Calafralina, Radda in Chianti - Siena and Chianti
Calafralina is a wonderful stone villa set in the heart of Chianti. Comprising a main house and a cluster of cottages, it offers sophisticated lodgings best suited to five couples who wish to explore wine country, or mixed groups with older children. Its position, halfway between the pretty towns of Castellina and Radda, means you will have the chance to sample a taste of the local lifestyle.
The main villa houses a large, comfortable open-plan living and dining area with full-height modern windows and doors to the garden on three sides. The comfy bedrooms are housed in three cottages, each with direct access from the garden, ensuring independence and privacy. Outside, the pretty walled patio shaded by olive trees is just perfect for an al-fresco dinner. The expansive gardens, including an orchard and an olive grove, feature mature trees offering shade, while the ping-pong table and bocce court will keep everyone amused. And the large private pool, set in its own lawned area, must be one of the best places to pull up a lounger and contemplate the gorgeous views.

Our Thoughts
This is a truly wonderful villa – there’s just something about the living-dining area, with its three sides of glass, that puts guests among the trees and really brings the outside in. There’s so much space, too, and the arrangement across four buildings means it’s ideal for a group of couples, who want to socialise but to be able to retreat to an independent space.
Notes
Five bedrooms, five bathrooms, all en-suite. The two terracotta ceiling tiled bedrooms have tradition air conditioning units while the other three have air cooling systems. All bedrooms have tea and coffee-making facilities and are independently accessed from the garden via glass doors. In the Annexe 3 bedrooms there are no other windows. This villa is recommended for the warmer months because there is no direct access between the various buildings without crossing the garden. The owner has a private holiday villa on the property, but rarely uses it. The caretaker is at guests disposal every day, and takes care of the garden, vegetables and chicken coop. He is happy to provide vegetables and eggs to guests and offer assistance if needed. There is a friendly medium size male dog that lives in the owner's private area which will be kept away from guests if required.
The pool is reserved for guests only.

In the pool house there is a bathroom with shower, sink and WC. There is also a small fresh beverage bar. The guests can help themselves and pay for what they use upon check out. There is an outdoor shower. The pool is heated using solar energy at no extra cost. It is heated to 3 degrees above the outside temperature.

Das Objekt liegt in den Bergen und ist nur über eine sehr enge und kurvige Straße zu erreichen. Es ist immer mit Wildwechsel zu rechnen. Im Sommer ist die Kühle der Berge bestimmt angenehm. Im Herbst, wenn man die Sonne sucht, ist es jedoch deutlich kühler als unten im Tal.
Das ein- und auschecken war sehr gut organisiert. Die Unterkunft ist für 10 Personen super geeignet.
In Castellina in Chianti gibt es die kleine Pizzeria in Fondaccio. Von den Tomatoes Brasil bis zur Pizza alles frisch zubereitet. Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist super.
