Completely renovated ancient villa and tower in the heart of Chianti, Tuscany!

This is a unique and historic wine country villa set in the heart of one of the most famous wine countries in the world, Chianti. The Tower was built circa1085, making it nearly 1000 years young. The interior has been completely remodeled and outfitted with all of the modern amenities. Contemporary and comfortable furnishings throughout complement the ancient walls of this Tuscan villa.

Nearly every room boasts views of the mountain atop which the ruins of Montegrossi Castle are perched. Torre di Cancelli was, in fact, built to protect the highly coveted castle. A mild hike up the hill will take you inside this historic monument.

A short walk down the road leads you to the stunning Badia a Coltibuono, a former monastery that bottles its own wine and olive oil. Cooking classes, a restaurant, wine tasting, and tours are just a few of the things the abbey has to offer.

8km away, Radda in Chianti is a prized and ancient town in the area. A favorite local restaurant is Bottega da Giovannino. Be sure to say hi to Monica, the owner. She's quite the wine enthusiast and the food is excellent.

In the main house there are 5 bedrooms. 2 additional bedrooms in annex for a total of 7 bedrooms.
For those parties greater than 10 people, the annex with 2 bedrooms (max occupancy 4) will be opened. Those parties of 10 or less, will be hosted in the main house and tower only.

MAIN HOUSE:
Ground floor: 1 bedrooms with king, 1 bedroom with queen size beds; 1 bedroom with 2 twin beds.

Gaiole

We had a wonderful stay with family and friends at the villa! The kids absolutely loved staying in the tower! The rustic charm of the villa and surrounding area was beautiful! Really enjoyed the small towns in the area, very convenient location. We had a few small issues with the annex but it did not spoil our experience!

I actually expected a poorer review from these guests given how difficult, demanding and negligent they were of our property. Needless to say they won’t be invited back. To answer their claim regarding the annex, here is the sequence of events as explained by our property manager: 7th July 21.46 pm: Donna wrote me a WhatsApp as follows: “the annex is unusable, it is infestated with millions of ants by the door!!! Please attend to it in the am! If you can’t fix it in the an please refund me the payment” 7th July 21:48 pm: My reply: “We will check and defend that tomorrow!” 8th July 10:00 am: Our employee Luz Bacci arrived in the house and started to kill the ants with poison and closed the crack in a floor tile where the ants got in. image003.png 8th July 19:54 pm: Donna sent a WhatsApp “The ants appear to be dead but no one cleaned them up so no one is willing to stay there. Also the door handle falls off when you open the door” 9th July 10:35 am: I replied that we will repair that and we will also clean the dead ants. In the meantime I asked her if they could use a broom in the meantime…” -> no reply Monday, 11th July 14.45 pm: Our employee Luz arrived in Gaiole and cleaned the ants and checked / fixed up the door handle. My personal summary: Of course we cleaned the ants away but the poison was killing more ants that died after we left. It’s ridiculous that adults are unable to broom some dead ants away and say: “…no one is willing to stay there…”. The house is in the free nature and insects are part of that. We reacted very fast and friendly! Be warned fellow vrbo owners as this group was very difficult to work with, broke quite a few item (dishes, glasses, chairs, chess set, etc) and complained about everything!

Beautiful property

When we first got to the house we were disappointed as it is near the road and right next to a very large electricity pylon. However when you are in the house or garden you can’t see the pylon or road and the road noise is not very loud. The house is very nicely done and the views from the garden and terrace lovely. The kitchen could be a bit better equipped eg some Pyrex dishes, but we managed fine. The drive up to the house is quite tight and one of us scratched our hire car. They should cut back the rosemary bush growing over the wall so there is more room to get the car through. Unfortunately the WiFi didn’t work throughout the visit which was very inconvenient as three of us had to work part time so we spent a money on extra data. The younger members of the group didn’t have access to data at all which left them a bit annoyed. Obviously this was not the owners fault but it meant we didn’t get what we paid for. We asked for a refund to cover our costs and the loss of amenity - we really wouldn’t have come if we had known there would be no WiFi - but we haven’t received anything which is disappointing and unfair. The management company was very good and dealt promptly with our issues.

The issues with the WIFI were due to Telecom Italia going down in the region. Unfortunately , Italian WIFI is not the same as other countries (they still only have dial-up in the rural areas). I offered the client a credit towards there next stay which they were thankful. Unfortunately, they couldn't amend their review prior to communicating the problem with me :(. I'll take a look at the kitchen, but most guests feel that it is well equipped. I vacation in the house for 3-4 weeks/year and have had no need for extra Pyrex dishes, LOL. There are 2 short gravel roads to the property, which are accessed through a common entrance. As is classically found in large villas in Italy, the back entry road is for larger vehicles (service cars, vans, etc). Smaller (i.e. european cars, passenger cars) can access the front entry. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Wunderschöne Ferien im Chianti

Der ausgebaute alte Turm bietet viel Platz für Ferien in der Großfamilie oder mit befreundeten Familien. Das Haus ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet, so dass wir den Aufenthalt sehr genossen haben. Vom Sitzplatz vor dem Haus genießt man den Blick auf die alte Burgruine, zu der man in ca. 30 Minuten hochsteigen kann. Der schöne Pool bietet herrliche Abkühlung nach Ausflügen nach Siena, Arezzo oder Florenz und die Boulebahn wurde bald zum vorabendlichen Ritual. Durch die Aufteilung in Haupthaus und kleines, eigenständiges Nebengebäude könnte man auch gut Großeltern oder eine weitere Familie unterbringen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

What a Gem!

