited. Position of the hamlet perfect for visiting San Gimignano and the surrounding area. Breakfast in a cozy area in the hamlet served by a combined effort of the family and friends. Breakfast plentiful and varied.
This was the best place we've stayed during our trip to Italy so far. The appartment was very confortable, clean and had everything we needed for our stay in San Gimignano. The location is extraordinary, right on the historic city. It has plenty of natural light and the decoration is very well thought out, giving the guests the feeling of being in an authentic tuscan house. The communication with Brunella was efficient and she is a very nice host. I would definetly stay there again.
This lovely hotel was a highlight of our 14 days in Italy. It and the grounds were gorgeous. The staff were helpful. The breakfast was plentiful. The shower and bathroom were huge. We loved walking in the vineyard. We didn't use the two pools but they were so pretty, as was the landscaping, View was spectacular. Such a gem. I had no idea when I booked how special this pace would be. There's a great private patio and even a chapel.
Fattoria is the most gorgeous property we stayed at in Italy! the whole area is so scenic & the accomodation is absolutely perfect with the best outlook over San Gim. the staff were incredible, the breakfast & hospitality was outstanding! also we dined there & had wine by the pool on 2 out of three nights, highly recommend the chef is amazing, mixing local ingredients with delicious combinations. we wished we stayed longer!
Beautiful accommodation! We absolutely loved this place. From the great staff to the amazing views, this was it. This was the Italy we'd been dreaming of. I practically had to drag my wife away kicking and screaming! The restaurant was great with exceptional views and the pool was nice and refreshing. Definitely give this place a shot when you're visiting Tuscany!
Everything was absolutely perfect! They have the most friendly staff who eagerly greet you with a bottle of wine, snacks & tells you to "relax now". The view from the rooms are stunning & they have an excellent breakfast and response time to requests. It was one of our most special and authentic stays in Italy with a private tour of the winery and wine tasting.
Everything! The people are amazing there, you are feeling like a family member from the arrival until you are leaving. This was the perfect stay in Italy, amazing views from the room, from the terrace (where we got wonderful breakfast and dinner) and from the pool. We really hope to return some day soon! Grazie Mille!!!!
The location is perfect, close to San Gimignano. The staff was amazing and very attentive! It was a very clean and comfortable room. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking and in fact this was one of my favorite places to stay in Italy! Loved the vineyards and olive groves!
Monica and her family are wonderful! In my opinion, it’s always the people that make the experience that much better and memorable. Be sure to have a ‘Nicola Spritz’ in the afternoon or by the pool! Best spritz I’ve had in Italy!
This was the best place we stayed at during our trip through Italy. Everything was fantastic and they were incredible hosts. My partner is a coeliac and they prepared separate gluten free food for her breakfast and dinner.
Excellent location, overviewing the vineyards. You can watch the suns goes down, while sipping a glass of wine in the garden. Very friendly staff, exceptional breakfast - best "corneto"(croissant) eaten in Italy.
Just outside the walls of San Gimignano. A quiet and cozy place to retreat at night! The patio was also beautiful and nice for relaxing. Clara, the host, was extremely kind and hospitable.
The hosts are amazing and super nice! the place is perfect!!! beautiful and clean! there are no such places in Italy. it was a pleasure and we will definitely recommend it.
Good location within a distance walk to San Gimignano, and the staff very helpful especially with the parking. The hotel has an elevator. Nice breakfast
