In the heart of the Val d'Orcia National Park and the Natural Reserve of Lucciola Bella, on a natural terrace overlooking Mount Amiata, the Farmhouse Le Macchie assures contact with nature in a protected and uncontaminated oasis. The view of the rolling hillside is unique and varies constantly with the passing of sunlight and the changing of the seasons.
Le Macchie's central location makes it the perfect accommodation for your holiday home in Tuscany. Located just southeast of Siena, the estate is ideally situated for day trips to Florence, Siena, Assisi, Perugia, and Pisa. You may also choose to discover the highlights of the spectacular Orcia Valley with its wealth of medieval villages, including Pienza, Montalcino, Bagno Vignoni, and Monticchiello.
The estate of Le Macchie has produced olive oil for many generations, and for years has fervently dedicated itself to the cultivation of olives with the utmost environmental respect. The oil produced is extra virgin "Terre di Siena D.O.P.", exported all over the world and available to purchase onsite.
What was once the ancient stone farmhouse of the Araldo farm, built in the beginning of the 17th century, has been transformed into three charming apartments. Each has been fully modernized and restored with respect to the original design of the noble Borghesi family of Siena, who were the original owners of the farmhouse. A cozy atmosphere encompassing an intricate brickwork floor, the restored wooden beams and the great original stone fireplace is a testimony to the past and a warm welcome for each of its guests. Just a few minutes walk form the main buidings lies the charming stone cottage of Colombaiolo for those wishing for some privacy.
