Il Casale di Villore.
Perched on a hilltop above fields of vineyards and forests of regal cypress trees stands an ancient farmhouse dating to 1200 and built in the ochre stone so indicative of the Tuscan style. Here, in the very heart of the Chianti, the stress of everyday life recedes into mere memory, replaced by the gentle rush of olive branches swaying in the breeze and the heady perfume of wild flowers. Centrally located near the cities of Florence and Sienna, Il Casale di Villore and its six newly renovated apartments invite you to live the Tuscan dream in this genteel country setting.
Villore’s apartments have all the comforts of a home away from home: satellite television, telephone and internet connection. A barbeque is also available. Villore can be rented as a villa to accommodate up to 28 guests.
Villore is as lovely outside as it is inside. The vast garden surrounding the property leads to a large swimming pool built at the edge of a hilltop plateau and nearly hidden amongst olive trees. On the hillside below, six hectares of cultivated land make for lazy summer afternoons wandering the vineyards or savoring a ripe fig just picked from the tree. Relaxing at poolside, guests can sip a cool drink while taking in the breathtaking view of the valley and the distant outline of charming medieval villages on the horizon.
Walking and bicycle trails radiate from Il Casale di Villore, making it an ideal location from which to explore the Tuscan countryside. We are able to organize guided excursions for those seeking full immersion in the tradition and natural beauty of the region. Nearby stables are a wonderful option for riding enthusiasts and do-it-yourselfers can rent bicycles directly at Villore.
During the summer months, we’ll fire up our centuries old outdoor wood burning oven, offering guests the opportunity to enjoy delicious handmade pizzas and wine tasting under the stars.
Guests can count on Villore’s staff to assist them with all of their needs, from organizing transport to making restaurant reservations. Masseuse services, meal preparation by a local chef and additional housekeeping are all available upon request.
