House in a typical village in the heart of Chianti

Apartment located in a pretty and peaceful village on the top of a hill in the Chianti area which overlooks a landscape of olive trees, vineyards and woods. The village is located in a WWF protected area "Bosco di Sant'Agnese" where the cypresses grow spontaneously.
The structural characteristics of a typical country has been scrupulously respected, creating a typical and unique atmosphere of the past. The oldest part is the 1100 AD tower. c.
There are two large parking lots in the village and there are no cars on the small streets, except for loading / unloading luggage.
Available to guests and shared with the other villagers, we have a completely enclosed swimming pool (12x6m maximum depth. 1.50m) and a tennis court (fenced) in synthetic grass.

Capanna apartment
It is located in the highest part of the village
It was originally a barn
100mt from the swimming pool and tennis court
On 2 floors, on the ground floor equipped kitchen and living room.
Upstairs bathroom and 2 bedrooms
It has a garden on 2 sides with olive trees
In front, a 6x8mt terrace lit by the sun until sunset.
Here there are chairs and deckchairs, a table with umbrella and a barbecue.

Peace and tranquility

Our stay in this enchanting little village was just perfection. Our renovated “barn” was so cozy and comfortable, Our host, Veronica could not have been more attentive to our needs (it was quite cold when we were there and she made sure we had fuel, etc to stay warm). She also brought us wine and olive oil from her family and a delicious tart. It was peaceful, beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. Thank you Veronica and Massimiliano for sharing your magical little corner of Italy! We certainly hope to return!

Amazing stay in hilltop village

We loved this charming, rustic house (part of a bigger building with other accommodation). It's part of a tiny village at the top of a long track through olive groves. Fantastic views and a wonderful place to relax. Thoroughly recommend.

I think if I ever stayed in Chianti Classico again, I would ask for this exact same place. The views from the mountaintop were incredible, olive trees, everywhere, thousand year old property, it doesn’t get much better than that!

Wonderful house in a fantastic place

We spent a great time in this little spot in the middle of Chiantis forests and vineyards! Perfect calm nights, nice surrounding for walks and Toskanas attractions nearby. In the evening we loved sitting around the fireplace. A very special thank to Veronica and her warm welcome! Everything had been prepared for a first evening-including homemade wine and olive oil. We felt very much at home and had a great time. Hopefully we will be back some day! Best regards!!!

Perfect getaway in Tuscany

Wow! We could not be more pleased with our stay at Castellina in Chianti. We were greeted warmly, with welcome gifts (wine, olive oil, a delicious tart, and fresh fruit). The property provided us incomparable vistas from the generous terrace and along shady hiking trails. We were comfortable in the spacious living area and bedrooms. All amenities were in great working order and gave us just the respite we were seeking. Plus, after a long day of sightseeing in nearby Florence, the beautifully located swimming pool was the perfect way to cool off. We want to return and will recommend this lovely gem of a spot to our fellow travelers and friends!

Very hot nights in a beautiful environment

The village Il Granaio is picturesque and the view is stunning. You also have this great view in the pool and on the tennis court. The house itself has everything you need for a relaxing time, but the equipment is scatchy. There is a very good induction cooker, but the AC in the master bedroom, which is super loud and super big is cooling only one room in the house. You can't close the window, so it's a huge waste of energy! The host Veronika was friendly, helpful and flexible.

Zeer compleet huis. Met grote ramen. Als het minder weer is, heb je leuk uitzicht over het dorpje. Mooi zwembad geen schaduw. Tuin voldoende plek om zon of schaduw te hebben.Het lijkt of je een vrijstaand huis huurt maar je hebt directe buren. Rechts en links. Je kunt het treffen of niet. Binnen doodstil.

Tranquillité au milieu des vignes et des oliviers

Super endroit à l'abri du monde, dans un paysage toscan enchanteur. La maison est charmante tout en restant très simple. Nous avons profité de la terrasse, du tennis et des environs de la maison sans devoir toujours prendre la voiture. Nos deux adolescents, même sans télé, mais avec un excellent wi-fi, y ont également trouvé du charme et du plaisir. Un excellent endroit pour toute la famille !

Sehr nettes Urlaubsdomizil

Wir haben uns prima erholt in diesem grandiosen Ferienhäuschen mit großer Terrasse und tollem Ausblick über die Toskana. Viele attraktive Ausflugsziele sind in der Nähe. Noch näher: Pool und Tennisplatz. Super! Das Haus selbst ist auch sehr schön und praktikabel eingerichtet. Natürlich gibt es auch Kritikpunkte, aber sie konnten unser sehr positives Gesamtfazit nicht beeinflussen; wir nennen sie trotzdem: Zu einer "fully equipped" Küche gehören unserer Meinung nach auch ein Geschirrspüler und eine Filter-Kaffeemaschine - beides fehlte aber. Und wozu gibt es Töpfe, die nicht für den Induktionsherd geeignet sind - die passenden mussten wir durch Ausprobieren herausfinden? Ein Fernseher hätte auch nicht geschadet, obwohl wir ihn dann in der tollen Urlaubsumgebung doch kaum vermisst haben.
