Photos and Description of the Castellina in Chianti vacation farmhouse rental
4 & 2 bedrooms, 2 &1 bathrooms, sleping 8 & 4

POMONA is a traditional estate situated in the heart of the Chianti countryside, near the ancient city of Siena. The oldest buildings of the farm date back to the 1750s. The estate maintains its original structure and still comprises the residential villa, farmhouses, storehouses and the winery. This is what makes it fascinating even today – it conveys a real impression of a traditional Tuscan country estate, surrounded by gardens, olive groves and vineyards. In addition to producing wine and olive oil, the family now runs a small holiday business based in the old villa, following the principles of sustainability and eco-friendly solutions. The villa is surrounded on three sides by a large courtyard shaded by three century-old Lebanon cedars. Embedded in the orchards and gardens and surrounded by olive and fruit trees guest can enjoy a swimming pool offering spectacular views over the rolling hills. Two apartments with independent entrances are available for rent.

Pomona is a working farm that produces organic extra virgin olive oil and Chianti Classico wine which are available for tasting and purchase.

A beautiful real Tuscany house!

4 of 5
Submitted: August 15, 2011 Stayed: June 2011
We stayed in Villa Pomona for 1 week with 2 families. It was lovely! The owners are friendly and make you feel real welcome. The pool is perfect! The garden is more than beautiful. The wine and olive oil is delicious. The rooms are big and the furniture is rustique. Siena and other Tuscany highlights are in the area. We will hire this villa again!

Wonderful relaxing experience

5 of 5
Submitted: July 6, 2011 Stayed: June 2011
The owners / our hosts (Monica, Inga, and Enrico) were wonderful. They made sure our stay was comfortable and helped in any which way possible. My husband broke his wrist prior to arriving at Villa Pomona, and the owners escorted us to a nearby hospital and made sure he was able to get proper medical attention.

The farm has been in the family for centuries; and staying there would give you a totally Tuscan experience. It is a short distance from Siena, other Chianti attractions, and small cities with great sightseeing and eating places. Driving from Florence or other nearby cities would give you a good tour of the Chianti region.

The apartment is very old since it is part of the original winery, but it is clean, equipped with basic cooking and dining utensils, shared washer, and comfortable bedding. And if you need anything else, just ask the wonderful hosts! The pool is great for hot summer days to cool off before or after sightseeing.

If you are looking for a practical for a family with kids and less expensive place, this is ideal. Otherwise, if you are seeking somewhere luxurious and modern, look elsewhere.

A truly charming farmhouse in the heart of Chianti

5 of 5
Submitted: July 11, 2010 Stayed: June 2010
We've enjoyed every day staying there. The owners are truly amazing people, and have provided a very warm accommodation to us. The wine produced right there on the property is outstanding. The garden is even more beautiful than it looks on the photos. Having a car is a must, and a GPS is highly recommended. Great value and location, all the main landmarks of Tuscany are within about one hour or less of driving. Vaulted stone ceilings keep the lower level comfortably cool in the summer. We would highly recommend it to everyone, and wouldn't hesitate to come back again.

I come from Czech Republik and I was with my 12 friends in Villa Pomona in Italy. Villa is a very nice place to stay. Villa Pomona produce their own wine and olive oil, which is very tasty. Owners were very friendly. They have beutifull garden with big swimmingpool. I will recommend this place to everybody!! Go to see a paradise in Chianti.
btw.: There is lot of posibilities to visit old villages by car or on bike...
