Carfini di Sopra at Carfini
Location address: Poggibonsi - Siena
Carfini di Sopra is located on the first floor of typical Tuscan stone farm building located on the edge of the Chianti. Poggibonsi is within easy reach and Castellina in Chianti is a short distance away.
The entrance to the villa is up some external Travertine stairs which lead onto a small terrace. Off this is the villa entrance and a small office which the owners use. Entering the villa there is an open plan living area. In one corner is a well equipped kitchen which includes gas hobs, a small fridge with internal freezer compartment, and an oven. In the centre of the room is a wooden table with four chairs. Against one wall is a triple sofa. The room is completed by satellite TV.
A terracotta arch leads off the back of the lounge into a small hall which provides access to a bathroom with a shower and washing machine. From the hall there is a door to the first of the two double bedrooms. This is a large spacious room, simply furnished with a large wardrobe that has some drawers and a double iron bed. The window looks out over the some farm equipment in the neighbouring yard and then onto the vineyards beyond.
The second double bedroom is accessed directly from the living area. It is also a large, bright room, simply furnished. It has an iron double bed and large wardrobe. The window which is south facing looks out to the villa terrace, then onto the passing road and the vineyards on the other side. There is an en-suite bathroom with shower.
Carfini di Sopra has a pretty private outside eating area which can be seen from the other buildings on the property. It is near the road that passes the property, so it is possible to see and hear passing cars on the road below.
The double bedrooms cannot be made into twins, however should a twin room be required an extra bed can be placed. Please indicate if you require this when booking.

I like To Tuscany, partly because it has a tremendous range of villas, and partly because (unlike many companies) it has an excellent website that provides what you really want when choosing a villa.

Our accommodation, which cost less than £800 for the week, is in a converted stone farmhouse next to a 12th Century Franciscan chapel. There is a pergola shaded by vines round the back here we quickly settle into a rhythm of eating long pasta suppers while the shadows lengthen.
