Calm Chianti

Wine-lovers, this one’s for you. This 17th-century villa sits on a wine estate in Chianti, so you can take a tour and enjoy tastings right on your doorstep. The villa is located between Gaiole and Castelnuovo Berardenga, surrounded by rolling countryside and vineyards – the views are stunning. Admire the scenery while swimming in the private pool and picking fresh vegetables from the garden for an alfresco dinner. There’s a built-in barbecue to cook on, and a fully-equipped kitchen inside the traditional, rustic villa.
