Property information

ll Segreto di Pietrafitta is a magical place located close to the main gates of the magnificent medieval town of San Gimignano, famous worldwide because of its towers that are still standing today. The structure where Il Segreto di Pietrafitta is located is originally from 1490, and its was recently restored in order to provide all modern comforts, while at the same time keeping a magical atmosphere given by the original architectural elements, such as the wood beamed ceilings and the Tuscan clay floors. Every breakfast you'll be able to enjoy sweet and savory dishes, 100% home made. The huge swimming pool is located right in front of the town's towers, and will leave unforgettable memories, especially during the sunsets, an almost surreal view that our guests get to appreciate. The views of San Gimignano was many times described by our guests as "So beautiful that is seems like a painting." Tuscany is wonderful, and here at Il Segreto di Pietrafitta you'll be able to appreciate its essence.
