This Tuscan cottage can be found amid beautiful gardens with views of the gently rolling hills. The land used to be a vineyard, but has been restored into a resort of cottages and apartments in the style of an authentic Tuscan hamlet – the result is charming. This petite home is rustic and traditional, so the decor won’t be to everyone’s taste – and the steep spiral staircase might prove tricky for some. But beyond that, you can look forward to a shared outdoor pool and tennis court, a hot tub, and a lovely dining terrace. You can stroll into the village of Lecchi in Chianti, and the popular town of Radda in Chianti is just a fifteen-minute drive.
