7 Bedroom House in Chianni
A hidden gem in the Tuscan rolling countryside, raised 350 metres above sea level, Le Polle di Meletro, also known as "Il borgo della pace" with its fantastic panoramic terrace, woodlands and enviable position, resides near the small medieval village of Rivalto. With stunning views down the Valdera valley, the prominent location of the villa has maintained a sense of timelessness, peace and tranquillity. It is an oasis of calmness and harmony in which to indulge yourself and relax, but yet it is only 40 minutes' drive from Pisa airport.The villa is surrounded by fertile soil that produces a range of superior vegetables, fruits and wine. The nearby fields are host to vineyards, olive groves, fruit trees and cereals, whilst the wooded hills are home to the famous 'Rivalto' Chestnut along with a rich selection of flora and fauna. The nodding heads of large sunflowers fill some of the fields in July/August setting the landscape ablaze. The view from our terrace and woodland changes as the seasons change, being green and lush in spring through to a golden yellow in summer before becoming a sea of blazing red as the vines change colour in the autumn months.
Each apartment has its own private space with a table, chairs, umbrella and a BBQ. A large terrace surrounds the swimming pool which is for guests only. A sauna is located near to the house for guests to use. There is a wood burning Pizza oven that guests can use along with a dog agility park. The house is set in 17 acres of parkland, so woodland walks or bike rides are a popular pass time.
