Between the Val d'Orcia and the Val di Chiana

“It is impossible to see more beautiful fields.” – JW Goethe, Italian Journey

Between the Val d'Orcia and Val di Chiana , on the hill from which it takes its name, near the medieval village of Celle sul Rigo , stands Il Poggio . From the Casale, the company's central structure, you can enjoy an unparalleled view that sweeps from the Rigo Valley, up to the profiles of the Rocca di Radicofani , Amiata and Monte Cetona , to the Elvella Valley , bordered in perspective by the village of San Casciano dei Bagni.

Il Poggio, born from the union of two family businesses previously run according to traditional methods, began its agritourism activity in 1987 , with the first renovations of the rural buildings in the company center. Over the years, Il Poggio has grown, but has maintained the identity of its offerings: the familiar welcome, typical of Tuscan hospitality, in the apartments of the Borgo and the suites of the Casale , the traditional and tasty cuisine of the Restaurant , the Equestrian Center with its customizable horseback riding vacation options, and the Farm with its organic products.
