Bosco at San Polino, Gaiole in Chianti - Siena and Chianti

For some, the most apt location for a Tuscan villa is the Chianti Classico wine region. San Polino is close to the village life of Lecchi in Chianti and the historic hill top delights of Radda in Chianti. Yet, distant enough to offer treasured private tranquillity in open landscapes.

This villa's valley vistas are manicured vineyards and hand-tended olive groves contrasted by the wild oak forests by them. The landmark San Polo in Rosso castle provides an elegant backdrop for San Polino's incurably pretty stone crafted farm buildings. Yet, the cultural wonders of Siena, San Gimignano and Florence are just a day trip away.

The chic country retreat of San Polino is pure Tuscan with designer elegance. Its authentic features lend the restored farmhouse a warm, homely feel. Terracotta tiles, wood beams, shuttered windows, vaulted reception rooms and arched doors all hark back to a simpler age while the contemporary colours and furnishing mean modern living.

The generous swimming pool is surrounded by shaded trees and loggia. And this must be the perfect spot for a sundowner as evening falls on another perfect day in Tuscany.

Bosco is a restored farmhouse. It can accommodate 8 - 10 people around the inside dining table below its postcard picture windows. The spacious sitting room opens to a covered terrace with a hot tub. The spectacular kitchen's arched doors front the external dining area from which you’ll enjoy magnificent views across the valley as you tuck into a freshly prepared Tuscan feast.
