Albero sits in the hills above Radda in Chianti, 1.5km from the village, looking out over vineyards and olive groves. The house is built around a medieval stone tower, restored and fitted out as a wine bar with a billiards table; the owners produce their own wine on the estate and run tastings for guests on request. The road up to the parking area is fully asphalted, which isn't a given this far into the hills.

Within the villa's garden, you'll discover a heated swimming pool complete with a gazebo, a dedicated children's playground, and a shaded patio, perfect for enjoying breakfast and al fresco meals. For guests seeking to maintain an active lifestyle, Albero also features a gym and a wellness area complete with a Turkish bath, ensuring a well-rounded experience during your stay.

The villa inludes breakfast, served indoors or on the terrace: cold cuts and cheese, vegetables and salad, seasonal fruit, chia pudding or porridge, yoghurt, home-made granola, bread and pastries, honey and jam, coffee, tea, and a smoothie or fresh-squeezed juice depending on the season. Cow's and plant milk both available.

The owners produce their own wine on the estate and run a tasting in their cellar every Wednesday at 2:30pm. Guests get a welcome dinner on the Monday after arrival, cooked by the villa staff, and can arrange cooking lessons in the professional kitchen at any point during the stay. The tower has been fitted out as a wine bar, so there's somewhere to drink what you tasted that afternoon.

Reviews

“ It took our breath away ”

Albero is a villa in a class of its own. When we visited the house, it took our breath away - and this is no exaggeration. Here, luxury and comfort have been seamlessly combined, from a private vegetable garden to iPads in the walls that control the music and heating. The friendly housekeepers were the icing on the cake, as you can tell their hearts are truly in it.

Around Albero

While Albero provides breathtaking panoramic views of the Chianti hills and is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and woodlands, it is also conveniently situated near medieval villages and the cultural treasures of the region's main art cities.

A short 10-minute drive from the villa will transport you to Radda in Chianti, and in under half an hour, you can explore the Renaissance castles, churches, and monasteries that grace the area.

The splendid Tuscan cities of Arezzo, Florence, and Siena are all within an hour's drive, while a bit further afield lies the historical Val d'Orcia, home to picturesque towns such as Pienza and Montepulciano.

Upon your return to the villa, you can anticipate a warm welcome from the owners, esteemed wine producers who are pleased to offer wine-tasting sessions and the chance to visit their winery upon request. Additionally, the villa's dedicated staff can arrange cooking lessons, conducted in the well-equipped professional kitchen.

See our Booking Conditions and XCover for more information. Need to change dates? Let us know - we can often modify your booking rather than cancelling outright.

Worth Knowing
