• Mugur (9/5): -
• Andrea (10/5): - L' appartamento è dotato di ogni confort, camere spaziose e comode. Proprietaria disponibilissima e gentilissima. Anche lo spazio esterno con una bellissima piscina attrezzata è notevole. Nulla
• Laur (9/5): - Foarte bine
• PanD (10/5): - 넓은 포도밭 앞 조용한 숙소였어요. 수영장도 있었는데 추워서 이용할 수 없어서 너무 아쉬웠지만, 너무 예쁜 숙소였어요. 주위에 갈만한 곳도 추천해주시고 너무 친절하게 안내해주셔서 감사합니다. 별도 주차장도 있어서 차로 이용하기에도 좋았어요.
• Ferdinand (10/5): - Eine sehr nette Location in perfekter Lage Es hat alles gut gepasst.
• Beate (9/5): - Sehr schön und optimal gelegen. Die Besitzer sind äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend. Mit dabei ist ein riesiger und gepflegter Pool
• Krisztina (10/5): - Csodálatos helyen, Toszkána közepén, gyönyörű környezetben. Ha tehetjük még vissza térünk.
• Hofenk (10/5): - Top vakantie gehad, Marco en Roberta en haar man zijn super hard werkende lieve mensen! Super schoon en mooi zwembad! Echt top!! Niente!!
• Peter (9/5): Stay was very enjoyable. The apartment is only 5 km away from the beautiful town of San Gimignano. - Very clean, very nice environment, very nice hosts. All in all an excellent stay. Unfortunately, the last night was slightly disturbed by some noise of the neighbours.
• Antje (10/5): - Freundlicher Empfang, zweckmäßig eingerichtet, alles sauber....wirklicher toller Ausblick!
• alice (9/5): de parfaites vacances en famille en Toscane - L'accueil, le logement et la piscine. Nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances en Toscane. La piscine était appréciée lors des fortes chaleurs. A proximité de très belles villes et villages ( San Gimigniano, Sienne, Florence, Certaldo, ...)
• florin (10/5): - totul minunat!
• Saskia (8/5): Aanrader! - Een pittoreske woning met fantastisch uitzicht! Dichtbij San Gimignano. Roberta maakt van ieder ontbijt een feestje (met heerlijke zelfgemaakte producten)! Een aanrader om dit bij te boeken. Tijdens ons verblijf was het weer (nog) niet zo goed. Hierdoor waren we 's avonds binnen. Tip: de ruimte naast de keuken (berging) inrichten als woonkamer, met een comfortabele bank, waar televisie gekeken kan worden.
• Paweł (10/5): - Po pierwsze Roberta to bardzo miła i pomocna osoba. Mieszka w tym samym miejscu, więc szybko reaguje na wszystkie prośby. Upiekła nam nawet pyszne ciasto! Mieszkanie, które wynajmowaliśmy miało dwa pokoje i dwie łazienki oraz kuchnie. Wszystko bylo perfekcyjnie czyste. Mieszkanie bardzo dobrze wyposażone. Było żelazko, deska, ręczniki, mydła, szampony, przybory kuchenne, przyprawy, oliwa, woda i wiele innych. Mieliśmy prywatny parking. Obiekt posiada bardzo duży basen o głębokości od 110 do 190 cm. Można nawet skakać na główkę. Są leżaki i parasole. Z basenu widok na San Gimignano. Obiekt jest położny w pięknym miejscu wśród winorośli. Blisko do San Gimignano i jeszcze jednego miasta, gdzie mozna zrobić zakupy. A wisienka na torcie jest to, że brat Roberty prowadzi w tym miejscu winnicę, gdzie mozna kupić w rozsądnej cenie pyszne wino oraz oliwę z oliwek z ich własnej produkcji. Miejsce przerosło nasze oczekiwania.
