The Tuscany region

Tuscany does not need any presentation! The cities with its history and art attractions, the medieval villages, the special food and wine, the welcoming people make it a region with a matchless offer.
Villa PetrAlexa is situated in the heart of this region, in the Chianti hills, midway between Siena and Firenze reachable respectively in 30 and 45 minutes by car. Immersed in this famous hills for its wine brand “Gallo Nero”, between vineyards and olive-groves the villa enjoys a position which will permit you to isolate yourself from the rest of the world and take delight of the charm of these land, but with the comfort to have the nearest centre only a short drive away: Radda in Chianti, delicious small village, with its election of restaurants and shops, a pharmacy, a bank, a cinema, many bars, Internet Cafe, wine and food tasting opportunities.

What else??
All Chianti villas offer you a central position to enjoy this region!!!
Value I want to add to your stay is give you the opportunity to taste my wine, appreciate a Tuscan meal cooked by a Chef at home or take part to cooking lessons to bring back home some more Tuscan experience.
With pleasure I help you arrange wine/oil tasting and visits to wineries.
