Poggio Piglia
Cultured contemporary casale — old bones, modern soul. Stark furniture, original art by Cosimo Andrisano, travertine bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling glass where you'd expect stone.
Book the Independent Villa (Villino) for the most privacy and the best views — it's set apart from the main building among the olive trees
Why It Matters
Michelin Guide-listed and Mr & Mrs Smith-approved. Designed with input from an architect team connected to Norman Foster and Richard Rogers. Produces its own certified organic olive oil and Sangiovese wine sold worldwide. Rated #1 specialty lodging in Chiusi on TripAdvisor. The Independent Villa is one of the best-kept secrets in Tuscany for honeymoons.
A 150-year-old Tuscan estate on 19 hectares of woods, vines, and olive groves, reimagined as a sleek, minimalist boutique hotel. The Marzeglia family spent seven years building their vision: stone walls and wood-beamed ceilings on the outside, crisp contemporary interiors and Kartell Ghost chairs on the inside. Nine rooms max 21 guests, its own Sangiovese wine, 900-plus olive trees, and an infinity pool that seems to tip into the Val d'Orcia.
