Nestled among the gentle hills of Tuscany, the Country House Il Pescille is a beautifully restored ancient farmhouse, set in a landscape of extraordinary beauty where time seems to slow down. Surrounded by centuries-old olive groves, well-maintained vineyards, and lush forests, it is located just three kilometers from the medieval walls of San Gimignano, in a spot that combines the tranquility of the countryside with the convenience of reaching one of Italy’s most charming villages in just a few minutes.

The property retains the authentic spirit of the Tuscan rural world, expressed through original materials, essential architectural lines, and a watchtower that preserves its history. Each space has been thoughtfully reinterpreted to provide a welcoming, elegant stay that is deeply connected to the local area. The rooms, available in various types, are distinguished by panoramic views of the countryside or the towers of San Gimignano, warm and well-kept environments, and the peacefulness that accompanies each awakening. Particularly enchanting is the Tower, an ancient dwelling spread over two levels, featuring a panoramic lounge and views that encompass the entire valley—a unique place ideal for those seeking intimacy and atmosphere.

Mornings are marked by the aroma of warm bread and freshly baked pastries, the refreshing taste of orange juice, and the intense flavors of local cheeses and cured meats. Breakfast, served in the courtyard overlooking the vineyards, is a true ritual of taste, prepared with genuine ingredients sourced from local small producers. A rich and varied buffet celebrates the authentic flavors of Tuscany and gently ushers in the start of each day.

In the late afternoon, the Wine Bar La Dolce Vita opens its doors in a cozy corner beneath the tower. Surrounded by soft lighting and the silhouette of the towers on the horizon, it is the perfect place to enjoy a fine glass of Vernaccia or a red wine from the surrounding hills, perhaps paired with local tastings, all in the tranquil ambiance of sunset.

In the evening, the Braceria welcomes guests within its stone walls, accompanied by the crackling of fire. Here, the cuisine tells the story of the simplicity and richness of Tuscan traditions: grilled meats, seasonal vegetables, locally produced extra virgin olive oil, and hearty dishes meant to be shared in good company. Each dinner is a moment of conviviality, a return to the essentials, where the quality of ingredients and love for the land take center stage.

Outside, a large panoramic pool offers moments of absolute peace, set amidst greenery with sweeping views of the rolling landscapes of Val d’Elsa. It is the perfect spot to relax, read, and bask in the sun while listening to the sounds of nature. The surrounding paths invite invigorating walks, filled with the scents of lavender, the breeze through the olive trees, and glimpses that surprise at every turn.

The Country House Il Pescille is designed for those who wish to experience authenticity, characterized by simple beauty, meaningful silences, genuine flavors, and sincere gestures. It offers ample private parking, free Wi-Fi throughout the property, an electric car charging station, and warmly welcomes four-legged friends.

It is a place for the soul, where Tuscany reveals itself in all its essence: in the changing light of the landscapes, in the wines that tell a story, in the dishes cooked with love, and in the slow rhythms that restore balance. A refuge for those seeking authenticity, harmony, and the pleasure of truly feeling at home.
At Country House Il Pescille, breakfast is much more than just a meal; it is a ritual that celebrates the beauty of awakening in the Tuscan countryside. Each morning, from 7:30 to 10:00, guests are welcomed in the courtyard overlooking the vineyards, where daylight filters through the olive trees and the aroma of freshly baked bread mingles with the scent of flowers and damp earth.

The buffet invites you to be surprised by the authentic flavors of this generous land. Warm bread is served alongside homemade jams and local honey, while fragrant pastries are accompanied by cakes made from scratch. Scrambled eggs with crispy bacon provide a savory and hearty option.

Hotel Pescille - Tuscany Charme

Area Collina

The Country House Il Pescille is situated in one of the most enchanting and picturesque areas of Tuscany, nestled in the lush hills of the Val d’Elsa and just three kilometers from the historic center of San Gimignano. Its location is remarkably strategic: close enough for guests to easily access the village and experience its magic, yet secluded enough to provide tranquility, privacy, and a genuine connection with nature.

San Gimignano, with its towers rising on the horizon, is a true medieval icon recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Strolling through its cobblestone streets, admiring the frescoed facades of the Duomo, visiting museums, and climbing the Torre Grossa for a spectacular view is an experience that combines history, art, and timeless beauty. The village is also a haven for wine lovers, as it is home to Vernaccia di San Gimignano, the first Italian wine to receive controlled designation of origin.

The area is perfect for hiking enthusiasts, photographers, and those who appreciate a good lifestyle. The landscapes, with their gentle contours and colors that shift with the seasons, invite leisurely walks, cycling trails, visits to wineries, and exploration of charming small towns. From Il Pescille, other must-see destinations in Tuscany such as Volterra, Siena, Monteriggioni, and the Chianti countryside are easily reachable, making each day an opportunity to discover new corners of wonder.

Staying in the vicinity of the property also means indulging in the pleasure of slowing down: listening to the wind rustling through the olive trees, getting lost in the scent of the earth after rain, and being captivated by a fiery sunset that paints the towers of San Gimignano. It is in this harmony of nature, culture, and authenticity that the true value of the area surrounding Il Pescille lies: a slice of Tuscany that evokes emotion with simplicity and beauty.
