The village has a medieval origin, but it took its current shape in the seventeenth century, when the Sienese Tolomei family of bankers built the master’s villa with the chapel and enlarged the village.
The buildings have recently been restored and now you can enjoy a relaxing stay here, surrounded by the splendid landscape of the Crete Senesi, by the art and history of this unforgettable corner of Tuscany and by the oeno-gastronomic delights of this region, among which the white truffle stands out.
The master’s villa is surrounded by a large exclusive park with gazebo, and is furnished with late 19th-early 20th century pieces.
All the kitchens in the apartments and in the villa are equipped with cookers, oven, dishwasher, fridge and freezer.
The villa has a private entrance to the exclusive park with high-growing trees that surrounds it, where there is also the pool, equipped with tables, chairs, deck-chairs and sunshades.
Holy Mass is celebrated in the chapel facing the villa every Sunday at 11:15 a.m., by friars from the nearby Monte Oliveto Maggiore Abbey.
Every apartment, furnished in style, has an independent entrance and a private shaded external space or terrace, equipped with tables and chairs for eating "al fresco."
