Stigliano

With its impressive stone tower standing sentinel over the valley, Stigliano looks much as it did in the 13th century.

Tuscany can rightly be described as the true heart of Italy – and is the location of this ancient palazzo which is close to Siena and Florence. La Torre (the Tower), La Casa del Pastore (the Shepherd's House), Il Porcile (the Pig Sty), La Scuola (the School House) Il Fienele (the Barn), La Torricella (the Little Tower) and Il Granaio (the Granary) have been converted to provide 35 studios, one, two and three-bed apartments and bungalows.

In 1991, Stigliano opened its doors for the very first time and welcomed holidaymakers with open arms.

Part of an ancient fortified village situated near , Stigliano towers above the countryside.

The original tower was built 800 years ago, but the surrounding buildings – indeed, the village – came along a bit later. The reason? Feudalism: the peasantry considered itself – or themselves – better protected by sticking close to the “signore del maniero”. He and his family in turn benefited from a steady supply of bread, meat, and labour. The tower drew the villagers to it.

Fascinating stuff – and it's left a legacy of architecture behind it that will have historians in raptures.

And, not only did this happen in 1991, but the news also included Britain's first astronaut, 27-year-old Helen Sharman from Sheffield, who was blasted into orbit and Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti singing in the British rain with a huge free concert in London's Hyde Park to celebrate 30 years in opera.

Villa Cetinale & Romitorio 🌿

This walk is largely in woodland, much of it shaded by the trees, and with great views in places. The path leads from the Villa Certinale up to the great Romitorio, high on the hillside above. It is a long, steady climb, but with no very steep gradients. The Romitorio, a former hermitage, is dated 1716. It has four storeys and some unusual features, including an Egyptian cross. At the front is an impressive well... https://okt.to/oQ2u4D

September in Tuscany: Where every corner is a masterpiece. 💛

"One of my favorite places in Tuscany is the tiny (and I mean tiny) little Hamlet of Stigliano. We drove all the way across southern Tuscany and even though we weren’t planning on stopping in Stigliano that day we were routed right through.

I have not found a familial connection to Stigliano even though it is our Italian surname, yet every time I am in this place I feel as though I am home.

There is something very magical about this place, and I will be back again!" 💕

Let There Be Light 💡

The Holiday Property Bond’s 800-year-old Tuscan palazzo, is an arresting enough sight by day; but by night Stigliano becomes even more atmospheric. Spooky? Perhaps; but we prefer spine-tingling – and the new external lighting shows it to good effect, we hope you’ll agree. ✨

The recently re-rendered buildings look spectacular silhouetted against the inky-black sky.
More prosaically but just as importantly, the new lighting improves the safety of evening walks to the local village and the popular shop, bar and restaurant.

Don’t forget that nearby is an easy day trip from Stigliano and a beautiful city that oozes medieval charm. The second of Siena’s famous Palio horse races is taking place on 16th August in the Piazza del Campo. The origins of the race date back to medieval times and if you happen to be on site in time to catch this historic event it is quite a sight to behold. At the time of writing there are a few properties available for the week of the Palio. https://okt.to/lg6Xuq

While in , you have to experience a wine-tasting trip. 🍇

There are plenty of wineries around to choose from if you want to step out on your own or, if you prefer to let someone else take all the hassle out of organising it (and getting you home again), you can join the site-organised weekly trip to Tenuta di Trecciano. This small exclusive winery is based in a nearby valley and produces full-bodied wine with Sangiovese grapes. You’ll see the vineyard, visit the cellar and taste a range of their wines. 🍷

Does is get more romantic than Tuscany? 💕

With the impressive stone tower standing proud over the valley, Stigliano looks much as it did in the 13th century. The ancient buildings have been sympathetically restored and the surrounding grounds have been landscaped to incorporate olive groves. A romantic stay here is bound to hit all the right buttons when it comes to charm.
