A
stay in Orcia Valley can reserve to the guests different
surprises and
healthy benefits. As soon you arrive in this fantastic valley of Tuscany,
where the name of the river passing across reminds you the shell shape
of the valley, tour eye is immediately
captured by the beautiful sienese hills, where the gentle views are
interrupted by the harsh “crete senesi” (sienese clays).The
mountain Amiata closes and dominates the all valley with its huge
profile. In this incredible scenery,
right in the middle of the “Natural
Cultural and Artistic Orcia Valley Park (created by the five
municipalities of the area), is located, in a modern building at the top
of an hill, the S. Ansano farm
holiday. The house was built in the middle of the nineteenth century,
when the local authority (Ente Maremma) decided to develop the
uncultivated lands of the valley, giving them to some families that were
ready to live and to work in the valley.

Ansano farm in the beginning was specialised in cereals production,
but today has been transformed by the two owners Dino and Rosanna
