Solaria di Santa Maddalena 14, Castelnuovo Berardenga, Siena and Chianti Graced with views of hills cloaked in vineyards and olive groves, this generous-sized villa is a well located as well as a comfortable choice for large groups or families of up to 14 guests. These well looked after quarters are enveloped by a wonderful garden, planted with Mediterranean trees and shrubs, in which is set a private pool complete with umbrella-dotted terrace. When you fancy straying beyond the villa's gate, you'll find the town of Vagliagli is just around the corner and Siena and Florence are within easy reach, too. Inside the villa, there are seven spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms spread over three floors, each decorated in its own style. Some of the rooms feature sofas should guests require a little time out from the general hubbub. But for those convivial moments, there are two separate lounges, as well as a dining room with large windows onto the garden. The furnished terrace and balcony both make perfect spots for al fresco dining. On warmer evenings, there's no better place to sit back and enjoy a glass of wine made with grapes grown on the hills right in front of you. This roomy villa offers the best of both worlds for larger groups. It has everything you require to enjoy Tuscany together in style, including enough space to opt out for a little quiet time should the mood take you. You'll undoubtedly want to spend much of your time unwinding by the pool, where the views are breathtaking, but there's plenty to explore nearby, too. Don't miss the wineries, the 14th-century fortress at Castellina in Chianti, and, of course, glorious Siena. Ground Floor Kitchen Fully equipped kitchen, doors leading to the terrace.
