Description The Pienza: Pienza

Offering panoramic valley views over the surrounding olive groves, this countryside spot invites guests to experience rural Tuscany at its finest. Just a short drive from Monticchiello, you'll have easy access to the town's shops and restaurants despite your countryside location. And with miles of valley routes in the local vicinity, it's the perfect spot for hikers and cyclists. At the villa, you'll have a private swimming pool and a covered terrace annexe with a fireplace, pizza oven and alfresco dining area to enjoy the Tuscan sunsets. While the interiors feel a little dated in terms of design, they don't seem out of place amid the traditional lifestyle of this part of Italy.
