Vacation Rental in the Chianti Hills of Tuscany
We've just returned from a relaxing stay in the Chianti Hills of Tuscany at Le Torri Villa Holiday Vacation Rentals. Le Torri Villa offers self-catering apartments in a beautifully restored medieval farm house with a Mediterranean garden and swimming pool.
Le Torri is in a picturesque setting on a hill, a short walk from a small town with a bar and food shops. A short distance in the other direction is the Poppiano Castle where wine and olive oil is made and sold. Poppiano Castle is a stop on Tuscany Bike Tours, one day bike tours from Florence.
Besides being a great place to relax and visit small wineries, Le Torri is convenient to many top Tuscany destinations - Florence, San Gimignano, Certaldo, and the Chianti Classico Wine Region are all within 30 km while Siena and Pisa are within 60 km.
Gabriele, who speaks English and grew up in the area, is available to advise with plans. He's friendly and enthusiastic and does everything he can to help guests enjoy their stay. On Saturday nights, guests are welcomed with a delicious buffet of typical Tuscan foods and wine prepared by his mother - a great start to a pleasant week.

Excellent!, You have also done the Chianti Landscape trek and above all with Tuscany-Biketours.com. The guys (Keith and Andy) most certainly made it a point of us all having a fantastic time.
This tour is highly recommended even on Tripadvisor and is worth taking a look at. Their website can be found here:

No, I didn’t take the bike tour. I met Keith at Poppiano Castle when he was with one of his tour groups. We toured the castle with his group.
