The Farmhouse is situated 25 miles south of Siena, between the village of Radicofani and San Casciano ai Bagni ,1500 feet above sea level from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of your surroundings from the Castle of Celle sul Rigo to the slopes of Mount Amiata.
The very special geographic position of Casetta Scaramelli ensures a comfortable temperature and cool breezes even on the hottest summer days.
The Relais di Campagna Casetta Scaramelli offers you the opportunity to experience an oasis of peace and tranquility in the heart of the most authentic and unspoiled part of Tuscany: the Orcia Valley.
It extends South of Siena, separating Lazio from Umbria, and it stretches along two of the most beautiful and historical roads of Italy: Via Franchigena and Via Cassia.
The Val D’Orcia is so rich in natural and artistic beauty that the five Counties that are part of it- Montalcino, Castiglion d’Orcia, San Quirico D’Orcia, Pienza, Radicofani- created the Parco Naturale e Artistico della Val D’Orcia which aims to ensure conservation and protection of its environment.
Val D’Orcia is a top destination for food and wine lovers. It is in this area that you find some of the best producers of Brunello, Vino Nobile and Chianti, the best pecorino cheese of Pienza, the best free-range meat and cold cuts from Cinta Senese and the best Porcini mushrooms and black truffles from Mount Amiata.
