The house

Check availabilityAll photos

This is the smaller half of the old stone barn. You step in under a brick vault, between the wooden shutters, straight into the kitchen, and from there out into the garden.

The bedroom has a double bed; in the living room a sofa bed sleeps a third guest.

The garden lies against the old stone wall, with a parasol, deck chairs and a barbecue. Guests who bring their dog tell us it can run free here.

What guests say

We were enchanted by our stay in Sambuca! […] The house, surrounded by greenery and looked after with great attention to detail, was a real “haven of relaxation”.
Alessandra, April 2025 · translated from Italian
We spent three wonderful days at Vanessa's house. […] We will definitely come back to stay with Vanessa the next time we are in the area.
Elisa, May 2025 · translated from Italian
A lovely place with lots of room for our dog, who felt right at home. […] I highly recommend it if you want a quiet corner near Florence and you travel with a four-legged friend.

The same barn as Splendido giardino nel Chianti: the two homes are side by side. About 21 metres (69 ft) long.
