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.

Resort: Pretaccione

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.

Perfect holiday. Exceptional setting and location.

Siena was magical, Brolio and Dievole both fantastic, the shop at Lecchi a little gem and the sculpture park really great.

It's isolation and peacefulness. It was a good spacious villa
Long way from booking in at Rada and the villa, so we arrived in the dark.
Glasses and kitchenware not really adequate for 4 adults

The Trattoria in San Sano was excellent

Review date: 25.03.2015

The owner was most upset last season with the disruption to guests with the noise in the nearby field. This was out of their control and they apologise for the inconvenience.

To Tuscany recently visited Pretaccione and spoke with the winery owner of the fields around the hamlet. He has confirmed that there will be no further noise disruption. A vineyard has now been planted and the baby plants have begun to grow.

Nearest town

Pretaccione is located 4km from the small village San Sano and 6km from Lecchi in Chianti. The Chianti towns, Radda in Chianti and Gaiole in Chianti are 15 minutes drive away and Siena is 30 minutes.
