Tuscany is known throughout the world for its stunning countryside, beautiful cities and delicious cuisine. This farmhouse allows guests to enjoy all of it. Set in the hills of Crete Senesi, halfway between Siena (40 minutes), famous for its Il Campo square, where the Palio horse race takes place every July and August, and Pienza (45 minutes), which is well worth a visit for its Renaissance palaces, as well as its famous Pecorino cheese.

Wine lovers should not miss the town of Montalcino (40 minutes) where you can taste and buy the famous Brunello di Montalcino wine directly from the producers.

For pure relaxation visit the thermal springs at Rapolano Terme and indulge in a day of spa treatments.
