Amazing stay in hilltop village

We loved this charming, rustic house (part of a bigger building with other accommodation). It's part of a tiny village at the top of a long track through olive groves. Fantastic views and a wonderful place to relax. Thoroughly recommend.

Absolutely fabulous

We arrived to a very beautiful small village. The location was stunning and the property was very inviting. The local town is about 7 minutes drive and has everything you need.The owners were amazing and the welcome basket was just delicious.Playing tennis and swimming with views of the rolling countryside is just idyllic.

I think if I ever stayed in Chianti Classico again, I would ask for this exact same place. The views from the mountaintop were incredible, olive trees, everywhere, thousand year old property, it doesn’t get much better than that!

A wonderful place for family holidays !

The Capanna house was great : ideally located in a cosy village, far away from the urban noise... we had a really good time in family (2 adults / 2 kids). The owners were really helpful and welcoming even when we had a few minor problems (a broker key / random wifi) and they quickly found a solution. The swimming pool and the tennis court were also highly appreciated, as much as the surrounding well preserved nature. To be recommended ;-)

Peace and tranquility

Our stay in this enchanting little village was just perfection. Our renovated “barn” was so cozy and comfortable, Our host, Veronica could not have been more attentive to our needs (it was quite cold when we were there and she made sure we had fuel, etc to stay warm). She also brought us wine and olive oil from her family and a delicious tart. It was peaceful, beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. Thank you Veronica and Massimiliano for sharing your magical little corner of Italy! We certainly hope to return!

Wonderful house in a fantastic place

We spent a great time in this little spot in the middle of Chiantis forests and vineyards! Perfect calm nights, nice surrounding for walks and Toskanas attractions nearby. In the evening we loved sitting around the fireplace. A very special thank to Veronica and her warm welcome! Everything had been prepared for a first evening-including homemade wine and olive oil. We felt very much at home and had a great time. Hopefully we will be back some day! Best regards!!!

Perfect getaway in Tuscany

Wow! We could not be more pleased with our stay at Castellina in Chianti. We were greeted warmly, with welcome gifts (wine, olive oil, a delicious tart, and fresh fruit). The property provided us incomparable vistas from the generous terrace and along shady hiking trails. We were comfortable in the spacious living area and bedrooms. All amenities were in great working order and gave us just the respite we were seeking. Plus, after a long day of sightseeing in nearby Florence, the beautifully located swimming pool was the perfect way to cool off. We want to return and will recommend this lovely gem of a spot to our fellow travelers and friends!

Very hot nights in a beautiful environment

The village Il Granaio is picturesque and the view is stunning. You also have this great view in the pool and on the tennis court. The house itself has everything you need for a relaxing time, but the equipment is scatchy. There is a very good induction cooker, but the AC in the master bedroom, which is super loud and super big is cooling only one room in the house. You can't close the window, so it's a huge waste of energy! The host Veronika was friendly, helpful and flexible.

Value for money not good

Too expensive for house quality (need big refresh) + asking final additionnal for linen /towels (should be included, not good mood after the price already paid). But Carla very friendly and helpful.

Très jolie maison, bien équipée, le tout dans un charmant hameau typiquement toscan.Lieu très calme avec une vue magnifique.La seule réserve concerne les 2 kilomètres de route non goudronnée pour y accéder.Son état et ces nombreuses bosses interdises l’accès à un véhicule trop bas.Cela ne nous a pas empêché de passer un agréable séjour

A wonderful, relaxing place to stay for a getaway in the beautiful hills of Chianti. The communication was excellent as we recieved easy directions from the host to the house and were greeted with a leisurely and kind check in experience. The whole place was clean and felt extremely comfortable to be staying in. The kitchen came with all the appliances you could possibly need. We would definitely stay again.

Quel séjour fabuleux ! L'endroit donne l'impression de régner sur le domaine. C'est magique et super bien aménagé, tout y est, autant dans la cuisine que sur le terrain, rien ne manque. L'accueil est fantastique, les communications sont fluides et simples et pas vraiment requises car aucun problème ne peut vraiment arriver. La réservation est facile, les questions que j'ai posé à Massimiliano ont été répondues promptement et Veronica nous attendait à notre arrivée, un accueil parfait. Nous avons séjourné deux semaines et nous avons aimé chaque moment.
