Borgo San Pietro

This luxurious Tuscan boutique retreat balances its opulent offering with a commitment to sustainability and the beauty of nature that plays out in the sustainable farm, cheesemaking, organic skincare range, holistic spa and 300 acres of gardens and farmland. The 800-year old farmhouse was once a welcome place of rest for mediaeval pilgrims and the cocooning rooms, restaurants, spa and peaceful gardens continue to offer respite to travellers to this day. Though today’s hotel is a more luxurious affair, the 13th century pilgrims would probably feel at home with the farm-to-table principles, biodiversity and regenerative agriculture prioritised by the two restaurants, and the healing therapies of the spa.Each of the hotel’s 22 rooms has been individually designed with the utmost thought, from antique pieces to bespoke beds and hand-painted frescoes. Rooms offer intimacy and seclusion with light-filled, romantic interiors that evoke the character of the historic building. Each offers its own unique character, whether boasting expansive garden views from the large windows, Mediterranean courtyards, or leafy private terraces with a private pool.
