Highlights

Borgo Pignano is an elegant country estate in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, just a short drive from the historic, hilltop towns of Volterra and San Gimignano. The 750-acre organic estate blends a working farm with a world-class resort experience and also acts as an ideal base for exploring Florence, Siena or the vineyards of Chianti nearby. The former 18th century villa and hamlet dating from Etruscan times has been sensitively restored to capture the soul of Tuscany through its architecture, culinary and wellness traditions; with a contemporary twist. The privately-owned Borgo offers warm heartfelt hospitality with some of the most commanding views and sunsets throughout Tuscany, alongside its very own modern art gallery. Families and couples alike become one with nature at Borgo Pignano, spending quality time hiking, biking or horseback riding on the extensive path network, or enjoying yoga, wine tasting, cooking or art classes at their leisure. The property is composed of three distinctive areas: Villa Pignano, sophisticated and elegant, the Borgo, with its maisonettes, dynamic with a lively attitude, and the Villas, luxury and comfortable. Culinary options at Borgo Pignano work harmoniously with the organic farm and its seasonal offerings. The Michelin-star restaurent Villa Pignano, offers fine-dining with an innovative menu complimented by an exquisite selection of organic and biodynamic Tuscan wines. Family style serving in the Fireplace Restaurant offers a relaxing environment in which to meet fellow guests and the traditional Restaurant Al Fresco offers an informal dining experience set in beautiful gardens throughout the summer. The beautifully designed and elegant spa captures Pignano's well-being philosophy, which includes history, nature, health and relaxation, with a range of natural and organic treatments. Separate adult and children's pool areas ensure both families and couples harmoniously co-exist on the extensive grounds. Borgo Pignano's heated infinity pool is hard to match and provides breath-taking views over the Tuscan countryside towards Volterra. Detox from daily life and relax in the comfort of Borgo Pignano, a resort steeped in regional traditions, sustainable agricultural practices, care for the environment, natural wellness therapies and organic foods and wine for a truly authentic Tuscan experience.
