Louise Sweden

Everything was just perfect. We had a wonderful stay. Our apartment was really nice, we loved the furniture. it was clean and the view was wonderful. We have had dinner at our stay, the food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect. The staff was really really nice! I booked this trip as a surprise for my boyfriend and they helped me very good with decorating the room. The communication was really good, so lovely and helpfull people. They welcomed us and it felt like we were part of the family. Thank you for everything, we will definitely come back! Kind regards, Hümeyra & Ali

The staff, we felt like visiting family friends. We had dinner twice and it was superb.

Lenka Czech Republic

Beautiful place! Hosts are incredible friendly and clearly liking what they do; pampering their guests. The restaurant is not open every day but San Gimignano is not too far away. On our first day we didn’t want to go out for lunch so they made sandwiches for us and with a bottle of wine we could enjoy lunch on our own terrace. Appartements are spacious and clean with good beds. We only booked two nights, which we could have stayed longer. We have had dozens of accommodations in Italy but this one belongs most certain to the better ones!

The best hospitality in the most beautiful location very close to San Gimignano. Our one bedroom apartment was very spacious with stunning views and had everything we needed. Dinner was perfection, again more stunning views. The pool is large with comfortable sun beds. And the family are super friendly and welcoming, we had such a lovely time.

Our stay was absolutely fantastic. The villa is run by a lovely italian family: who are all amazing and do everything they can to make your stay as comfortable as possible. So much passion and love, it is unbelievable. The appartment was very spacious and clean. The views and pool are perfect. Three nights a week they serve dinner, cooked by the 82 year old grandma. Amazing dinner, amazing wine, amazing family! We will definitely be back!!

Company information

Il Borghetto is divided into apartments of various sizes, all different from each other, obtained in the ancient rooms of il Borgo, some of which always maintain the original colors and walls. In the past centuries the villa has been owned by noble Florentine families who have succeeded each other and at the beginning of the 1900s it belonged to the Royal House of Savoia. It is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and centuries-old trees of elm, cypress, holm, oak, laurel, almond. From all sides you can enjoy magnificent views of the countryside, some apartments have private outdoor spaces such as terraces or gardens others have a splendid view from the windows. The apartments are spacious, all with living room and equipped kitchen, and offer guests a stay in freedom.
