Fantastic hillside villa and infinity pool overlooking the Chianti countryside and the medieval walled village of San Gusmè.
A large Villa, Chiusarella is set on the slopes of a small hill within the 'Villa D'Arceno' Estate, a one thousand hectare nature reserve. Once the home of those who worked the land for the landlord whose seat was the nearby 'Villa Arceno' built in 1671.
Chiusarella has been renovated to high standards, and with modern conveniences, is now for those who wish to enjoy the relaxing calm of the Chianti countryside in luxury and comfort. Ideal for family groups or friends' ‘get togethers’.
Chiusarella's guests have the services of a complimentary Concierge, provided by a professional with many years of Five Star Hotel experience. Our guests can plan ahead for unique 'Tuscan' moments, for once in a lifetime experiences. From onsite cookery classes with a Tuscan chef; expert guided wine tours of Tuscany's exclusive wineries; horse riding amidst Villa Arceno's vineyards and cypress avenues; or a day at the Palio, the famous horse race in Siena, originating in medieval times.
Chiusarella boasts a large patio area perfect for 'aperitivo al fresco'. A long wooden table under an extensive porch for breakfast or dinner perhaps, cooked on the large barbecue. Lunch may also be taken here, shaded from the midday sun or under the shade at the poolside terrace.
The house is built in traditional 'Tuscan' style, stone with brick surrounds in doorways and openings. Chestnut beams and terracotta ceilings complete the scene. Elegantly and tastefully decorated and furnished, the house is light and airy. For chilly nights there are a television room and living room both with fireplaces to cosy up to.
Four double bedrooms, three with en-suite bathrooms allow for privacy, each having views over the hills, vineyards and olive groves.
Around the house are many seating areas from which to enjoy the views over San Gusmè, and the Chianti to the towers of Siena. To the South 'Le Crete', the famous Tuscan hills beloved of photographers and artists, (a UNESCO world heritage site).
High above the house is an 'infinity' swimming pool and annex, the 'annesso' with changing room, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, patio with a second barbecue and even more stunning vistas. With lots of seating this private paradise allows complete relaxation around the pool and for talented chefs to practice their culinary arts over hot coals.
Surrounded by the forest, binoculars and cameras are a must for spotting birds, deer, porcupines and other wildlife.
