Restaurant opening April 2012
There on the top of a hill, at the heart of the "crete" of Siena and the Val d'Orcia you will discover a beautiful farm house offering accomodation to those who, looking for a change from a stereotype holiday, is longing to rediscover the taste of the past.
This is La Fonte, an estate in perfect harmony with its surrounding, near Pienza the city where the Tuscan renaissance was brought to the top. The farm house dates from that period, and offers hospitality in four marvellous appartments where you can enjoy a holiday out of time.
Housing
The square stone building dates back to the 15th century.
Renovated in observance of traditional country style architecture, with the beautiful stones in full view, it is divided into 4 suites, with 2 or 4 sleeping places respectively, endowed with the most comfortable services, independent heating, TV, table ware, table and bed linen, capable of making the sojourn of our guests pleasant and relaxing.
In the spacious green garden there is a lighted swimming pool, where you can spend unforgettable moments night and day. Bird songs will accompany you on your walks along country paths or will lull you into dozing on long summer afternoon rests.
