General
Within the protective walls
of the small town of San
Gimignano no traffic is
allowed. Street by street it
remains medieval and
fourteen towers once owned
by rival, noble families
still remain. Much
restoration has been
implemented to preserve the
precious remains of the
past, and for a small town,
it is rich in works of art,
shops and restaurants.
Location
Il Quelcerchio offers the
unusual opportunity to stay
for a time within this
particular environment. The
accommodation is positioned
in a narrow, side street off
the main Piazza della
Cisterna in the very centre.
This delightful Piazza is
triangular in shape and is
paved with red bricks in
herringbone pattern. Here,
in high season in the open
air, are concerts, operas
and plays, the towers
illuminated - the atmosphere
is enchanting. The apartment
is on the second floor and
looks onto the back, over
cotta rooftops to the
surrounding countryside. The
proprietors own a garage
outside the town walls where
guests can park, free of
charge. From there, they
will be accompanied to the
accommodation and helped
with luggage.
Layout
Entrance is into a
pleasantly furnished sitting
room. The kitchen/diner has
cooker, oven, tall
fridge/freezer and open
fireplace. One twin bedded
room. Lovely double bedded
room with a small balcony.
Small shower room with WC
etc.
