Villa Gerlino is a ten bedroom villa situated in a charming position high
in the Chianti Hills, between the provinces of
Florence and Siena just outside the picturesque village of Ambra.
This splendid, lushly furnished villa is rich in history. In the 13th century a small Romanesque Parrish was built on the present grounds of the villa, the surrounding territory having been the site of violent battles between the Siena and Florence Republics – with the latter emerging as the victor. The small Parrish also was the cause for fighting between the Siena and Arezzo Archdioceses and a stone column indicating the boundaries between the two warring churches still remains. Through the years the parish was demolished and in its place, during the 13th Century, the framework for this spectacular villa in the rich vineyards of the Tuscan hills was constructed. Villa Gerlino was restored to its magnificence in 2001.
