An enchanting villa in the heart of Tuscany, enjoy glorious panoramic views over rolling countryside from the spacious Casa Babbuccia. Converted from an ancient castle's granary, up to 12 guests can spend blissfully slow days visiting one sleepy Chianti village to the next before stopping off at a local winery to sample the region's finest.

Chianti's gentle landscape is peppered with hilltop towns, reached by driving through miles of shady olive groves and mellow vineyards. A short drive from the villa, the laid-back town of Castelnuovo Berardenga is a charming spot for an al fresco lunch in the piazza, followed by an afternoon exploring the quaint shops and ancient churches that line its cobblestone streets. Ask your dedicated concierge to organise a tour of nearby Siena so you can immerse yourself in its beautiful architecture and gourmet delights.

Casa Babbuccia's sophisticated contemporary styling sits happily alongside original terracotta tiles, creating a warm and welcoming ambience. Curl up on one of the living room's plush sofas by the commanding stone fireplace or catch a movie on the flat screen in the second living space. The well-equipped country-style kitchen forms the heart of this home, opening seamlessly onto a wisteria-covered pergola for al fresco dining. A tranquil exercise room and home office complete this villa's generous offering.

The villa's six bedrooms offer a haven for rest and are infused with modern Italian elegance. Four of the handsome bedrooms are ensuite, three of which house a double bed, and the fourth features two twin-size beds. The final two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with two twin beds, share a bathroom.

Casa Babbuccia flows onto the most stunning outdoor space with a large saltwater pool. As the golden light of a Tuscan sunset softens the idyllic landscape around the villa, fire up the BBQ and pop open a bottle of Chianti on the covered terrace.
