Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany's Chianti region in San Casciano In Val Di Pesa, Italy, Casa Mattei is a breathtaking country house that offers an exceptional holiday rental experience for up to 14 guests. Perched on a hillside and surrounded by sweeping views over olive groves, vineyards, woods, and rolling country estates, this authentically restored medieval property spans 530 square meters and exudes timeless elegance. Originally built approximately one thousand years ago as a small monastery during the Medieval period, the building was fully restored in 2006 and has since evolved into a spacious and refined retreat perfectly suited for groups of 5 or 6 couples or extended families. The fenced estate extends across 2 hectares and includes the main house as well as a dependence of 40 square meters. Guests have access to a stunning 15 x 7.50 meter freshwater swimming pool complete with a Jacuzzi, available from May through September, offering a truly luxurious outdoor experience. High-speed Internet WiFi is available throughout the property, ensuring connectivity for all guests. Parking is conveniently provided on-site, and the private, tranquil setting of the estate ensures a peaceful and exclusive stay from arrival to departure.

A typically rustic dirt road stretching 1,200 meters winds through vineyards and olive groves, leading you to the estate and setting the tone for the authentic Tuscan experience that awaits. The fenced grounds are beautifully landscaped, with a well-maintained lawn bordered by rose bushes and mature olive trees that provide both shade and a sense of timeless charm. A stone patio equipped with a BBQ area offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining, featuring a long table that comfortably seats 12 guests along with comfortable chairs, all sheltered from the sun in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.
