La Gavelli is a stylish 17th century Tuscan villa with modern amenities just south of Siena, with the ranging hills of the Val d’Orcia to the south and evergreen Chianti to the north. It has un-interrupted hilltop views and lies within a protected area of oaks and olive groves, rich with truffles and porcini mushrooms and interspersed with a network of paths.
Everything at La Gavelli is wonderfully thought out: The large 4.5 x 13m, infinity pool has a shallow end ideal for children, beautiful travertine terracing and views over the Montagnola Senese hills. All around are jasmine-scented terraces, covered pergolas, an enclosed courtyard with pizza oven and other shady areas perfect for reading, relaxing and al fresco dining. There are four restaurants within ten minutes’ drive and a nearby spa with thermal pool, gym, hammam and a full range of treatments available. The renowned Brunello wine region is under an hour away.
