This former lookout tower once guarded the passage between Florence and Siena. Today, it exists as a calm sanctuary offering idyllic views, a private pool and serene grounds. The rooms are spread across the main house and two independent apartments – making this a great option for groups looking to stretch out and socialise. All of the bedrooms have air conditioning and it’s a sweet option for families with plenty to explore in the surroundings. You will need a car to get around here, but it’s just 3 kilometres to Castellina in Chianti, while Siena is just a forty-minute drive away.
