Near S.Gimignano apartment with A/C, WIFI,garden, pool in farm building

One of the 2 largest rental apartments of the village, nestled at the heart of Borgo Mummialla, Mostelia is part of a restructured historical village in the middle of a preserved natural reserve. It is a Tuscan style stone farm building with great views on the surrounding country side and Volterra in the background. The apartment is on the ground floor on the garden side and on the top floor on the south side. No neighbors above. The terrace has a table and 4 armchairs for meals outside. The apartment has two large bedrooms, one with two single beds, night tables, chair, commode and a 'Romeo and Juliet' balcony, built-in closet. The bathroom is just outside the room.The master bedroom has a large closet, two chairs, night tables, a large 160x200 bed (Queen) and one en-suite bathroom. The Tuscan style living space is set up with fireplace, stone bench along one wall, couch and armchair, a dining area with 4 chairs and is fully equipped with dishwashing machine, large refrigerator, oven, 4 gas burners and all necessary kitchen tools and china. There is also a storage room with washing machine. The terrace and garden receive the sun until 1 pm in the high season and then it is thankfully in the shade, providing welcome relief on a very warm summer day. The apartment is of utmost quality, well isolated. Tuscan stone pavement, chestnut wood ceiling beams and furnished with the best materials to provide great comfort and pleasure. A tasteful and welcoming 'temporary home' for 4.
The entire land of Borgo Mummialla is privately owned and the little village consists of several Tuscan buildings, a total of 16 owners on grounds of 70 hectares. Between oak forests and olive groves, the village lies in the middle of serene and beautiful nature, in total silence, the perfect place for a relaxing and restful stay. The infinity pool is reserved for owners and their guests. Built in a lovely setting it is most welcome for guests returning from a day's sightseeing or for just spending a day's relaxation by the water. The views and the architecture of the pool itself have sofar received raving reviews. The parking at the entrance of the village (2-3 min. walk) is mandatory for everyone. Loading and unloading of luggage and heavy shopping bags is briefly allowed by the apartments.

Borgo Mummialla was rebuilt over several years and finished entirely in 2012. Rentals were initiated in 2013. It was restructured according to strict building recommendations, in full respect of the laws regarding historical sites. It is a work of art in itself as from ruins, everything stands again the way it was long ago. The quality of all materials used are outstanding and the interiors have all the modern conveniences. Solar spheres are used for plenty of hot water, even when the village is fully occupied. When solar water heating is not enough, the system switches automatically to central heating providing continuous flow of hot water.

Peaceful and bucolic
This was our second visit to this tranquil hamlet. Having been touring some of Italy’s great cities, we needed to recharge away from the hustle and bustle for nine days. The location was perfect for us and the apartment charming. It’s not for everyone. You absolutely must have a car and enjoy more remote albeit beautiful settings. And you must be mobile enough to walk up and down the hill to and from the parking. area. But if you are looking for a place from which to explore the Tuscan countryside and hilltop towns it is perfect and peaceful. There is a little market on the outskirts of San Gimignano where you can stock up on any food essentials and toiletries—the owners were very helpful to us. Our landlady, Daniele, was staying next door and was also very welcoming and provided us with some great recommendations. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

Absolute paradise!!
We are in Italy for three weeks, and spent time in Tuscany before heading north. This property was perfetto!!! The house is charming, the setting is magical, and whenever stressful days are ahead, I will be thinking about this wonderful vacation and our time in Gambassi Terme. The house had everything we needed, and felt like home to us right away. Marco, the person who helped us with check in and check out, was attentive, answered our questions, and was very kind. We really could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish. If you are looking for an exceptional place to spend time in Tuscany that is away from the crowds but close enough to San Gimignano and nearby restaurants to drive - I would encourage anyone to stay here. It is off the beaten path enough to be quiet, but located close enough to tour the region. Thank you so very much!!

