Al Bosco is the dream of a beautifully restored stone house
in a peaceful setting just three minutes' drive from the tiny village of San Donato
in Poggio, in the heart of Chianti. This estate of about 16 hectares is mostly
natural woodland. The rest is cultivated with olive trees and vineyards, and a
stream on the southern edge of the property is stocked with trout during the winter
months. San Donato is an ideal base
for visiting the medieval hill towns of Tuscany, as well as the famous wineries
of the Chianti Valley. Charming towns like Castellina in Chianti (10 minutes)
and Tavenelle in Val di Pesa (20 minutes) are nearby, as well as the treasures
of Florence (20 minutes) and Siena (30 minutes). In the village of San Donato,
you will find public tennis courts as well as a bakery, coffee bar, restaurant,
and a fantastic butcher shop, and this village is in walking distance of Al Bosco.

The
beautiful, fenced-in swimming pool (7 x 14 m) is set in the garden and is surrounded by flower-filled
terracotta urns. The adjacent dining patio with BBQ and wood oven is the perfect
setting for al fresco dining.
Because
the pool is unfenced, the property is not recommended for toddlers and very small
children, and young children should be well supervised.
