We had an absolutely lovely stay,although it was only for one night. Roberto and his family were very accommodating,generous and helpful even though we couldn't speak Italian;we mainly communicated using a translation app. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was large and clean. We were given a room with a double bed and a bunk bed. Amenities were also well provided. Breakfast,although mainly prepacked goods and not freshly prepared,was plentiful and more than sufficient. We booked the room through WhatsApp because we did not receive a reply when requesting it through the website.

We liked the agritourism style of the place with a new and clean apartment. Host (Italian nona) was super helpful and very sweet lady. Good distance from San Gimignano city, with bus stop right at the entrance to front garden of agritourism. Worth to spend our time in Tuscany for sure!

Nothing less to be expected than a place like home. The keep is 2 km from San Gimignano, embedded in the countryside, yet groomed to perfection. The rooms are almost as lovely as the hosts, and furnished of every commodity. We had our mini fridge refilled every day with goods for breakfast, and got blessed with a bottle of 4-year-old Chianti on our desk. Highly recommended for a sweet and peaceful trip for couples.

Podere Le Retine is a very beautiful property with very nice rooms. The hosts are really caring, unfortunately they do not speak English. But with gestures and movements you can communicate very well with Roberto and his mother Maria. Located in a very quiet area, only about 3 minutes drive from San Gimignano. Always a pleasure to go back!

I stayed at this Bed & Breakfast in San Gimignano and the experience was truly special. The location is excellent, a short walk from the historic center, yet in a quiet and relaxing setting. The room was clean, welcoming and carefully decorated, with a beautiful view of the Tuscan hills that made waking up even more pleasant. Breakfast was plentiful and genuine, with fresh, typical local products, served with great care and friendliness. The hosts are helpful and warm people, ready to recommend restaurants, itineraries and activities to best discover San Gimignano and the surroundings. A stay that combines comfort, authenticity and hospitality: definitely a place to return to and one I highly recommend to anyone who wants to experience the true Tuscan atmosphere.

Great choice. My wife and I stayed four nights. The property is welcoming, clean and well kept, in a very quiet area, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees and just a short walk from San Gimignano. The room had everything needed for a do-it-yourself breakfast and a minibar that was always stocked. A hug to the hosts Roberto and Mrs. Maria, who were very kind and always available even for a chat. A heartfelt thanks also for the gift received for the birthday celebrated at the property. Highly recommended.

I was with my wife for just two days, but the warmth, kindness, and nice conversations made us feel at home right away. Maria is super nice, Roberto is a person of a rare kindness. Self-service breakfast, with a minibar in the room to store anything, especially in summer. I could go on for hours listing things, but we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything, even for the throat candy upon departure.

I would say excellent is not enough, courtesy and attention to the customer are maximum. Significantly superior to others with costs up to three times higher. My luggage was also transported in the car. The chocolate on the bedside table was also of excellent quality. I also found lactose-free milk in the fridge. I was amazed, they deserve a visit from them. A warm greeting to the elderly owner and her son, manager and worker in agritourism and beyond. I think I have a good judgment because I often use these structures.

I stayed at Podere Le Retine during the bridge of April 25th and it was a wonderful experience. The structure is a renovated farmhouse, with exposed beams and terracotta floors, immersed in the tranquility of the Tuscan countryside, just 2 km from the historic center. I stayed in a cozy room, equipped with a private bathroom and TV. The garden is wonderful, with a breathtaking view of the medieval towers of San Gimignano. Nearby I also found a pool and tennis courts, perfect for relaxing even more. I was warmly welcomed by Roberto and his mother Maria, who were very kind and attentive to detail: they offered me a welcome bottle of wine and found chocolates in the room. Even the breakfast, although self-managed, was abundant and with high-quality products. I found the rooms spotless and I really appreciated the quiet of the area, ideal for resting after sightseeing. The location of the podere is perfect for exploring San Gimignano and the surrounding area. Overall, my stay at Podere Le Retine exceeded my expectations: excellent value for money, sincere hospitality, and a truly special location. I can't wait to return!

We were hosted by Roberto during our Francigena by bike and we were super happy with his hospitality. Although San Gimignano is a very sought-after tourist destination, Roberto was very kind, far beyond our expectations, and treated us really very warmly. The property is in an excellent location, just outside the village but easily accessible. The room was spotless and equipped with everything, highly recommended 😊.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful structure where Roberto, the manager, with kindness and availability out of the ordinary, provided us with a nice double room with a bunk bed and a spacious and comfortable bathroom, in addition to a kitchen where we could independently have breakfast very early in the morning with the many products, of excellent quality, made available to us. There were also treats with chocolates, nougats, and even a bottle of excellent local vernaccia to take home as a memento of this delightful vacation. Furthermore, Roberto gave us very useful indications regarding parking and restaurants where we felt very well. In short, Podere Le Retine is an ideal place to stay just a short distance from the city, immersed in peace and greenery.

