La Fornace di Racciano is a lovely Bed&Breakfast a short distance (2, 8 Km) from the historical centre of medieval San Gimignano.

It consists of a typical Tuscan country house surrounded by a large flowery garden. In the past "La Fornace di Racciano" was a furnace that produced lovely terracotta pottery using locally dug clay. Today, the building has been carefully renovated to maintain the typical features of the past, besides the modern comforts of nowadays.

La Fornace di Racciano consists of seven comfortable rooms and four apartments, two of which are located in the ancient hamlet of Racciano:

- Two apartments in the ancient hamlet of Racciano, approx. 100m from the country house of La Fornace di Racciano.

All rooms and apartments are provided with private bathrooms, heating, air conditioning, satellite TV, minibar, and Wi-Fi Internet connection.

This lovely Bed&Breakfast offers:
- Delightful tasting of certified local products such as DOP ham, salami and pecorino cheese of San Gimignano, bruschetta, fresh vegetables seasoned with precious extra-virgin olive oil, best foil with the excellent wines of San Gimignano Chianti and Vernaccia;

Nous étions déjà venus il y a 4 ans et on voulait absolument revenir car on avait vraiment beaucoup aimé. Cette année encore tout a été parfait: l'accueil du personnel et sa gentillesse, la beauté de la maison et du paysage, la qualité du petit déjeuner, le plaisir de la piscine et de ses transats, etc. Un grand merci à Cristiano et Viviana pour tout. Nous espérons revenir une 3ème fois pour aller visiter les caves de Chianti que nous n'avons toujours pas été voir. A San Gimignano, ville magique, nous recommandons le restaurant Fuori Porta où l'on mange particulièrement bien. Encore merci.

In the peaceful countryside just outside San Gimignano, a quiet and welcoming accommodation. The managers are helpful and very attentive. Large and clean room. Outdoor space and pool well-kept and well-organized. Abundant breakfast with local offerings. Excellent value for money.

Abbiamo soggiornato pochi giorni fa presso la struttura La Fornace di Racciano. Siamo stati accolti dai gestori con un caffè e acqua fresca, vista la giornata caldissima. Abbiamo subito notato la bellezza della struttura e la magnifica vista su San Gimignano. I gestori sono molto cordiali e non hanno avuto nessun problema ad accogliere il nostro cane, un Alaskan Malamute di taglia grande. Le torte fatte in casa e i prodotti tipici offerti per colazione sono di ottima qualità e veramente gustosi. La posizione per noi è ottima, a pochissimi chilometri da San Gimignano ed immersa nella collina. La sera si può ammirare il paesaggio delle torri illuminate e un magnifico cielo stellato. Ringrazio e saluto calorosamente i gestori e tutto il personale.

Gentile Silvia, tante grazie per la bellissima recensione che ci avete fatto. Ci ha fatto molto piacere avervi nostri ospiti e speriamo davvero che tornerete a trovarci. Tanti cari saluti dai gestori e il personale.

Un team accogliente sorridente e molto disponibile, delle persone con l'accoglienza nel cuore! Un posto caloroso dove la natura incontra le comodità ma senza far battere il polso a 300 semplicemente accogliendo l'anima e dondolarla un po' e quando poi si vuole ripartire la cittadina è verosimilmente raggiungibile in due passi.

Struttura molto carina in una posizione strategica, ai piedi di San Gimignano. Cristiano, il proprietario, è una persona eccezionale, di una disponibilità assoluta. La colazione è eccellente, la piscina immersa nel verde nel silenzio più assoluto, un sogno.

Abbiamo soggiornato presso questo B&B molto romantico e suggestivo. Dalla nostra camera si poteva godere una vista su San Gimignano da cartolina. Ottima la gestione e la collaborazione dello staff sempre disponibili per qualsiasi informazione. Consiglio a tutti di soggiornarvi.
