Wish list: a restored stone barn, deep in the heart of Chianti, surrounded by castles and quaint villages. If this chimes with you, then Trifoglio will tick every box. Trifoglio’s compact size makes it most suitable for a couple or a small family, yet you'll appreciate the generously spaced open-plan living area, where large glass doors give serene views of a landscape dotted with forests, olive groves and vineyards. This is a Tuscan gem, with its floors paved with traditional terracotta tiles, as well as the classic tiled-and-beamed ceilings, plus inviting recesses and an impressive internal stone archway.
While the living area is spacious and light-filled, you are likely to be drawn outside to the large paved terrace and shaded pergola, where the table and chairs enable al fresco dining with fetching views of the Chianti countryside. You can also enjoy the scene from the pool area, where there is a wonderful well-kept and large lawn bordered by trees and flower beds that are extremely easy on the eye. This is a perfect spot to sunbathe or enjoy late afternoon drinks in the shade of the gazebo.

Our Thoughts
You will really appreciate the thought and effort that has gone into restoring Trifoglio. The owners have successfully preserved the rustic exterior but incorporated modern comforts inside, with stylish decoration to match. When it’s time to explore, the market town of Gaiole in Chianti is a short drive away, with Siena and Florence just a little further. On your return, drinks or dinner on the terrace or in the poolside gazebo are bound to beckon. In Barbischio at walking distance you will find a lovely restaurant.
