Resort: Podere di Casalta

Podere di Casalta is a finely restored Tuscan hamlet of 9 villas that maintains all its original characteristics, with well maintained, simple gardens of local plant, shrubs and herbs. It is located in the heart of the Chianti within easy reach of Castellina in Chianti and Panzano in Chianti.

The pool is located a few steps away from the villas and is protected by a beautiful stone wall to one side, while the other has towering cypress trees through which there are fantastic views of the Chianti hills covered in vineyards and olive groves.

The hamlet, once owned by Galileo Galilei, is composed of two buildings around a quaint, traditional stone courtyard in which there is a pizza oven. To one side is an independent cottage while near the pool is a second, small cottage with the laundry. In front of the laundry is a large, stone terrace furnished with tables and chairs for communal use.
Approach road - 1km bumpy unpaved road. A low vehicle is not recommended.
Parking - available on site

Pool Info

The pool is located up several stone steps behind the laundry room. It is protected from the hamlet by a high stone wall and iron gate. The other three sides of the pool are open with a cypress and fir trees.

Surrounding the pool is a large sun deck dotted with several umbrellas and sunbeds. Above the pool is a second, rarely used car park. There are some views of the Chianti hills through the cypress trees. The pool is 12 x 7 meter, 1.2-1.6 metres deep. Open from May to September, weather permitting.

Belle situation,
Un havre de paix très bien entretenu.
Seul point négatif, l'accès sur 1,5km par un chemin en terre poussiéreux.
Sinon, parfait pour des vacances reposantes.

Stay: August 2016

Wohnung bzw. Anwesen alles gut.
Nnur die Auffahrt auf der unbefestigten Straße war doch schwieriger und etwas abenteuerlicher als erwartet. Wir waren immer froh, dass uns kein Fahrzeug entgegen kam, es fehlt an den meisten Stellen an ausreichend Ausweichmöglichkeit. Wie man hier eine Verbesserung erzielen kann, weiß ich aber auch nicht.
Ich würde Csalta nur deshalb nicht jedem empfehlen.

Keine Empfehlung konkret. Insgesamt genug Auswahl an Restaurants. Restaurants: immer mit Reservierung Osterias: günstig und gut

As in the villa description, Approach road - 900 mts unpaved countryside road. A low vehicle is not recommended

Idéalement situé pour visiter la Toscane, que ce soit les grandes villes ( Florence et Sienne, à moins d'une heure) ou les petits villages. Permettant de combiner de vraies moments de détentes au milieu des vignes et des visites riches culturellement. Je recommenderais Casalta à ma famille et mes amis pour un séjour inoubliable.
