Nestled in a quiet Chianti valley, this rustic apartment in a classic stone farmhouse makes a great Tuscan base. The interiors are traditionally Italian, with exposed beams, terracotta tiles, arched feature walls, and simple, well-kept furnishings – not flashy, but warm and authentic. Outside, the shared pool, wood-burning oven, and private terraces make it easy to unwind or enjoy al fresco meals. The real highlight is the location – it’s surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and woods, but it’s only a short drive from Siena and Rapolano.

Local guide
About Siena Province
Step back into medieval Italy with a trip to Siena. The city is famous for its contrade, the maze-like historic districts that haven’t changed a beat in over a hundred years. Join the crowds in July and August when Siena’s famous Palio horserace thunders around the Piazza del Campo, or visit outside of the peak summer months for a calmer experience. Siena, rich in tradition, is also a great spot...
