Farmhouse Leontina
Take
a holiday in a lovely farmhouse on the Chianti hills
in San Gimignano, Siena. The farmhouse nestles on a
lush 40-hectare agricultural estate in San Gimignano,
Italy, on the top of the hills of Chianti offering tremendous
views of the surrounding countryside. There are four
completely restored 16th century farmhouses available
for rent. These awesome farmhouses are furnished in
the Tuscan style and are bright and airy with beautiful
antiques and all the modern conveniences. Each farmhouse
is independent and private making it perfect for individual
families or larger groups of up to 15 persons who can
spend a great time in San Gimignano, Italy. The estate
rolls into a wild and natural parkland with many activities
for the guests to enjoy. Private and tranquil, the estate
is surrounded by woodland and is home to wildlife such
as, hares, pheasants, wild-boars, roe bucks, badgers,
bald coots, or wild ducks.
Guests can relax and be at peace with Nature while
they enjoy the scenic views with the surrounding gardens
and vineyards or just relaxing at the estate lake. The
guests can enjoy picnics in the wooden chalet and the
patio area. There are plenty of things for the guests
to enjoy besides trekking and jogging down the paths
in the lovely countryside. The guests can also hire
an estate mountain bike to explore the area. There is
horseback riding and golf available nearby. Or the guests
who love a daring time will enjoy a ride in a hot air
balloon. The guests can visit the local thermal area
for a relaxing thermal bath or enjoy a vigorous game
of tennis at the estate tennis courts or leisurely pass
the day sunbathing at the large estate swimming pool.
The area houses many local trattorias for delectable
typical Tuscan dinners. Major Tuscan tourist attractions
such as Siena and Florence are perfect day trips. The
local shops and facilities of San Gimignano are only
11 kilometers away.
The farmhouse has several entrances. The main entrance
opens from the ground floor through a covered portico
into a hall. A landing in the hall has a spacious, fully-equipped
kitchen with an electric range, an electric oven, a
dishwasher and a refrigerator/freezer. The kitchen also
has an open-hearth fireplace that is ideal for grilling
meat. There are stairs off the entrance hall that lead
to 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom has a double bed,
a fireplace, panoramic windows, a small balcony and
an ensuite bathroom. A second bedroom has two twin beds
(can be joined upon request) and an ensuite bathroom.
The third bedroom is a double room and has an ensuite
bathroom. Modern and antique Tuscan pieces furnish the
farmhouse throughout. The ceilings are wood-beamed and
floors are traditional Tuscan cotto. A terrace opens
off the farmhouse veranda. It offers panoramic views
and the large oak trees make a shady canopy that is
ideal for enjoying a summer meal ‘al fresco’.
