Places to stay in Castellina in Chianti

Everything about our stay was so perfect! Pino was very kind. We really appreciated that we received his great olive oil as a welcome gift (and decided later to buy several bottles in the small shop, and also a bottle of his wine!). Our cabin was the last one, which gives you a lot of privacy, nobody is walking past it. The cabin has everything you need, but we spent most of our time on the lovely veranda (we especially loved the hammock!). The view is so beautiful and the place is just so peaceful. You are surrounded by nature, like the olive trees, and we could even see a flock of sheep on the other side each day, which was an adorable sight. This place really allowed us to relax, which is exactly what we were looking for. Hopefully we will be able to come back one day. Thanks again for everything, Pino!

We’ve had a lovely week at Podere Grignano, a haven of peace, tranquility and greenery. It’s isolated, but that’s why we chose the location. The last kilometre of the road is quite rough. Just go slow! You can shop at Volterra, 35 minutes away. No osterias or trattorias nearby. But Podere has excellent cooking facilities so we had a wonderful time preparing and consuming the local produce and wine. Bedroom was spacious and comfortable, bathroom modern and water is hot. Stefano and Roberta are lovely hosts, discrete but helpful- and the owner, Marco, gives you detailed instructions on how to find Podere. The attached cottage is BEAUTIFUL, just as the pictures show. It was spotlessly clean, had lots of little extras: Stefano gave us a bottle of their magnificent olive oil. We spent the week visiting numerous hilltop towns (including San Gimignano, but seriously, there are tiny gems that avoid the tourist hordes.) Love the views, love the accommodation, love the countryside. Come here…

As a family of 4, we had a perfect stay at La Lucertola. Luisa and Colin were friendly, attentive and helpful from the minute we arrived to when we left. They were available on the phone throughout, if needed. The music studio was an incredible addition - we felt very lucky to have access to it throughout our stay. The accommodation is located up a narrow track, but this meant we had access to stunning views and wildlife all around. Although the pool was cold, due to the time of year we visited, it didn’t stop us using it a couple of times. The pool is perfectly located - overlooking Pisa. There was plenty of seating around the pool and, although other families were staying in the house next door, it didn’t once feel like we couldn’t use any of the facilities. Other great facilities worth mentioning - the pizza oven is such an experience - to make pizzas overlooking the tower of Pisa, in Italy, was incredible. We also had all the cleaning items and linen we needed too. Grazie.

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen, entspannten Aufenthalt auf Bellavista. Angela und ihr Vater waren überaus gastfreundlich. Wir wurden mit eigenem Wein, selbstgemachtem Gepäck und hofeigenen Früchten versorgt. Der Aufenthalt auf Bellavista hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt und sind wir irgendwann erneut in der Gegend, kommen wir wieder! Familie Wehrli

Really enjoyed our stay Chiara’s place. The view from the patio and the pool is spectacular. This was such a nice break from the busy hustle of the cities and one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. Would recommend this spot to anyone who wants to get away for a day or two.

정말 멋진 풍경이 돋보이는 숙소입니다. 침구도 깨끗하고 욕실도 청결했어요. 그네2개, 미끄럼틀이있는 놀이터도있고 정원도있으며 산토끼,고양이, 산새들, 달팽이... 등등 동물들로 아이들이 행복해했답니다. 호스트분들이 너무 친절하시고 다정하셔서 감사했어요. 또 가고싶은 숙소추천입니다.

Can’t speak highly enough of elivra and her friends. So helpful and fabulous. Elivra you are a real champ and wonderful person. If airbnb awarded gold medals to their hosts you’d have a drawer full Thank you Michael and Fiona

À notre arrivée, nous avons constaté que la piscine était partagée. Ce point aurait dû être précisé avant la réservation. Ceci dit, tout le reste était parfait. La maison est belle, spacieuse, propre. Carla a été très agréable. Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour.
