A charning and well equipped villa, well situated in the heart of the Chianti region. Decent sized pool and attractive gardens. Plenty of shade if needed. BBQ was well used and plenty of restaurants within a short drive. Washing machine is a good addition. Downstairs bedroom, below ground floor is a little dark and smelt unused when we arrived. We did not need to use that space however. Check in and out were efficient and the property manager visited twice more to clean the pool and water plants. Supermarket at Montevarchi stocked us up and there are several decent Coops in the area for essentials. All round a very good and relaxing stay.Villages of Radda, Volpaia and Castellina in Chianti are all nearby and worth visiting. San Gimingnano is a little further (1.15 hours on windy roads) and is a popular draw. Florence can be reached by train from Montevarchi. Two good restaurants in Gaiola (La Voglia and La Gorgia) and there are others including a takeaway Pizza place. Osteria Perano is a short drive away from Villa and is very good. Wine tasting, tour and dinner at Castello di Brolio was a highlight. Local wines are all excellent and you can drink wine from the vines growing on the borders of the property.
