キャンティ地方の中心部にあるプライベートプール付きヴィラ

San Piero Terre offers the most authentic Italian family holiday experience. We love this 100 years old farm and we have made it as homely and comforting as possible.
The house was built at the beginning of last century by the Ricasoli family, the largest landowners in Chianti, for the farmers who worked their land.
The large paved area between the house and the barn was the farmyard and you can still see the ancient bread oven at the entrance of the house. We were keen for it to have the flavour of a Tuscan house so we decorated in a traditional countryside style.

We have enjoyed great time here and the garden and villa are the backdrop of very fond family memories bathed in the special golden evening light that is so peculiar to this area of Italy.
The house has thick walls that keep it fresh in the summer, and in the afternoon a pleasant breeze and the shade of the huge oak tree offer a respite from the Italian summer. The water of the swimming pool comes from a nearby well so it's also always nice and cool.
Perfect for large groups, the villa will comfortably accommodate two or even three families with children, and there is always a quiet spot for everyone to relax.
We start our day with a nice breakfast in the kitchen and often walk to Gaiole for a further coffee in one of the several cafes followed by some shopping. The Macelleria Chini is a nationwide renowned butcher that sells unique pork meat, hams and sausages. Fresh vegetables can be found at the Coop and Lo Sfizio is an excellent patisserie. You can taste and buy great Chianti wines directly from the best local producers.
Back home, we always have lunch and dinner outside: bruschetta roasted on the open fire in the kitchen or on the Weber BBQ is a regular feature but you can always book a chef to cook a special meal.
Even after almost fifty years holidaying here, we never tire of exploring surroundings: castles and wineries, local restaurants, pictoresque villages, cities full of art and also designer outlets.

All of Tuscany is beautiful, however Gaiole in Chianti is right at the heart of the Chianti region and has even been indicated by Forbes as the most Idyllic places in Europe.
In San Piero Terre you can alternate relaxing time by the pool enjoying food and wine with more active days. In the village you can rent MTB or electric bikes, and there are also several marked trekking routes.

San Piero Terre is ideally located for the famous Eroica, the challenging cycling race reserved for vintage cycles that takes place every October. The villa is only a few hundred meters from the starting line and the information centre. We can provide our guests with basic cycle maintenance kit.
