Located 20 minutes from the Piazza del Campo – the town center of Siena – is Villa Scacciapensieri. Perched atop the hill – Colle della Capriola – the Villa offers dramatic views of the vineyards and family-owned farms that line the Tuscan valley.
Constructed in the late 1790s, the villa boasts 3 suites, 24 double rooms, and 4 single rooms – all equipped with the modern amenities one would expect.
The restaurant, Altri Tempi, offers a daily menu prepared from fresh, seasonal, regional ingredients. In summer, the outside terrace provides an intimate dining experience with dramatic views of the countryside.
Located between Siena and the vineyards of Tuscany, Villa Scacciapensieri is centrally located for excursions into the historic town of Siena or visits to the many wineries dotting the Tuscan countryside.
