Villa

A short distance from cycling, hiking trails, and more, this family-friendly villa lets you experience it all. Gaiole in Chianti Stadium is an easy 9-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers covered onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 6-minute drive to Meleto Castle.

After you return to this 1615-sq-ft villa, you can unwind by the communal pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and outdoor furniture. When you come inside, connect to the free WiFi or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV (video library available). There's also table tennis, a DVD player, and a stereo for your enjoyment.

A living room, a dining area, air conditioning, and an office are featured at this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, a bidet, and towels. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And you can even pack a bit lighter because there's a washer and dryer.
