Montestigliano

Montestigliano is a Tuscan hilltop hamlet of beautiful burnt orange farm houses, dating back to 1783. A 20 minute drive (12km) from Siena and a 1 hour 15 minute drive (80km) from Florence, Montestigliano is fully immersed in the classic rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside. It is a great place to unwind in the comfort of self-contained villas, each with a fully equipped kitchen and independent entrance. In the warmer months, step out onto your own private patio to enjoy a glass of wine in the beautiful evening summer light, surrounded by breathtaking Tuscan landscapes. Each villa has been renovated to provide all modern comforts whilst maintaining the building’s original design, making for a truly unique and memorable Tuscan experience.

At Montestigliano, we are keen to respect and protect the land we live on. We have found a wonderful balance between new and old, between tradition and innovation. We have built our own solar panels for energy, use our own water purifying system and are working on developing new eco-friendly, sustainable projects, such as our most recent biogas plant for renewable energy and a vegetable plot to provide our restaurant with fresh, organic produce. For us, this is a dream come true!

Agriturismo Il Sasso di San Galgano

The Il Sasso di San Galgano farmhouse was born from the desire to give life to something that the “old” have given us, a farmhouse nestled in the splendid Val di Merse, (between Chiusdino and San Galgano) an area rich in natural, historical and Tuscan traditions.

The name derives from the story of San Galgano, a medieval knight who chose the life of a hermit, refusing war, and right where the farmhouse stands, the horse knelt on a stone leaving the imprints of his knees.

Thanks to its position it is possible to reach Siena, the sea of the Tuscan Maremma and Florence.
Agricultural activity is carried out on 60 hectares of land in which woods and arable land alternate.

The agritourism offers an ideal holiday for those who want to immerse themselves in traditions, colors and a family atmosphere.
