Luxury converted barn with hilltop views in chianti wine region, Tuscany

The Barn at Bagnaie is a luxury 3-bedroom Tuscan villa, which we have modernised and furnished to a high standard.
The interior mixes traditional materials with Italian modern design. The large living room features an open log fireplace, original terracotta tiles and wooden doors leading out onto the south terrace and gardens. There is a separate kitchen/dining area fitted with marble worktops and equiped with all the utensils a serious food lover needs to be able to enjoy local market produce and Le Bagnaie's kitchen garden. There are also double doors from the kitchen leading out to the terrace and the vine-covered pergola.
Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms which all have their own private ensuite bathrooms. These have all been fitted with Italian marble tiles and powerful rain head showers. All the bedrooms have wonderful views out over the beautiful hills and vines surrounding the house.
The villa's private landscaped garden - rich with cherry, pomegranate and fig trees and with a built-in BBQ - surrounds the property and enjoys 360-degree views of the countryside, including the distant Duomo of Siena to the south and the towers of San Gimignano to the west.
Our villa sits in the small hamlet of Bagnaie, where we share our hilltop with 7 other houses. We have a full time gardener who maintains the extensive gardens and grounds as well as the shared 20m pool, which is solar heated. There is also a tennis court can be used all year round and a boules pitch. We have a swing and play area for kids on the site.
Well behaved pets are welcome.
We have a local property manager (English and Italian speaking) who will be available during your stay to assist you where necessary.
We can arrange for our local cook, Serena to come and make you an authentic home cooked meal at the house. She will cook using local and seasonal produce, often from our kitchen garden or her own garden from the nearby village. She will conjure up a 4-5 course meal for you while you can sit on the terrace and watch the sun set or enjoy a candle lit meal under the stars. She will serve you dinner and do all the washing up as well!

WOW, Quintessential Tuscany!
I wish we could have stayed longer; such a beautiful location. The villa was very nice and comfortable. We enjoyed meals prepared by Serena twice during our visit; she cooked multi-course dinners that were delicious. Highly recommend the property and Serena’s cooking. We look forward to going back!

Great escape!
Comfortable home amid lovely gardens and spectacular views. It’s just as pictured. Loved being able to eat straight from the garden or be pampered by Serema’s excellent cooking. I wanted to bring the estate kitty, Gino, home with me but he’s already living his best life at this truly singular estate

Relaxing and scenic authentic Chianti experience
This is one of those conflicted reviews. I’d like to keep Le Bagnaie secret so we can book in future but I can’t resist posting about the experience. I can’t fault anything about the stay. The check in instructions were easy, property is well appointed and spotless, spectacular views, great pool and beautiful district. We drove around the surrounding towns and wineries. The meal from Serena was a real highlight. We didn’t want to leave

Absolute perfection!
Everything about our stay was perfect - the house was absolutely incredible and the view was unmatched. Serena was the best part of our stay. Her food was incredible and she was a joy to have around. The best dining experience we had in all of Tuscany! We will definitely be referring all of our friends to this home and hope to come back many more times ourselves.

Tuscan getaway
I stayed at the Barn with my elderly parents, my sister, my husband, and our 7-year-old son. The property accommodated all of us beautifully (although if there is more than one couple in your group you'll need to negotiate about who gets the lovely master bedroom!). Note that all bedrooms and bathrooms are located upstairs. The entire property is peaceful and serene, with gorgeous views of the countryside and surrounding vineyards. It wasn't quite warm enough for pool use during our stay, but this would be quite an asset during the summer months. We booked Serena for a dinner, which I highly recommend! She was professional, friendly, and efficient, and her food was delicious. Property manager Jacky checked in on us and had some great suggestions for local day trips. Overall, I recommend this property.

Best Location and stunning VIEW
The stay at the Bagnaie was perfect. The location is the best for visiting the surrounding area. This is our third trip to Tuscany and we enjoyed this place the best. The pictures online does not do the views justice. Dinner on the patio area overlooking Tuscany at sunset is amazing. Book Serena to prepare meals for you. JUST DO IT! She is wonderful to come back to after a long day of touring and eat her delicious cuisine and watch the Tuscan sun slowly set from the patio. Perfection. The owner answered all my questions so quickly. We had an excellent week in Tuscany. It just went by too fast.

Beautiful location, great home
I spent 6 days in October in the Barn, along with my husband and two other couples (ages 50 -72). The house itself was perfect for us. We did lots of cooking in the fully equipped kitchen, and used the wood BBQ outside most days as well. Serena cooked a meal for us and it was amazing. The living room also had ample room, and we used the wood fireplace a couple of nights, which was lovely in October. The house has 3 bedrooms, each with an ensuite, which was important for us and not easy to find. All the beds and baths are upstairs, which could be an issue for some travellers, but it worked for us. The views are spectacular! We planned to use the barn as a base to explore the area, but we ended up spending most of our time on the property because it was so lovely. We used the pool most days. The Barn is the closest home to the pool, but there were not many other guests in the other homes, so it was pretty quiet. That may not be the case in a busier season, but there is plenty of distance and trees between the pool and the Barn, so it is very private. The nearest town is about a 15 minute drive, so we did our grocery shopping there. We spent 2 weeks in 3 locations in Tuscany and this location and home was the best of them all. The house was clean, spacious, comfortable and had all the amenities one would need. We would love to come back and would surely recommend it!

We have stayed at The Barn at le Bagnaie four times and each vacation has been wonderful. The sunsets overlooking the vineyards are unforgettable. This visit was made even more special by the delicious meal prepared by Serena and served outside as the sun set. We can’t wait to return!

Perfect Tuscan escape
If you want to feel like you have come to Tuscany on a private estate, this is your place. It is a beautifully maintained private property with 7 villas and a gardener who keeps it pristine. The pool is huge. The Barn is the best house on the property I think because it is the one right next to the pool and it has the best views perched on the end of the hill. You cannot believe the views - the pictures are totally accurate. The house is so beautifully restored and preserved in original farmhouse style with bathrooms that have all been very comfortably updated with really nice stone. The water pressure is amazing too! Serena the private chef who is available to book not only makes great food but is also one of kindest people you will meet. I can’t wait to come back.

Wonderful Setting
We love Bagnaie. this is our second time in our second house. While all have been renovated, some of the kitchens are less updated than one would expect. Ours had screens and renovated bathrooms which is a huge plus. The doors on the first floor open up to the surrounds which is great for breezes and views. Did I mention the views. My goodness. they look over gorgeous vineyards with sunsets to die for. Corin's unit is near the pool which is great if you have kids. It also has a nice outdoor eating area. Overall, a great place to stay.

The Barn
Overall, a wonderful property in a spectacular location. We had a spectacular holiday. The property was well equipped but would have benefited from beer and Prosecco glasses and more plastic glasses to use around the pool. The Wi-Fi was sporadic and unreliable. The meals prepared by Serena were superb. We suffered a lot from mosquito bites and would have appreciated some guidance on how to handle them.

Our family of five had the BEST time here. The setting and views across the Tuscan hills are just breathtaking.

My wife and stayed at Le Bagnaie for part of our honeymoon and wanted something quiet and romantic. The barn and land are gorgeous and definitely off the beaten path. We made day trips to Montalcino, and Montepulciano with plenty of winery visits in between. Serena made us the best meal we’ve ever had. I cannot recommend her enough. We’d love to return some day!
