Fabulous property a short (but steep) walk from Gaiole town centre up a paved road
Fabulous property a short (but steep) walk from Gaiole town centre up a paved road. The owners, living nearby, were very welcoming and the views from the property were perfect Tuscany. We enjoyed use of the swimming pool and cooking in the property kitchen.

Sehr schöner Urlaub
Ein sehr schönes Objekt mit viel Charme und Charakter. Die Aussicht ist toll, der Pool ist groß, war sauber und gepflegt, ausreichend Liegen vorhanden. Großer Grill und eine schöne Terasse. Hier kann man seinen Urlaub genießen!!! Die Betten / Matratzen sind gut, aber leider nicht getrennt, so dass der Nachbar bei jeder Drehung mitschaukelt :-) Die Ausstattung der Küche ist ein bißchen in die Jahre gekommen (Geschirrspüler), hier könnte investiert werden. Ebenso ins Besteck, hier gibt es z.B. für jeden Gast genau eine Garnitur (Messer/Gabel/Löffel) und der Herd fordert etwas Geduld, aber ansonsten gut ausgestattet. Der Kontakt und der Empfang war freundlich, die mit im Haus wohnenden Eigentümer sind freundlich und selten zu sehen. Es gab sogar frisches Gemüse aus dem eigenen Garten zur Begrüßung. Der Weg von Gaiole in Chianti zum Objekt selbst ist ziemlich steil, schmal und kurvig, darauf sollte man vorbereitet sein. Zu Fuß ca. 10 - 15 Minuten, je nach Kondition auch etwas länger... Im Ort gibt es ein paar wenige, kleine Restaurants (am besten einen Tisch reservieren), eine Gelateria mit gutem Eis und einen kleinen Coop. Für den größeren Einkauf lieber bei Ausflügen an einem Lidl Halt machen. Ausflüge nach Sienna, San Gimigiano oder auch Pisa sind machbar, aber bei der Planung berücksichtigen, dass die Straßen in der Toskana teilweise sehr steil (bis zu 15% Steigung) und kurvig sind, daher mehr Zeit einplanen. Wir können dieses Objekt uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

Il Colombaio In Gaiole in Chianti was spectacular!
A big thank you to our hosts at II Colombaio -- especially Umberto who was so helpful! We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful villa! The two buildings worked out well to give everyone space. The view was spectacular and the town of Gaiole was a simple and lovely walk down the hill. We highly recommend this property and we hope to return!
