Podere Orcio is immersed in the beautiful context of the hills that crown the medieval town of Volterra, just 10 km away. The house, built as a Pisan watchtower in 1504, has been renovated using local materials, respecting the typical architectural elements of Tuscan tradition, and is now today ideal for a relaxing and tranquil holiday. In the garden surrounding the property are large shady areas where you can relax, inebriated by the typical scents of the area, and a splendid swimming pool. From the house you can set out to explore nearby historical towns such as Volterra and San Gimignano or to visit the towns that line the golden beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea such as Marina di Cecina, Marina di Bibbona or the white beaches of Vada. The proximity to the motorway junction at Colle Val d’Elsa will take you quickly to Florence and Siena, the two symbolic cities of Tuscany.
