Rosenzia

To the nature lover, the Val d'Orcia offers peaceful sceneries scattered with golden wheat and sunflowers fields that spread as far as the eye can see. Thanks to the geographical position with the treasures of Umbria to the east, and those of Northern Lazio to the south, this area of Tuscany is a great attraction for thousands of tourists who every year enjoy its unspoiled beauty. Val d'Orcia, which in 2004 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an area ideal for a holiday enriched with plenty of history, good food, art and nature. Nestled in this paradise, Villa Rosenzia looks like a precious gem set in the Tuscan jewel.

The impressive views of Val d'Orcia, which inspired so many Renaissance painters, is dotted with little villages, castles, abbeys and hamlets, each telling a fascinating ancient story. Time here can still pass slowly and you can enjoy every second of it.

Visit the famous town of Montalcino, best-known for the distinguished Brunello red wine, and the artistic jewel town of Pienza, which was used as a backdrop to Franco Zeffirelli’s masterpiece: “Romeo and Juliet”. The walled hilltop medieval town of Montepulciano, the picturesque Cetona, the charming thermal villages of San Casciano dei Bagni and Bagno Vignoni are also well worth a visit.

To explore Florence on a day trip, the best way is to leave your car at the Chiusi-Chianciano train station and hop on one of the many trains to Florence - Santa Maria Novella Station (they run every hour and in less than two hours you are in Florence’s historical center).
