An enchanting cottage for a perfect vacation

Leccino is one of three houses that are part of Podere Pornanino, a 36-hectare organic farm producing extra virgin olive oil. Pornanino is located in the Gallo Nero region, in the heart of Chianti, between Radda, Castellina and Vagliagli and is surrounded by olive trees, wooded hills and two small rivers.

The main farm house and the two stone barns, Leccino and Capannino, have been restored and refurbished to excellent standards all with the same warm and welcoming style.

Leccino is an independent house, very welcoming and comfortable. It includes a double bedroom with bathroom (bath and wall-mounted shower), a fully equipped kitchen and a large living room with dining area. The door opens onto a private terrace and garden overlooking the olive groves, ideal for enjoying the morning sun and the cool evening breeze. The terrace is equipped with table and chairs for outside dining and deckchairs for relaxing. The house has its own central heating system, mosquito nets on the windows, safe, satellite TV, DVD player, high speed internet connection / Wi-Fi, hairdryer, dishwasher, and stereo with CD player.

A very well maintained garden surrounds the houses. Nearby we find the swimming pool (6 x 12 m) with spacious solarium terrace, furnished with deckchairs and parasols. The swimming pool is open from mid-May until the end of September and is shared by the tenants of the houses and occasionally by our family.

There is a separate utility room with washing machine for the exclusive use of the accommodation.

Pornanino is accessible by 5 km of very well maintained unpaved road (strada bianca). The medieval town of Castellina in Chianti with an excellent choice of restaurants, canteens, coffee bars, Coop supermarket, post office, banks and a variety of other shops is 5km away, Florence 32kms and Siena 18km. San Gimignano, Volterra, Monteriggioni, Arezzo, Cortona and many other attractive towns are easily accessible by car. The property is 9 km from Radda in Chianti, another beautiful medieval hilltop town with its cobbled streets and also a good choice of restaurants and shops.
