Wonderful barn in the heart of Chianti

This old barn has been renovated with love and dedication by Claudio and his wife Angelica in order to offer their guests an enchanting place equipped with every comfort, but at the same time
give the feeling of living in the real Tuscany, without losing contact with the tradition, with the teachings of our ancestors, with the true flavor of the slightly grumpy and fascinating
Tuscan one, made up of few words, good wine, good food, breathtaking views with endless sunsets, that from the garden of this spectacular place, you will never finish enjoy.
Outside there is a veranda to relax in the evening and dine in front of the sunset on the private garden.
The villa is totally independent even if it is part of a village therefore on three sides it is absolutely isolated with a private garden and without introspection, inaccessible to anyone else.
The owners live in the adjacent part (the fourth side) and are at your disposal for any need: they produce honey and they will be there to welcome you upon their arrival.
The villa has 4 double bedrooms with en-suite bathroom (one is also accessible for disabled), two are located on the ground floor and two on the upper floor.
The ground floor boosts a laundry room with washing machine, a living room, a large kitchen in a typically Tuscan style with a very long traditional table, induction hob.
Air conditioning everywhere.
On the ground floor one of the bedrooms and a bathroom are suitable for guests with limited mobility

Under The Tuscan Sun!!!🌞
This beautiful property exceeded our expectations! We were traveling with three other couples and the house was exceptionally clean, roomy and had everything we needed. Words can’t properly describe the beauty everywhere you look. On our last evening we were treated to the most amazing sunset ever! Our sweet host Claudio and Angelica were very helpful and generously shared fresh eggs and honey from their chickens and honey bees. We would book this property again in a heartbeat!!

Outstanding home - every detail attended to- fully stocked kitchen- a basket of eggs from their chickens and their own honey on the kitchen table for our arrival- stunning property about 10 minutes outside of Siena- very peaceful and relaxing- 4 large bedrooms with en-suite baths-Angelica greeted us and explained how everything worked- she is delightful. Only complaint was the weather (end of April) lots of rain. No dryer - hard to dry clothes on a rack and couldn’t use the jacuzzi. Also Siena was extremely crowded with a definite lack of parking- This home is a little piece of heaven on earth.

Our Tuscany visit
We LOVED our stay in the Villa!! Angelica was a fabulous host. The home, the gardens, the views… words cannot describe how beautiful it all was!! There were three couples traveling together, the house was perfectly equipped with everything we needed. Our sunset dinner in the garden followed by time in the hot tub was the perfect way to end our last day there! ❤️

Exceeded expectations
From the moment we set eyes on this place, we knew that we chose well. Not only is it exquisitely beautiful, but it is very comfortable. The setting is spectacular. The owners who greeted us were friendly. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were good too with plenty of hot water in the showers. The kitchen was well-equipped. Al fresco eating made it perfect. We hated to leave and would recommend others to book without any questions.

Great house and lovely hosts
The house was an excellent fit for our group, plenty of seating, beds and bathrooms. And beautifully clean and well maintained. The hosts were very responsive; we lost heat and power due to a storm, and they addressed it right away. A car is required, the house is 15 minutes from Siena. Children might enjoy the ducks, and the view was amazing. Thank you Angelica and Claudio!

Sienna countryside
We were greeted upon arrival and the host was readily available for any of our needs. We were pleasantly surprised with fresh eggs and the host’s own homemade honey. The property itself was VERY tastefully decorated, very clean and the accommodations were top notch. The views were spectacular and every room inside and outside the house was comfortable. There were 6 of us and we all enjoyed our stay!!! Would love to return some day !!! Marlene USA

Incredible peaceful retreat
We LOVED this place! The proximity to Siena (10 mins), the views (rolling hills in every direction, incredible sunset), the outdoor covered patio where we enjoyed a chef prepared dinner and the ample space inside for our party of 5 plus toddler. There were chickens and ducks on the property and a swing set. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure was great with plenty of hot water. We would absolutely stay here again!
