“An intimate wine retreat tucked into Tuscany’s Chianti Classico region. Rooms boast pastel hues and artisan-crafted furniture blending old-world charm with modern elegance. Guests can indulge in organic wines, dine al fresco, and unwind at the private spa or panoramic pool. An idyllic escape.”

Hotel review

Castello La Leccia Wine Retreat offers an enchanting escape with panoramic views that stretch from the towers of Siena to the peaks of the Apuan Alps.

The Deluxe Room is a guest favourite with its private terrace offering privacy and stunning views.

The restaurant uses seasonal local ingrediants to wow guests, try the spaghetti seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and chilli topped with sea bass. It's the simple things !

Make the most of the location in the heart of Tuscany's Chianti Classico region and sample the organic Chianti Classicos and the velvety 'Giuliano' Riserva at the in-house restaurant.

Castello La Leccia

You can drink in the heady views (and heady wines) at this handsome Chianti castle, complete with organic farm, winery and Italian gardens. Its 12 rooms offer an intimate, family atmosphere and many of the comforts of a swish hotel.
