Your Home in Tuscany near San Gimignano !
The ' Borgo'- off the old Roman ' Via Volterrana 'has been rebuilt from ruins. Italian heritage laws are very strict and the whole village has been reconstructed on the same footprint as the original. Now we have a wonderful place for visitors to come and enjoy the Tuscan countryside within easy reach of all that Tuscany has to share with the world. 'Casa Bartoli' is part of what was a large farm building and is now a modern spacious 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment. The bathrooms are beautifully tiled in travertine marble.Terracotta tiled floors and ceilings with huge wooden beams supporting the roof are typical of the area. The main bedroom has a double bed and the second -which is a larger room-has two single beds which can be used as a double bed...both bathrooms have no baths-but showers are excellent with plenty of hot water supplied from the solar( supplemented by gas) system. All kitchen utensils and appliances are new- dishwasher,2 small fridges (one with freezer), gas stove and oven.A small fully automatic washing machine is also provided.The dining area inside seats 6 people comfortably-or dine outside at the 'al fresco' table under the trees... The swimming pool and spa are just wonderful for a dip after a hot days touring. Here you are central to all that Tuscany has to offer.There are many good restaurants nearby- just up the road- the nearest is"' Osteria Il Castagno" a nice little restaurant about a 5 minute drive away. For grocery shopping if you prefer to dine under the trees at home- there is the big PAM supermarket in Poggibonsi, the COOPs in San Gimignano, Montaione and Certaldo or the smaller minimarket in Gambassi Terme. A day trip to Florence ( or Siena )is easy by train from the station in Certaldo,avoiding the driving and parking problems associated with each city. The Chianti Classico wine region can be reached within an hours drive. The ' Borgo ', down a quiet road in the countryside between San Gimignano,Gambassi Terme and Volterra provides "away from it all" tranquility. Please come and enjoy the wonders of the Tuscan countryside from a very central location...

Absolutely loved our stay here. The place was perfect with lots of lovely sitting areas outdoors, beautiful views over the Tuscan hills and a gorgeous pool area. Close to lots of amazing Tuscan villages full of gorgeous food and restaurants! Will be hoping to come back one day soon!
Amazing apartment and environment. Well equiped and cozy. A bit crowded in the pool area but manageable.
Do note that you need to drive 20 min to stores but restaurants pops up in the middle of nowhere to be explored.
Winetasting was a success from our side.
A really good place if you just want to relax but also close to cities like Siena and Florens. We webt to Siena which was amazing.
1hour drive to the sea is recommended.(Cesina)
This is a unit within a small townhouse complex in the heart of Tuscany. It has a gorgeous shared infinity pool overlooking Tuscany and the unit is clean with a full kitchen and two bedrooms and bathrooms. The buildings themselves are all made of stone - quite beautiful and fit with the Tuscan scene. Gordon his property manager are helpful, communicate promptly and are very nice.
The listing doesn't do this place justice, it has an outstanding view of the beautiful Italian landscape. The property has a nice calm and relaxing area and all the ammonites that one can wish for. Friendly area, great location if you want to see some authentic sights of Italy (San Gimignano and Volterra to name a couple) but also if you want to lounge by a pool to unwind and decompress.
The owner was always in contact when needed and gave clear instructions.
This rental was everything we hoped for for our trip to Tuscany. The location was perfect for all of our day trips. Gordon and Marco were very kind and responsive to our messages. We had an unexpected delay due to a train strike and Marco worked with us for a seamless check-in. My husband kept saying that the pictures didn't do the rental justice, it really exceeded our expectations.
The pool was a nice treat after a long day in the heat (note we should have brought our own pool towels as stated in the rental contract). For future renters, I'd suggest arriving with your own hand soap and paper products for the washrooms. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking.

Wonderful, Relaxing!
The villa was lovely! It was clean, spacious and equipped with everything we needed. The views were amazing. It was too cool for the pool, but it was clean and inviting. There were a couple problems with the oven and burners, but the owner and manager promised to have them fixed. The parking is off site but was just a short walk from the villa.

