Nearby are renowned estates that produce excellent wines and olive oil.

Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, is just 45 minutes away and offers some of the finest galleries, museums and architecture in the world.

Other towns worth visiting are San Gimignano (35 minutes), famous for its many towers, and, for “Twilight” fans, Volterra (1 hour), a fascinating town with Etruscan roots.
