Like most of the reviewers, we found this place to be very well situated to visit Volterra (a charming hill-top town without so many tourists) and the surrounding rolling Tuscan countryside. The food is excellent and the spring-fed no-chemical pool is very special. Marinella and her team provide care and attention to their customers' needs, in a simple but very... More

We arrived here at 8pm for dinner after a horrible day. The meal and the service erased the bad day we had had and we left feeling wonderful. The hosts are charming and friendly, the place (even in the dark) looked gorgeous, the food was lovely. There is a set menu, which I have no problem with as I like... More

This is such a gorgeous spot. I Usually like 5 star but this place was 5 star For Service, location, Food and charm. Dinners amazing and Great price and Venue in old Chapel. View heavenly. Farm beautiful. Great Base to Explore Tuscany from. I hope to Go back.

We spent 7 nights unwinding in a 12th century chapel on a property in the Tuscany region amongst 1100 olive trees with a spring fed pond for swimming. 5 minutes from the walled village of Volterra and day trips to San Gimignano and Sienna are easily done. Dine each morning and evening in the Chapel amongst friendly staff, and highly... More

While visiting my brother in Florence, my husband, brother and I decided to take a long weekend in the Tuscan countryside. Our stay at San Lorenzo was everything we had hoped for and more. The little apartment was lovely and actually quite spacious with good kitchen facilities, though the food was so good at the podere that we only used... More

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights and loved every minute! Lovely setting with beautiful spring fed pool, which comes with frogs! Simona and Marinella were so helpful and have great suggestions for day trips. We loved Volterra, 2kms uphill from villa, a terrific walk. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay

We stayed one night and decided to end the next days hill country 'Giamingnano' tour by returning for a second night. The second night included a fun evening of cooking some tasty Italian pasta and flan. The Agriturismo is a working olive orchard, with stunning territorial views of mountain and valley orchards. The apartment was spacious. The guest yard area... More

My husband and I spent our 10th anniversary in Italy in April/May of this year. We traveled for 2 weeks throughout Tuscany, Umbria, and the Veneto. Unfortunately, I had budgeted our time so tight that we only spent one night in Volterra. An even greater travesty was not being able to stay longer at Podere San Lorenzo! We drove from... More

We stayed for 2 nights. The first night we had dinner as prepared by that afternoon's cooking class and next day, we attended a cooking class and ate our own cooking. Very enjoyable. These cooking classes promoted conversations amongst the guests both during the class and then over dinner where the local wine flowed freely. We drove into Volterra for... More
