The villa is located along a tiny lane that runs up from the villa, past
the Convento di S. Bernadino, and then off into the Tuscan countryside. The
old hilltown is a short (though somewhat steep) walk from the villa. This
part of the town is realitively untouched since the 16th century.
In the past century, a newer part of Sinalunga has been built up at the base
of the hills. This part of town provides all the conviences you could
need for your stay without spoiling the quaint surrounding where the villa
is located.
Sinalunga offers all you imagine when you think of the Tuscan countryside.
There are numerous hilltowns in the immediate vicinity. Rolling
hills, highlighted with patches of cypress tress, stretch to the west.
A broad valley, with wheatfields, farm houses and vineyards stretches
across to the east of the town, till it reaches Cortona (location of "Under
a Tuscan Sun") and the large Lago Trasimeno. Florence, Siena, Arezzo
and Perugia offer you an intimate look at the birth of Renaissance art.