• Tomáš (10/5): - Všechno bylo pěkné -
• Cz_marek (10/5): Exceptional - Owner Roberta is willing and friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Both rooms have their own bathroom and bads are very comfortable. The kitchen is full equipped. All of rooms (incl. kitchen) are equipped by aircondition. We appreciated that there was a washing machine. Pool is big and clean, space around pool is equipped by sun lounges, table and chairs. Also there is other outside table and chairs when you want have breakfest or dinner outside on the fresh air. There is a beautiful view of the surrounding nature. Position of accommodation is perfect for bike trip to San Gimignano, Volterra, Gambassi Terme etc. We were really satisfied
• Gábor (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation is in a wonderful landscape, peaceful, tidy, clean and very beautiful. Our host was kind, helpful and flexible. He organized a great tasting program for us, we had a great time. Fortunately, the pool was already working, it was nice to relax by it. Our pet also liked it, like in home. Perfect for exploring the area. None
• Juan (9/5): Superb -
• Mike (10/5): A rural retreat, with a genial host. - We had a sizeable apartment attached to the main house, with a bedroom bathroom and kitchen/ living area which included cooking facilities. Our host was very friendly and helpful with advice on where to eat out. She offered a good choice of breakfast, including home-made cake. We enjoyed staying in this rural location with lovely countryside views and spectacular sunset, as the local town, Certaldo, was not far away, and has an historic hill-top centre which can be reached by a funicular from near to the railway station. This helped us to access plenty of restaurant offerings, although after October in low season, the funicular service finishes early evening.
• Eva (10/5): We had a really nice stay in this large appartement! Thank you for the great care and the good breakfasts! -
• Linda (9/5): We were so grateful to find this place to stay as there had been a problem with the apartment we had booked. The lovely - The property was very clean and well equipped with everything you could need
• Ingrid (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing property with beautiful views . Everything was top notch
• Georgiana (10/5): Great place for enjoying a nice holiday in the beautiful area of San Gimignano. - Location in a beautiful landscape, very quiet and close to San Gimignano Nothing
• Zdenko (10/5): Exceptional - A beautiful house with a dream yard. Marco and Roberta are very kind. The house is located at the top of the vineyard with a beautiful view of the hills, vineyards and olive groves.An excellent position for sightseeing in the whole of Tuscany. Niente.
• Isabella (10/5): Exceptional - Roberta was an excellent host, super friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom was really spacious and well equipped.
• Eva (9/5): Estancia estupenda en azienda fornacelle - Marco ha sido súper amable y la casa estaba impecable
• Duncan (8/5): Beautiful pool with spectacular views. Wonderful host. Very spacious apartment - Location. Pool. Owner. Space Outside chairs not very comfortable
• Maryia (10/5): It's ideal place to stay! Highly recommended! - Roberta is a great host, she helped with all our questions, advised good places to visit. The place is fantastic - very nice room, bed, very clean. Additionally I would admit the view from room - it's amazing! Breakfasts were very tasteful!
• Dalmir (10/5): You will love it. You will wish that you had a place like that, to stay there forever! - We loved the hospitality from Marco, his sister Roberta and the rest of his family. The viewers are astonishing. We enjoyed Marco’s great wines. I can’t recommend more! You won’t regret staying here.
• Tomasz (8/5): Very good - very nice old fashioned small hause located in winery! small problems with internet connection, temporary not working swimming pool
• Diegorogu (10/5): Excellent Place - Confort, Staff, Location, Value
• Ethan (10/5): A tranquil getaway in the Tuscan countryside, not far from San Gimignano - After a hectic week in Rome, Country House Tenuta Fornacelle was just the right place for us to relax in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. Roberta is a wonderful host, very welcoming and attentive to any of your needs. Make sure to try some of their white and red wines and olive oil produced on site! Roberta gave us a tip for a nearby restaurant that turned out to be one of the best dining experience we had in Italy. The nearby town of San Gimignano is a known tourist destination. Although it's certainly beautiful, it's also completely overrun by tourists, even during the shoulder season (we visited in October). However, it can be made tolerable if you hike up to the castle ruins, bring a picnic lunch, and find the back streets away from the crowd. The pool was closed when we visited, which in hindsight, is probably normal for October.
• Malcolm (9/5): A very enjoyable stay with great views and a lovely host. - Location with a view to San Gimignano was outstanding, Visiting late September, we did not use the swimming pool although it was available and looked fabulous. Marco was a great host and had a great wine tasting and tour of the winery. Location great for Firenze, Pisa, Siena. Travelling out of season with earlier nights and some wet weather, we wondered if the small room off the main kitchen/dining area could be better utilised as a small living room/snug.
• Richard (10/5): all perfect! - A really great place to stay, the host Roberta is super friendly and everything was perfect. we’ll come back when we are in the area. nothing
• Jakub (10/5): Perfect place in Toscany - This is wonderful place and Roberta and Marco are most wonderful hosts. Apartment is very comfortable, great beds, cosy kitchen, washing machine and what a pool! Views are spectacular and pool is large enough to swim comfortably. The apartment surrounded by a vineyard own by the hosts and is by the local road (low traffic, tarmac). Parking is safe and it is easy to get there. One of the best holiday apartments I have ever been.