High expectations did not disappoint!
Tuscany and accommodations were as beautiful as imagined. Our flight was late getting in so we arrived late and in the dark. Difficult to find but once I called Gordon he helped us. Gordon was very responsive to any questions we had. The internet was hit and miss but other than that it was perfect!

Lovely home, great location in rural Tuscany!
Lovely, large, and comfortable home for 2 adults and 2 teens. The setting and views are fantastic, as is the pool. We had some trouble initially finding this place; I strongly recommend that you follow Gordon's recommendations regarding arrival and do NOT rely on Google maps GPS coordinates. Also, follow his recommendations regarding picking up supplies (food, TP etc) on the way. There is a great grocery store (COOP) nearby in Montaione. Wifi is hit and miss (as expected ini rural Italy). Gordon was very responsive with any issues. I would not hesitate to recommend this place for a quiet lovely family getaway and a great base for exploring the hill towns. We particularly loved Volterra.
We stayed with our teenage daughter in late June. This place was just as listed. Super clean, with high-end finishes and lovely views from every room. The apartment is spacious, with two full bathrooms and a large kitchen. AC worked well. We LOVED the pool area and the amazing view from the pool. There were a few families at the pool at most and the size was just about big enough for short laps. Very convenient to Florence, Sienna and Lucca, though the immediate area was a bit isolated with poor cellular reception and no stores. (There is a farm up the road where you can buy excellent olive oil, eggs etc.) The wifi in the house was also a bit spotty and combined with poor cell reception in the area it sometimes took a few extra minutes to plan our day. Beds were hard but not a dealbreaker. Overall it one of the best places I have ever rented, excellent value. Highly recommend!

