Podere Collelungo gets its name from the 380 m high hill on which it stands, surrounded on every side by scenery of rare beauty made up of hills, gullies, oak woods, expanses of cultivated fields that stretch to the horizon and green hills topped by old picturesque villages. The property stands, secluded and silent but not isolated, in an enchanting position in this lovely strip of land, straddling the valleys of the Orcia and the Chiana, within the Val d'Orcia Artistic and Cultural Park and in the southernmost part of the province of Siena, not far from the borgo of Celle sul Rigo and from the prestigious little town of San Casciano dei Bagni. The complex, consisting of a main house and two former barns that have been completely renovated, maintaining the architecture, charm and warmth of the typical Tuscan farmhouses, is the ideal solution for guests wishing to share the common areas inside the main house, where the ground floor is composed of a large living space with seating areas, a large country kitchen and a long table for everyone to eat together, but, at the same time, to have their own private space thanks to further kitchens and living rooms present on the first floor and in the annexes. Outside in the vast park surrounding the buildings, a succession of lawn areas dotted with bushes of Mediterranean herbs and broom, outdoor living areas and a large pool will be the best places from where you can admire picture postcard sunsets and enjoy the quiet country atmosphere. Within a few kilometres are interesting tourist destinations (Montalcino, San Quirico, Radicofani, Castiglione d'Orcia, Pienza, Monte Amiata), prestigious spa resorts (San Casciano dei Bagni, 7 km away, Montepulciano, Bagno Vignoni, Chianciano Terme), a tennis court (at the multifunctional field in Celle), golf clubs (at Panicale and Bettolle) and a riding club with professional instructors close to the property, for a holiday dedicated to wellness and sport and to discovering the artistic, culinary and environmental treasures which abound in the area.
