La Pensione di Vignamaggio

About 9 kilometres from Vignamaggio, in the town square of Panzano in Chianti, we find Villa Sangiovese. This historical estate, dating back to the 1500s, embraces a magnificent courtyard with a view of the gardens and olive groves surrounding the town. The interior is decorated in the simple, linear style typical of the Tuscan countryside. The rooms are characterised by local antique furniture, showcased in the traditional setting of exposed ceiling beams and clay floor tiles. Villa Sangiovese has 19 en-suite rooms and is ideal for couples and young families. Its position in Panzano makes it a perfect base for anyone wanting to explore the Chianti region. THE GARDENS AND OLIVE GROVES The gardens at Villa Sangiovese surround the internal courtyard, where breakfast is served in the mornings. Follow a stone path through the garden, among rosemary shrubs, roses bushes and jasmine, to the olive grove. Here your gaze may wander off towards the hills. In amongst these Chianti hills, youll notice the Vignamaggio and Vitigliano villas dominating the valley. RELAXATION As you venture through the terraces that make up the garden, you will soon discover Hotel Sangioveses private swimming pool, where you can have a swim or relax in the sun. The pool area is a quiet and peaceful oasis immersed in greenery and with a panoramic view of the hills.