Perfect Tuscany Hideaway
My husband and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary by visiting Tuscany with another couple. During the planning stage, Gordon helped us out immensely with suggestions ranging from car rentals to restaurants. He gave us detailed driving instructions which led us directly to this countryside gem. The outside is beautifully rustic and the inside was warm and inviting with large bedrooms and modern bathrooms. The pictures do not do this home justice at all. We walked through the front door and across the open floor plan we could see the outline of the hill town, Volterra, framed in the kitchen window. Stunning! Every evening we would wander down to the gorgeous infinity pool and watch the sun set behind Volterra. Although there are other units in the complex we still felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. Gordon also surprised us with several bottles of prosecco to celebrate our big day. We loved how easy it was to jump in the car and within 20 minutes be at the hill town of San Gimignano. Make reservations at Le Vecchio Mura for the best food and the most stunning view in Tuscany if you dine on their terrace. Volterra and Sienna were easy drives. Want to go to Florence? Leave your car behind and hop the train in Certaldo. One suggestion I have is to stop at the grocery store on the way to the rental destination and stock up with what you need. Look for a "Coop." We would stay at this location again and again.
Heerlijk om hier de vakantie door te brengen. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en heel erg schoon. Ook een mooi zwembad. De omgeving is ook prachtig, mooi uitzicht, midden in de natuur. En toch ook dichtbij restaurants, stadjes. Auto is wel nodig. Aanrader!
Abseits gelegenes Dorf mit schönem Pool. Uns war die Wohnung etwas zu dunkel. Der Garten ist im Frühjahr bestimmt sehr schön, jetzt war alles recht trocken. Haus war sehr sauber und Kommunikation war gut.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Anlage ist schön, der Pool supertoll. Ein- und Auschecken hat problemlos geklappt. Die Wohnung ist gut ausgestattet. Die Umgebung ist soektakulär. Viele Städte sind gut zu erreichen.
Wir waren bereits zum 2. Mal in der Unterkunft. Wir wussten genau warum. Es ist einfach nur super gelegen, gemütlich und sauber und wir konnten auch in diesem Jahr wirklich entspannen. Sicherlich werden wir nicht zum letzten Mal zu Besuch gewesen sein.
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub in der Toskana. Die Lage sorgte für absolute Erholung und Entspannung. Der wunderbare Pool brachte Abkühlung und der Blick auf die toskanische Landschaft trug dazu bei. Wir waren schon zum zweiten Mal da und werden sicher wiederkommen.
Wir haben uns in der wunderschönen Ferienwohnung so wohl gefühlt. Es war alles sehr sauber und gemütlich, toskanisch eingerichtet. Die Lage der gesamten Anlage ist sehr ruhig mit einem atemberaubenden Pool. Sehr wohltuend war es nach Ausflügen in die Umgebung hierhin zurückzukehren.
Lediglich hat die Klimaanlage während der Hälfte unserers Aufenthalts nicht funktioniert, aber Marco und Gordon waren jederzeit ansprechbar und immer hilfsbereit.
Wir überlegen schon jetzt wann wir wieder kommen werden.
Die Wohnung war wie beschrieben mit allen ausgestattet, sauber und geschmackvoll ausgestattet. Die nette Wohnungsübergabe mit Fabio hat uns sehr gut gefallen und uns willkommen geheißen. Klimatisierung und das jederzeit verfügbare Heißasser waren sehr angenehm. Das ehemalige Dörfchen Mommiliana ist liebevoll rekonstruiert worden und liegt in einer schönen Lage absolut ruhig. Das Highlight war für uns der einmalige Infinitypool mit Aussicht auf Voltera. Die Idee, die PKW etwas außerhalb abzustellen ist sehr gut, aber leider haben sich einige Gäste nicht daran gehalten. Sehr Schade und für uns beim beladen unseres
Reisegepäcks mühsam. Einziges Ärgernis , dass verfügbare WLAN hat die 14 Tage für Ärger gesorgt, da man sich täglich mehrmals immer wieder aufs Neue anmelden musste. Wir können unseren Gastgeber Gordon und diesen idyllischen Ort für alle empfehlen, die das besondere lieben und schätzen, auch wenn die Zufahrt über eine ca. 2 km lange Schotterstraße führt ;-)
Unsere Restaurants, die für unser leibliches Wohl gesorgt haben und absolut empfehlenswert sind.
Toskanische Küche: Ristorante BOSCOTONDO und die Osteria LA MONTAGNOLA. Wir kommen sicherlich wieder.
Der Ort ist wirklich sehenswert. Am Ende einer Schotterstraße - sehr ruhig gelegen.
Die Unterkunft ist komplett ausgestattet und entspricht vollständig der Beschreibung. Das Gebäude, das Außengelände und die Einrichtung ist im toskanischen Stil und sehr schön. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt.
Die Kommunikation mit Gordon ist schnell und problemlos.
Wir ( Familie mit 3 Kindern ) haben einen traumhaften Urlaub im Borgo Mommialla in der Toskana verbracht.
Lieber Gordon, wir haben uns in Deiner Unterkunft sehr (!) wohl gefühlt. Sehr schönes und sehr sauberes großes Appartment ( auch für 5 Personen ). Dank Mückennetzen und Klimaanlage auch im Hochsommer im Juli jederzeit ein Wohlfühlort. Die gesamte Anlage inkl. großem (!) Pool war sehr sauber und gepflegt. Viele tolle kurze Ausflüge möglich ( San Gimingano oder Volterra ) oder auch Ausflüge in die Umgebung möglich ( Sienna, Pisa, Lucca, Florenz … ).
Danke an Dich Gordon, für Deine schnellen Antworten auf unsere Fragen vor Reiseantritt und Deine Informationen.
Danke auch an Marco als Ansprechpartner vor Ort.
Wir kommen sehr gern wieder in die Toskana und ins Borgo Mommialla. Gerrit, Jenny und Kinder
Appartement très bien situé au sein du hameau.
Location fonctionnelle et fort agréable.
La piscine est véritablement inoubliable.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.
Le chemin d'accès au hameau mériterait d'être amélioré.
Wir haben die Zeit in der Borgo Mommialla genossen. Die Wohnung war super, Marco war immer zu erreichen und sehr hilfsbereit und der Pool ist ein Traum. Jederzeit wieder…
