La Locanda di San Francesco
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Set in a fourteenth century palazzo in the heart of the old part of Montepulciano, and with breathtaking views over the Val d'Orcia and the Val di Chiana, the Locanda San Francesco offers an exclusive destination for those who want a holiday with a difference in one of Tuscany's most beautiful hill-towns.
The Locanda has just four bedrooms, each of them decorated individually and furnished with fine antiques from the family collection. On one side the rooms offer panoramic views of the Val d'Orcia, while on the other they look over the rooftops of the town towards the Val di Chiana, and as far as the lakes of Trasimeno, Montepulciano and Chiusi.
The town's best restaurants, the shops and the Poliziano Theatre are all within easy reach on foot. In summer a few minutes' walk will take you to the various cultural events that take place in Montepulciano: classical music concerts in the sixteenth century Palazzo Ricci; performances of the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte; the barrel -race known as the "Bravio delle Botti"; wine tastings in Piazza Grande, and so on… |
