Farmhouse in the heart of the real chiantishire

Our stay in Castellina in Chianti was just what we were looking for...very relaxing, super clean and very convenient. The house has a nice layout that feels spacious. The patio has great views of the valley. The kitchen is well stocked with supplies if you want to cook, which we did a few nights, but the small town that is a few minutes away, has amazing restaurants to enjoy as well as lots of Chianti win, if you like. They also have several bottles of wine you can purchase at a fair price if you just want to stay home, relax and enjoy the views.

We will definitely come back and stay here again in the near future.

This is a lovely casa in a great location accessible to most locations by car. I visited with my husband and two children 9 and 12. We did day trips to Pisa (including the beach by the marina), Siena, Florence, and San Gimignano. We also visited Castello di Melleto, where we did a tour and wine tasting. Lastly we spent time at piscina il mulino di quercegrossa a lovely place with several pools.

There is a Co op in town which stocks most things and lots of restaurants to choose from. Lots of information provided and questioned answered by hosts promptly.

This farmhouse is tucked away in an idyllic location - and yet only a few minutes from Castellina. The house is very well equipped and perfect for having a relaxing holiday.

All of the photos accurately reflect the beauty of the property, and some! We spent two wonderful weeks at this enchanting villa. The location was perfect for us to traverse Tuscany. The villa became our home and the town of Castellina in Chianti became our neighborhood after a day Tuscan travels. Daniele and his mother were incredibly gracious hosts. They even went out and purchased a fan for us when higher than usual temps came through our last few days. We were very sad to leave, but we took many fond memories with us. We hope to return in the future!

We fantasized about this place for months, based on the pictures and I thought we would be disappointed because our hopes were so high. But we weren't; it was even better than the pictures. The gravel driveway up to the property winds through the family's vineyard; the family makes and sells lavender bath and home products; and the family cat would come visit. It was quiet, peaceful and views that went for miles, the only sounds were birds serenading you, and an occasional barking dog. The property was modern and fully equipped, absolutely perfect. The location is perfect to explore Tuscany: Castellina is a sweet small village that feels authentic and still a bit undiscovered; Florence, Siena, San Gimiagnano are easy drives. We've stayed at many VRBO rentals, and this one is easily the best. We'll be back for sure. One word of advice is to make it to Coop grocery store in Castellina by 20:00 (8pm) before it closes, to get staples you need for the house.