Two-night stay as a couple. We requested a room, and Roberto reserved the apartment for us, which was very spacious, comfortable, and equipped with complete amenities in the room, bathroom, and kitchen. There was a good selection of breakfast products available, and the fridge was always stocked with water, fruit juices, and yogurt. We were pampered with a pastry on the bedside table and a welcome bottle of wine. Roberto and his mother Maria are very friendly; they make you feel at ease and give useful advice. The place is very nice, quiet, and surrounded by greenery, with private parking and a garden, not far from San Gimignano, which can even be reached on foot (2 km). Highly recommended.

We stayed for just one night with our two daughters, but we would have stayed for much longer! Our room was a small apartment with a kitchen equipped with everything, where we were able to prepare breakfast with all the products that Mr. Roberto had prepared for us. Excellent cleanliness, we have never found such a clean place with attention to every little detail (even the slippers and chocolates for our girls). The owner, Mr. Roberto, is a truly friendly and super kind person. In addition to giving us a bottle of welcome wine, he provided us with many useful tips for visiting San Gimignano. We will definitely return.

Fantastic location a few km from the center. Slippers even in the room. In the room, he set up a little corner for a self-service breakfast, meaning a coffee machine with pods available and other small treats. Service really top-notch, hard to ask for better, really compliments. Hairdryer in the room much appreciated by me traveling by motorcycle. Highly recommended place, too bad we stopped only one night. We will definitely come back. Thank you Roberto for the hospitality.

My husband and I stayed for 3 days at Podere Le Retine managed by Roberto. I gave the highest rating because it is truly deserved, starting from Roberto's availability and kindness, to the cleanliness of the room and bathroom, to the convenient location for visiting not only San Gimignano but also Siena, Volterra, and other places. The panorama and the beauty of the territory, from the hills to the vineyards, are truly relaxing, as is the nighttime silence that allows for a good rest. Additionally, the room is equipped with everything needed for a very generous breakfast, and the coffee machine and milk frother are quality accessories found in very few places. I extend our most genuine compliments to Roberto and the sweet mother Maria. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Katia.

Immersed in the Tuscan countryside, the center can also be reached on foot or by bus; or you can follow Roberto's advice on where to park a stone's throw from the center (we did so and had a great time. The welcome was very kind and the stay beyond our expectations: we were even offered a welcome bottle of Vernaccia, from vineyards near the B&B. Very abundant breakfast and top cleanliness and covered parking. We stayed only one night, but we will definitely return when we plan a longer visit to those magnificent places.

I stayed at this property for a short vacation and felt right at home. The room they assigned to me was perfect, cool and dry, excellently furnished, equipped with every comfort, large bathroom with a spectacular shower and a huge mirror. Impeccable cleanliness. Mini-bar daily restocked with everything (fruit juices, yogurt, cereals, water, etc.) and a bottle of wine offered upon arrival. Garden meticulously cared for with flowers everywhere and nice little tables to have breakfast in peace and absolute silence. The managers Roberto and Maria are exceptional people rarely encountered, always smiling, caring, and attentive to every need. If I were to return to San Gimignano, I wouldn't even look for another place but would immediately return to them. I wish you all the best. Thank you very much. Paolo.

Staying even just one night allowed us to appreciate all the qualities of this delightful place, very close to the town but already surrounded by the greenery of the surrounding countryside. The cleanliness of the room, the air conditioning, the fully stocked fridge, the spacious bathroom, and above all the courtesy and availability of Roberto, the manager together with his mother, made this stopover a pleasant moment as if still being with family. All information received was accurate, the garden is beautiful for having breakfast in the morning, excellent value for money. What more could you want?

Staying at the Roberto and his mother's property was an experience within the experience of the Via Francigena. The room with independent entrance and private bathroom was extremely clean and equipped with every comfort, as well as many little attentions that show how much the owners care about hospitality. Just a stone's throw from the center of San Gimignano, it is located next to a restaurant, so staying there for one night during the Via Francigena walk proved to be strategically convenient, as well as welcoming and comfortable. Highly recommended also for those who want to enjoy a bit of relaxation among the Tuscan hills.

