Villa “Sole del Chianti”, a hundred year old farmhouse which has been owned by the Fusi family for many years,
is situated in an oasis of green amidst centuries-old olive trees, where the air is filled with the fragrance
of cypress trees and wild herbs. The Farmhouse has recently been elegantly renovated to reflect the taste
and style of the owners who, whilst providing the building with every comfort, have chosen to preserve its
original structure with open beam ceilings, brick arches and terracotta floors, in accordance with the
architectural tradition of the Chianti district.
The farmhouse is set in open countryside just a few kilometers from the town of Tavarnelle Val di Pesa,
and is an ideal place for a quiet and relaxing stay. Guests can also enjoy the splendid swimming pool with Jacuzzi
and the delightful Wellbeing Center.
The Villa has four floors:
Lower floor: this is where the “Calidarium” Wellbeing Center is located. It has a heated Jacuzzi pool, sauna,
automatic Shiatsu massage bed, gym, 2 showers and a changing room. The wellbeing center is available exclusively
to our guests. Massages and beauty treatments are available on request.
Ground floor: a large paved area, once the farmyard, leads into a big, characteristic terracotta room with stone
walls, open beams and arches that offers a truly unique atmosphere thanks to the cheerful crackling of the fire
in the typical Tuscan fireplace. This floor also contains three fully equipped kitchens where it is possible to prepare delicious Tuscan meals, a room with a fireplace and a large living room - also with a typical Tuscan fireplace - that can be used by all the Villa’s guests. There is also a large bedroom with double bed, private bathroom with shower and bathtub, air conditioning, telephone and Internet access, satellite TV and mosquito nets. From each of the kitchens and rooms it is possible to access the outdoor areas provided with all the necessary equipment for enjoying open-air lunches and suppers, as well as comfortable sunbeds and hammocks.
First floor: there are 6 bedrooms with double beds and 1 bedroom with twin beds. The double bedroom named
Il Contadino also has a mezzanine floor with a comfortable double sofa bed. The characteristic feature of Il
Garzone bedroom is the large terrace with its splendid view of the Florentine countryside.
Il Guardia has a private bathroom with a Jacuzzi bathtub. Il Treccone is a double room with twin beds that can be
joined together as required. The other three double bedrooms are: Il fattore which is all in yellow, the pink
La Massaia and the blue Il Sensale. All the bedrooms have a private bathroom, air conditioning, telephone, safe,
Internet access, satellite TV and mosquito nets. This floor also has a large lounge room with a fireplace and
small kitchen, and a games room with an Internet Point which is available to all the Villa’s guests.
Second floor: the “Il Capoccio” bedroom is located on the second floor. Situated above the roof, this was
a type of tower that offered shelter to the farm’s doves and pigeons. The high position makes it possible to
get a 360° view of the Tuscan countryside. Due to the particular characteristics of this floor, the private
bathroom for this bedroom has had to be situated in a reserved, private area on the first floor of the Villa.
