Graziosa Villa

Location

Ideally situated within walking distance to the historic town of San Casciano dei Bagni where there are several excellent restaurants, boutiques, bakery, the famous and elegant Fonteverde spas and a weekly farmer's market. Sit in the main piazza and enjoy a glass of wine or a gelato for a most relaxing and master the Italian art known as "la dolce far niente", the sweetness of doing nothing. Gaze out over the valley and drink in the stunning views of the scenic Val d'Orcia, about 10 miles away, a UNESCO world heritage site.

This beautiful area of Tuscany is one of the most sought after due to its beautiful vistas and easy driving distance from both Rome or Florence, about 2 hours in either directly. It's an excellent home base for exploring all the the region has to offer, sightseeing in Siena, exploring the many scenic hill towns and wineries in the region.

The Graziosa villa is a restored farmhouse with homey touches where you can relax and be spoiled by the attentive owner/manager who lives elsewhere on the property, eager to ensure your stay is enjoyable but at enough of a distance to ensure you have full privacy during your stay. Enjoy lounging by your own private pool, or lounging in the comfortable living room or on the terrace or at the table for 8 under the shady pergola. The Graziosa villa is surrounded by gardens filled with oak, olive and fruit trees and dotted with wildflowers.
