La Porcilaia at Pretaccione

Pretaccione is a small and atmospheric hamlet set in the heart of the Chianti Classico. Its name recalls the rural priests who lived here in the Middle Ages. Today, the hamlet is a harmonious collection of carefully restored, individually owned cottages and apartments. Each has its own furnished outdoor space, ideal for relaxed al fresco meals, a glass of Chianti at sunset, or simply unwinding in peaceful surroundings. A lovely shared  pool offers welcome refreshment on warm summer days, while the on-site tennis court provides an extra option for those who enjoy staying active. Pretaccione combines privacy, tranquillity and authentic Tuscan character in a very appealing way.

Its location is ideal for exploring the region. San Sano is just five minutes away by car with a traditional restaurant and small grocery shop, while Lecchi can be reached in around ten minutes and Gaiole in about fifteen, offering restaurants, shops and a supermarket. Radda is also close by. Walking enthusiasts will appreciate the Dievole Natural Path, which starts right on the doorstep and offers kilometres of marked woodland trails. Siena is only 20 minutes away, and Arezzo, San Gimignano and Florence are all easily reached for day trips.