We stayed at this property for 3 nights, in the quadruple room with a large and comfortable bathroom and organized kitchen. The breakfast was abundant (every morning what was consumed was replenished!) and self-managed. We were impressed by the cleanliness (the rooms were cleaned every morning) and the kindness of the host who surprised us with chocolates, a bottle of Chianti, and one morning an extra super breakfast! The farmhouse immersed in the countryside allows you to relax and reach beautiful Tuscan locations. Highly recommended! We hope to return soon!

He paid attention to the smallest details and made us feel immediately 'at home', even giving us a bottle of Chianti as a gift. The property is located in the countryside but not far from the center of San Gimignano, a perfect location immersed in nature. Our room was very clean, well-maintained, and equipped with every comfort. The breakfast (self-managed in the room) was very abundant and of high quality. If we pass by the area, we will definitely come back! Highly recommended.

A little table set for breakfast with sweet snacks (jams, chocolate spread, honey, butter, cereals, rusks, yogurt, and packaged croissants), and the coffee machine with various pods available. In the small fridge, various drinks such as mineral water bottles, fruit juices, and milk. The gift of a bottle of wine that was given to us was very much appreciated.

Roberto is incomparable: attentive, precise, accommodating, friendly, and nice. Available for anything, providing excellent directions on how to move around and where to go. In short, a weekend of relaxation in harmony. Definitely deserves a longer stay to enjoy everything that this structure and the people running it can offer. Roberto's mother, a lovely and very kind person, greeted us in an incredible way, as if we had been with them for months even though it was only one night. We will definitely come back to visit and stay with them!

The breakfast was abundant, with coffee, cappuccino, juices, croissants... everything was extremely clean (REALLY, not like certain reviews!). The bed was comfortable, the bathroom spacious, the atmosphere relaxing, peaceful, with breathtaking views: the Tuscan hills are of a unique beauty... It's a shame I only stayed one night. If I were to come back to those areas, this will definitely be my destination. Thank you Roberto, also for the complimentary bottle, and a hug to your mom. - Patrizia.

There are really no words to describe how well we were, the score of 10 is an understatement. 3 fabulous nights from all points of view. Very beautiful, well-kept, clean location, the apartment that was given to us always in order, top cleanliness and the attached kitchen provided with everything and more both in terms of utensils and for breakfast. Well connected even for those who want to go to San Gimignano by public transport or for a walk (about 2.5 km from San Gimignano). Every day everything necessary for breakfast was replenished, jams, rusks, juices, yogurt, water and everything else. Not to mention the welcome of Roberto and Maria, the owners who hosted us, the cordiality, the personal sympathy. A welcome thought, a local wine and chocolates on the bedside tables, seems little but it is not. We are really happy and will definitely return for next December and also breathe the Christmas atmosphere. Thank you so much Roberto and Maria.

Honestly, the managers of the property (mother and son) were truly excellent, kind, and generous in every way. In the room, we found a nice bottle of quality local wine on the table, with a beautiful room complete with a truly wonderful bathroom. Around the property, there is immense greenery with a heavenly peace. Not to mention that we had a fridge full of everything, and as soon as one night passed, they filled it up again. We had both the coffee machine with its respective capsules and also the one for making cappuccino (very easy to use). When we left, they also gave us many things they produce. We will miss that place and the two of them so much. I hope that next year we can go there and stay for a week.

The apartment where we stayed for 3 nights is very beautiful, spotless, furnished in the smallest details and very well-kept. The attention to the guest is paramount, upon our arrival in the apartment we found a bottle of wine, slippers, and candies on the bedside tables waiting for us! The apartment is equipped with air conditioning, television in the bedroom and in the kitchen, a very spacious bathroom, and a parking space for the car or in our case for the motorcycle, every day the owners also provided us with everything we needed for breakfast! Roberto and his mom, Mrs. Maria, gave us excellent advice on where to eat and what to visit in the surroundings. Truly two people whose kindness is disarming and feels like from another era, and with whom we are happy to have spent time. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything. If there is an opportunity to return to Tuscany, we will definitely come back here. We recommend it to everyone!

Podere Le Retine kept in an impeccable manner. An oasis of peace just 2 km from the center of San Gimignano, reachable with a pleasant walk. Spacious and spotlessly clean room. Everything necessary for a good breakfast that can be enjoyed in the room. The owners, Roberto and mother Maria, are two special people. Simple and very kind. Always available for any needs and advice. Every day they left us candies and chocolates in the room. In the room, there are bathroom kits, towels of various sizes, hairdryer, and slippers. In short, all more than positive. To further improve the comfort, a small fridge could be added in the room to keep something fresh (yogurt/fruit).

