Podere Terrena is a charming holiday home located on a small
agriturismo in a wonderfully peaceful hillside setting, surrounded by
forests, meadows and open countryside. It offers wide views over the
forest-covered hills of the Val d’Ambra and is an ideal retreat for
families or groups of friends looking for a relaxing break in Tuscany.
Situated on the edge of the Chianti region, the house is perfectly
placed for exploring the famous towns and wineries of the Chianti
Classico. Places like Gaiole and Radda can be reached by car in about
30 minutes. The nearest supermarket and a few cafés and restaurants can
be found in Mercatale Valdarno, around ten kilometres away. A wider
selection is available in Bucine. Day trips to Arezzo, Siena, Florence
and Cortona are also easy to organise.
The two-storey stone house is set within a large, well-kept garden with
flowering roses and terracotta pots. Next to the house there is a
terrace with a dining table, while a second larger terrace near the
pool offers additional seating and dining space. It is a perfect place
to relax and enjoy evenings outdoors.
Inside, the house features a blend of traditional Tuscan style and
modern comfort. Light-filled rooms with beamed ceilings, terracotta
floors and carefully chosen antique pieces create a warm and inviting
atmosphere.
The friendly owners live on the ground floor at the rear of the house
with their dog and are happy to assist guests if needed. Cooking
classes and a private cook-and-dinner service can be arranged on site.
Podere Terrena is a peaceful and authentic base for a relaxing stay in
the heart of Tuscany.

About the area
Siena, nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, is a medieval city that captivates visitors with its timeless charm and rich cultural heritage. Known for its picturesque streets, stunning architecture, and vibrant local traditions, Siena is a treasure trove of history and beauty.
The city's historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is dominated by the famous Piazza del Campo, one of Europe's greatest medieval squares. The piazza is renowned for hosting the Palio di Siena, a historic horse race that takes place twice a year and is an explosion of color, passion, and pageantry. The surrounding buildings, with their Gothic architecture, provide a stunning backdrop to the festivities.
At the square's edge stands the Palazzo Pubblico, Siena's town hall, which houses the Museo Civico. Here, visitors can admire some of the most important frescoes of the 14th century, including Ambrogio Lorenzetti's "Allegory of Good and Bad Government." The adjacent Torre del Mangia offers breathtaking views of the city and the Tuscan countryside for those willing to climb its 400 steps.
The Duomo di Siena, or Siena Cathedral, is another architectural marvel. This striking example of Italian Gothic architecture is adorned with intricate marble mosaics and houses an impressive collection of art, including works by Donatello, Michelangelo, and Bernini. The cathedral's Piccolomini Library, with its vibrant frescoes by Pinturicchio, is a highlight not to be missed.
Siena's narrow streets and hidden courtyards are perfect for leisurely exploration. The city's historic contrade, or districts, each with its own emblem and colors, add to the sense of community and tradition that is palpable throughout the city.
For those interested in gastronomy, Siena offers a delightful array of local specialties. Visitors can savor traditional Tuscan dishes such as pici pasta, ribollita soup, and the sweet panforte, a dense, spiced fruitcake that is a Sienese staple. The surrounding region is also famous for its Chianti wines, which can be enjoyed in the many enotecas and wine bars scattered throughout the city.
Beyond its historical and culinary offerings, Siena is also a gateway to the Tuscan countryside, with its rolling hills, vineyards, and charming hilltop towns. A short drive from the city, visitors can immerse themselves in the serene beauty of the Tuscan landscape, which has inspired artists and travelers for centuries.
In essence, Siena is a city that embodies the soul of Tuscany, offering a rich tapestry of art, history, tradition, and natural beauty that makes it an unforgettable destination for travelers from around the world.
