I Dream of Chianti

I Dream of Chianti: Tuscany

This former defence watchtower dating back to the 10th century has been beautifully reimagined into a corker of a family home. Within the palatial grounds, there's a ping-pong table, pool table, table-football set, and a children's playground to keep little ones busy and a private secluded pool and sauna for some adult relaxation time. It's worth noting a river runs through the grounds, so if you're travelling with little ones, you'll need to keep a watchful eye on them at all times. Location-wise, you're just a short drive from the bustling Chianti towns of Gaoile (3km) and Radda (7km). Or plan a day trip to Siena – you'll be there in less than an hour.

Home truths:
*While the fifth bedroom isn’t photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*A well-behaved dog is welcome to join you, but you’ll need to request with your host in advance.
*There is ample space for parking.
*The home’s owner lives next door in a small cottage with its own separate entrance. The owner's friendly dog lives onsite too.
*There is a gate separating the pool area from the rest of the garden. It's worth noting there is a river within the grounds, so little ones will need to be supervised at all times.
*The Wi-Fi is currently only available on the ground floor.
*A cot and high chair are available for little ones.
*Your nearest grocery shop is in Gaiole (3km)
