The Tuscany region
Situated in one of the most idyllic part of Tuscany and hidden among secular holm-oaks, pines, vineyards, olive groves, ponds and creeks, Palazzo di Piero has that special charm of etruscan sites. At the end of an oak-lined drive stands the large medieval residence with its elegant loggia and bell tower, its chapel painted with frescos from the 16th century and its lovely inner courtyard. The farm is located close to Sarteano (2 Km), to Chianciano (4 Km), famous for their thermal waters, and to Chiusi, rich in fascinating archeological sites and near the border line between Umbria and Toscana.
Southern Tuscany / Umbrian Border / Sarteano area
Our area is an excellent holiday base, opening up both the Siena region and the Umbrian region around Lake Trasimeno. This zone was one of the most powerful domains of Etruscans; the town of Chiusi was a point of exchange before Rome was founded. Montepulciano is at only 12 Km.
Any nook of the countryside can hide a treasure: a little church with an unknown artistic work or an ancient memory of a battle. The nature, makes this zone very various and unique.
Chianciano Terme, just 4 km away, is famous for thermal water and the best Spa of Italy.

Guestbook for Santa Elisabetta
"This place is straight out of Under The Tuscan Sun. The setting is idealic with vineyards and a castle and a beautifully restored farmhouse. Plenty of exploring to do on this huge and varied property. The staff went out of their way to be helpful in any way. The place was spotlessly clean. Our best stay yet!"
"It was like a dream when we arrived at the fattoria! We stayed in a converted farm house which was lovely and spacious and clean. We were a stones throw from the castle, church and swimming pool. There is also a vineyard there, and we had free rein of the grounds, all 250 hectares of it(There are also 2 lakes on the property)! It was a true Tuscan experience, the views and walks were amazing; we had initially thought of renting bikes to really see Tuscany but if you stay at Palazzo di Piero you don't have to leave the grounds. It was exactly what we had thought Tuscany would be like, it's so far removed from anything we had seen before. Carmen and the rest of the staff were so nice and helpful, and really made our stay enjoyable. We all fell in love with Carmen, she was so nice! Their wine was gorgeous as well! Thanks so much for everything, you really made our trip!"
"Perfect ! Marvellous stay in the Fattoria di Palazzo di Piero, thanks to Carmen from the staff... Huge swimming pool, typical tuscan landscape all around, everything great !"
"We had the most beautiful time in this great palazzo! The staff was very helpful and kind, and Carmen is the nicest person in the world. We had a car so we could go to the main turistics points in the area but if you don't it could be more complicated but they have bikes for rent so it's not a problem. Although staying just in the fattoria and enjoying the peace and beauty of the place, is not a bad idea, the place is awesome! We hope to come back soon."
"Great place to get the feeling of calm tuscan countryside while still beeing close to the main sightseeing spots and general roads."
