Nestled in a sea of pea-green pastures, historic olive groves, and undulating hills, this home exudes Tuscan tranquillity. You'll find it in the little village of Brenna, just a forty-minute drive from Siena. Sitting on the first floor of an old honey-hued building, it impressed us with its exquisite interiors and awe-inspiring views. The interior combines rustic charm with contemporary comforts and, in true Tuscan style, is cloaked in a calming veil of warm earthy tones and natural textures. Step inside and discover a light-filled canvas of exposed brick walls, terracotta-tiled floors and lofty ceilings adorned with striking timber beams. We love the open-plan living area, a free-flowing space primed for relaxation with ample seating, a delightfully-equipped country kitchen and a majestic stone fireplace. Down the hall, three sumptuous sleeping quarters promise restful slumbers and, through timber-framed windows, postcard-worthy views of your glorious surroundings. Outside, the peaceful shared courtyard, furnished with dining furniture and a hot tub, beckons you to unwind in the sun. Enjoy an alfresco breakfast here before a day of adventure. Take a stroll through the town, enjoy a morning swim in the Merse River, or hike through the wooded Alto Merse Nature Reserve, just twenty minutes away on foot.

About Siena
The sound of hooves clattering along stone paths, flags flying the crests of ancient contrade, and fierce rivalries that date back hundreds of years – visit Siena during Il Palio to experience one of Italy’s most chaotic yet atmospheric traditions. The Piazza del Campo, where the race ends, is also the focal point of the city – a vast, fan-shaped square towards which everything seems to lead. Around the piazza...
