Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of the Crete Senesi, in the enchanting upland of Le Chiarne near Asciano, Italy, Villa Le Chiarne is a magnificent vacation rental born from the meticulous restoration of a 19th-century farmhouse. This exclusive retreat has been transformed into a refined haven of relaxation and well-being, where the grandeur of the original structure meets elegant contemporary comfort.

For our guests we organize a rich programme of initiatives discovering the colours and flavours of the Crete, wine tasting in our cosy winery and excursions by bike guided by Alessandro who is fond of cycling.
