Description
Galleria di Brolio is an old stone farmhouse whose origins date back to 1800, located between two of the most important towns of the Valdichiana, Castiglion Fiorentino and Foiano, and which is now part of the owners' farm. You will find the farmhouse just a few kilometres from the two towns and in both, as well as various monuments and sites of artistic interest that are definitely worth a visit, you will have shops, restaurants and all kinds of services. The small historic centres of the villages will be a pleasant destination for your aperitifs or dinners at the restaurant.
The farmhouse takes its name from the Galleria di Brolio, a conduit that is still in operation today and is located on the edge of the olive grove. The conduit is part of the canal built between 1932 and 1940 to improve the flow of water towards the Arno, planned by the engineer Vittorio Fossombroni for the reclamation of the valley at the end of the 18th century.
Galleria di Brolio is situated on the edge of a wood of about 20 hectares of oaks and pines used as a hunting reserve for the repopulation of animals; they live here in the utmost freedom and if you love wildlife you will frequently see hares and pheasants running in the olive grove, the vineyard and even in the house lawn.
On the ground floor there is the apartment where the owners live, as well as a cellar and a shed for the farm's agricultural tools, while the first floor is reserved for you. The furnishings are very nice and comfortable, enriched with local antiques, and blend in perfectly with the old features of the house. Not far away, on the other side of the wood, passes the railway line that connects central Italy with the main cities of the peninsula (Florence, Bologna, Rome, Milan), so it will be easy to move around even without a car.
A few metres from the house, surrounded by silver olive trees, you will find a beautiful swimming pool completely fenced and for your exclusive use (size 11x5 m, depth 1.10-1.40 m - open from 01st May to 30th September), together with a gazebo equipped with garden furniture, which will allow you to shelter from the hot summer sun.
There is also a large pergola supplied with wrought iron furniture for eating outside, equipped with a barbecue and a wood-burning oven, for those evenings when you want to enjoy a pizza or a grill “al fresco”.
The owner, on request, will prepare excellent typical Tuscan dinners and pizzas in the wood-fired oven which, we are told by customers who have stayed at the house, are truly delicious. Galleria di Brolio

Located just a few kilometers from the historic village of Montepulciano, in Italy, this magnificent stone farmhouse sits within a vast agricultural estate where some of the most prized grape varieties are cultivated, giving life to the prestigious Rosso and the celebrated Nobile di Montepulciano. The result of a careful restoration of an original rural stone structure, La Burraia masterfully blends rustic character with refined comfort, making it an ideal retreat for large groups seeking generous indoor and outdoor living spaces.

High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, ensuring connectivity for those who need it, while the surrounding landscape and cultural richness of the region invite complete immersion in the Tuscan way of life.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of La Burraia are as generous and varied as the landscape that surrounds them. The park extends across approximately one hectare within the fully fenced agricultural estate and is enriched by typical Tuscan olive trees and cypress vegetation, with cultivated fields and vineyards visible in the distance. The estate is separated from neighboring properties by natural plant barriers, ensuring a high degree of privacy. Access to the property is through a gate that opens onto a charming internal avenue of approximately 400 meters, leading to the dedicated parking area. Conveniently positioned near the kitchen exit, a stone barbecue and a shaded dining table beneath a pergola create an inviting space for outdoor meals and social gatherings. Several relaxation areas are distributed throughout the park, complemented by a bowling green that adds a recreational dimension to the outdoor experience. The non-heated swimming pool occupies a private position at the rear of the houses, approximately 20 meters away and reachable via a pleasant short walk.
