Il Colombaio di Cencio  

In the rolling hills of Gaiole in Chianti, this pet-friendly farm stay sits in a rural pocket of Tuscany near Castle of Brolio and Cantalici Winery. A short drive brings you to Church of San Sigismondo, and Siena’s Piazza del Campo is about 15 miles away.

Six guestrooms blend rustic charm with modern comforts—expect fireplaces, private pools, and private balconies or patios. Rooms also include desks, coffee/tea makers, satellite TV and limited housekeeping.

Take a dip in the seasonal outdoor pool, relax on the terrace or in the garden, and use the picnic and barbecue areas for alfresco meals; pets are welcome. Concierge services, complimentary wireless internet and free self-parking keep things easy.

Express check-in and check-out, dry cleaning/laundry, luggage storage and free self-parking are available, with complimentary wireless internet to keep you connected.

Grab a spot at the on-site picnic or barbecue area, then explore nearby wineries like Castle of Brolio, Cantalici and San Felice to sample classic Chianti wines and Tuscan flavors.
