Details

Description
The villa is set in a unique position, nestled in the enchanting Tuscan countryside. The estate is a true oasis of tranquility and provides the comfort and amenities for all needs and stays. The lovely, private swimming pool, is beautifully positioned, surrounded by gardens, vineyards and olive trees. This large open-air pool with surrounding stone terrace is protected by a fence, with locking gate, and thus ensures complete privacy. The pool measures 15 x 7 meters and goes from a depth of 1.20 to 1.40 meters... therefore offers the possibility to easily stand anywhere within the pool. Comfortable sun-beds provide total relaxation, either under the shade of the olive trees or at the pool’s edge. A splendid vine covered gazebo, with chairs and a table, offers refreshing shade, during the hottest hours of the day. As well, at poolside, there is an amazing Jacuzzi hot tub, an outdoor shower, a changing cabin and a small fridge to enjoy snacks or light drinks while sunbathing. In the warm weather months you can comfortably eat outdoors, under the large gazebo. A huge table and chairs for 18 people welcome you to the courtyard. In the garden there is also an amazing open air theatre where concerts, parties or private events can take place.
Finally, it's almost finished the construction of the 80sqm veranda on the back garden furnished with cozy sofas, but where can be placed up to 70 chairs. In case of bad weather the whole terrace can be covered with sliding glass doors.

The Guest House
The well-kept garden is equipped with 2 deck chairs and a round table for 4 people, perfect for al fresco meals. The lovely conservatory keeps the contact with nature even in bad weather and is an enchanting place where to eat meals, relax or read a book in a bright and quiet atmosphere. The room is simple but cozy and is furnished with a sofa, a smoking table with an elegant lampshade and a delightful round table with 4 chairs.

Attractions
Villa Castellare de' Sernigi is located nearby the town of Tavarnelle Val di Pesa, walking distance to restaurants, cafes, pharmacies, supermarkets, banks etc..
Located in the heart of Chianti, the villa is in a strategic position to visit all historical sites in Tuscany. Closest towns are the medieval Barberino Val d'Elsa, Greve in Chianti, the “capital city” of Chianti Wine, and Certaldo, the birthplace of Giovanni Boccaccio.
Tuscany, and particularly the Chianti area, offer a vast selection on activities for all tastes. Why don't starting just with wine and olive oil tours tastings without leaving the property ...within the Villa there is the Estate cellar, where, along with barrels with its own Chianti DOCG red wine, bottles of its olive oil are stored.
Sports addicted can explore paths and tracks of untouched environments on foot or by bike. The area is rich in horse clubs and golf courses.
Among the limitless choice of itineraries, one of the most original tour ideas might be visiting the places selected by famous movies directors for blockbusters movies such as Volterra and Montepulciano for "The New Moon" episode of the Twilight Saga, Cortona for “Under the Tuscan Sun” or Florence seen from the opposite perspectives of “Room with a View” and "Hannibal". The multi Oscar-awarded "Life is beautiful" and the homecoming scene in the "Gladiator" are also been shot in Tuscany.
