Accommodation
Step back in time into a beautifully preserved medieval eleventh century village centred around a lively piazza, just twenty minutes from Siena and ensconced in quintessential Tuscan scenery. Dotted throughout the village are rooms and suites reflecting an elegant and rustic style whilst offering every modern amenity, as well as an independent villa complete with private chef and butler upon request. The lure of the location is matched by that of the cuisine - Gordon Ramsay overseeing the menus - whilst in the property’s wine cellar lies La Cantina, serving typical Tuscan fare. There are three swimming pools, a tennis court, cookery classes and nearby horse riding; relax in the spa with treatments, sauna and hammam.
Italy is a year round destination especially for city breaks, with a largely temperate climate with regional variations. Summers are hot especially from Rome southwards, whilst spring and autumn are mild. Winter in the south is warmer and drier than in the northern and central areas which can be much colder with snow fall in the mountainous regions.