We stayed at this property for only one night, unfortunately, but we had a great time. The place is stunning, immersed in the greenery of the Tuscan hills, among olive groves and vineyards as far as the eye can see. In the evening, if you look up at the sky, you feel surrounded by a blanket of very bright stars, and in the morning you wake up to the chirping of the sparrows. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The breakfast was plentiful. A special thank you and a hug to MARIA and ROBERTO who, with their kindness, made us feel truly at home. We will be back this summer! ANNALISA and MAURIZIO.

Great place to stay in the tranquility of the Tuscan hills, very close to San Gimignano. Roberto is a perfect host, caring and attentive to every detail. Perfect room service breakfast complete with everything. If we find ourselves in that area again, we will definitely have another stay. Highly recommended.

Thanks to the hospitality and kindness of Roberto and Maria I spent a wonderful day with my sister. The place is enchanting, immersed in the countryside a stone's throw from San Gimignano and still a good base to visit other important Tuscan villages. The B&B is clean and very well-kept with a large garden ideal for having breakfast in the morning, spending moments of relaxation or working if you are like me who carry the computer with you. The room is very welcoming, tastefully furnished and equipped with everything and more. The price is low for the treatment and service offered. Too bad we only stayed one night! We will definitely come back not only for the place but also because we have become fond of Roberto and Maria.

The B&B is located in a charming place, close to the historic center of San Gimignano, which is easily reachable. The rooms of the typically Tuscan building are tastefully furnished and reflect the calm atmosphere of the picturesque landscape; they are also well cleaned and maintained. Customers are warmly welcomed by the two managers (Roberto and Mrs. Maria, the mother), kind, helpful, and attentive in making customers feel at ease. A very pleasant experience. Valdameri Family.

What can I say? It's a shame we only stayed for one night. Beautiful outdoor space (so much greenery), clean room furnished very nicely, spacious bathroom. Self-service breakfast but with everything necessary and a relaxing and pleasant outdoor space where, if desired, it can be enjoyed. Kindness and availability of the owners. Strategic location in relation to San Gimignano with the possibility of using the bus to reach the town (bus stop practically in front of Podere Le Retine). Excellent value for money. Great experience.

Many beautiful reviews are deserved: personally verified! We stayed at this very charming Vacation Home for 4 nights and we already miss it so much! The property deserves ratings above 10, for everything: kindness, availability and discretion, extreme and sincere; cleanliness and attention to details; strategic location, very close to the renowned village but immersed in the countryside; the price is definitely low compared to what it offers. I won't dwell on the wonders, among small beautiful villages and more famous cities, visitable nearby: Poggibonsi, Monteriggioni, Volterra, Colle Val d'Elsa, Certaldo, Siena just to name a few of those visited. These are places that "allow" another dimension: a "leap" into history and traditions together with a closeness to nature and its scents. Another special note to the managers, Roberto and his mother: simple and exquisite people, for whom you are a guest before being a customer. Well done well done well done! Needless to say, we intend to return! Another thank you and a hug to Roberto and Maria. Catia and Mario.

Beautiful structure, both inside and outside, strategic location, as it is close to many characteristic villages to visit (Monteriggioni, Certaldo, Colle Val d'Elsa, etc.), but above all kindness, courtesy, and a lot of availability in everything by Roberto and Mrs. Maria, ready for any request. They offered and gifted us their garden products, their wine, set the table for lunch in the garden. What more could you want! Thanks again from Antonio, Raffaelle, and the kids.

A place that I really like, surrounded by greenery among olive trees and vines, very relaxing, a walk to reach the center of San Gimignano without effort, enjoying the view the mind and the heart with the beautiful panorama of the hills in front and the towers of the center. The welcome and friendliness of Maria and Roberto filled our holiday week, they were also very helpful with information to visit other nearby places, Siena, Volterra and more. Well-kept and very clean environments, I recommend it to everyone.

What can I say. Strategic location to visit half of Tuscany, excellent cleanliness, beautiful cottage, secluded enough with the possibility of using the kitchen and a very pleasant garden. The manager Roberto with his nice mom is of a kindness and discretion truly unique. They made us find a welcome gift from their estate and, believe it or not, on the evening of August 15th he prepared an aperitif dinner worthy of the best local restaurants. In the morning he gave our child a bag of figs and grapes for the journey. So we will have to come back for sure.

We chose the B&B Podere Le Retine somewhat randomly as a stopover for just one night during a road trip with the motorcycle. Immersed in the heart of San Gimignano, we walked a short dirt path and as soon as we arrived we were greeted by Roberto, the very friendly and cordial owner, and later by dear Maria. They immediately made us feel at ease and provided us with a lot of information about the town. The property is just outside the citadel, in a quiet area surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, a stone's throw from the communal pool. Our room, located on the first floor, was very pretty, clean, well-ventilated, equipped with air conditioning and with excellent amenities. The surrounding panorama and the beautiful garden available to guests with armchairs and sun loungers. Long chats and pleasant hospitality. We thank Roberto and mother Maria again for the welcome and regret the short time spent in that wonderful oasis of tranquility! We will definitely return.

