Guests will appreciate the unspoiled warmth and authenticity of this rejuvenating destination. Its meter-thick stone walls, barrelled and beamed ceilings, and terracotta tile floors were restored but left intact, immediately signifying to guests they are staying in the real Tuscany. The furnishings, many of which were made by local craftsmen, are not only stylish but exceedingly comfortable, encouraging guests to unwind and feel at home. And artwork by regional artists adorns nearly every wall and niche to capture guests' imaginations.
The hills south of Florence, known as the Chianti, are something out of a postcard. Fortress towns look out over mile after mile of rolling, vine-clad fields, spotted with Tuscany villas. Nearby Castellina in Chianti (12km) offers perhaps the most quintessentially Tuscan walking district of any of the Chiantigiana's storied towns. Walk its cobblestoned pathways meandering by art galleries, boutiques, bars, and restaurants serving authentic regional fare. Greve, Panzano Gaiole and Radda in Chianti are also a short drive away.
The region’s major annual festival, September’s Rassegna del Chianti Classico in Greve, celebrates the grape harvest, and signs inviting anyone on a Chianti holiday to a roadside enoteca (wine tasting canteen or shop) are a common sight.
Other nearby places to visit include San Gimignano, Siena, and Monteriggioni. Florence, the gem of Tuscany, is just 45 minutes from the property.
