Antico Cipresso at Navico, Castellina in Chianti - Siena and Chianti

Sitting hillside between Castellina in Chianti 9 Km and Panzano in Chianti 7 Km, Navico is an impossibly pretty collection of cottages and apartments. The resort's sun-drenched pool is fragrant with the lavender that grace its border. Making up the Tuscan farm house restoration, each holiday home which is individually owned has crafted stone exteriors and traditional terracotta tiles with exposed beam interiors and a garden with a dining area. There are open views of rolling oak forests, vines, olives and hilltop towns.

While taking your front row seat in the cool evening breeze to view the sunset you can plan a day trip to Siena, Florence and San Gimignano or a jaunt to the nearby Chianti villages to soak up your new way of life. Your plans may take you even closer to home tasting Monte Bernardi's organic wine 3.5 Km or dining with the locals at Le Panzanelle 5.5 Km. If you're feeling the more energetic, you may take time out for an early morning vineyard run, bike ride or swim. If you want to stay in Chianti, this resort is it.
