Nestled in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, this restored Tuscan farmhouse promises an idyllic escape. Sure, the traditional interiors may not be to everyone’s taste, but this home has all the key ingredients for a relaxing stay. And the cherry on the cake for us is the outdoor space. A private pool, hot tub, sun-drenched terraces and views for miles – what’s not to love? Location-wise, it’s a short 5km drive to Gaiole, where authentic Tuscan eateries and wine tasting await.
