Porciglia Alta, Greve in Chianti - Florence et le Chianti

Traduire avec Google?

Sehr schönes Anwesen, ruhig gelegen. Sehr freundlicher Vermieter, der sich sofort um alles kümmert. Der Pool wurde alle 2-3 Tage gereinigt.
Der Weg zum Haus ist allerdings eine tägliche Herausforderung. Nicht zu empfehlen mit höheren Autos (z.B. VW Bus o.ä.), teilweise hängen einige Äste sehr tief und können Kratzer am Lack verursachen.
Ansonsten sehr zu empfehlen!

We had such a wonderful week mid May at Villa Porciglia Alta. I have to say that the villa truly exceeded all our expectations. Location nearby the town Greve in Chianti was ideal. About 3 kilometers, 5-10 min by car. Our host Francesco could not make anything more to make us feel welcome. He was not in a hurry when he first walked us around the residence and told about the history of area and villa itself. He even served us ice cold welcome wines.

The pictures of the villa don't quite do justice to how stunning the setting was. Pool was spacious, clean and the warmth was ideal for hot days. My personal favourite was a room with a sound system, turntable and a large selection of classic records from the past. Here we played cards and listened to music in the evenings.

We cooked alot in the evenings and at the large dining table, it was nice to enjoy the company. For preparing food for a large group the kitchen could have had one larger frying pan, but we managed well with the equipments we had. Our host surprised us one day and brought us two complimentary bottles of red wine from his farm. That Chianti classico styled wine was absolutely delicious and many of us bought a bottle or two to take home.

The bedrooms were spacious, but there were differences in the level of furnishing. But that didn't bother anyone. We slept well and the rooms were nice and cool after a hot day.

I definitely recommend you to choose this villa. There is a good chance that we will return here in the coming years!

We really liked all the small villages quite close by. During your trip,it's worth finding out which villages have market festivals. We bought fresh vegetables and some Italian linen clothes. In our own village, Greve in Chianti, it is worth visiting the gelateria and the 'wine museum' downstairs basement. It is an easy and fairly inexpensive way to taste a variety of wines. These are located right next to the Coop market. There is also a parking garage for those arriving by car.

Porciglia Alta exceeded all our expectations, the villa and it's mature grounds were simply stunning, the place was bursting with character and history. There were so many beautiful spots both inside and outside to sit and enjoy a meal or a drink or a quiet moment, the Tuscan lanscape was truely breath taking.
Our host Francesco was abosolutely charming and so very helpful, he went above and beyond when he rescued some of our party due to a "mechanical" with the car, he also very kindly supplied us with Chianti from his own vineyard and olive oil from his own olive groves !
We will definately return again to this little bit of Tuscan paradise !

Ristorante Oltre Il Giardino in Panzano - is aboslutely essential, you will never sit in a restaurant with better views !

Wunderschönes Haus, traumhafte Lage, sehr netter und jederzeit erreichbarer, bemühter und hundeliebender Vermieter, aber es müsste dringend viel erneuert werden ( z.B. Holzterrasse, Toiletten, Bäder, Geschirr….)

Essen bei Idesio in Castello di Montefioralle - ein Erlebnis ( aber viel Zeit und Muße mitbringen)

Porciglia Alta did not disappoint; the villa was an abundance of character and truly a beautiful place to call home for a week! The garden and courtyard offered many options to enjoy your morning coffee, pre-dinner cocktails or simply admire the breathtaking Tuscan landscape! The villas' kitchen was very well equipped to enjoy cooking with the delicious local produce sourced in the neighboring towns and villages. The manager was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and even provided some tasty homegrown tomatoes and shallots for us to use! We very much look forward to a future visit to Porciglia Alta!
