Lorenzo Village

Stay in a beautifully restored historic borgo for up to 43 guests, a short drive from magical San Gimignano and within easy reach of both Siena and Florence.

The hospitable Bandini family purchased this hamlet at the end of the twentieth century and have taken many years restoring it with great care and attention. Offering a totally unique holiday experience, or perhaps an enchanting place for a dream Tuscan wedding, each of the apartments has been lovingly furnished with character and charm and are now used for their original purpose as a working farm and guest house.

Available to be exclusively hired, each apartment has its own private entrance and terrace and there’s a glorious swimming pool with idyllic views of the undulating hills and Tuscan landscapes. A sparkling indoor venue provides the ideal space for a wedding reception or could be a fine spot to host a yoga retreat with friends.

Children will adore the play area and football field, whilst parents will appreciate having a restaurant on-site offering mouth-watering evening meals serving authentic Tuscan fare. The bar is also a lovely touch, the perfect place to relax with a glass of chilled Vernaccia from the vineyards of nearby San Gimignano.

Wine-tastings, horse-riding, tennis lessons and guided tours can be arranged by the hospitable owners who frequently visit to help in any way they can. There’s a true Tuscan ambience throughout this beautiful setting with its 9th century church and traditional surroundings.

Charming Colle Val D’Elsa is a short drive away with its restaurants and pretty shops or drive a little further to discover some of the classic Chianti villages within half an hour. The famous towers of San Gimignano are also close by, one of Tuscany’s most famous and charming villages where you can explore the narrow winding lanes and admire the incredible historic architecture.

Florence and Siena are also waiting to be explored, both within easy reach, or head even further south to the exquisite southern Tuscan towns of Montepulciano and Cortona. Whether you are in the magnificent Tuscan countryside you can be sure of incredible cuisine, fine local wines and wonderfully diverse landscapes of hills, woodland, pretty villages and historic towns.
