Beautiful Tuscan farmhouse with stunning views of Chianti countryside

The house and grounds were absolutely wonderful! There is no place I'd rather stay in Tuscany.

We had a lovely 10 days at Casa del Fico, enjoying the breathtaking view from the garden in April with all the flowers beginning to bloom. The house itself was beautifully decorated in the Tuscan style, and comfortable for our group of 5. It was the perfect base from which to explore all the neighboring towns: Siena, Greve, Radda in Chianti, Pienza, San Gimignano, Montepulciano, and of course Castellina in Chianti, the nearest village. Our favorite restaurant in Castellina was La Torre. And our favorate local wine was from the nearby vineyard of Lilliano.

This property is beautiful and the hosts were so good at communicating with us before and during our stay. This home is so peaceful and really serine. We had Serina cook for us one night and we had another meal and a half afterward. We hope to return again and spend more time here.

We literally have adored this place and the house was very comfortable, well equipped, and simply warm and welcoming. The views around Le Bagnaie are exceptionally beautiful and filled us with joy and peaceful emotions at every moment of the day: When opening the shutters in the morning, when going to the vegetable garden for picking up some delicious tomatoes or eggplants for our lunch, when at the pool in the afternoon or early evening, when looking at the sunset in the direction of San Giminiano and looking up at the shooting stars at night! We enjoyed many going-outs, to Siena, San Giminiano, Volterra, Colle di Val D’Elsa and, as a crowning point, to Panzano to the very special butcher’s restaurant. We especially enjoyed the garden of Casa del Fico, a little paradise which invited to long hours of reading on the lounging chairs. We also had many walks in the immediate vicinity of the house, up to Fonterutoli, sparkled with encounters with deers and boars. Jackie, Serena and Cosimo were all real treats. Jackie the manager made feel very much “at home”, Serena, the cook prepared us feasts and Cosimo, the gardener, is delightful and charming and deserves the awards of the “ green palms”! We will come back even though we live so far away, with our sons and grand-children hopefully next times. Our guests ( friends and family) join us in celebrating the “ravissement” and we will all keep fond memories of these two weeks!
