What can I say that hasn't already been said. When I started looking for accommodation in rural Tuscany with a pool, easy access by public transport and close enough to a nice town to walk to and fro, I couldn't find much. You'll have to drive, everyone said. Luckily, I stumbled across this place! Stayed here for 5 nights. Davide... More

We stayed here for 5 nights. We were able to walk from Montese to San Gimignano which we did in 30 minutes along the strada Bianca at a brisk walking pace- perfect for us in early May without the heat of summer. The location was peaceful with a fantastic view of the town. Annalisa and Davide were friendly, helpful and... More

Podere Montese is located in scenic, rolling hills outside of San Gimignano. The hosts, Davide and Annalisa, are very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Our visit was in late March, so it was nice to see the area very green and in flower. Breakfast each morning was coffee, bread, cheeses, meats, juice, and cereals. Pretty good. If anything, I would say... More

This hotel is so charming. The hotel is a shot distance outside of the town center of San Gimignano, but that's one of the things that makes it perfect. From the hotel pool and grounds, you will get a view of the town's beautiful and ancient skyline. Amazing! The rooms are beautiful and comfy with fantastic views of the rolling... More

We recently spent a week staying at Podere Montese near San Gimignano. The property - a working vineyard and farm - is magnificent, with breathtaking Tuscan views. We stayed in the separate apartment, which was perfect for our young family (us and 20 month old twin boys). Podere Montese is well located to San Gimignano and other places of interest... More

If you want to wake up with the sound of birds singing and a great view of La Toscana's wine fields and soft green hills, this is the place. There is also the option of choosing a Charmy B& B in town (San Giminiano), but as this was my first time in the area and after spending some time in... More

In October 2010 I had the privilege of visiting Podere Montese for the first time. This October on another trip to Tuscany, I was thrilled to return to the breathtaking scenery and warm hospitality of this quaint B & B. When I arrived the hosts Annalisa and Davide greeted us with open arms like we were old friends and graciously... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at Podere Montese in May 2011 for a little under a week and really wish that we'd had more time to enjoy the tranquility of the area and the hospitality of Annalisa and Davide. We had rented a car, which is a must if staying this far out of a main city; this allowed us... More

When we booked Podere Montese, we thought: If it is as good as in the pictures, it will be perfect. Two weeks there and we can frankly say: It was even better than in the pictures. We had a great time and Podere Montese is everything you imagine when you plan a vacation in Tuscany. This little place is close... More