My partner and I chose this B&B somewhat by chance as a stop for just one night during a holiday in Tuscany. What can I say, we were welcomed like family by both Roberto and dear Maria! They immediately made us feel at ease and gave us a lot of information about the area. We also had the chance to appreciate the local products at an aperi-dinner (more dinner than aperitif) kindly offered by the hosts to celebrate Ferragosto with the other guests, they were really good at making the evening truly pleasant! The farmhouse is just outside the citadel, in a quiet area surrounded by olive trees and vineyards. Our room was very nice, clean, well-ventilated, and with a very large and equipped bathroom. From the windows, you could admire the surrounding panorama and also the beautiful garden available to guests with armchairs and sun loungers. We thank Roberto and Mama Maria again for the time spent there with them in that wonderful corner of paradise! If we pass by again, we will definitely stop with great pleasure! Giovanni and Lara.

Weekend with friends to conclude the Christmas holidays. We were lucky to find in Podere Le Retine a tranquil corner very close to San Gimignano. Courtesy and hospitality from Mrs. Maria and her son Roberto, very helpful people to recommend tourist tours and places to enjoy typical Tuscan cuisine. Rooms also organized for breakfast and afternoon tea, which with the temperature below zero of the period was a pleasant break to recharge. We thank again for the hospitality and we guarantee the return in a warmer period to also enjoy the outside of the structure, maybe organizing a barbecue.

My partner and I spent New Year's Eve 2016 staying at Podere Le Retine. The kindness and hospitality of Mrs. Maria and her son Roberto were excellent. The location is perfect, nestled among the hills, waking up every morning and having the beautiful landscape of San Gimignano in front of us made our day start pleasantly. As I had told the owner Roberto, I would gladly return to that area and stay with them again very willingly. It was excellent for me.

We had an excellent welcome: upon our arrival, Roberto left in our room a bottle of excellent wine and a traditional sweet typical of the period (bread of the saints). We arrived at the estate during the olive harvest, Roberto and his brother were very helpful in showing us how the harvest took place and explaining to us in every detail the olive processing process. Roberto also gave us very useful directions on where to park, where to eat, and what to visit in San Gimignano and surroundings. We highly recommend Podere Le Retine for the kindness of the owners and its strategic location, very close to San Gimignano but in a green area of typical Tuscan countryside. Ilaria and Giovanni.

There are Bed and Breakfasts, and then there are Bed and Breakfasts. Mrs. Maria and Roberto will welcome you to this corner of Tuscany with the cordiality and kindness that perhaps could only be seen in the past, when pilgrims walked the Via Francigena (which passes close to their Podere Le Retine). Just two kilometers from San Gimignano, don't miss a sunset walk to see its towers. You will finally find a comfortable bed, air conditioning, and a splendid welcome, and maybe if you are friendly enough, Roberto will reward you with some products from his garden and orchard. And then there will be no more story.

I am writing this review on behalf of my parents who had the opportunity to stay for 3 nights at the charming Holiday Home Podere Le Retine located in the countryside of San Gimignano during their visit to Tuscany. The property was welcoming and characteristic, Mrs. Maria was extremely friendly towards them from the start and always available to fulfill all their requests. The room cleanliness was impeccable, the laundry fragrant, and excellent quality/price ratio of the property. In the immediate vicinity, there is a complex of pools and football/tennis courts that can be reached on foot. Furthermore, the beautiful San Gimignano is just a 2 km walk away. Great for a holiday of art, culture, good food, and sports.

Stunning location surrounded by olive trees and at the same time within walking distance of San Gimignano! Excellent cleanliness but above all the friendliness of the family management that makes you feel immediately at ease! For those who want to savor the beauty of the Tuscan countryside, this is the best choice! Highly recommended!

My wife and I were guests at Podere Le Retine for the April 25th holiday. Just 1.5 km from the center of San Gimignano, yet in the open countryside, the location of the property is remarkable, as well as the hospitality and the room. Cleanliness, courtesy, maximum availability, absolutely familiar and pleasant atmosphere. We highly recommend it to everyone and have already recommended it to relatives and friends. We plan to return as soon as possible this summer to enjoy the evenings in the beautiful setting that the garden of the property offers, complete with sunbeds and deck chairs to relax. Unbeatable value for money! Long live Podere Le Retine!
