The Estate

A Hillside Haven in the Heart of Chianti

La Valle is set on a secluded ridge surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and the rolling hills of Chianti Classico. With panoramic views in every direction — including clear views of Castello Sezzate and Castello Mugnana — the estate an exclusive retreat for guests to enjoy. A natural waterfall pond adds to the serene landscape, while a scenic walking path leads directly from the property to Castello Mugnana, ideal for a peaceful morning hike or afternoon stroll. Thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces for dining, relaxing, and exploring allow guests to fully experience the quiet beauty of the Tuscan countryside.

Outdoor Dining Terraces

La Valle offers three distinct outdoor dining areas, each designed to complement the rhythm of the day and the surrounding landscape. At the front of the villa, a long stone terrace welcomes guests with a dining table that comfortably seats 8–10, perfect for leisurely lunches beneath the sun or candlelit dinners under a canopy of stars. Adjacent to the kitchen, a smaller terrace lined with flowers and herb pots provides a lovely spot for breakfast or an afternoon aperitivo. At the rear of the property, another generous terrace opens directly from the living and dining rooms, offering uninterrupted views of olive groves, vineyards, and the gentle curve of the valley beyond.

Pizza Oven & Outdoor Grill

Tucked into the garden beneath a grapevine-draped pergola, the estate’s traditional wood-fired pizza oven brings authentic Tuscan flavors to your table. A rustic dining area nearby seats 4–6 guests, making it a charming setting for hands-on pizza nights or relaxed midday meals. In late summer, the pergola’s vines are heavy with sweet strawberry grapes, which guests are welcome to pick and enjoy. Just beside the oven, a built-in outdoor grill is available for preparing grilled meats, vegetables, or seafood — ideal for al fresco cooking with views stretching toward the Castello Mugnana.

The Pool Garden

Set on a lower terrace below the main villa, the pool garden offers both privacy and wide, uninterrupted views of the valley. The pool is lined in natural marble and stays refreshingly cool throughout the summer, thanks to the estate’s elevation. Surrounding the pool, manicured lawns and flowering shrubs create a peaceful, garden-like atmosphere, with stone paths leading through the greenery. With six loungers, two oversized pool chairs, and umbrellas, it’s a comfortable space to unwind from morning through late afternoon.

La Valle carries the memory of centuries — from medieval stonework to 16th-century walls — carefully restored to live on with grace and purpose.
