Two Bedroom First Floor Apartment San Gimignano

A winding avenue of cypress trees leads apartment Gina on the ‘La Fattoria estate’. Situated in a fantastic elevated position above San Gimignano, there are lovely views of the countryside and the medieval town across the valley. Gina has a large private balcony shaded by a pergola, where you can relax and enjoy the marvellous panorama and a short walk through the grounds lead to the beautiful swimming pool.

Gina is situated in beautiful stone farmhouse on an estate in a magnificent position on top of a hill facing the towers of San Gimignano just 4.5km away. The estate has 180 hectares of pasture, agricultural land and woods. It produces excellent wine and olive oil which are available for purchase, and guests are free to wander the estate, which, rich in flora and fauna is the most delightful location for enjoying country walks and admiring the magnificent landscape.

Gina is a bright and comfortably furnished apartment with all of its windows enjoying splendid views. The french windows in the living room open on to a large private balcony (44 sqm) where you can relax and enjoy the most marvellous panorama of the surrounding countryside. The balcony which is partially covered by a pergola is furnished with table, chairs, and sunloungers. There is a barbecue in the grounds close by.

A path leads to the beautiful swimming pool (14m x 7m) which looks out across sunflower fields, vineyards and olive groves to the distant hills. The pool is furnished with sunbeds and sun umbrellas and there is a handy changing room with shower and w.c.

La Fattoria ‘The Plateau Estate’ composed of the owner’s manor house, with its own chapel, two traditional Tuscan farmhouses which have been restored to offer very comfortable apartments, and a panoramic swimming pool.

Our farmhouse has been divided into four apartments, three of which are rented (Nos 34 Vanda, 35 Gina, 36 Marina), all of which are most comfortably furnished in traditional Tuscan style. The farmhouse is surrounded by the estate’s vineyards and olive groves and commands the most stunning views of the countryside, with the medieval hamlet of Montauto and the towers of the city of San Gimignano clearly visible over the valley. Mountain bikes are available on request, and there is a utility room with washing machine for communal use. Parking is in the grounds of the estate close to the farmhouse.

La Fattoria is only 4.5 kms from San Gimignano. Known as ‘The City of Towers’ it is a fascinating place to explore, with many craft shops, local art galleries, and historic monuments, as well as an excellent selection of restaurants. 15km away is the town of Poggibonsi which has road, rail and bus links to Florence and Siena making both of these towns easily accessible, and Volterra with its amphitheatre and interesting Etruscan museum is only 30 minutes drive away.
