Fewer names conjure up the magic of Tuscany more than San Gimignano and the Fattoria di Monteoliveto occupies a prime location within walking distance of the town. In the past, the noble families of San Gimignano vied to outdo each other in their show of wealth by building taller and taller towers. These towers still dominate the skyline and can be seen from parts of the grounds of Monteoliveto, as well as all of the surrounding area. Set in the heart of Chianti, San Gimignano features on virtually everyone’s list of places to visit and offers a wealth of interesting shops, restaurants and bars, as well as an impressive list of historical treasures.
The Fattoria di Monteoliveto occupies a much sought-after location, on one of the roads leading to San Gimignano and within 15 minutes (800 mts) easy walk from the centre. The building itself is a beautifully restored old farmhouse, now converted into seven apartments and surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Each apartment has a designated seating area in the gardens with its own table and chairs and the swimming pool offers panoramic views across the surrounding Chianti hills.
The apartments themselves are comfortably furnished with Italian taste and style and are well-equipped, with hairdryers in all bathrooms, English-speaking Reception service and complimentary wine-tasting on site. Public tennis courts are available nearby and private car parking is available on site.
