The Farm Holidays Santa Francesca is situated in the UNESCO Nature and Cultural Park of Val d’Orcia in Tuscany.
The farm was restaured according to the tradition, with cotto floors, wooden beams and dyed plasterwork.
The old stalls have now become a large living-room with a fireplace: an ideal place for meetings.
In the garden a panoramic swimming pool and a Jacuzzi with warm water will make your stay more confortable.
The farm is made of four flats furnished with rural fornitures typical of the Tuscan tradition.
The flats were obtained from four different parts of the house: the old house, the lemon trees storeroom, the barn and the old tool shed.
Organic Farming Santa Francesca
Paola and Franco Guerri and their three children Francesca, Michele and Maria are glad to invite you to their organic farming.
At the beginning of the last century the farm was run by Giuseppe and Novilia, Franco’s grandparents, and by their children and it is still a family businness.
It is made of 50 hectars where we grow wheat, barley, oat, sunflowers and clover.
We also have fruit trees and 350 olive trees.
All our products are cultivated according to the rules of organic farming: an important choice for us, because it allows us to work our land in rispect of its ecosystem.
In order to share with you the beauty and the calm of this part of the Tuscan countryside, we restaured the old farm house obtaining four flats with panoramic swimming pool.
Concerning the cultivation, we have many projects that we hope to realise as soon as possible.
We would like to bring back hemp growing, one of the main cultivation during the ‘50s, to rediscover its virtues and uses.
Moreover we would like to grow lavander, to reintroduce bee farming and to keep “micci amiatini”, a docile kind of donkey typical of this area.
We are waiting for you!
Agriturismo Podere San Michele
500 m far from the agriturismo Santa Francesca, you will find the Farm San Michele: a farmhouse finely restored and decorated.
It overlooks the Val d’Orcia and therefore Pienza, San Quirico and Castiglione d’Orcia and Montepulciano.
The farm is divided in two floors plus a store- and laundry room and it is about 120 sm.
The interiors were restaured with hand-made cotto floors, rural hardwood doors and chestnut beams.
The ground floor is made of a large living-room with a sofa, a table, a cosy fireplace plus cable TV and DVD player; a cooking corner with the hoven and a dishwasher will make your stay in Tuscany more confortable.
There is also a private bathroom with shower.
Upstairs there are three double rooms, furnished with iron decorated beds of the end of the XIX century.
The bathroom offers a confortable Jacuzzi for your relax moments.
Outside, under the pergola, you will find a table, chairs, parasols and a barbeque: the ideal place to have dinner while contemplating a colourful panorama.
Not to forget our panoramic swimming pool where you can relax.
What to do and how to do nothing...
You will have the chance just to relax, maybe in our open-air jacuzzi, discovering new sensations while contemplaiting the countryside with its brightness and multicoloured undertones which go from green to yellow, red and ochre....or you can read a book or swim in our swimming pool.
In the evening you can do a barbeque and have a candle-light dinner outside under the milky-way.
Your dinner will be perfect with the traditional wines of the area, like Brunello, Rosso di Montalcino or Orcia D.O.C.
You will discover the typical flavours and tastes of this part of Tuscany: our extra virgin olive oil “Terre di Siena D.O.P.” obtained by precious kinds of olives, our sunflowe |
