LOCATION: FATTORIA DEL COLLE
Fattoria del Colle was built in 1592 by the ancestors of the current owner and resembles a small village that has miraculously remained intact over the centuries. Around the villa and the chapel there are the houses of the ancient farmers transformed into rooms and apartments for tourists (antique furniture and WiFi), there is also the cellar, the restaurant and the banquet hall, the cooking school and the area for natural well-being where you can regenerate with massages and bathing in wine. Around there are 4 parks, more distant olive groves and vineyards that descend towards the wonderful panorama of the Val d’Orcia and the Crete Senesi.
2 and a half hours from Rome and Bologna, one hour from Florence and Perugia. 18 km from the A1 Valdichiana exit
