Moreover, our dear neighbors (also experienced hosts) and our friends in Siena will be helping you with all you need.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
Search for "monteriggioniturismo" on the internet for relevant tourist info.
It is the ideal location to start your bike and mountain bike tours of the area.
Get used to greet hikers passing by and asking for directions to Monteriggioni's castle: the house is located on a portion of Via Francigena, that the pilgrims in the Middle Ages used to walk to reach Rome from France - today it is a well indicated and beautiful hiking track, across olive trees fields and vineyards.
Across an easy path though the fields and alongside the woods, you can bike to Monteriggioni in 15 min or walk there in 30 min. The last part is uphill, so you need good legs ... but the nice view and an ice cream at the castle will repay the effort!
The house is located 300 mt out of the small village of Abbadia Isola, so you will enjoy the nature and the natural sounds of the countryside, while still being at 5 min drive from the nearest supermarket, bank, pharmacy & bus & train stop.
You can park your car in front of the house or inside the property.
GETTING AROUND:
Siena is the closest main town and can be reached by car in 12 minutes, while Florence is 45 mins drive away.
Rapolano Terme (thermal baths area) is also within 35 mins reach by car. Free thermal baths of Petriolo and of San Filippo also within a 30 min drive.
Driving to the seaside (Cecina, Piombino, Castiglione della Pescaia, Marina di Grosseto) would take a little more than one hour, while ski mountains can be reached (Monte Amiata) in one an a half hour.
San Giminiano, Volterra, Pienza, Montalcino, Bagno Vignoni, S.Galgano, San Quirico d'Orcia are just a few of the nice excursions within less than one hour drive.
