Surroundings

In the heart of Tuscany, amidst hills, vineyards, and timeless villages, every place tells a story of art, nature, and tradition. From the landscapes of the Elsa Valley to the cities of art, the surrounding area offers authentic experiences to be enjoyed day after day.

Split between history and modernity, Colle di Val d'Elsa surprises with its hilltop village and views of the valley. An authentic place, less touristy, but full of charm.

We are nestled in one of the most fascinating corridors of medieval Tuscany, along the Via Francigena, the ancient pilgrims' route that passes through hills, villages, and landscapes that have remained intact over time. Just a short distance from us are Certaldo, with its red-brick historic center that seems suspended in the Middle Ages, and Colle di Val d'Elsa, a city of art and crystal perched on a rocky spur. For those who enjoy walking or cycling, the Sentiero sull'Elsa offers a nature trail along the river, through woods, mills, and glimpses of the Tuscan countryside: all the information can be found at sentierelsa.it .
