The area surrounding the property is rich in charm, history, and unique landscapes, offering endless opportunities for discovery.
From evocative medieval abbeys to thermal villages immersed in nature, as well as the rolling hills of Chianti and picturesque Tuscan towns, every experience provides authentic emotions.
The strategic location also allows easy access to art cities, nature trails, and food and wine itineraries, making every stay a perfect balance of relaxation, culture, and adventure.
Siena offers a stunningly colorful cathedral, as well as the sloping Piazza del Campo, home to the semiannual Palio horse race. We strongly recommend excursions to the beautiful abbeys in Tuscany: Cistercian San Galgano and the Hermitage of Monte Siepi with a legendary sword embedded in a stone; the 14th c Monte Uliveto Maggiore; and the Abbey of Sant'Antimo in a picture-perfect setting.
For spa lovers we suggest a visit to the hot springs at the Etruscan-era Bagno Vignoni with its historic pool located in the central square, as well as the ancient Roman thermal springs in the woods, Bagni di Petriolo, or the beautiful Bagni San Filippo with its imposing white limestone formation and surrounding nature trails.
Less than an hour's drive away are San Gimignano with its imposing towers (one of Tuscany’s several UNESCO World Heritage Sites), Sorano with two fortresses, and tiny Sovana (no steep steps!). A day jaunt to Florence, fabulously rich in Renaissance art and architecture, is a must. Visit Arezzo, a university town, which offers famed Tuscan beef, and tour the breathtaking Tuscan coast along the Tyrrhenian Sea (Punta Ala and Castiglione della Pescaia).
Particularly interesting position also for cyclists: Bosco della Spina is located in the land of the legendary route of L'Eroica, Grand Tour della Val di Merse, and Strade Bianche.
