Borgo La Tenuta – 5 star

Immersed in the peace of the countryside, surrounded by the rolling hills of Chianti and a few kilometres from Siena, stands this beautiful borgo. You can say your vows in the church within the resort or perhaps you’ll opt for an outside ceremony, making the most of the pretty surrounding hills.

An exclusive Resort in the heart of the Tuscan country, a medieval estate in the kingdom of cypresses, a sophisticated temple of well-being. Borgo La Tenuta, an exclusive medieval estate in the heart of the Tuscan country, 12 km far from Siena, is the perfect example of the concept of uniqueness as luxury. The renovated buildings of the ancient village are part of two different and complementary realities both surrounded by an authentic natural landscape where history, culture and traditions meet the highest level of comfort. The Resort offers different kind of prestigious amenities, two restaurants, a swimming-pool, a tennis court, the Golf Academy, the 18 hole Golf Course, and the Buddha Spa wellness centre. 

Ornamental, oriental cameos and furnishings traditional to the region embellish the rooms, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere everywhere. With its 72 suites (of which 7 junior suite, 13 suite and 2 presidential suite) spread over eight buildings in the Village, the 5-star Hotel has become part of Tuscany's elite, with a desire to restore and improve the area whilst maintaining close ties with tradition. The personality of the owner, her sense of taste and artistic flair have influenced every single detail - both visible and hidden. No two suites or bedrooms are the same. The interior decoration is characterized by fabulous original pieces, all made to measure, following the designs of the owner, by master craftsmen. The fabrics used for the upholstery; the curtains, bedcovers and cushions, have all been made following exclusive designs. 

There is a clever marriage of modern furnishings and rare examples of Chinese and European antiques, part of the owner's private collection. Since the Middle Ages, the inhabitants of Siena used to immerge themselves in the thermal waters; baths attained such a reputation that also the well-known personalities such as popes, cardinals and princes used to go there. Today, the Buddha Wellness Center proposes this tradition once again, thanks to the extraordinary healing powers of the water of the ancient source that flows naturally to a temperature of over 30°. 

An elegant and refined restaurant, where the exclusive atmosphere provides the perfect setting to discover new flavours that exalt the quality and natural freshness of the ingredients. A magical terrace for dining by candlelight, enchanted by the view over the gentle hills of Siena and the magnificent green. An esteemed wine cellar where you will always find the finishing touch to any occasion.
