Hotel description
The Tenuta Di Ricavo is as intertwined with Tuscany as the slender cypress trees which make this ancient landscape in central Italy so instantly recognizable. The former stately home is set in a centuries-old estate in Castellina in Chianti and, together with its adjacent buildings, has been a family-run country house hotel for over 50 years.
The old stone buildings exude a wonderful medieval charm. Inside, they fascinate with their stately feel: polished marble floors and whitewashed walls adorned with valuable paintings. Ornate chandeliers hang from the ceilings, and antique beds, wardrobes and chairs from different eras make you feel positively regal. The attentive team at this 4 star hotel make sure that guests are treated like kings and queens too.
The grounds include an extensive garden that blossoms with flowers right up until fall, several sun terraces, two outdoor pools, a gym and the Piazzetta, where breakfast is served during the warmer months. Tuscan cuisine is served in the restaurant La Pecora Nera, accompanied by local Chianti wines, of course!
With their skillfully carved or wrought-iron double beds, antique dressers and chairs, the rooms are just as grand as the rest of the house. Oriental rugs and rustic beamed ceilings promise a homely feel, while fully equipped bathrooms, satellite TV and central heating ensure a comfortable stay.
