What's not to love about this traditional villa? For starters, there's a garden with views of the surrounding hills. Complete with a private swimming pool, outdoor ping-pong table, and covered terrace ideal for alfresco dining, we can't think of a better spot to enjoy the Tuscan sunshine. The interiors are breezy if a tad dated, but there's plenty of space for families and friends to get comfortable. And you can't beat the location. Chianti is a haven for wine aficionados, history buffs, and outdoor enthusiasts. Greve in Chianti is just 10 kilometres away, while Florence and Arezzo are about an hour's drive – both perfect for day trips.
