Your stay in a unique countryside
The farmhouse is located in the South of Tuscany, in the countryside surrounding the medieval hill town of Montepulciano, in the Italian province of Siena. Montepulciano is considered the “Pearl” of the 16th century and its inhabitants take their name from its illustrious and well-known citizen, the poet Angiolo Poliziano.
The farmhouse set on the border between Tuscany and Umbria is the ideal base for visiting the most enchanting art Tuscan cities such as Siena, Arezzo and Florence and the most stunning villages of Val d’Orcia as Pienza, San Quirico d’Orcia, Bagno Vignoni and Montalcino. The province extends up to Umbria making it possible for our guests to quickly reach the most distinctive borghi (historic villages) of Umbria like Assisi, Gubbio, Spello, Montefalco and the regional capital Perugia.
We are also a farm
Our farmhouse, named after La Rocca family, is situated in the middle of the family’s farm and It is considered one of the most important in Valdichiana. It extends for 400 hectares divided between vineyards, orchards, vegetable and cereal plantations, all “zero km” products that you can taste at our restaurant prepared by our Chef Federico.
Podere La Rocca is immersed in the tranquility of Tuscan countryside landscapes. The location is divided into three parts: La Villa, on two floors: on the ground floor there is Podere La Rocca Restaurant and on the first floor there are one apartment and two rooms; the dépendance, La Vecchia Stufa. This latter one has recently undergone renovation works that have conferred a more refined and elegant touch to the structure. Finally, La Casa Rossa which is made up of three apartments and four rooms in addition to the reception and the relax room where you can enjoy your time reading a book or playing pool. Rooms are quiet and with all modern comforts; the spacious private bathrooms would be the envy of the most distinguished noble Tuscan families.
