Poggetto Di Montese is a lovely spot for a relaxing few days. We enjoyed being out of town with our own kitchen after all hotels. We stayed in the Le Rondini apartment, and there is a lovely view to San Gimignano, about 10 mins by car, and you are also close to Certaldo and Poggibonsi to train back to Florence (about 1hr on train). The property has a lovely garden with lilos for you to relax and enjoy the view, and a pergola with table and chairs for outdoor dining. We didn't use the separate lounge area very much, but it is well stocked with books about the area, tv etc.
The property is about a 1km from the bus stop, which we thought we would walk to but it is not really a safe walk, with no shoulder, so this is not probably an easy property without having your own transport. We had a hire car, so were easily able to visit local regions, Chianti, San Gimignano, Volterra, Florence etc. Great base to come back to. Marco and his family are lovely and respectful of your privacy.
There is a second apartment on the property without the view of San Gimignano, but a lovely garden area.
