This stone-built villa in the heart of Chianti boasts stunning views of the valley and vine-clad hillsides from almost every room. Perfect for two couples wanting to holiday together without crowding each other, each en-suite bedroom feels self-contained, with a kitchenette for morning cuppas. Meanwhile, the free-flowing living spaces downstairs and a private pool with a view are all about socialising. Fringing one of the main Chianti towns, Castellina (a 7-minute drive), there are bars and restaurants close by for evenings out, and you’re just a short drive from Siena and Florence (both less than an hour away).
