Casalone in Chianti - a Tuscan villa with infinity pool and AC near Greve
Escape to a private corner of Tuscany. Casalone is a 16th-century, restored stone farmhouse sleeping up to eight guests, set in 4.5 hectares of beautiful grounds, near Greve in Chianti.
Surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and the Tuscan hills, the villa has a large infinity pool, sunny terrace, shady courtyard and lovely garden, all with panoramic views. The entire property, pool and grounds are exclusively yours throughout your stay, making Casalone a wonderful place to relax with family or friends.
Despite its secluded setting, Casalone is ideally placed for exploring Chianti and some of Tuscany's most beautiful towns, villages, medieval hamlets and vineyards.
OUTDOOR LIVING IN THE TUSCAN COUNTRYSIDE
Casalone is ideal for enjoying time outside. Here you can relax by the pool, find a quiet spot in the garden with a book, or savour long lunches and evening meals on the terrace overlooking the countryside.
The extensive private grounds include vines, olive trees and fruit trees. Guests are welcome to pick their own seasonal produce when available. We also provide our own extra-virgin olive oil, made from Casalone's olives - you'll find a bottle waiting for you in the kitchen.
The combination of space, privacy and views makes Casalone particularly special. There are no shared facilities and no other guests at the property.
A CHARACTERFUL TUSCAN HOME
Casalone has been carefully restored whilst retaining the character of its centuries-old origins, with traditional stone walls, terracotta floors, exposed beams and individually furnished rooms.
The villa sleeps up to eight guests in three bedrooms and an area with a sofa bed. It has plenty of space for everyone to relax, both together and separately. It is well equipped for a comfortable stay, with air conditioning, Wi-Fi and everything you need for cooking and dining at home.
As you would expect from a centuries-old Tuscan farmhouse, Casalone has an individual layout, steps, and changes of level. We've included floor plans in the photo gallery so you can see the arrangement of the rooms before booking.
EXPLORE CHIANTI AND TUSCANY
Casalone is close to Greve in Chianti, in the heart of the Chianti Classico wine region.
Spend your days discovering historic villages, visiting local wineries, enjoying lunches in family-run restaurants, or exploring some of Tuscany's most beautiful countryside (hiring an e-bike is a most enjoyable way to do this).
Florence and Siena can be visited on day trips, as can San Gimignano and many of the smaller towns and villages that make this part of Tuscany so rewarding to explore. Further afield, you can also visit Montepulciano and other famous sights in southern Tuscany, coastal Tuscany, and even hilltop towns in western Umbria.
A PERSONAL WELCOME
Casalone is privately owned and managed, and we want you to feel at home from the moment you arrive.
You'll receive a personal welcome from Ester, who knows Casalone and the local area extremely well. We're happy to help make your holiday as effortless as possible, whether you'd like the fridge stocked before you arrive, recommendations or restaurant reservations, a private chef, or help arranging local experiences.
If you prefer complete peace and privacy, that's absolutely fine too. The level of assistance you receive is entirely up to you.
With so much to see and do, many of our guests return to Casalone year after year, and our reviews frequently mention the peace and privacy, beautiful setting, pool and views – as well as the warm welcome they receive.
Whether you spend your days exploring this beautiful region of Italy, or barely leave the villa at all, Casalone offers the chance to slow down and enjoy your time in Tuscany at your own pace.

Fantastic property in a lovely remote setting. Beautiful views and lots of things to do in the area. Some amazing restaurants on the doorstep as well. Ester was incredibly helpful and a super host!
Owner and local host were amazing to deal with. The area is rural and beautiful providing privacy and easy access to the surrounding region. Can't wait to return.
Casalone was a highlight of our trip to Tuscany. Ester made us feel very welcomed into their new home, everything you need is there. It is clean, the beds comfy, and the pool glorious on a hot day after exploring the area. Ester gave us wonderful recommendations and communication was excellent. Just beware of Tuscan roads and drive a small car. Would definitely recommend as a base to explore Tuscany. Thank you Ester for making us all feel so welcome.
Amazing stay without the craziness of people all around you!
Probably some of the nicest views you will ever find in the world. Chef Valentina was recommended to us by the property manager Esther. This was the best decision of the trip. Chef Valentina was amazing especially with her cooking class!
Gorgeous grounds and perfect location. The pool is pure luxury. The house is very functional but a bit spartan as you should expect from a house built hundreds of years ago.
The property is perfect! Exquisite views, privacy and relaxation. The pool is a place you could stay for hours but then you would miss the sweet town of Greve with its shopping and excellent restaurants! Day trips to Florence, Pisa and Bologna were easily done. One family member said she could live at Casalone the rest of her life, I think that says it all!
beautiful villa in the chianti classico hills. great amenities. as indicated in description of villa, there are varying levels of flooring. more exterior lighting would be an asset. also mosquitoes were a problem for some guests inside the house.
The pictures on VRBO do not adequately show the beauty - this place is a 5 star location. The gardens and pool area are breathtaking. The home has everything- it is much larger than we thought. And Ester makes it even more enjoyable- she is so helpful ahead of time with whatever you need. If you are trying to decide where to stay in Tuscany- stay here at Casalone!
