Fattoria Di Pancole — Restaurant in San Gimignano

Just outside of San Gimignano, in the beautiful Tuscan countryside, Fattoria di Pancole was the perfect base for our week long holiday. |We stayed in the apartment La Lepre, which consisted of a bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen, and pretty much every utensil/amenity you could possibly need. |And the views... well, they were absolutely breathtaking! From the small terrace outside the apartment, on which we enjoyed an early morning coffee, and a relaxing glass of wine on an evening, to the small garden area specific to each apartment, not to mention the lovely pool area, which we were lucky enough to have to ourselves most days of our stay. |Sandra and her family were lovely and really helpful, as were every single staff member we met. Providing us with recommendations on places to visit and even helping us to make dinner reservations at local restaurants. |During our stay, we tried 2 of the wineries' own red wines, and they were really, really good. We're only sorry that we didn't get chance to try them all, but on the plus side, it's a good reason for us to return... just one of many!! |My final comments have been saved for one of the main reasons that we chose the Fattoria di Pancole for our stay... Teo 🐕 (apologies if that's spelt incorrectly). Who met us out of our hire car every day with a happily wagging tail and a smile that so reminded us of our own dogs and made us feel truly at home. |To sum up... this is an absolutely amazing place and we would not hesitate to recommend...

Overall we had a really nice holiday in the Fattoria. As you can see from google maps the place is like a little borgo with a path in the middle which divides the two sides of the place. We stayed at the apartment "Il Falco" which is on the first floor of the building close to the pool. It takes roughly 20 stone steps to get to the apartment which has a kitchen and two rooms, one with the bathroom the other one has the bathroom outside the room. Rooms are basic, not too big but clean and nicely furnished. Roughly 50 meters from our apartment on the left side we had the swimming pool. This is just awesome. From the pool area, which is very quiet, you have a fantastic view of the valley. You can't eat in the swimming pool garden which is quite annoying, but you can move not too far away and take a seat in the garden spots that surround the Fattoria. Something which is important to note is that in this beautiful place there is nowhere to buy anything to eat. So I recommend to make some food shopping before getting there. However San Gimignano is just 10km far and there is a supermarket just before getting there on the right hand side. Wireless signal is very strong anywhere. We enjoyed our stay a lot, a...

We don’t want to praise this place too much, as everyone will want to come, and we want it free for us. But seriously having come here last year for a wine tour and tasting we vowed to come and stay this year and having spent 10 nights here we want to come back every year!|We stayed in Il Nibbio which is a lovely apartment for 2 with a large terrace overlooking the Tuscan countryside. We spent many evenings sitting on the terrace, enjoying the view, eating alfresco breakfast, lunch or dinner, watching the sun go down or sitting in the moonlight listening to the cicadas. Sandra and Luca are so friendly and perfect hosts and even invited all the guests to have some wine and nibbles with them which was a really lovely gesture. Being a winery, the wine is fantastic! There is a quiet swimming pool with plenty of sun beds and deck chairs and finding somewhere by the pool was never an issue. The whole place is surrounded by breath taking views both front and back. |The apartment is clean and comfortable with everything you need to self cater and enjoy a lovely holiday. We’ll be...
