FAQ
Melograno is a large villa with 4 bedrooms. It has a lovely iron table with chairs, shaded by a large umbrella, to dine al fresco. From here there are pretty views of Concadoro's manicured garden and the estates vineyards.




From here a large terracotta arch leads into the private courtyard of Melograno, off which there is a storage room. Steps go up to a typical loggia and the entrance to the villa.


Entering the large glass and iron door there is the kitchen and dining area. To the back of the room is a large fireplace, in front of which is a round table that can be extended to seat comfortably 8 people. Against one wall is the kitchen unit which has gas hobs, oven, and a fridge with freezer.


To the right a rectangular arch leads to the comfortable and spacious lounge, which is furnished with a triple sofa and a two seater sofa. Throughout the living area there are terracotta floors and the traditional Tuscan ceiling of wooden beams and terracotta tiles.



From the lounge two steps down lead into the first of the bedrooms. This is a large double bedroom, furnished with a big wooden wardrobe and chest of drawers. There is a small en-suite bathroom with shower.




Off the kitchen is a corridor which leads to the other bedrooms. To the right is a bathroom with shower. Across the hall from the bathroom is a double bedroom also furnished with a wardrobe and chest of drawers.





Next to the bathroom is a twin bedroom with pretty views across the Concadoro estate. The room is furnished with a large wardrobe and chest of drawers.



At the end of the hall is a second twin bedroom. Like the other bedrooms this also has a large wardrobe and chest of drawers. This room has the same views as the other twin, across the estate and to the forested hills beyond.






From the outside area cars passing on the road can be seen, although there is an olive grove between the road and property.

Concadoro is a wonderfully well maintained working farm which produces oil and Chianti wine. The property is composed of the owners villa and about 400meters away from it are the five rental apartments.



The large, beautiful pool is located below the owners villa. It has pretty views of the wine estate with its vineyards and olive groves, then onto the forested Chianti hills beyond. Around the pool is a lovely sundeck to enjoy the warm Tuscan sun.


The well restored property of Concadoro is a single building housing all 5 apartments. Surrounding the entire building is a large paved terrace, on which each apartment has its own private table with chairs and umbrella. These outside eating areas are not secluded and can easily see their neighbours.


This lovely Tuscan farm is just a short distance from a Chianti road between Poggibonsi and Castellina in Chianti. This road is at a higher level than the buildings. Some noise can be heard from the occasional cars that pass.



Pool Info

The pool is about 400meters away from the apartments. It is located below the owners villa, it's reached by crossing the estate and a small private parking area. It is a magnificent pool surrounded by a lovely paved sun deck dotted with sun beds and umbrella from where the wonderful views of the property vineyards, olive groves and the forested hills beyond can be admired.


The pool is a combination of a small pool and a large one joined by a spacious channel with steps. The smaller part of the pool is 6x3meters and 0.5 meters deep. This leads into the large part which is 16x6 meters and 1.2 meters deep. Between these two there is a lovely water feature. There are both roman and steel steps into the pool. It is open from May to October and is used only by the apartments of Conca d'Oro.



Nearest town

Concadoro is about 7km from Castellina in Chianti, on of the 5 main Chianti towns. In this beautiful town there are several shops and restaurants to choose from. Approximately 1km from the property there is a good restaurant 'Il Pestello', although it's possible to walk to the restaurant it is best to drive due to the narrow road.

 Was waren die Highlights Ihres Urlaubs? Für unseren Sohn war es sicherlich das Highlight im Turmzimmer eine Nacht gemeinsam mit einer Fledermaus zu verbringen. Sie ist durch das offene Fenster hineingeflogen und flatterte bis zum Morgen durch den Turm. Dann verschwand sie und kam nie mehr wieder.
 Wie war Ihr Gesamteindruck der Unterbrungung? SEHR SCHÖN!! Das gesamte Haus ist scheinbar gerade ganz neu renoviert worden und alles wohnlich und stilvoll ausgewählt.Zur Begrüßung stand ein hauseigener Wein, Essig und Olivenöl auf dem Tisch. Der Verwalter hat uns voller Stolz die Wohnung gezeigt und alles erklärt. Die Küche hatte noch einen riesigen alten Pizzaofen und großen Kamin. Zwei Schlafzimmer sind gemütlich groß und das Turmzimmer hat etwas heimeliges (dazu mehr unter Highlights). Oberhalb des Hauses verläuft zwar die Strada de Chianti Classico, diese wird aber an Wochentagen erstaunlich wenig befahren und stört überhaupt nicht. Auf der grossen Terassse konnten wir ungestört übers Tal schauen und hatten am Vormittag einen kleinen schattenspendenden Olivenbaum. Für die pralle Sonne gab es zwar einen Sonnenschirm, aber bei 39°C nützt auch der nichts mehr. Der Weg zum Swimmingpool am Haupthaus war immer ein kleiner Ausflug und viele Gäste nutzten hierfür sogar ihr Auto. Wir sind immer zu Fuß den Berg hinauf und haben immer genügend Liegestühle für uns Fünf gefunden. Das ist durchaus eine Adresse, zu der wir sicher noch einmal reisen werden.
Gab es unangenehme Überraschungen?

Quels ont été les point forts de vos vacances? Très bon accueil et grande disponibilté du gérant. Climat Vue Logement Magnifique piscine Endroit idéal pour découvrir une bonne partie de la Toscane Proximité de Florence
Quelle est votre impression générale concernant l'hébergement? Logement très confortable et très calme dans un site très agréable avec magnifique vue. Cuisine équipée conforme à l'annonce. Il serait toutefois nécessaire de doubler le jeu de couverts et fournir un peu plus de vaisselle + un plateau (utile quand on déjeune en terrasse)

Bonjour,

Nous venons de rentrer du domaine de Concadoro à Castellina in Chianti, et nous sommes encore sous le charme du paysage de la Toscane, l'hébergement royal et l'accueil, tous prévenants (merci à Alessio,) étaient parfaits, exactement comme décrits sur votre site (une impression d'être déjà venu à force ce regarder les photos avant de partir !)ainsi que les informations sur le village, les environs... votre site est vraiment très bien fait et j'en ferai l'éloge auprès de mes amis.
Merci à Virginie pour son efficacité et sa gentillesse qui nous a permis d'accéder à ce moment paradisiaque malgré les facéties d'un hacker sur notre boite mail....

Cordialement

I went on holiday with my family and we range from 60 years to 2 years so finding a villa to suit all our needs was proving to be quite tricky. When I found your website I just felt a sense of relief

I can't be more pleased with the service To-Tuscany provided. Dick Calabro was especially helpful answering all of my pre-trip questions in a most helpful and timely fashion.

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.
