Details
The house opens onto the piazzetta on one side and a private yard to the back of the house. The restoration of this charming rural building was managed by Daria Cervini, who runs Vivo d'Orcia with her 2 brothers. Her sense of style has turned this house into a place where new meets old in the best of ways.
A large glass door leads into the superb kitchen where an old farm table serves as main dining table. Two steps lead into the living room with huge fire place, which also opens up onto the piazzetta.
On the same ground floor a twin bedroom with adjoining bathroom has french windows into the back yard.
Lovely old terracotta stairs lead to the upper floor. Here a single bedroom which can also be a dressing room leads to the masterbedroom with its bathroom.
The saltwater pool lies at less than 200 m from the house.

The Castle of Vivo d'Orcia lies in the widespread Orcia valley in southern Tuscany, 2 hours from Florence, 1 hour from Siena, close to such cultural jewels as Pienza, Montalcino and Montepulciano, to name but a few.
The hamlet Vivo D'Orcia lies at an altitude of 900 m above sea level. The particular combination of altitude and meditteranean climate creates an unusual whealth of flora and fauna. Many wild animals such as deer, wild boar and foxes as well as the most deliscious truffles call the Monte Amiata their home.
Vivo d'Orcia estate is surrounded by century old chestnut trees that cast their shade in the gardens of the houses, ideal for al-fresco meals outdoors. Fresh fruit and tomatoes, spicy sausages, homemade pasta and polenta, mushrooms from the woods next door, truffles, and of course the precious local olive oils and wines.
