La Capannina at Pretaccione, Castelnuovo Berardenga - Siena and Chianti
Podere Pretaccione, 1000 year old, was once the home of itinerant priests. Located in the heart of the Chianti Classico wine region, Pretaccione provides a restful, rural setting just 20 minutes from historic Siena. The main building has been carefully restored into eight spacious apartments, each comfortably furnished in keeping with the terracotta floors, stone archways and beamed ceilings. A large swimming pool and tennis court with garden furniture are set on a lawned terrace just below the farmhouse. The ancient stone patios provide expansive views of the Arbie River as it winds through the valley toward Siena.
The houses all have private gardens with terraces furnished with tables and chairs for al fresco eating. The pretty village of San Sano, 4km away, boasts an excellent country style restaurant and a small grocery store with a bar.
Pretaccione is on the property of the Dievole Winery and spa, a short drive or a healthy walk up a country road. Visitors are always welcome for wine tastings and special dinners at the winery.
La Capannina is an independent cottage located at the far end of the hamlet Pretaccione in the heart of the Chianti. It has a large private garden with several terraces and private covered parking.
From the car park there are a few steps up to the house, where there is a covered terrace furnished with an iron table and cushioned chairs. From here there are views of the surrounding fields, vineyards and forests, typical of Tuscany.
Going through a large glass door into the villa is the spacious kitchen. It is furnished with a wooden table with six chairs. Along two walls is the kitchen unit which has plenty of work space and is equipped with gas hobs, oven, fridge with small freezer and dishwasher. The room, like the rest of the villa is paved with large terracotta tiles and has the traditional Tuscan ceiling of wooden beams and terracotta tiles.
Passing under an arch there is a the huge living area. This characteristic room is open over two floors with a mezzanine floor on one side and a large supporting column in the centre of the room. In a corner is a large, terracotta brick fireplace. The room is furnished with two double sofas and an armchair. Steps lead up to a small landing from where there is access through a glass door to a sunny, furnished terrace facing the pool area and the rest of the hamlet. Further steps lead up to the mezzanine floor which has a couple of armchairs.
From the landing there is access to a small hall, which also has a door to the terrace facing the pool area. At the far end of hall is a bathroom with shower. Up five steps from the hall is a double bedroom which can be set up as a twin on request. The bedroom has a high ceiling and is furnished with a large wardrobe and a chest of drawers.
Exiting a second door from the bedroom there is a small corridor, off which is a bathroom with shower. To the other side of the corridor is a double bedroom, that cannot be made into a twin. In the room is a large 3 door wardrobe.
It is about 200 metres to the swimming pool and tennis court.

Dom w spokojnej lokalizacji, cisza i piękne widoki. Duży zadaszony taras z wygodnymi meblami, idealny na posiłki czy relaks na powietrzu. W domu na parterze bardzo duża i otwarta przestrzeń dzienna z kuchnią w pełni wyposażoną. Na pietrze dwie duże sypialnie i dwie łazienki z prysznicami. Wszystko czyste i bardzo wygodne. W domu mimo upałów jest przyjemnie chłodno, brak klimatyzacji nie przeszkadza. W pobliżu basen i leżaki z parasolami, przyjemna woda. Odległość nie jest duża a jednocześnie nie dochodzą hałasy. Prywatność w domu i jego otoczeniu zapewniona. Droga dojazdowa szutrowa, ale bez problemu można dojechać.
Pyszne kolacje w pobliskich miejscowościach - Gaiole in Chianti- Lo Sfizio Di Bianchi, San Sano- La Grotta della Rana, Volpaia- La Bottega di Volpaia. Przepiękne popołudnie na degustacji win i posiłku w winnicy Casanuova di Ama. Bardzo polecamy.