Fabulous!
We were overwhelmed with the beauty of this location. Having arrived in mid-October, the property was quiet and felt very private. The vistas are what you dream about when you think of Tuscany. Fabio was gracious enough to meet us and guide us “home”. We highly recommend this property and hope to return some day in the near future.

Happy to take your money but begrudgingly allowing you to stay.
The Borgo Mummialla complex is a beautiful place to stay and having stayed there in other apartments and knowing other families having done the same, we know of many lovely owners renting their lovely apartments - BUT THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM... Unfortunately this is an example of an owner who is happy to take your money but providing the least service and leaving you with the impression that you are intruding on her home and you are begrudging allowed to stay there. - Having paid our deposit (with evidence) there was confusion at HomeAway about what ref no. it went into - she was unhelpful in sorting this out saying that she would not confirm our booking and only got involved at the last minute causing us the distress of believing we would lose our deposit. - Communications re: the stay, always commenting on respecting her apartment - almost a presumption that you were going to trash it. - Ironically the apartment - although adequate - was the least maintained of any others in our 10 year experiences in Tuscany: grimy rattan mats on the kitchen floor, no cupboard space to store food, food going off quickly in the fridge (too warm), broken bathroom light, both shower trays blocked... - No linen change included in the price (apparently stated on the web page). We were expected to arrange ourselves at a charge - in contrast we watched as other families we knew had their linen changed and apartments cleaned and any queries with their owners dealt with in a 'anything we can do for you' manner. - Pool issues: we received an abrupt email from the owner claiming that there had been a complaint about our conduct and that of other English families around the pool - breaking pool rules (jumping in, not showering, taking up too much space by the pool etc). The likelihood being that another owner took exception to children playing in the pool while she was doing her lengths and struck gold moaning to our owner. The implication that we were behaving like yobs abroad ruined any future days around the pool as we seemed to be held responsible for others behaviour and we watched practically every other family (all nationalities)flaunt pool rules. There was also an implication that this would affect any future bookings we had planned and the owner took the further step of contacting the owner we had booked with for the following year which I think was unacceptable. All together the worst experience in our 10 years staying in the area.

Comfort and Beauty in the Tuscan Countryside.
Secluded among gardens and a lush, ancient forest, Mostelia is one of several well appointed apartments in a small borgo between San Gimignano and Volterra. Rest and relaxation are paramount here, however, many lovely small villages and tourist attractions are within driving distance of this beautifully restored historical site that once housed families who worked mining the gypsum found abundantly in the area. If you are fortunate enough to visit while the owner is on site, she will share the history of the community and is most helpful with information and directions to surrounding attractions. You will need a car and a reliable GPS as the property is well off the main path, but once you arrive, you will be in awe of the remarkable view of the incomparable Tuscan countryside from the second floor windows. Mostelia, with two bedrooms and two baths, offers all the privacy one could want and the full kitchen allows for easy meal preparation. There is a washing machine, but like most apartments in Italy, the "clothes horse" is used for drying clothes. I prefer the decadence of the American electric clothes dryers, but realize, when in Italy, I must do as the Italians! Loved our stay, enthralled with the beauty and peaceful surroundings; will certainly visit again! Alexa and Tina (USA)

Wonderful and relaxing
Ideally set within the hills of the Chianti region, this apartment was within striking distance of most of the best attractions Tuscany has to offer. Beautifully peaceful and in well maintained settings help with the special atmosphere, ideal for relaxing and well situated for touring. The apartment is very well equipped and is immaculate inside and out. The pool is also a treat. Thanks for the use of your lovely apartment and hope to return soon.

Thank You so much for opening up your property extra or us! My friends and I had a terrific time in your lovely and comfortable apartment. So cosy, tasteful and welcoming! We visited also the pool area. Must be great in the swimming season. We'll be back for this. My friends and I were impressed with the quality of the buildings and the quiet and serene environment of Borgo Mummialla. A must see and enjoy! Your garden is lovely as well. The rooms large and well equipped. The living area is so pleasant and the kitchen has everything we needed. It was sad to leave again, but we will be in touch for another stay.
