Nestled into the hillside in the heart of Chianti, this home promises a tranquil stay. Granted, the traditional interiors may not be everyone’s cup of tea, and there’s no air conditioning here – but the outdoor space is sure to be a popular spot with all and the private pool is the perfect place to cool off. If you’re not lounging on the sun-kissed terraces or enjoying an alfresco meal, there’s lots to explore locally. Here, you’re ideally based for visits to Florence, Siena and San Gimignano – though don’t overlook Greve, a vibrant small town a picturesque twenty-minute drive away.

Home truths:
*There's no air conditioning here, but fans are provided for guests' comfort.
*The main bedroom is on the mezzanine level and semi-open to the space below, so privacy is limited.
*Three bedrooms can be set up as doubles or twins on request.
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
*The swimming pool, open between April and September, isn't fenced. If you're bringing children, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. On-site parking is available here.
*If you're travelling by plane, Florence is the nearest airport – it's a forty-seven-minute drive from this home.
