The Fruits of Chianti

Nestled within the iconic green hills of Tuscany, close to the charming hilltop town of Radda, this beautifully restored farmhouse has everything you need for a good time – delicious food, great wine and quality time with loved ones. Both the interior and exterior boast traditional features, with wooden-beamed ceilings, terracotta tiles and exposed brick creating a cosy atmosphere and a sense of authenticity. The lawn is beautifully kept and offers a private pool and outdoor shower, which provide an invigorating start to the day.

Once you're feeling refreshed, it's time to explore – get the mountain bikes out from the bike shed and go for a scenic cycle into town for a cultural adventure. This quintessential Tuscan town is home to upmarket boutiques, art galleries and 360-degree panoramic views thanks to its high position. Wine lovers will be in their element in Chianti – we highly recommend spending an afternoon wine tasting in one of the area's many boutique wineries. Be sure to take a bottle home to enjoy on the terrace with dinner. Speaking of dinner, you'll have your own summer kitchen here, with a wood-burning grill that's perfect for crafting delicious and hearty meals for the whole family. Once you've finished your alfresco feast, relaxation is on the cards, with a private hot tub and sauna ready and waiting for you.
