There’s lots to love about the location of this villa. It’s in the heart of Chianti (that world-renowned wine region) and close to cosy village eateries in Barberino Val d'Elsa. The historic cities of Florence and Siena are also within day trip distance, so you’ll never be short of things to see and do. Perhaps you’d prefer an afternoon by the pool, admiring the sweeping views as you swim. Or maybe a leisurely lunchtime barbecue on the terrace. Whatever your plans, this elegant house is a special place to stay, where the refined rooms invite you to really relax.
