Stayed in the room with bunk beds (Torre Ardinghelli)- Had the squeakiest door ever. Also the bathroom door got stuck on the floor every time it opened and shut. The bunk beds were this squeaky metal thing that probably should only be used by under 10 year olds. Think creaky old camp bunks.
Out of soap/shampoo in the shower when we checked in and it took about 25 min to find more. Charge for water (of course) and seemingly no where to fill water bottles in a free way. Strange 2nd level “kitchen” that had signs it was not to use.
Good breakfast. Decent pool (only shaded at end of afternoon). There during a massive heat wave so we appreciated the AC unit. It worked very well.

Il Castagnolo was the perfect quick Tuscan stay for our family. The accommodations are pleasant and comfortable. The pool is cold and overlooks the beautiful countryside, and it’s a very quick ride into San Gimignano town as well as surrounding Tuscan vineyards.

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.

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.

Ficar neste hotel foi uma experiência maravilhosa. O lugar é encantador, com um ambiente acolhedor e cheio de beleza em cada detalhe. A vista é simplesmente deslumbrante e trouxe uma sensação de paz que marcou nossa estadia. A piscina é deliciosa, perfeita para relaxar, e o café da manhã foi excelente, com tudo preparado com muito cuidado. As noites foram tranquilas e silenciosas, e os funcionários sempre gentis tornaram tudo ainda melhor. Foi especial para mim e para toda a minha família. Um destino ideal para quem busca conforto, serenidade e momentos verdadeiramente acolhedores.

Heimreise durch die Toscana

Etwas schwierig zu finden und die Zufahrt könnte wirklich etwas ausgebessert werden. Das Gut/Unterkunft liegt super, nahe zu San Gimignano und bestens gelegen für Ausflüge nach Volterra und Siena. Zimmer sehr speziell im Shabby-Chic Look eingerichtet. (sehr romantisch) Das Frühstück fanden wir aussergewöhnlich gut! Leider Poolpumpe ausser Betrieb, es war so schön und warm, dass wir gerne gebadet hätten. Bequeme Liegen und Tische mit Stühlen waren im Garten zahlreich vorhanden. Würden die Unterkunft wieder buchen.

Per raggiungere l’hotel è necessario percorrere almeno 50 metri su un sentiero non asfaltato con buchi e sassi di grosse dimensioni. Dubito che un’auto sportiva possa farcela… Arriviamo e, a detta della signora che ci accoglie, ci viene data una delle camere più belle. Scopriamo che la colazione non e’ compresa ma io l’ho prenotata e pagata. La trapunta è infeltrita e sporca, l’aria condizionata non funziona (e il convettore e’ pieno di polvere) e troviamo un ventilatore, la tv e’ a tubo catodico con immagini che sfarfallano. Nella prenotazione e’ compresa aria condizionata e tv a schermo piatto. Tutta la camera verniciata in tinta azzurra a coprire il vecchio che sta sotto, compresi interruttori di altra epoca. Il bagno e’ una caporetto! Un portacarta igenica completamente arrugginito, il coperchio del wc vecchio e logoro, il rubinetto del lavandino vecchio e arrugginito. Dato il livello di incuria non ci siamo fidati di un cambio camera e siamo andati via.

Incantevole pausa dalla routine quotidiana. Ho trascorso tre giorni stupendi, qui la parola d'ordine è tranquillità. L'attenzione e la cura per ogni cosa fanno di questa struttura la meta ideale per visitare ogni giorno paesini e borghi della zona, San Gimignano prima fra tutti.
Ringrazio ancora Emilio e il suo cane che hanno saputo essere accoglienti ed ospitali pur essendo entrambi molto pacati e riservati.

Toscansk landidyl tæt på Borgbyen San Gimignano

Hotellet ligger meget tæt på San Gimignano som kan være et spændende sted at besøge en enkelt dag. Selve hotellet ligger på en skråning og der er et flot udsyn over dalen. Der er vinmarker omkring hotellet og den nærmeste nabo har et mindre vinanlæg. Værelserne er enkle men fine. Poolen er ret lille og kan primært bruges til at køle sig ned i. Vi var meget tilfredse med hotellet. Det ligger godt og her kan man rigtig komme ned i gear hvis man gerne vil det.
