In more detail

Though the property has almost three centuries of generational history with the Papi family, each of its rooms and suites have been lovingly restored down to the finest of details, with a notable focus of luxury and wellness. Many elements of the furnishings have been sensitively preserved to maintain its traditional and authentic values. Whether its the spacious deluxe room with their exposed wooden beams and terracotta floors or the exclusive spa suites complete with a private in-room spa, luxury hot tub and private garden, all 16 rooms and suites ooze Tuscan charm and modern opulence. 

The restaurant is located in what was the old cellar of the country residence. With characterful stone walls, timber roof and terracotta floor tiles, the setting is apt for experiencing sensational Tuscan specialties, both modern and traditional, complimented perhaps by one of Tuscany or Umbria's finest red wines from the hotel cellar. Chefs personally design and elegantly prepare all dishes, with the emphasis of quality and freshness high on the agenda. During the summer, the restaurant relocates beside the swimming pool, surrounded by an expansive park full of flowers and pines, from which you can enjoy the quiet and magical atmosphere of the Tuscan countryside.

At the centre of the hotel's grounds sits a beautiful swimming pool alongside the elegant lounge bar. Here, guests can immerse themselves in the serenity of the gardens whilst sipping delicious hand-made cocktails, admiring views of the surrounding hills and gardens. What's more, you're perfectly located within easy reach of the Tuscan gems of Montepulciano, Pienza and Siena.
