Description

Borgo Caprile is part of an old 1700 village, overlooking a green and wooded valley and no longer inhabited, where once lived the noble families to whom almost the entire Val di Chio estate belonged. In the nearby ruins you can still recognise the old mill and bakery that supplied the entire valley with bread.
In the villa you will find well-preserved architectural features that belonged to noble residences: high ceilings, large fireplaces adorned with friezes in the living rooms and bedrooms, and spacious rooms. Reading your favourite book in front of the ancient, enormous fireplace in the living room will certainly have a special flavour of times gone by.

Borgo Caprile, in order to maintain its architectural style, is furnished with period furniture and characteristic local antiques.
Around the house the green and panoramic area is equipped with garden furniture and completely fenced, perfect for your dog. Your chosen spot to share with friends or family, will be the terrace overlooking the valley, equipped with tables and chairs, and located next to the barbecue area. It will be the best place to enjoy your lunches and dinners in the open air. The solarium and panoramic swimming pool area below is reachable via some stone steps (size 5x10 m, depth 0.90-2.30 m - open from 01st May to 30th September).

Only 6 km away is the village of Castiglion Fiorentino with its characteristic historical centre made of old buildings, narrow streets and small squares and equipped with shops, supermarkets and typical restaurants.
If you like walking, you can reach a restaurant and a small grocery shop in the small hamlet of Santa Cristina on foot, after a 2 km walk through the vineyards. Even your small size four-legged friends are welcome here.

    A magic stay

    We stayed at the Ancient stone hamlet, BORGO CAPRILE at the end of September-Oct 2. Our stay here was one of the best parts of our Italian vacation. We loved the house. It is spacious, comfortable and beautiful. We cooked all our evening meals there as the kitchen had everything we needed. We also cooked on the wood grill which was lovely. We ate breakfast and dinner beside the pool every day and enjoyed the full moon on the patio area each night. Christina was a wonderful host being very accessible and she immediately provided us with the couple of things we needed. We could not have imagined a better place to stay in Tuscany as we explored the countryside. Heaven did feel a tad closer as we looked out over the vineyards and olive groves, and celebrated being in this charming, ancient stone hamlet.

The optional experiences that were offered were exceptionally well organized, adding a special touch to our trip. Overall, our holiday was made truly memorable by the fantastic accommodations and the seamless arrangements. We all felt absolutely wonderful during our stay. Thank you for providing such a fantastic experience!
