Il Poggio, Poggio San Polo - Gaiole in Chianti - Siena and Chianti

3 bedrooms 3 bathrooms 6 guests Private Pool

This attractive semi-detached villa in the heart of the Chianti region has lots to offer up to six guests – a spacious interior, huge lawned gardens with a lovely private pool, two terraces, a kitchen with wow-factor and a wellness room, too. Arranged over two floors, Il Poggio has a village just a few minutes’ drive away and the Chianti towns nearby.

The first thing you’ll want to do is to book your complimentary cooking class with the owners, held in the professional-standard kitchen, which will help you make the best of the delicious local produce. Your next priority might be a session in the wellness room – where there’s gym equipment, a sauna and Jacuzzi – followed by some time recuperating with a dip in the pool. Pull up a lounger on the poolside or sundeck and you’ll be treated to sweeping views. The villa’s huge terrace, shaded by a gazebo, has both a seating and dining area with a barbecue – the ideal spot for those meals you’ll be whizzing up. The interior is also well-equipped and comfortably furnished in traditional style and retaining features such as exposed brick and tiled-and-beamed ceilings – a real home from home.

Our Thoughts
We adore this property for the thought that’s gone into the facilities on offer and foodies will love it even more. The free cookery class is such a great idea, with longer courses available, too, and the kitchen has everything a budding chef might need. Set in the heart of the Chianti, there’s some great produce – and wine to explore. And the wellness centre and the pool mean there’s somewhere to work off any over-indulgence, too.

Notes
The twin bedroom has access to a toilet but no shower, so is best for children. The third bathroom is part of the wellness room.
Welcome basket and a cooking class with the owners are included in the price. The owners live in the property adjoining the villa. They have two dogs and a cat. The property is fully fenced, but there is an unfenced pond in the gardens. There is a vegetable garden available for guests' use.

Pool
The salt-water swimming pool is located next to the villa, just below the terrace, in a sleek paved surround. The water is accessed via Roman steps in one corner and there is an “endless pool” feature that allows creates a continuous current to swim against. The pool terrace is furnished with sun loungers and there is an open-air shower.
Pool size: 8m x 4m, 1.5m deep. Open from May through September, weather permitting.
