Overview

Chiarentana was once a medieval fortress and has been 'de-gentrified' over the centuries, becoming one of the main farm buildings on the property. The 6 apartments are still named after the peasant families who last lived here. The square building surrounds a large, shady courtyard planted with climbing roses, lavender and a deliciously scented lime tree. The arched entrance admits a cool breeze and leads out into the wide landscaped garden with a pool (15x7 m) and a tennis court. The view from here is spectacular and surveys the entire valley, but your eye will finally settle on the dominating Monte Amiata, Tuscany's highest mountain. The garden is furnished with tables and chairs for all apartments, each far enough from the other to guarantee each party sufficient privacy.

Hand-made terracotta floorings, the warm yellow of the walls, friendly colourings and comfortable furniture and above all, lots of space, make this apartment exceptional.

Wifi Internet access a specially appointed room at Chiarentana, accessible to all guests.

On this video, listen to the owner Donata Origo as she talks about the restoration of Chiarentana, which took up to 20 years.

Guest reviews

La Foce, Chiarentana and the whole Tuscany are great places that will allow me to understand life from a different perspective. There is something in this place, something magical that helps put things in perspective. Grazie
