Amazing stay in hilltop village

We loved this charming, rustic house (part of a bigger building with other accommodation). It's part of a tiny village at the top of a long track through olive groves. Fantastic views and a wonderful place to relax. Thoroughly recommend.

Peace and tranquility

Our stay in this enchanting little village was just perfection. Our renovated “barn” was so cozy and comfortable, Our host, Veronica could not have been more attentive to our needs (it was quite cold when we were there and she made sure we had fuel, etc to stay warm). She also brought us wine and olive oil from her family and a delicious tart. It was peaceful, beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. Thank you Veronica and Massimiliano for sharing your magical little corner of Italy! We certainly hope to return!

Wonderful house in a fantastic place

We spent a great time in this little spot in the middle of Chiantis forests and vineyards! Perfect calm nights, nice surrounding for walks and Toskanas attractions nearby. In the evening we loved sitting around the fireplace. A very special thank to Veronica and her warm welcome! Everything had been prepared for a first evening-including homemade wine and olive oil. We felt very much at home and had a great time. Hopefully we will be back some day! Best regards!!!

Perfect getaway in Tuscany

Wow! We could not be more pleased with our stay at Castellina in Chianti. We were greeted warmly, with welcome gifts (wine, olive oil, a delicious tart, and fresh fruit). The property provided us incomparable vistas from the generous terrace and along shady hiking trails. We were comfortable in the spacious living area and bedrooms. All amenities were in great working order and gave us just the respite we were seeking. Plus, after a long day of sightseeing in nearby Florence, the beautifully located swimming pool was the perfect way to cool off. We want to return and will recommend this lovely gem of a spot to our fellow travelers and friends!

Very hot nights in a beautiful environment

The village Il Granaio is picturesque and the view is stunning. You also have this great view in the pool and on the tennis court. The house itself has everything you need for a relaxing time, but the equipment is scatchy. There is a very good induction cooker, but the AC in the master bedroom, which is super loud and super big is cooling only one room in the house. You can't close the window, so it's a huge waste of energy! The host Veronika was friendly, helpful and flexible.

Super endroit à l'abri du monde, dans un paysage toscan enchanteur. La maison est charmante tout en restant très simple.

Sehr nettes Urlaubsdomizil

Wir haben uns prima erholt in diesem grandiosen Ferienhäuschen mit großer Terrasse und tollem Ausblick über die Toskana. Viele attraktive Ausflugsziele sind in der Nähe. Noch näher: Pool und Tennisplatz. Super! Das Haus selbst ist auch sehr schön und praktikabel eingerichtet. Natürlich gibt es auch Kritikpunkte, aber sie konnten unser sehr positives Gesamtfazit nicht beeinflussen; wir nennen sie trotzdem: Zu einer "fully equipped" Küche gehören unserer Meinung nach auch ein Geschirrspüler und eine Filter-Kaffeemaschine - beides fehlte aber. Und wozu gibt es Töpfe, die nicht für den Induktionsherd geeignet sind - die passenden mussten wir durch Ausprobieren herausfinden? Ein Fernseher hätte auch nicht geschadet, obwohl wir ihn dann in der tollen Urlaubsumgebung doch kaum vermisst haben.
