Farmhouses

Location

The elegant farmhouse is set in the countryside of Valdorcia, near Bagni San Filippo.

Bagni San Filippo is a thermal town in the province of Siena renowned for the therapeutic properties of its waters, which over the centuries have created a spellbinding landscape made of white calcareous formations, cascades and small basins immersed in the gorgeous woods. Widely renowned are Fosso Bianco - a torrent in the woods that can be reached by a charming pedestrian path -, the Balena Bianca - an enthralling calcareous formation resembling the mouth of a whale - and the Acqua Passante - a small water spring below the town.

Along the road leading to Bagni San Filippo is the grotta di San Filippo. The legend goes that the cave was the place where San Filippo Benizi - to whom the town owes its name - lived. Nowadays the cave is a rocky chapel housing a plaster bust of the saint and a wooden crucifix probably the work of Filippo Benizi himself.
