Thirty-five minutes southeast of Siena in a rural corner of Tuscany, this 13th-century stone manor house, built as a resting place for pilgrims en route to Rome, is now a lavish 20-room hotel. A cypress-lined lane leads across the 200-acre gated estate comprising vineyards, apiaries, an artisan cheese-making facility and nearly 13 acres of lush gardens. Dramatic interiors feature pine floors, beamed ceilings, fireplaces, fine antiques and velvet-draped windows. Breakfast is served in a large, warm country kitchen, while lunch and dinner are offered in the indoor-outdoor Michelin one-star Meo Modo restaurant overseen by Andrea Mattei. Amenities include a free-form outdoor pool, a music room and library, a small spa employing the hotel’s own custom-made Seed to Skin beauty products, a cooking school and tennis, bocce and basketball courts.
Mediterranean day cruises aboard the hotel’s custom-designed 136-foot wooden schooner can be arranged.
