“La casa di Lucia” is located at the heart of a charming Medieval village called
Castelmuzio, an old Etrusco-Roman settlement. This typical village, fortified
with walls and bastions, is deep in the Val d’Orcia, a famous Tuscan art and
culture park that became one of UNESCO ‘s World Heritage sites on 2 July 2004.
La casa di Lucia is just 4km from Pienza, the Renaissance town famous as the
birthplace of Pope Pius II and for its popular Pecorino cheese. Nearby
Montalcino, the renowned home of Brunello wine, is well worth a visit for its
delightful art sites, especially the Basilica of Sant’Antimo, where a Gregorian
mass is still chanted in Latin every day. Other places to visit in the area
include San Quirico d’Orcia, Montepulciano, for its “vino nobile” produced by
the great Poliziano winery; enchanting Montichiello, whose villagers stage
spectacular amateur theatre performances. For guests seeking a weekend of
complete relaxation, why not travel the 20km or so to the spas at San Casciano
dei Bagni, Bagno Vignoni, Bagni San Filippo, Chianciano Terme, or just a little
further to Rapolano Terme. Also close to Castelmuzio is the Pieve di Santo
Stefano in Cennano, a rural church of Early Christian origin, built over a Roman
temple, worth admiring in all its splendour. Last, but not least, a chance to
discover Siena, one of Italy’s loveliest cities and only 40km from Castelmuzio.
Here guests can not only explore the city’s beautiful architecture and
experience traditions that have survived the centuries, but also attend the
totally unique Palio race, held twice a year in July and August.
