The villa was exactly as described and the location was excellent for our events between Volterra and San Gimignano as well as to Siena and other areas. The grounds and pool were beautiful, superbly kept and the owners were very helpful and informative.

The property is in a good central position within easy reach of Pisa, Florence and Sienna and of cause - Chianti. Stunning views across the whole area including San Gimigano. The villa was newly refurbished and was in great condition with a very nice pool and garden. The interior is spacious and has all modern equipment and some impressive touches like the Jacuzzi. We stayed for one week as a family of 4 and enjoyed our time there - some good restaurants in the area too. On the downside, the villa does not suit a young family like ours as the 3 bedrooms are spread over 3 floors so if you want your children nearby, then you have to use the sofa bed in the upstairs living area. Sleeping upstairs in summer is HOT but you cannot open the windows due to the number of biting insects and lack of window nets. Take a mozzi net or lots of repellent. Would certainly return or recommend

The Villa is very beautiful and quite rustic. If you want to experience living in the mountains in Tuscany this is the place to stay. The house keepers are wonderful and will cook for you and share local places to go and see. The area is so peaceful and so beautiful. There are GREAT restaurants near by, you can do wine tastings, cooking class, you are 15-20 minutes from Florence. It is a wonderful vacation if you want peace and quite and to experience Tuscany as its best. The villa is expensive and there are other options that are less expensive. This villa however is very private and that is a big plus. All in all it was a GREAT vacation just a bit expensive!

The property was great! We had everything we needed . The apartment was very spacious and the grounds and pool excellently maintained. The location was perfect- a stones throw from montalchino. We will definitely be back.

I had one of my best holidays in villa Molino Santa Lucia. The location, the house, and the nature were the perfect ingredients for a relaxing Tuscan holiday. The villa is very close to San Gimignano town where there is a nice supermarket and the best gelato in the world. Very easily you can drive to Florence, Pisa and Siena. Sometimes if we were too tired to cook we asked Lorena to cook for the 6 of us. She is a brilliant and friendly chef. Having Lorena the first night we got there was a nice little treat after the exhausting journey. The villa is big and there is a small grill for BBQ. We spent most of the time on the comfortable lounge chairs near the pool. There is also a ping-pong table and a small useful library with travelling books, so if you forget to buy a guide book don’t worry, there are many there. The only bad thing was the steep dirt road between the gate and the villa. Driving up sometimes was a challenge. The nature really impressed me. The flowers and the insects of the garden added bright colours to the green of the little wood that surrounds the house. Valeria A. -London, UK

Nicely situated between Pisa and Florence, within short driving distance from a lot of beautiful towns and villages. Not possible to walk to the nearest village, due to very narrow road and no pavement. On the whole, a very good experience in Tuscany.

If you are searching for peace and privacy, this is the place to be. The house is located on a small hill in a beautiful landscape with no houses nearby. The location is more beautiful than the pictures show you. The pool is perfect, the house is very well equipped and nicely decorated. We had a perfect vacation!

Our family had a wonderful time staying at Fattoria Pogni for a week in early July.
The location is ideal to explore all of Tuscany. In eays day-trips, we covered Florence, Sienna, Pisa and the Montalcino/Montepulciano regions.
The property itself is wonderful - our two bedroom unit was well appointed and the grounds are very nice; with a lovely pool, tennis court and field for the kids to run around in.
Massimo (the owner) is extremely gracious and helpful. He had gifted us a few 'starter' items like olive oil, some fruit and wine. He was able to provide excellent dining recommendations on the evenings when we felt like going out (both casual dining and fine dining) and he is around to answer other questions you may have.
Overall - a great vacation and we are thinking of returning next year with more of our extended family.
