If you’re searching for a rural retreat fit for four, it’s time to stop scrolling. This apartment, set in a restored farmhouse, is an ideal base for a small family or group of friends. With a nod to its age, the traditional interiors blend well with the rustic stone, while the outdoor space is the star of the show. Sun-kissed communal gardens and a shared swimming pool, all making the most of the countryside views – what more could you ask for? When dinner calls, as there’s no oven here, we recommend a trip to nearby San Gimignano for some delicious local cuisine.


Home truths:
*You'll have access to the communal swimming pool and gardens here. They're shared with the building's other residents.
*The swimming pool is only available for use between 26th May and 30th September.
*Your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
*We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's free on-site parking available here.
