Description

Villa Penelope - San Casciano dei Bagni - Tuscany

9 Bedrooms – Outdoor and Indoor Pool – Gym – Sauna

Location and Surrounding Area. Immersed in the peaceful Tuscan countryside just outside the enchanting medieval village of San Casciano dei Bagni, this exclusive nine-bedroom property is ideally located to offer complete privacy to its guests and to explore the region’s cultural highlights and most spectacular natural wonders. Situated in the heart of the Val d’Orcia, Villa Penelope represents the perfect location for day trips to the most beautiful towns in Tuscany and provides a unique opportunity to admire its iconic landscapes while soaking up the region’s incredibly rich historical and cultural heritage.

Full of naturalistic wonders, artistic treasures and delicacies for the palate, Tuscany is also famous for its natural springs, whose waters, after having carved the rocks, flow above ground and create natural pools in which you can bathe and restore your psychophysical balance. Known for its millenary natural springs, San Casciano dei Bagni boasts a luxurious spa center enhanced by a flourishing natural setting, and is perfect for those who want to escape the ordinary through a relaxing holiday at the thermal spas. The villa is also a few kilometers from Chianciano Terme, one of the most renowned thermal bath towns in Europe, whose waters are popular for their therapeutic properties.

In just one hour by car, you can easily reach the medieval town of Montepulciano. Standing high atop a hill not far from Siena, the city boasts elegant Renaissance palaces, ancient churches, charming squares and breathtaking views over the wonderful Val d’Orcia. Montepulciano’s strategic position makes it a perfect base from which to explore this beautiful region: from here, you can reach the picturesque town of Pienza, also known as “the ideal city of the Renaissance”, and the walled medieval city of Montalcino, extremely well-known for the production of its precious Brunello red wine, one of the world’s best and most appreciated Italian wines.

In just an hour and a half’s drive, you can also reach Siena, Italy’s loveliest medieval town, whose heart is represented by the magnificent Piazza del Campo, scene of the lively Palio horse race, which is held twice a year in July and August. The Campo is dominated by the Palazzo Pubblico and its Torre del Mangia, from which it is possible to admire the view of the town. Effectively a giant, open-air museum celebrating the Gothic, Siena boasts spiritual and secular monuments that have retained both their medieval forms and their exceptional art collections, providing plenty to marvel at.

Villa Penelope is 157 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, 200 km from Rome Leonardo da Vinci International Airport and 224 km from Pisa Galileo Galilei International Airport.
