welcome to Radicondoli!
In the green of the Tuscan countryside, a few kilometers
from the splendid cities of San Gimignano, Volterra, Siena,
Monteriggioni, Florence and the Chianti region, we find a small
town that once was the castle of
Radicondoli.
Here, in a fortress built in the 1300’s we can still breathe the air
of the middle ages.
The house has been constructed as part of an ancient medieval tower
– also built in the 1300’s – which rises above the city walls. The
house has been completely restored. Yet the tile floors and
traditional beamed ceilings create an atmosphere which transports
you directly into the experience of residing in the heart of a
true Tuscan home.
the house
The house has a kitchen with a breakfast area, two large bedrooms
with double beds (one of which has a private bathroom), sittingroom
with a sofa-bed, artist studio and terrace with arches that frame an
unforgettable view of the Metallifere hills. From every
window you have the opportunity to admire the beauty of the
countryside. There is a small garden (home to two turtles)
which serves as a perfect location to relax and take in the
surrounds.
In this peaceful and beautiful village of close to 1,000 residents,
the timeless sense of a true Italian experience still exists. With
small streets that curve throughout, some of which are too small for
cars to travel, you have the opportunity to spend time in a locale
that can quickly become "yours."
The village has three restaurants which are all particularly
wonderful and all different:
Il Nazionale is the place to go for a "buon pasta" of
pappardelle with ragu’.
La Pergola serves – along with wonderful pizza – the most
beautiful views of Radicondoli
I Granaio (the granary) offers an unique mix of Tuscan/Sardenginan
cuisine.
