This studio apartment in a stone barn conversion is a perfect blend of modern and antique design. We love the infinity pool (40 metres away) which overlooks the Val d'Orcia, offering breathtaking views. It’s surrounded by wild plants and shrubs that reflect the forested land beyond. The owner’s live in the main house with their two friendly dogs and they occasionally use the pool when the area is unattended by guests. The private furnished terrace and outdoor lounge area here is a lovely spot for a glass of wine. If you prefer to be a bit more active, there are endless trails and routes for walkers and bikers, while the pretty village of Gaiole is 11 kilometres away.

About Siena Province
Step back into medieval Italy with a trip to Siena. The city is famous for its contrade, the maze-like historic districts that haven’t changed a beat in over a hundred years. Join the crowds in July and August when Siena’s famous Palio horserace thunders around the Piazza del Campo, or visit outside of the peak summer months for a calmer experience. Siena, rich in tradition, is also a great spot...
