Tucked away amid the picturesque Chianti Hills, this charming villa offers a peaceful escape. It’s on an agriturismo with five villas and direct access to a beautiful lake where you can swim and sunbathe. Vineyards, olive groves, and forest surround this home – dining alfresco on the patio gives you the chance to admire stunning views. The villa is a simple home-from-home, with an open-plan living and dining space at its heart. You can walk to Gaiole in Chianti and hop in the car to visit nearby castles and wineries – what more could you ask for?
