        Best Place to Spend Time with Family!
        Stayed here for a week with my husband, daughter, son in law and 5 year old granddaughter. The views from every window were spectacular!! Clean with a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and great outdoor seating area with a brick outdoor bbq. We had our first breakfast prepared for us by the family that lives in the bottom portion of the villa and served at the outdoor seating area overlooking vineyards and olive groves while the rooster was crowing. What a way to start our week!! By the end of the week we felt like a part of this warm and accomodating family that spans four generations. Our main contact person was Barbara who answered any questions we had as far as recommendations. She also accompanied us when we went truffle hunting with her Dad and their family dog Moira. We were thrilled to find truffles!! This host family is native to the region for generations and therefore a wealth of knowledge and connections should you need any... Our week spent here was much more than we had hoped for! We hope to return again!! xoxo Angie

        Perfection
        We had an amazing stay at this gorgeous family home set in the hills nears San Gimignano. Our host, Barbara, couldn't have been more welcoming or more kind. The home was built by her father and uncle and the craftsmanship was authentic and beautiful. The photos sold us on the house and yet we were still in awe as we looked around the home and stood gazing out the living room windows/doors. The rolling hills, neatly planted rows of olive trees and grape vines, as well as the city of San Gimignano are all part of the breathtaking vistas that great you each time you gaze out of the bedroom, kitchen, or living room windows. If you love nature, there are purple martin nests under the eaves of the roofline where we were able to watch the birds teach their babies to fly. It was mesmerizing. There are chickens and roosters as well and Barbara's mother even brought a basket of fresh eggs for us! The house is well appointed and had everything we needed to prepare meals at home as well as make fresh espresso. In my opinion, Barbara's father could not have chosen a more perfect piece of property nor built a better house to showcase his craftsmanship, the beautiful Tuscan countryside, or the breathtaking silhouette of San Gimignano city. There may be other houses to choose from for a Tuscan vacation, but for me and my family, this surpassed all of our dreams and we feel grateful for our time spent here! If you are considering staying here, just book it right now!

        The trip of a lifetime!
        We spent a week at Podere Lo Spadino with nine family members. Words can hardly describe the beauty of the villa and surrounding countryside. Our host Barbara was lovely and so easy to work with. We took a cooking class from Barbara and she made dinner one night for us, which was one of the best meals we had during our stay. Touring around all day, it was so nice to have dinner at home. Barbara’s father personally built the villa and his craftsmanship is impressive. They grow grapes and olives on the farm and make their own wine and olive oil. Soon there will be a restaurant on the first level of the villa. We could have stayed there for a month and still not have seen and experienced everything the region offers. Thanks Barbara for your hospitality!

        Absolutely Beautiful
        This beautiful property is a labor of love, hand built by the family and it shows. You couldn't asks for a more incredible location and host. Barbara (host) is friendly and was a real pleasure to talk with. She offers an in-home cooking class and offers a meal service. We took the cooking class and loved it. We made a hand made pasta, a ragu, a very good steak and a delicious Tiramisu. We also took her up on the breakfast option and we loved it. During this stay, our Son took advantage of a beautiful spot on the property to propose to his now fiancée. Lots and lots of wonderful memories made here.

        Paradise in Tuscany
        Our group of four couples spent three weeks here as part of a month long trip to Italy. The villa was ideal for our purpose of exploring Tuscany's many hill top towns. Only a few minutes from San Gimingnano, it's central to many other towns making day trips very easy. The pictures accurately reflect the property which exceeded our expectations. What made it even better is the personal touch of our host, Barbara, and her family. She was very responsive to any requests and easily accessible for any questions. We did take advantage of several meals prepared by her and the family. Having a candle lit dinner on the outdoor patio is an experience we won't forget and the food, wine (most from their very own farm) was some of the best we experienced; including Milan, Florence, and Rome. You won't be disappointed. The beautiful views from the villa across the Tuscan country side looking at San Gimingnano in the distance are forever baked in our memories. This was a 5+ star experience.

        Our stay at the villa was a highlight of our nearly month-long trip to Italy. The accommodations were perfect; all bedrooms were spacious, the views were outstanding, and Barbara, the host created the best meals we ate in all of Italy. It was a great space to unwind as much as we wanted and to explore nearby towns--Certaldo was a magical place. The villa surpassed all of our expectations!

        We were a group of 5 ladies. This villa is very comfortable and met our needs in every way. We organized 2 meals for her to cook as well as the pasta making class. All were delicious, the pasta making class was a fun experience. View of San Gimignano is breathtaking and only 10 minutes away. Even the pool had the perfect view of Tuscany! A amazing vacation in every way. Thank you Barbara, we appreciated everything you did. We will always remember this vacation.

        Tuscany was always on our “bucket list” but our stay at Il Podere lo Spadino exceeded our wildest dreams. Pictures do not do it justice. Pictures can not let you smell the honeysuckle or feel the soft Tuscan breeze blowing through the windows. Then there is the food! The amazing food that is prepared by Barbara, the hostess, is beyond compare. Having eaten in the finest 5 star restaurants around the world, I can honestly say that her meals were a delight to all of the senses & would be chosen every time over a fancy restaurant. The Montagnani Family are precious people who opened their lovely home to us & made us feel like part of their family. I can not wait to return again. The town of San Gimignano is lovely & the shopping is far better there than in Florence. With world class views of Tuscany from our windows & a lovely pool on site, we never felt the need to wander too far from our home base. 5 stars is not a high enough rating to give Barbara & Il Podere lo Spadino Villa. We will be back at soon as possible.
