A most relaxing, realistic and welcoming stay in Tuscany
Didn't want to share this one with anyone, as it will be hard to rebook.... We had 2 great weeks with Barbara and family in their fabulous, spacious villa 5 mins drive from San Gimi. Truly great pool, free melons and honeycomb honey from the property, with lovely home-cured ham and home-pressed oil to buy. Yes, the villa got hot (it was August in Tuscany people!) but once we figured out how to optimise windows for the cool breezes, it was lovely. Besides, just meant we spend more time by the pool working on those tanlines. Waking up to picture-perfect views of those towers 6 kms away, watching wild deer have their breakfast while we had ours and then deciding what to for the day. Siena or Florence? Certaldo or Volterra? Or Chianti? Talking to Barbara and family at sunset, being given fresh eggs (gratis) by Nonna for breakfast the next day. Life does not any get better. Was there a downside? Sure - the toaster was a bit slow, and the charcoal bbq needed a practised hand. That was about the limit of it - not exactly deal breakers :) We will definitely be back. Mille grazie Barbara, ciao!!

Absolutely Beautiful
This beautiful property is a labor of love, hand built by the family and it shows. You couldn't asks for a more incredible location and host. Barbara (host) is friendly and was a real pleasure to talk with. She offers an in-home cooking class and offers a meal service. We took the cooking class and loved it. We made a hand made pasta, a ragu, a very good steak and a delicious Tiramisu. We also took her up on the breakfast option and we loved it. During this stay, our Son took advantage of a beautiful spot on the property to propose to his now fiancée. Lots and lots of wonderful memories made here.

Paradise in Tuscany
Our group of four couples spent three weeks here as part of a month long trip to Italy. The villa was ideal for our purpose of exploring Tuscany's many hill top towns. Only a few minutes from San Gimingnano, it's central to many other towns making day trips very easy. The pictures accurately reflect the property which exceeded our expectations. What made it even better is the personal touch of our host, Barbara, and her family. She was very responsive to any requests and easily accessible for any questions. We did take advantage of several meals prepared by her and the family. Having a candle lit dinner on the outdoor patio is an experience we won't forget and the food, wine (most from their very own farm) was some of the best we experienced; including Milan, Florence, and Rome. You won't be disappointed. The beautiful views from the villa across the Tuscan country side looking at San Gimingnano in the distance are forever baked in our memories. This was a 5+ star experience.

Tuscan Perfection
Our stay at the villa was a highlight of our nearly month-long trip to Italy. The accommodations were perfect; all bedrooms were spacious, the views were outstanding, and Barbara, the host created the best meals we ate in all of Italy. It was a great space to unwind as much as we wanted and to explore nearby towns--Certaldo was a magical place. The villa surpassed all of our expectations!

Ladies at Podere
We were a group of 5 ladies. This villa is very comfortable and met our needs in every way. We organized 2 meals for her to cook as well as the pasta making class. All were delicious, the pasta making class was a fun experience. View of San Gimignano is breathtaking and only 10 minutes away. Even the pool had the perfect view of Tuscany! A amazing vacation in every way. Thank you Barbara, we appreciated everything you did. We will always remember this vacation.
