La Locanda

You’ll love this place” is how a guest lovingly talked about the La Locanda.
In truth, it is a dream set in some of the most unspoilt landscapes of Chianti. Surrounded by vineyards, woods and olive groves, and overlooking Volpaia, a magnificent medieval village facing Radda in Chianti, what could you expect, for Chianti is already the creme de la creme. As for the house, originally a 16th century farm it has all the relaxed atmosphere of a comfortable country house and friendliness that comes from a family run atmosphere and small staff. In the larger house there are six double rooms and a suite, each with private bathroom.
The nearby former stables now house the sitting room with a large fire place, library with bar and dining room, leading to a large sunny terrace. Although the rooms have all modern conveniences, the furniture and colour schemes have been carefully chosen to keep the atmosphere of a private house. Next to the swimming pool there is a large terrace with breath-taking views for outdoor dining.
All this makes La Locanda the perfect retreat after visiting Chianti Classico cellars, a walk through the woods or a hard day’s sightseeing in nearby Florence, Siena, Arezzo or San Gimignano.
