The living quarters: The agriturismo offers stay in 4 spacious apartments with a total capacity for 15 guests. The owners restored the property in a traditional Tuscan design and furnished the apartments with all the amenities so that you feel like at home - all the bedrooms have their own bathroom with shower, toilet and bidet; kitchens are fully equipped for long-term stays. While WiFi is available across the property, TV has been abolished to immerse the guests in the tranquility of the countryside.
Agriturismo Chiancianello is a romantic and secluded getaway in the middle of the Tuscan Val d’Orcia, UNESCO heritage protected area and Lucciolabella Nature Reserve. Its hilltop position offers guests 360-degrees views of the surrounding valley and towers of the medieval villages of Pienza, Castiglion d'Orcia and Radicofani. It provides a great base to explore surrounding countryside: biking, hiking or relaxing in thermal pools dating back to Roman times. For those enjoying food and wine, regions of Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano are both within half an hour reach. Adjacent to the property is a natural lake with a beautiful sunset sceneries, often attracting local wildlife.

In off-season 2023/2024 we are planning to replace the temporary pool with bio-lake that will have 15 m length for swimming/bathing and separate basin for fytofiltration to secure the natural cleaning with plants and ozone. In spring and fall there is a jacuzzi and sauna for warming up in a colder weather. As avid cyclists, owners built a fully equipped cyclist depot with 6 e-bikes, 2 standard bikes, 3 bikes for kids, double bicycle for couples, bike trolley and child seat. Ask the owners about recommended trails suiting to your preferences. The property is also prepared to welcome guests arriving on electric cars having its own charging station (220/400V). During the season there are vegetables, herbs and small fruits grown on the property which guests can pick for their refreshment and cooking. If you like eggs for breakfast, ask Sara, the daughter of the owners, as she keeps a small flock of chickens.

Hosts: We, Eva & Pavel with our two daughters Sara and Emma, have bought the place in 2017/2018 to change the way we live and relocated here, at least for a few years. We come from the Czech Republic and Slovakia and on top of our native languages we all speak English and are learning Italian. Prior to the relocation here, the family has been visiting Tuscany and Val d'Orcia since 2008. We are in love with its landscapes, small hill-top towns with narrow cobbled-stone streets and wine & food delights. when not in the house we are probably spending our time renovating a new villa Montelandi that should be ready for guests in 2025. Since the relocation we have been also falling in love with local people and Serena, our co-host, is one of the most amazing people with her heart devoted to Chiancianello.
