Il Poggio, Poggio San Polo - Gaiole in Chianti - Siena and Chianti
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
Three bedrooms. Three bathrooms, two en-suite. 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.
Parking - 2 parking spaces.

Guest reviews: Il Poggio 
Hardinghen, France
What a wonderful villa! C*** and P*** couldn't have been more helpful or welcoming. A great mix of our rubbish Italian and their slightly better English had us all in stitches on the cooking demo evening. The villa was just perfect for us in terms of location, close to Gaiole, Radda and Castellina with a small shop, restaurant and wine bar in Lecchi. It was very well equipped to a high standard and the decor and fittings are charming and quirky. It was too cold to use the pool but we very much enjoyed the jacuzzi. Two of us rented e-bikes at Tuscany Bicycle in Gaiole - a great experience - we did the Castle tour on the first afternoon and then hired the bikes for another day to cycle with friends. A great way to explore the magical countryside. We had private chefs come and cater for us at the villa one night (my birthday) and that was another great evening. All in all a wonderful holiday at a beautiful villa and I'm sure we will be back.Gaiole, Radda and Castellina are all great towns to stroll around and enjoy a good meal. There is a take away pizza place in Gaiole which is very good. We also cycled to San Gusme - first visit there and what a beautiful town, sadly only time for a coffee as the restaurant looked great. If you want to hire bikes definitely go and see Elisabeth at Tuscany Bicycle in Gaiole - she is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. For wine we went back to our old haunts at Brollio and Ama, both as good as ever. My friend went to the Prada outlet in Montevarchi........twice! Apparently good value and shopping experience. The chefs who catered for us, Le Due Cuccine, did an excellent job - extensive menu choice or they can guide you.
