Casa Virginia, San Sano - Gaiole in Chianti - Siena and Chianti

3 bedrooms 3 bathrooms 6 guests Private Pool 5 - Superb - Superb 5

You will love Casa Virginia’s openness: set on a gentle slope above a vineyard, with a backdrop of olive trees, pines and cypresses, the sky above is large and the horizon wide. The villa is well placed for visiting Siena – and Florence and San Gimignano are easily reachable – but its impressive private pool, charming and generous garden, three furnished terraces and loggia will compete for your attention. Swimmers, especially, will appreciate the pool’s substantial size (12 metres long, with a deep end that justifies a diving board).

Converted from a traditional barn and dovecote, Casa Virginia does not disappoint inside either. Traditional meets modern, solid meets stylish: from the terracotta tiled floors, beamed ceilings and scattering of antiques to the well-equipped, glass-screened contemporary kitchen and rattan-furnished loggia. Arranged over three levels, with outside spaces on three sides, the villa offers multiple options for chasing sun or shade through the day, enjoying a quiet moment alone or socialising. Ideal for groups of up to six family or friends.

We love this bright, airy villa for the thoughtfulness that has gone into it: from the eye-catching terracotta planters and vine-covered pergola outside to the interior layout, which creates a series of interconnected spaces. The cook of the party need never feel cut off from the rest of the group, for instance, being divided only by a glass screen from the dining room and a step or two away from the terrace outside the kitchen. This latter spot is surely a great choice for lazy, hazy breakfasts.

The small peaceful village of San Sano has one restaurant, called La Grotta della Rana, a small grocery store, and a small church with Sunday morning services at 10am. This medieval village is very popular with walkers and cyclists, surrounded as it is by pathways, which are ideal for early morning walks and bike rides.

La maison est très bien située, avec une vue magnifique. L'extérieur est particulièrement agréable, avec de multiples terrasses et un couvert, tous bien agencés, pour profiter de chaque moment de la journée. Le jardin est beau, soigné et typiquement agrémenté de gros pots de plantes qui donnent beaucoup de cachet.
Nous avons été un peu déçus par la piscine. L'eau est propre et régulièrement entretenue, cependant le revêtement du bord est usé et taché (accumulation d'huiles solaires selon les propriétaires), et cela a sali de façon indélébile tous nos vêtements de bain. Le mobilier de piscine est également un peu vétuste.
La maison a été rénovée avec soin. Chaque chambre dispose d'une salle de bain, ce qui est très agréable. Les lits ne sont par contre pas très confortables malheureusement. La cuisine est bien agencée, pratique pour cuisiner à plusieurs et manger en famille sur la terrasse adjacente. Il y a peut-être un peu trop de vaisselle et d'ustensiles, dont certains mal entretenus par les locataires précedents. Enfin, les propriétaires sont accueillants et disponibles.
Globalement, c'est un endroit charmant, à recommander, mais dont le rapport qualité-prix pourrait être amélioré.
