Location
The property is ideally located in the heart of Chianti, known for its stunning vineyards and scenic landscape. The village of Strada in Chianti (5 minutes) offers an authentic Tuscan bar and restaurant as well as a small supermarket for groceries. Other local markets are a treasure trove of fresh, seasonal produce and certainly worth exploring.
Wine lovers will enjoy touring the many local vineyards, which often serve up hearty Tuscan food, quite different to the food in any standard Italian restaurant elsewhere. There is the opportunity to buy wine directly from the producers to try at home.
The centre of Florence, the capital of Tuscany, is only 40 minutes away. Here visitors can enjoy some of the world's most beautiful art and architecture. The city of Siena, another jewel of the Renaissance is only 1 hour away and makes a perfect day trip. The medieval town of San Gimingnano (55 minutes) is famous for its multiple towers and pretty squares.
The nearest airport is Florence Airport, approximately 30 minutes away by car.
