On Fridays they invite you to lunch with their friends – a gesture typical of a generous family. The setting is bucolic, made up of vineyards, olive groves and views that sweep up to San Biagio and lovely Montepulciano – two kilometres away. This is a simple Tuscan farmhouse whose ground floor housed the animals and whose living quarters – dominated by big country fireplaces – were upstairs. Today the house sits in spacious gardens with mature trees for shade and benches for views. As for the apartments, these are all in the house, those on the upper floor air conditioned for hot nights; thick walls keep lower floors cool in summer. Kitchenettes, all bar one, have hobs not ovens; fabrics are plain and traditional; tiled floors and cream walls are pristine; bathrooms are in perfect order. The 20-hectare estate includes a small lake populated by ornamental ducks (not for the pot!) and a big pool surrounded by rosemary, roses and pergolas for sunloungers: comfort reigns supreme. Architecture and archaeology abound as does the lush and unsung Vino Nobile. Make the most of San Gallo's tastings!