What a spectacular and memorable time we enjoyed at Casolone estate in Chianti! It is a gorgeous, sprawling and well manicured property. The home was clean, nicely decorated with comfortable beds and linens. The real highlight was the amazing private pool and views! Just magical! Greve was a short drive to the Co-op for groceries. We enjoyed a local Chianti wine festival in Montefioralle and an amazing dinner at Ristoro L’Antica Scuderia. Highly recommend and would love to visit again! Ester was a gracious and responsive host!
After travelling through Italy for nearly 3 weeks this was the best part of our stay! The Villa is beautiful with all the amenities you could wish for- comfortable beds and linens and a very nice kitchen that we were able to have a group cooking class in. The proximity to Greve is fabulous with several incredible restaurants in walking (or short drive) distance. It is so quiet and peaceful and we were even able to enjoy the light of fireflies at night! The pool might have been the best part of the stay with the most incredible views. Thank you Ester for hosting us, answering all of our questions and giving us the best recommendations. You helped to make the end of our trip magical and very memorable. We hope to be back again very soon!
The week our family spent at Casalone was our most special holiday week in our family's holiday history. Seldom do all factors come together to make a holiday perfect (comfort, cleanliness, luxury, weather, aesthetic beauty, delicious food, relaxation, recreation, nature...etc.) but on this holiday all factors came together to make a truly magical stay for us. Our memories will stretch way beyond the week, summer, year...and will last forever in our hearts. Thank you Barclay for providing the opportunity to share Casalone and experience the beauty of this Tuscan villa. Thank you Ester for your phenomenal service - above and beyond. An outstanding property and location.
Property was wonderful. Everything we could have asked for. Ester was great and made sure we got the most out of our stay with some great recommendations. Was very responsive when there was a minor issue and had it resolved within 30 min.Location is very private. Pool is larger than most and just wonderful. WouldAbsolutely book again.
Incroyable maison:- vue incroyable sur les collines toscanes - Agencement intérieur et extérieur parfait - aucun bruit- tout est mis à disposition pour passer un super séjour - entouré d’oliviers et de vignes - communication au top avec les propriétaires et Ester- Emplacement idéal pour découvrir la région Sans aucun doute une des meilleures, si pas la meilleure location que nous ayons eu.Merci à vous, nous reviendrons.
Unser Sommerurlaub in der Toskana war super schön. Dazu hat natürlich unser Aufenthalt in Greve in Chianti beigetragen. Wir haben uns in dem rustikalen Bauernhaus sehr sehr wohl gefühlt. Es war einfach traumhaft. Tolles Haus, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, tolles Ambiente, super Pool. Sehr zu empfehlen!
Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine à Casalone Greve in chiant avec une super piscine. Nous gardons un magnifique souvenir de ces vacances en famille. La maison est climatisée un plus surtout en plein été, pas de voisinage et très calme. Merci Ester pour votre accueil très chaleureux.
4 Wochen Freude, Ruhe, Genuß, dolce vita. In den Hügeln rund um Greve, zwischen Wein und Olivenbäumen. Am Ende einer Forststraße mit einem wundervollen Garten, traumhafter Terrasse mit einem Blick der atemberaubend ist. Alle Annehmlichkeiten sind vorhanden. Auch das Internet funktioniert hervorragend. Unsere Hündin konnte sich auf dem sehr großen Grundstück frei bewegen. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.
Ester hat uns in Greve sehr freundlich empfangen und uns zum Haus geführt. Dort hat sie eine kurze und nützliche Einführung in die wichtigsten Dinge gegeben. Die Betreuung vor Ort ist sehr professionell. Die Zimmer sind sehr komfortabel eingerichtet und alles was man braucht ist ausreichend vorhanden (Wäsche, Kücheneinrichtung, Holz um ein Feuer im Kamin zu machen, etc.). Die Aussicht über die Hügel der Toscana ist wunderbar. Der Garten und der Pool sind sehr gepflegt. Alles in Allem ist alles so wie in der Beschreibung, nur in der Realität einfach schöner.
Amazing accommodations in the Chianti country side
Barclay and Ester were fantastic hosts catering to all of our needs/questions. Ester met us in Greve and drove us out the property as it would be difficult to find on your own. The property was truly amazing providing a great country setting with the town of Greve only a 5 min drive away for restaurants or just a stroll around the town. We used this location as our launching point to Pisa, Lucca and Sienna, all within an easy 1 hour drive. Unfortunately, the pool was closed for the season. We will definitely need to make a summer trip here to take advantage of all the outdoor amenities. Would definitely stay again at this incredible property.
Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2022
About the host
Hosted by B Morison
I am from Scotland but now live in London. I have two children and love the outdoors, fresh air and sport.
Why they chose this property
The location is incredible if you want peace and quiet with beautiful views. A lot of loving work has gone into the garden and pool. After searching for several years, I knew that Casalone was 'the one' as soon I saw it, and set about turning this unique property into a family home that others could also enjoy.
What makes this property unique
The pool, garden, fields and scenery are stunning, as are the local villages, all close by.
