Description Chianti Belle: Gaiole in Chianti

This 17th-century villa in the heart of the Chianti countryside offers far-reaching views across the vineyards and olive groves out to Siena. You're within walking distance of Lecchi, as well as being a fifteen-minute drive from Radda in Chianti for dreamy day trips exploring the region. A car is recommended to get the most out of your stay here. Outside, you'll find a well-kept garden lined with cypress trees, as well as a private pool. But our favourite spot has to be up on the dining terrace, which provides some beautiful views over the hilly surroundings and is ideal for alfresco feasts together.

Home truths:
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s private parking for up five cars. The drive will be hilly and often uneven at times.
