The essence
Tenuta La Barricaia is a wine-estate house set among its own vineyards and centuries-old olive groves outside Sarteano, on the edge of the Val d'Orcia. A 910-square-metre main villa and a guest annex a few steps away hold thirteen en-suite bedrooms for up to twenty-six, with a three-level living room under panoramic windows, a glass-walled dining veranda over the vines, a private wellness centre with a heated indoor pool, and a 15-metre infinity pool looking across open country. The family's working winery — more than 200 barrels and barriques in the cellar — opens its doors for private tastings reserved for guests.

The distinction
Thirteen en-suite bedrooms for up to twenty-six — eight in the main villa, five in a guest annex just metres away — or the main villa alone for sixteen.
A private wellness centre on the lower level: heated indoor pool with massage jets, Finnish sauna, steam room, sensory showers, relaxation and massage rooms, and a Technogym gym.
A 15 × 5 m infinity pool set above the vineyards, with views running to the horizon.
The estate's own award-winning winery on the doorstep — 27 hectares of vines and a cellar of more than 200 barrels and barriques, opened for private tastings and experiences for guests.
Built for gatherings: a glass-walled dining veranda, a professionally equipped kitchen and grounds that suit weddings, family reunions and retreats.
The villa
On the ground floor of the main villa, a large three-level living room with sofas, armchairs and a fireplace sits beneath windows onto the view, beside a bright dining area whose doors open to the garden and pool, and a professionally equipped kitchen with a wood-fired grill. Six double bedrooms, each with its own shower room, fill the first floor; a seventh sits alone in the tower, and an eighth, with an accessible bathroom, opens directly to the outside. A lift serves the house. Below, the wellness centre holds a heated indoor pool with massage jets and a counter-current, a Finnish sauna, a steam room, three sensory showers, a relaxation area and a small gym. The 170-square-metre guest annex adds five more en-suite bedrooms, each with its own outside entrance, one of them accessible.
The setting
About 5 km from Sarteano, the medieval hill town on the edge of the Val d'Orcia, reached by 3 km of well-kept unpaved road through the estate's vineyards and olive groves. Pienza, Montepulciano and the thermal pools of Bagni San Filippo are all within easy reach, the Chiusi motorway exit is five minutes away, and Chiusi's station connects to Florence, Siena and Rome.
Where it sits
Approximate location: the nearest village, not the villa itself. The exact address comes with your booking confirmation.

Living here
Mornings swimming above the vines or in the heated indoor pool, afternoons between the sauna and the terrace, and evenings at a long table on the glass veranda as the light goes over the Val d'Orcia — with a private tasting in the barrel cellar, a tasting dinner or a massage arranged on request.

From the journal

Val d'Orcia
Val d'Orcia in April and May is a different region from the August postcards. Wildflowers along the SP146, the lambs, the cantinas at their easiest. The editor's view of the most photographed weeks of the Tuscan year.

Val d'Orcia
Pienza, the planned Renaissance city built in five years between 1459 and 1464. The pecorino, the pope, the perfect piazza, and how to use the town as part of a Val d'Orcia week.
