TWO HOLIDAY RENTAL APARTMENTS IN CHIANTI, BOTH SLEEP 4
The old farm of Pietreto is located on a hill top, about 485 metres above
sea level, in the heart of Chianti, only 27km from Florence and 30 km from
Siena. Positioned between the mediaeval villages of San Donato (3km) and
Castellina (6km), in the heart of the Chianti Classico area, the property is
surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, orchards and woods.
The quiet location
and broad views of the countryside are the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday,
and the location of the apartments is ideal for visiting
famous art cities such as Florence, Siena, Lucca, San Gimignano, Pisa, Volterra,
as
well as the nearby villages of the famous Chianti Classico area: Greve, Barberino
Val d’Elsa, Radda, Gaiole, Tavarnelle, San Casciano with their churches and
abbeys, castles and fortresses, farmhouses and villas.
In the village of San
Donato, only 3km away, there are some grocery stores, a supermarket, a pharmacy,
doctors, two banks, a Post Office, a petrol station,
wine shops where you can taste the famous Chianti Classico wines, and a museum
of country culture. In the Romanesque Pieve di San Donato you can admire
the baptismal font in glazed earthenware by Giovanni della Robbia.
Both San Donato and Castellina have several excellent restaurants, taverns, and
inns.
In the neighbourhood you'll find tennis courts, a golf course, fishing, and horse
riding possibilities. You can rent a mountain-bike on our farm, and our gentle
hills are full of shady lanes, perfect for cycling or trekking.
