Perks for the Parents
Renaissance charm melds with family-friendly Tuscany to produce a beautiful off-the-beaten-track residence in Brenna where you can appreciate views, drink local wine and explore Siena, Chianti and sleepy local trattoria. It’s the ideal place for an inspirational holiday with a slow travel feel: stroll to the village and back, cycle to the nearby river and nature reserve, or dine at a pizzeria nearby. The kitchen has a gas cooker, fridge and microwave oven.
Why Kids Love it
This is a great location for exploring family-friendly Tuscany - not just vineyards, but beaches (80km away), spas, horseback riding and river swimming too. The kids room has 2 twin beds and a baby crib is also available, along with a high chair. It is quiet at night. The bedrooms have a view on to the cultivated fields. There is a wood-fired pizza oven in the garden, perfect for creating do-it-yourself pizzas.
Things to Know
Minimum stay: 5 days. There are hard floors throughout - typically terracotta tiles - and some steps outside the building in the garden and alfresco eating areas. There is central heating. The hosts have deliberately created a building in tune with the environment and surroundings and ask guests to respect it eg by using water consciously, turning off unnecessary lights and using natural ventilation where possible. Bikes are available.
About the Location
The residence is in Brenna, a little village with basic amenities 12km from Siena and 80km from the nearest beach and renowned spas. A good location for visiting classic Tuscany - Siena, Chianti, Val d’Orcia and ancient villages and landscapes. Siena is within cycling distance while Rosia nearby has shops, bars, restaurants and a pharmacy. Florence is the closest airport, around an hour away, with Pisa airport 2 hours away. Car hire is recommended but train could work too.
Accommodation Details

One bedroom has a double bed, the other has 2 twin beds. The bathroom has a shower, stone basin and wooden/glass elements. The outdoor space is a stone patio, with relax chairs, teak dining tables and benches, stone-carved washing basin.
Style Notes
Classic Tuscan architecture with luxury touches. Villa Amedeo is part of a network of properties that respect the history, nature and culture of the place and its people. The furnishings and fittings have been chosen with great care, and the restoration preserved its identity, deliberately avoiding the introduction of items that are not inherent to the place, such as swimming pool, tennis courts or air conditioners.

Siena, Tuscany
Crazy horses and cobbled squares
Siena’s ravishing medieval architecture is usually lost on children. Pique their interest with an adventure up the bell tower, a gallop through the narrow streets and a gelato at half time while jazz drifts through the air from the renowned music academy. Twice each summer there is a three day medieval-style event with a costumed parade in which men race around the town square bareback on horses in a wild race called the Palio, making for a most memorable experience.
