High on a Tuscan hillside, this enchanting castle retreat offers jaw-dropping views across Chianti’s rolling vineyards and olive groves. Surrounded by nature and centuries of history, it’s a place to slow down, sip local wine produced at the home, and savour the peace. With an independent wing of the castle to yourself, along with a private pool and a hot tub, you'll have three floors to spread out across. Inside, you’ll find rustic charm with elegant touches, a large kitchen for leisurely meals, and cosy living spaces to unwind. You’ll need a car to explore nearby towns, and two of the bedrooms are on the snug side. But with views like this, you won’t want to spend too much time indoors anyway. This is Tuscany at its timeless best.
