San Martino - Casa Landi

Not a bad place, not a good place - very average! The room was fine though the decor was a bit dated and basic, but there was a shared kitchen facility which was useful. Owner very nice and helpful. It was mid-October and the pool was closed. It's a 10 minute walk into Castellina town through a path in the fields. Would I stay there again? Maybe if the pool was open I would.

No idea what any of the positive reviews are about. This place is filthy, it had a layer of grime over everything, fleas on the moth-eaten blanket, and a wasps next outside by the scummy pool. There wasn't even a proper mattress on the bed. We couldn't stay here a single night and the rude owner charged us for both nights anyway. I had a really long journey so I tried sterilising some bottles for my baby before we left and they came out dirtier than they went in so I couldn't feed her. The kitchen is a joke - broken kettle and hobs. A youth hostel would be better than this.

We came across this place and booked to stay for 1 night as we stopped in the local town. The weather wasn't great while we were there so we couldn't enjoy the pool which was a shame as it looked great! The room was fine, decent size, comfy bed. We thought it was B&B but didn't turn out that way and by the looks of some prev reviews it was prob the best thing. It was a nice place and the surroundings were lovely. Just make sure you have something to make your own breakfast, there is a kitchen area which has everything you would need, it is used by all 4 rooms. The local town is very nice, very pretty, I'm not sure how far it is to walk in to the town from here, the boucher says 15 minutes but we weren't told by the owners how to avoid the hill so a car may be useful.
