Description Sunflower Sunset: Pienza

In the heart of the Val d'Orcia, this villa offers sweeping views as far as the eye can see. Montepulciano, San Quirico d'Orcia, and Seina further afield are all within driving distance – and all make great options for days out and about in the countryside. But even better than the location is the garden waiting for you back home. There's an ivy-covered pergola ideal for alfresco dining, a private pool overlooking the vineyards, and swings to keep little ones entertained. Inside, modern comforts blend with traditional character. Every bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, making this ideal for families or friends.
