Villa Pianello is a Tuscan farmhouse that has been renovated by the owners using the classic materials with which farmhouses were built in the past: Barberino stone and river stone for the walls, terracotta for the thresholds and stairs, bricks for the barrel vaults, chestnut beams and hollow tiles for the ceilings. Internally, the choice is classic in the furnishings, colours and finishes: chestnut furniture, terracotta and parquet floors in earth colours, neutral shades for the upholstery, white for the walls. The villa is located 4.5 kilometres from Chianciano Terme, a spa town and ancient Etruscan settlement in the Val di Chiana, south of Siena. Surrounded by a welcoming park dotted with olive trees and Mediterranean essences in a hilly position, Villa Pianello has a large living area and a nice kitchen opening onto furnished porticoes, comfortable bedrooms, modern bathrooms and a swimming pool in a secluded position. The villa is the ideal base to best combine the desire for a stay in the relaxed atmosphere of the most typical Sienese countryside with the curiosity to explore an area where nature is splendid and rich in numerous artistic, cultural and food and wine proposals of the highest level. Nearby and within easy reach are Montepulciano, Sarteano, Montalcino, Pienza, Cetona and San Casciano dei Bagni. Thanks to the excellent road network you can visit Siena and the most famous towns of Umbria, such as Orvieto, Castiglione del Lago and Perugia. Before leaving, you cannot miss an immersion in the salubrious thermal waters of the Chianciano spa or the other spas in the surrounding area (San Casciano dei Bagni, Montepulciano, Bagno Vignoni), for an unforgettable wellness experience.
