Location
Val d’Orcia fuses art, landscape and ecosystem in one geographical space. It is considered as the purest expression of a series of marvellous natural characteristics and testament to the people that have long inhabited it.
– The closest iconic locations are Pienza and Montepulciano, 55′ minutes away – Siena is 90′ away – Firenze is 30′ after Siena – The closest walking path starts from the property, following the white gravel roads to Castello di Fighine.
Siena and Florence host many museums with masterpieces by the greatest artists of all time, from Leonardo da Vinci & Michelangelo, to Botticelli, Giotto and Donatello. Depending on your interests in history, art or sculpture – Tuscany has it all, spanning across time, styles and periods.
At the villa, you can unwind under the Tuscan sun right in your own pool or walk around your estate
Indulge your time by visiting local thermal baths and spas. The Medieval village of Bagno Vignoni is even built on thermal waters, and the town square is a pool fed by volcanically heated water that has its share of day spas that use the water.
The annual wine harvest begins in October and the cold stone olive oil press takes over in November – the countryside comes alive with festivals, feasts and celebrations.
With fresh ingredients available year-round in Italy, any time is ideal to bring in a private chef for lessons on how to cook authentic Italian food.
Cycling is a major attraction for corporate groups and an experience that won’t soon be forgotten. Experience the magic of flight, a bird’s eye view of Tuscany’s vineyards, olive groves and ancient townships; there’s nothing quite like flying in a hot air balloon over the Tuscan hills.
