Siena House Torrita di Siena - Tuscany

Siena House is the perfect example of how an ancient country residence can be transformed into a contemporary rural retreat, a place in which to experience both the traditions of Tuscany and the latest in modern design and hospitality. Located in the rolling countryside of Torrita di Siena, where the hills of Siena meet those of Valdichiana, Siena House is the result of a playful game of contrasts, in which the past complements the present and the present complements the past.

With its attractive facade in brick and stone, from the outside, Siena House has all the appearance of a typical Tuscan country residence. Once inside the old walls of the building, the atmosphere changes dramatically, and guests find themselves in a contemporary environment, surrounded by the very best in modern interior design. Siena House's four bedrooms contain the same stylish concoction of the old and new which characterizes the communal spaces, featuring old stone floors, large shuttered windows, and a selection of stunning contemporary artworks and accessories.

The large open plan living room is the focus of life in the country house and one of the spaces which guests love best, its contemporary and ethnic inspired furnishings creating the ideal environment in which to relax whilst reading a good book or enjoying a glass of one of Tuscany's finest wines. Via a steel and wood stair guests access the "Torretta": a small loft space with a stunning view of the surrounding countryside. The living room merges into the kitchen where breakfast is prepared. In the warm summer months, breakfast is served in the garden.
