It is an extremely well presented property set in 35 acres of beautiful grounds with a traditional cosy feel inside, but in this case cosy is not accompanied by fusty fabrics and dustiness, on the contrary Chiocchio is so well looked after that it belies its 11th century origins and offers Wi-Fi and air-conditioning in bedrooms. It is an appealing blend of comfort and elegance, large rooms brimming with character, rich colours, vaulted ceilings, large fireplaces, wood and terracotta. The library, drawing, billiard and dining rooms could all adorn the pages of any interiors magazine and the sensational country kitchen fills you with admiration.
With its lovely interiors, tennis court, stone lined-swimming pool, bocce court and Italian gardens it makes for a sensational Chianti experience.
