Exploring the Chianti region of Tuscany while immersing yourself in luxury is possible at the luxurious Villa Certaldo. This accommodation boasts of a huge swimming pool to sprawling grounds and all the amenities indoors.
Located off of a paved, lightly traveled country road, this luxury villa is near the town of Certaldo. Having a population of only about 15,000, Certaldo is a charming small town where you can spend the day shopping, picking up groceries or go exploring Certaldo Alta, the old medieval village.
In July, you can merrily get entangled with the town’s lively Renaissance festival, where you’ll find street artists, actors as well as musicians in the midst of medieval architecture! For sure you will have a great time exploring the Pretorio Palace as well as the magnificent Certaldo castle in the horizon. If you like museums, then the house of Giovanni Boccaccio is the place to go.
As you enter the gate of this historic 14th century villa you’ll find yourself in a garden filled with cypress, pine, and oak trees. A large swimming pool with terra cotta decking, while more than 35 lemon trees release their fragrance into the air. The garden offers a splendid view of the medieval town of San Gimignano.
