Description Tuscan Whisper: Gaiole in Chianti

In the quaint village of Lecchi in Chianti, this semi-detached cottage is part of Montebuoni, a Tuscan hamlet with stunning views of Chianti Classico's vineyards. While the little cottage and its private Mediterranean terrace are all yours, the swimming pools, tennis court and vast gardens are shared with other guests staying on this small resort. Inside, the space presents an authentic Italian countryside set-up with classic designs and contemporary touches to ensure comfort and functionality. It's worth noting that at full capacity – one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room here. You'll find Montebuoni's village centre 4 kilometres away, and day trips to Siena, Florence, and San Gimignano are also easily accessible by car.

Home truths:
*Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there’s free parking on the premises.
*The swimming pool, children's pool, tennis court and laundry facilities are shared with other guests staying at the private resort. Please note that the pool is open between May and October.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for an additional fee.
*We thought that the tennis court could do with a refurbishment. It is dated and not in an optimal state.
