Le Caciaie 12, Gaiole in Chianti - Siena

A bright and inviting haven on a Chianti hilltop. Le Caciaie 12 consists a restored farmhouse and barn, just 3km from Gaiole in Chianti and within walking distance of Meleto Castle. Walking through the grounds you’ll find lush green cypress trees, and views of the rolling Chianti hills. A set of shady sitting and dining areas can also be found here, and the broad stone terrace beside the main farmhouse provides a fantastic venue for sitting and staring at the peaceful countryside. This terrace features a marble table with 8 wrought iron chairs.

Both the main house and the converted barn are beautifully decorated with a seamless mixture of antiques and tasteful modern furniture. The result is a welcoming, but effortlessly classy abode, with bright interior spaces and high ceilings. The main house features two lounges – both spacious, comfortable, and with elegant open fireplaces. Meanwhile the dining room is an exquisite stately place to gather and enjoy a delicious home-cooked meal.
