Like a small old village, Poderi Arcangelo has 4 farm cottages and it is the ideal place where you can rediscover the most real and healthiest pleasures of life. A different holiday which changes the idea of agriturism into a shared, common way of life, to find the enjoyment of being by oneself and with others too. Cottages of Poderi Arcangelo, each one independent with its own swimming-pool but all within 500 meters of eachother, allow you to have the kind of holiday you like most: from the elegant and comfortable room in Capezzano house, to that of a more countrystyle and full of atmosphere in the ex monastry of Arcangelo house, from the independent apartment of San Raffaello house to the little bio-house where you can experience the well-being of a restful sleep full of positive energy. In the evening, then, if you wish, you can have dinner in a romantic, panoramic terrace and taste the typical Tuscan food with wines and products from our organic farm, all home-made by Signora Maria.

Poderi Arcangelo is a real Agriturismo and this is why a holiday here involves all senses and excites in every occasion. Free time becomes a way to follow the different activities of country life and its seasons, like the harvest and the picking of the olives, or you can take part in brief courses on cooking and learn how to prepare Tuscan food, follow guided wine-tasting and visit the cellars, or go walking or biking on paths through vineyards, olive trees and little woods up to the small town of San Gimignano.

Capezzano House: the main farmhouse
The heart of the whole complex, this house goes back to the end of 1600 and is in an area where traces of Etruscan life of the second century BC have been found. Today, after a careful reconstruction which was finished in 2004, we have succeeded in keeping the natural harmony of the place intact, even if we have added every comfort.
Here we welcome our guests on their arrival, and here they find too:
our Restaurant which has been built in the old stables
the tasting room and sales of wines, olive oil and typical
products we produce like Vinsanto, Grappa, jams, organic fruits. Cellars
Panoramic terrace
Departure for excursions on foot or on bike towards San Gimignano Pool 8x16 mt with view on San Gimignano’s towers
Little Bio-House : something different
This comes from an old reconstructed hay-loft according the bio-building principles, using only natural and ecological materials. The use of magnetic correctors as clean-energy and bio-switch to neutralize the electromagnetic fields assure you a cleaned, energized environment where you can reload yourself and find the positive energy of nature. Furnitured with natural Eucalypto wood beds without metallic parts or syntethic glues, but entirely hand made with studied joints, this little bio-house will allow you to feel a deep and complete well-being, for your mind and body. Technical briefing on bio-clearance by Arch. Letizia Lerro and Dr. Grazia Lopedote.

Arcangelo House: the oldest
Farmers who have lived in this house, say originally it was a monastry where charitable monks gave refuge to poor people turned away by the nearby village. Today it is Arcangelo House , the first which in 1993 was turned into agriturismo, though it has preserved its original structure. Surrounded by vineyards and olive trees, this house is very suitable for groups of friends or more families who like to spend a holiday together in full relaxation.
On the first floor there are 9 bedrooms with private bath and original furniture from the late 1800 and 2 equipped kitchens. On the ground floor there is a large dining room with fireplace to be all together, TV , living room and another large kitchen. Cellar, panoramic terrace with view of Certaldo and a gazebo to eat outside.
