With our 1 year old baby boy, we spent 10 days at the Fattoria. It's true you don't have the accomodation of a 5* hotel but this not what we looked for, we wanted to discover Tuscany. If you're lookin for the same thing, this is the place you need to go to. The views from the fattoria are breathtaking, each night my wife and I spent some time on the hill, in the garden, just contemplating all that beauty (with some local wine, of course). Swimming pool is perfect, great also to have an area at the pool dedicated to kids. Rooms are very typical, we found this charming! You have close to everything you need.
Location is also a big +, 15min from Florence and within 30 min you can reach Siena/S Gimignano.
We were welcomed by Ivana. She was very helpful and kind. Simply impossible for us to understand some reviews where people talked about being rude. Probably a misunderstanding!
This is a place we fell in love with! We will, for sure, come back in the future.
Maybe a (tiny) remark, we found the breakfast ok with fresh fruit, yoghurts, bread etc but this could be improved (with very few implications) by offering eggs in the morning. Also the coffee, where in the world can you drink better coffee than in Italy?, was not that great.
This is really the only minus we could come up with!
Some reviews are just not honest (otherwise la Loggia would be at the top of the list in S Casciano) but this is fine for us, not too many people should know about this pearl otherwise booking might become tough in the future :-)
