View of San Gimignano from our room and the pool area was amazing. Breakfast prepared by Barbara Gonnelli, the owner, with her homemade jams, pastries and food was delicious! Staff was exceptionally warm, courteous and knowledgeable. I would definitely stay there again and would strongly recommend it.
Liked everything about it!!

We absolutely loved our stay in Podere Sant'Elena! It has a super relaxing atmosphere with amazing views. It is a small and cosy place to calm down after a lot of sightseeing in the area. The Breakfast on the terrace outside is very nice too.

Breakfast was exceptionally good - the combination of the sweeping views out towards the town and the locality of the thoughtfully prepared food made for an excellent breakfast affair.
Ignore previous people's comments about it being a convenient walk to the town from the b and b. It is do-able, but not advisable in hot weather and you need to be careful of the traffic which gets busy on the main roads. Maybe there is another route but we weren't aware of this.

We couldn’t have asked for anything better! The view, the staff, the food, the rooms, the pool! Our stay at Podere Sant’Elena made our Tuscany trip unforgettable! Shout out to the staff who were extremely accommodating and helpful- best recommendations! We’re definitely coming back!
Absolutely nothing. We loved it!!

Beautiful B&B located amongst the vines and the olive trees over looking San Gimignano. Barbara owns a local bakery and as a result, breakfast was incredible, possibly the most amazing chocolate croissant I’ve ever had. A lovely stay indeed.
It would be lovely if they served food in the evenings so we didn’t have to leave!
