Situated in the heart of Tuscany, Relais Borgo Santo Pietro was once a healing stopover for medieval pilgrims. Today it continues to provide a sanctuary for modern souls, merging a 5 star luxury hotel and spa concept with a 'farm to plate' philosophy on a 300-acre estate.
A sumptuous feeling of home pervades the 800-year-old luxury farmhouse hotel, with its worn leather armchairs pulled up around open fires, fresh flower arrangements picked straight from the garden, and weathered brick wine cellar lined with boutique labels. Each of the boutique hotel’s 20 rooms has been singularly designed down to the utmost thoughtful detail, with custom-sought antique pieces, bespoke beds and frescoes executed by hand.
Borgo Santo Pietro is located in the Tuscan countryside, just outside Chiusdino. The city of Siena is about 35 km away from the hotel (45 mins by car), while Florence is 88 km away (1h 20 mins by car).
Florence Peretola Airport (FLR): 90 km (1h 20 mins by car)
Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO): 230 km (2h 30 mins by car)
Perugia and Pisa airports are both two hours away.
The nearest train station is Siena (35 minutes away)