You can feel the history as soon as you arrive at the property and then be amazed at the beautiful updates and décor which flow seamlessly with all the original characteristics of the tower. The property is incredibly maintained and sits atop a hill with panoramic views all around. All the rooms are really well appointed, all the modern conveniences you could ask for. We stayed at Torre as is was a great central point for us as we had events in Florence and Siena. Radda is only a short drive away and we had dinner across the street at Badia a Coltibuono which was great. It was a treat to stay in a such a historic home and Ken was such a great help in the planning of our trip and making our Italian holiday one of the best we have had. Looking forward to our next visit.

Un sogno nel Chianti

Ho alloggiato in questo antico casale con la mia famiglia, nel cuore della del Chianti. Da subito ho respirato la calda atmosfera di quest'ambiente in cui si riflette la storia del passato e la sua tradizione toscana . Questo luogo da sogno è un accogliente casale ristrutturato con passione e con gusto nel pieno rispetto della struttura antica, con il recupero dei materiali e degli arredi originali. È possibile inoltre dormire all’interno della storica torre appartenente al casale, disposta su tre livelli, completamente immersi nella natura e nella quiete, circondata da vigne, boschi e uliveti. Un’esperienza unica, da provare!!!

Amazing, once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing property and a great value. We stayed as a group of 13 including kids and the property couldn't have been more beautiful. The surrounding area is calm and peaceful. Even though the property is close to the main country road, its recessed and secluded. The owners (Ken and Chloe) couldn't have been nicer and communicated clearly. The pool was not available, and we knew that going in, but the cool afternoon breezes and higher elevation of the property made it very comfortable. The mosquito screens on all the windows are fantastic! I heard the pool is finished, can't wait to book another stay here. Highly recommend.

Thanks Michael, You can come back anytime. You and your guests kept the property clean and we truly appreciate your comments. The pool looks amazing. I'll be doing some landscaping next spring which should really make the property shine. Best, Ken and chloe

Absolutely Magical - Perfect Ambiance and Location.

This Gorgeous villa exceeded all my expectations for a perfect family summer vacation in Italy. The home is a perfect marriage of ancient charm and modern conveniences. The Pictures do not do this property justice; nestled within a stunning countryside the home authentically boasts a fairytale setting for an extremely romantic getaway, upscale event, or memorable family vacation. We were drawn to the history of the tower being the actual watchtower for the castle that sits atop the neighboring hill. While the castle is no longer habitable, the tower has been maintained fabulously and offers remarkable views of the castle from the front porch and princess windows within the tower. We visited this property as a joint family vacation with our 1-year-old daughter, our Friends and their 4 and 5 year old kids. We were in constant awe of the immaculate design details in the brick floors, stone walls, vaulted ceilings, unique window placements and winding stair case that eloquently travels through the kitchen, four floors of sleeping space, a bathroom, and lands on a glass floor for a view confirming you are at the top of an ancient tower! Several days we decided to spend our time at the villa, we took a family hike to the Castle, swam daily in the pool, and ran on local trails. Within walking distance we found a cute shop across the road and a monastery, which offered romantic and family friendly dining. We also spent time in Radda, a quaint town 15 mins away, with a movie theatre, restaurants, gelato and a grocery store. The location was ideal for quick trips to Siena and Florence. And we made day trips into Pisa, Lucca and Saturnia natural hot springs. This villa is a gem, my husband said numerous times during our stay "How fantastic is it that they allow visitors to stay here, it could be a museum”. And I kept thinking what a magical place to host a wedding. I highly recommend this treasure for a vacation rental or event location.

Fabulous Luxury Villa

I had the pleasure of staying at this gorgeous villa for a few night and days in early July 2016. I was lucky enough to be accommodated in the annex, which meant I essentially had an entire house to myself. The annex is very well appointed with everything you need to feel right at home. The kitchen is perfectly stocked with brand new supplies and appliances, including tableware, pots, pans, and the ever critical wine glasses! The bathroom was updated and luxurious--large walk-in shower. The bedroom was spacious and well furnished with a beautiful bed and wardrobe to store clothing. The furnishings throughout the house are classy, luxurious, inviting, and comfortable without detracting from the charm and feel of this perfect getaway location. The annex provides the perfect combination of privacy, yet is close enough to the main house to allow you to be part of the bigger mix if vacationing with a larger group/ additional families. The screened doors and windows to the building allow for airflow throughout the house without letting all of nature inside. The main house and remainder of the property is spectacular as well. The tile floors, exposed beams, arched doorways, all of it really lends perfectly to the overall feel of this gorgeous villa in its beautiful setting. Highly recommended for large groups or multiple families who would enjoy some privacy while enjoying the company of others in their group.
