Fattoria Bellandi is situated in one of the most captivating regions of Tuscany: the Val d’Orcia, a land known for its stunning landscapes and ancient traditions, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The scenery features gentle hills, solitary cypress trees, dirt roads winding through wheat fields and pastures, creating iconic views that have inspired Renaissance painters and contemporary photographers.
Contignano, the village that houses the property, has Roman origins and still retains the authenticity and tranquility of a small rural center. Its walls and narrow streets tell stories of centuries spent in harmony with the land, encompassing art, agriculture, and spirituality. The proximity to the Provincial Road of Monte Amiata makes it easy to explore the surroundings, connecting the Via Francigena to charming villages and the most picturesque destinations in the area.
Just a few kilometers away are architectural and cultural gems such as Pienza, known for its perfect urban layout and shops selling pecorino cheese; San Quirico d’Orcia, with its Italian gardens and Romanesque churches; Bagno Vignoni, famous for its thermal pool in the piazza; and Montalcino, home of Brunello wine, featuring the impressive Abbey of Sant’Antimo. Nearby are also Montepulciano and Chianciano Terme, located in the heart of Val di Chiana, further enhancing the cultural and wellness offerings of the region.
Nature enthusiasts can enjoy hiking, biking, or horseback riding along the routes of the Via Francigena or through the forests of Monte Amiata, while those seeking relaxation can take advantage of the numerous thermal spas in the area. The entire region is also an exceptional destination for anyone looking to experience authentic gastronomic delights, with wineries, dairies, and olive oil mills where one can savor the true flavors of Tuscany.
