Hotel Fattoria Voltrona (San Gimignano, Italy)

In the summer of 1984 when the first guests slept in the habitable section of the house the word "farmhouse- agriturism" was totally unknown to farmers as well as to their guests. It was basically a "naive" phenomenon: people looking for new routes to explore... Today, the Fattoria Voltrona farm in San Gimignano is no longer family-run; the amount of work does not make it possible. The different productions and our activities require a range of skills and abilities that only a close-knit and well assorted group of people is able to express. We went from the family subsistence company to the so-called multifunctional farm, where land cultivation, livestock and forestry are complemented and supported by the accommodation offer We have been offering a more and more complete rural hospitality service for more than 30 years by constantly looking for balance between the spontaneity of the '80s and the changing needs of visitors. A balance that can now be better defined under the name of rural hotel or spread rural hotel.
