  • Located 2 miles from medieval San Gimignano with shops and restaurants
  • Apartments can sleep up to 4 people

Set on a verdant Tuscan hillside surrounded by vineyards, just two miles from the renowned medieval towers of San Gimignano, is this classic farmhouse that has been restored and refurbished to a high standard. The altitude of the property (approximately 500 metres above sea level) means that even in the heat of midsummer you are kept cool by pleasant breezes. The Romanesque church of Cellole, with majestic cypress trees in its grounds, is an easy walk from the house.

In the lawned garden there is a pretty swimming pool (normally in use April to October) framed by a paved terrace with sun loungers, a shared barbecue, laundry and parking facilities. The owner, Giuseppe Moschi, and his family personally oversee the maintenance of the property and live on the premises. There are seven apartments featuring original characteristics, five are one bedroom and can sleep up to four people, and two have two bedrooms sleeping up to four people. Each apartment has its own shaded patio with a table and chairs, ideal for outside dining in warm weather whilst enjoying the magnificent views of San Gimignano's medieval towers.

The hotel has 7 rooms. Casa Vacanze Le Cellole has 7 apartments. Minimum stay 7 nights (Sat - Sat).

About the location

San Gimignano is a remarkable medieval town and UNESCO World Heritage Site, set on a particularly high hilltop in the Tuscan countryside. This fortified marvel is the historic equivalent of a modern high-rise city, with steel skyscrapers replaced with dizzyingly high ancient towers, and noisy alleyways swapped for uneven cobbled lanes.

The town’s 14 towers are a fraction of the 72 that once stood, but the impact is still impressive, with almost every square and street watched over by these soaring monoliths. For those with a head for heights, the tower tops offer unrivalled panoramas of the town’s winding lanes and the beautiful surrounding countryside. The 14th-century Torre Grosse is the best of these, and offers spectacular views from more than 170 feet above the streets. For those wanting to immerse themselves in history, the wonderfully tranquil Rocca de Montestaffoli is a must. This crumbling structure was once a fortress and a convent, although now it offers an atmospheric wild garden and one modest tower, with surprisingly good views over the countryside. If you’re in the mood for shopping, make sure you look out for some of the artisan workshops hidden in the town’s lanes – local photography and handmade ceramics are just some of the wares available.
