La Penisola Description
Located 3km from the town of Radda in Chianti is La Penisola, a 300 year old farm house, which has been beautifully restored by the owner. Built into the hillside overlooking the Volpaia valley, this split level villa is a wonderful relaxing place to spend your holiday.
Situated at the rear of the house on a lower level, reached via a flight of stone steps is the swimming pool. The paved surround is furnished with loungers and there is also a covered gazebo to retreat under during the heat of the day. Relaxing by the pool you have far reaching views of the valley below and the surrounding vineyards and olive groves.
Outside the villa is surrounded by mature trees and shrubs, and from almost every angle there are breathtaking views.
La Penisola is located on the edge of the world famous Chianti Cashmere
farm which specializes in hand-woven cashmere and skincare products made from goat's milk. At the nearby farm, the owner offers clients tastings of their goat's cheese, together with all the cashmere you can comb from the goats for free!
At the rear of the house is a vine covered pergola, under which there is a large wooden table and chairs.Nearby is a brick built barbecue making this a perfect spot for ‘al fresco’ cooking and dining.
The entrance leads into the lounge which has the traditional terracotta tiled floors and tiled and beamed ceiling, there is a huge stone fireplace which dominates the room.
There is a comfortable sofa arranged in front of the fireplace and a small table and chairs to one side. Floor to ceiling windows surround the room on three sides making this a very light airy room, these can be opened to allow the breeze to circulate. At the far end is a small scullery with stone sink, shelving and a fridge. To the right of the fireplace are some stone steps which lead up to the first floor.
The first floor is reached via a set of stone steps from the lounge and also via an open staircase from the dining room. Both arrive at either side of the landing which has been turned into a study area with antique writing desk, chair, sofa and bookshelves along two of the walls.
To the right of the landing is the twin bedded room with large wooden hand painted wardrobe and chest of drawers. The beds can be pushed together if required.
To the left of the landing is the master bedroom, which has a double bed, walk in wardrobe with chest of drawers and ensuite bathroom with large shower with curtain, heated towel rail, basin and WC.

There is a large brick archway separating the kitchen area from the dining room, which has a round wooden table and chairs. A large dresser sits against one wall and there is a stove in one corner. An open staircase, not suitable for toddlers, leads to the first floor and to the right through an archway is an ‘L’ shaped corridor.
