As the sun-soaked hills awaken to the golden light of summer, Villa Ardore invites discerning travellers to experience the magic of Tuscany in its most vibrant season. The 500-year-old restored farmhouse, which is now a luxurious private estate, blends rich history with refined modern elegance. This summer, the private property opens its doors for guests to indulge in curated experiences that celebrate the essence of Italian living.

Located in the heart of the renowned Chianti Classico wine region, Villa Ardore is more than a destination; it is an invitation to live the Tuscan dream. From strolling through sun-drenched vineyards and savouring alfresco meals under centuries-old olive trees, to connecting with local artists and artisans in their private studios, every moment at Villa Ardore is designed to deepen your connection with the land, its people, and its stories.

Christian Scali and Stephen Lewis, two Tuscan visionaries, restored Villa Ardore with one goal: to create a sanctuary that celebrates authenticity, elegance, and the soul of Tuscany. “We wanted our guests to fall in love with this region the way we did,” the owners explain. “This summer, we are especially excited to invite guests behind the scenes – to visit the very artists whose work fills the villa, and to experience the rhythm of local life in a truly meaningful way.”
