Olive Vineyards San Casciano in Val di Pesa, Tuscany

Holiday Rental Description

Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, this dreamy abode is nestled right in the heart of the Chianti hills. It's coated with a sense of tranquility from morning til night, enhanced by the completely fenced 3 hectares of gardens which look out across the breathtaking scenery.

That garden is where you'll spend most of your time. It's built around the luscious pool and cosy seating space, a dreamy spot that's made for alfresco dining. Next to the pergola is a picturesque arbor, decorated by rose plants, which is ideal for spending sleepy afternoons with a good book.

When you fancy shelter from the summer sun, the lavish interior lures you into a restful comfort. Lounge in front of the TV, with a film from the DVD collection, refreshed by a cool drink from the fridge.

All that lolling around can prompt the will to explore the local scenery. San Casciano is just ten minutes away by car and showcases authentically Italian restaurants, shops and cafes. If you spread further afield, the vibrant city of Florence is less than forty minutes away.

* Your host provides a free cot and high chair for little ones

* The owner lives in a separate building on the property but you won't see them unless you require assistance
