About this property
Once a working barn and later the art studio of Seboo Origo, Casale Medici is now a welcoming Tuscan farmhouse for six guests, blending rustic charm with thoughtful modern touches. Step inside and you’ll find terracotta floors, beamed ceilings and simple, homely furnishings that create a warm and easy-going atmosphere. The open-plan kitchen leads straight to the garden, perfect for carrying suppers outdoors, while the living room invites you to sink into its sofas after a day exploring. Three bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, provide comfort and privacy, with air conditioning ensuring a restful night in every season.
Outside, the private garden and shaded pergolas offer views of the Crete Senesi and the wide sweep of the Val d’Orcia. A wood-fired oven sets the scene for slow al fresco feasts, while the estate’s shared swimming pool promises cooling dips. It is set against the backdrop of UNESCO-protected landscapes, with trails weaving into the surrounding hills and valleys.
Casale Medici is set in the Val d’Orcia, a landscape so evocative it has inspired countless Renaissance painters. A nearby village, Chianciano Terme, is known for its thermal baths, wellness centers, and charming piazzas - the ideal spot for a leisurely afternoon exploring local shops or sampling traditional cuisine.
Just a short drive away, the medieval town of Pienza is famous for its pecorino cheese and honey-coloured piazzas, while Montepulciano and Montalcino tempt with world-class wines. The local area is ideal for walkers, with trails meandering through cypress-lined ridges, clay hills and wooded valleys. Markets brimming with seasonal produce, family-run trattorias and historic churches provide a taste of authentic Tuscany, while thermal baths in Bagno Vignoni offer a restorative soak. This corner of Tuscany is also steeped in history, dotted with monasteries, castles and farmsteads that tell centuries-old stories. Whether you’re here for food, wine, culture or nature, the Val d’Orcia surrounds Casale Medici with experiences to savour.
