Montespertoli Pieve di San Pietro in Mercato Hotels

"The property was great particularly the outdoor areas and pool with plenty of big tables, pool lounges etc. We booked the whole property and so had all of the separate parts. Each room or set of rooms had their own kitchen and sitting area. This meant there wasn’t a big kitchen/sitting room for all 10 of us. It wasn’t a problem because the weather was perfect and we were outside all the time. There was a regional power cut while we were there and Agnese and her family were wonderful in help us get through that. They were responsive and extremely helpful. "

"Family of 5 from the UK with three teenage daughters. We stayed for 8 nights in August when the temperature was up to 37C most days. The property is beautiful, full of understated Italian charm and with views across to San Gimignano that are captivating. Whilst the house has no air conditioning, it remains cool during the day if care is taken with blinds and windows. At night, the fans in each room ensured that we all slept well despite the daytime heat. The pool was lovely to swim in when the heat became too much. We spent hours sitting in the shade reading books, whilst admiring the views. Siena, Florence and Volterra were only an hour’s drive away, and we would recommend heading to San Gimignano for the evening when the crowds reduce, restaurants are easier to get into, and the lighting is stunning. We can’t recommend this property too highly. We met both Mariangela and Francesco during our stay who couldn’t do enough to make us feel welcome and help with any questions."

"We had a wonderful time! The pool is amazing with an incredible view. The staff went out of their way to make our stay fantastic, especially our server Leonardo. The breakfast was great with eggs to order and everything freshly prepared. Highly recommend!"

"This was a stunning castle to stay in. The frescoed ceilings were gorgeous. Loved every minute that we were there. The staff were wonderful. The only thing i would recommend is to add a vending machine and maybe to offer pastries in thr morning. "

"Beautiful location, the staff were very nice and buffet was great. I definitely recommend if you are in the area looking for a beautiful, relaxing vacation! "
