San Gimignano (Siena)
- Traveller rating:
In the farm house English, French, German and Swedish are spoken.
The swimming pool enjoys a panoramic position. Facing south in order to benefit from the sun throughout the day, it was built in a part of the garden overlooking the valley.
While there you can pass the time hiking, horseback riding and cycling along country roads, through forests, villages, archeological sites and rural hamlets. You also can fish in the Farm's pound.
The farm house is 5 Km away from San Gimignano in the centre of an ideal triangle formed by Florence, Siena and Volterra.
Visitors wishing to get to know this part of Tuscany have a wide variety of itineraries to choose from, including visits to the two highly characteristic towns near the farm, San Gimignano and Volterra featuring two extremely varied and contrasting landscapes, ranging from the sunny and luscious Elsa Valley (an explosion of woodland, olive groves, vineyards and fields) to the impressive bare hills in the Volterra area split apart by dry ravines.
Guests can discover the jewels of medieval Tuscan architecture (Siena, Colle Val D'Elsa, Certaldo and Monteriggioni), Florence, Pisa, Lucca, Vinci, the Sienese crete, Chianti classico and the Tyrrhenian coast can reach be visited in a day.
