Explore the Region

The property of La Foce lies on the hills overlooking the Val d'Orcia, a beautiful and miraculously intact valley in Southern Tuscany.

Midway between Florence and Rome, it is also within easy reach of Siena, Arezzo, Perugia, Assisi, and Orvieto. Renaissance and medieval gems such as Pienza, Montepulciano, Monticchiello and Montalcino are only a few miles away.

The countryside abounds in lovely walks among woods and the characteristic crete senesi (clay hills); enjoy incredible Tuscan food and taste famous wines such as the Vino Nobile and Brunello, which can be tasted in the local cellars.

We recommend basing yourself in nearby Montepulciano or Pienza, two of the region's most beloved hilltowns, both just a short drive from the venue.
