Villa in Palaia

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviews

Valle

Once a farmhouse and hayloft, the recently restored villa Valle is now a luxurious country retreat. With seven bedrooms divided between the main house and guest cottage and expansive yet private outdoor spaces, the property gives guests plenty of room to relax. But it’s also in the heart of Tuscany, close enough to the cities of Pisa, Florence, Siena and Lucca for day trips. Restored in 2007, the villa is now air-conditioned and has a Wi-Fi connection and gated access. The enclosed garden has a broad lawn and bocce court, and the main house and guest cottage are connected by a terrace with a pool, barbecue and outdoor dining area. Adults can while away the afternoon over a book in the sun room, and kids can entertain themselves in the billiards room. The interiors of Valle are warm and comfortable, drawing country charm from restored rustic fireplaces and beamed ceilings in the living spaces. With warm yellow walls, damask drapes and traditional-style furnishings, the living room is cozy and welcoming. A formal dining room is decorated in rich, earthy Tuscan reds and golds that glow under a chandelier and sconces. The sunny, modern eat-in kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar. There are five bedrooms in the villa’s main house and two bedrooms in the guest cottage. In the main house, you’ll find three bedrooms with king beds, one bedroom with a double bed and one bedroom with a queen bed. Each of the five bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom and air conditioning. In the guest house, there’s one bedroom with a double bed and one bedroom with a single bed; both are air-conditioned and have bathroom access. During your stay, take the time to stroll the estate on which the villa is located, or walk to the local church, 15 minutes away. By car, it’s only 5 minutes to downtown, which offers a grocery store, restaurant and seasonal truffle sales and tastings. A tennis court and clinic are 10 minutes away, and a hospital and train station are 36 km away. Enjoy a leisurely afternoon at the golf course, 45 km away, or the beach, 48 km away. When it’s time to leave, it’s a 35 km drive to the airport. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

Villa in Radda in Chianti

5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviews

Villa Montemaggio

The Tuscan sun soaks into the stone walls of this 17th-century farmhouse—and into the grapes clustered in the organic vineyards in the surrounding Chianti countryside. The Roman road from Siena to Florence once traced these hills; today, they’re home to the 70-hectare Montemaggio estate, which produces organic wine and olive oil. Siena is 40 minutes away by modern road; Florence, 1 hour. Smell the flowers in the gardens, pick fresh mulberries and figs to snack on, and see if you and the kids can find the playhouse hidden away on the estate’s grounds. There’s a private gym for workouts, a swimming pool for refreshment, and a rooftop terrace just made for the evening’s first bottle of local wine. While the villa still has some of its 17th-century farmhouse charm—spot beamed ceilings, doorways framed in elaborate molding, and a wide hearth on the living room fireplace—it’s been fully renovated. A pair of plump sofas invites you to stay a while in the living room, and there are plenty of chairs around the dining table that takes center stage in the fully equipped kitchen. Learn more about the Montemaggio estate by booking a cooking class, featuring fresh produce from the gardens, or a wine tour. Be sure to ask about the festivals in nearby villages, which range from celebrations of wine to a fete dedicated to bruschetta. Beyond Tuscany’s medieval towns and fortresses, the cities of Siena and Florence are close enough for a day trip. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.
