Poggetto, Lucolena - Greve in Chianti - Florence
Sweeping views, a fragrant garden bursting with lavender, and a private swimming pool await at Poggetto, a lovely stone villa in the heart of the Chianti countryside. If you’re seeking an escape from the strains of everyday life, this is the place to stay. Yet, Poggetto, which sleeps between eight and 10 guests, offers an added bonus; it’s split into two apartments, so the villa is an ideal choice for a couple of families seeking some degree of privacy while holidaying together.
While the apartments are not self-contained, each has its own kitchen and bathroom and the mix of twin and double bedrooms adds further flexibility. Styled in chic, neutral colour schemes, it has traditional Tuscan touches, too, including exposed stone and brick archways, terracotta floors and wood-beamed ceilings. Surrounded by forests and vine-covered hills, the villa is a short stroll to the pretty village of Lucolena, so there is much to admire in the surrounding area. But we suspect you’ll spend a lot of time cradling a glass of local wine in the sunshine on the terrace.

Our Thoughts
This is a soothing retreat; we love the scented garden with its wonderful views. The pool is just the place to cool off after a day visiting the nearby vineyards, tramping along local walking trails or exploring nearby Siena and Florence. Children are likely to want to claim the twin-bedded room on the mezzanine floor as their own – a fun place to sleep. If one of your party has limited mobility, there is an accessible bedroom, bathroom and lounge.
Notes
Five bedrooms. Four bathrooms, one en-suite. A bedroom, bathroom and lounge are suitable for wheelchair users. The last 400 metres of approach road is bumpy and unpaved. An unpaved road passes in front of the villa, used by guests of a neighbouring agriturism. The pool is fenced. Lucolena is 600 metres away from the villa and has a small grocery shop.

Guest reviews: Poggetto 
The Villages, United States of America
We had a wonderful, fun filled week while staying at this villa (Poggetto). Anna Maria and Niccolo are wonderful and very helpful. Their lasagna is also great. Just a few highlights and a few suggestions. This well maintained villa has excellent views up and down the valley and an excellent pool (4 to 5 feet deep). The kitchen is reasonably well stocked with dishes and pots/pans and the appliances are straight forward (Americans - make sure that you understand the conversion between centigrade and Fahrenheit.) The beds were comfortable. As we were there in mid-September, we did not use the AC but just opened the windows.
A few cautions – 1) you really do need a higher clearance vehicle as the road going up to the villa is quite steep and uneven. 2) Your GPS will not work well in Tuscany in general because the roads go up and down the hills (complete with hairpin switch backs). 3) Our original directions had us taking the INCISA/VALDARNO exit off A1/E35. There is no such exit. Take the INCISA/REGGELLO exit and follow the rest of the directions.
Having said that, armed with a good local map, it is relatively easy to get where you want to go as long as you know the towns through which you are traveling. For instance, turn left out of the driveway and follow the signs to Greve. From there you follow the signs to Panzano or Castellina etc. Finally, there are many restaurants serving excellent food. Good food, a bottle of local Chianti, what more do you need? We hope that you will enjoy this villa as much as we did.
Just ask Anna Maria- her suggestions were great.
