The farmhouse RONDINI BLU, to which belongs the apartment FOCOLARE rented to tourists, is located in the heart of the Chianti region, in the open countryside, 0,5 km far from the small village of Poppiano (where you may visit the ancient Poppiano Castle that dates back to the X century), and it is surrounded by fields of olive trees and vineyards.
RONDINI BLU is also producing its own wine and olive-oil. It is a perfect example of a Tuscan country villa, immersed in the tranquillity of the Tuscan countryside, mid-way among Florence and Siena. At your arrival, we will be glad to suggest you the best itineraries to discover the most beautiful little towns or villages in the Chianti area. On request, we may book for you the tickets to visit the Uffizi or Accademia museums in Florence, in order to avoid you to queue outside the museums many hours.
Guests are free to wander the estate, where there are over 20 acres of private land, ideal for enjoyable walks in the country. Immersed in all this peace and tranquillity, well kept gardens with lawns, mature oaks, flowering magnolias and pomegranate bushes surround the villa and the swimming-pool (15m x 7,5m). The swimming-pool, perfectly equipped, overlooks the olive groves and it is placed in an ideal spot for relaxing and enjoying a cooling dip. On request, we may cook for you breakfasts or typical homemade Tuscan dinners. COOKING CLASSES ON REQUEST. LAUNDRY SERVICE ON REQUEST.
