Pieve di Caminino Sketch









Karen's Review Of This Property:
Pieve di Caminino

Daniela and her architect husband, Piero, brought the family’s ancient property back to life. Dating back to the 9th century the property contains a Romanesque church, now the site for concerts. The complex of stone houses is surrounded by vineyards, woods, olive groves (source of the family’s prestigious olive oil), and a garden including a collection of English roses. Five suites and two apartments are attached to the main house. Each accommodate two to five persons. Simply furnished with the family’s country antiques, wrought-iron beds, and original paintings by Daniela’s father, a renowned fresco painter. They feature living rooms with fireplace and balconies with view to either the sweeping countryside, down to the sea, or out to the woods, All the units are rented on a self-catering basis but breakfast can be provided for a fee by request. Besides a pool with spectacular views and massage treatments, painting classes are organized in May and October. Along with Siena and Montalcino, there are plenty of off-the-beaten-track sights to see organized by son, Emiliano. Bikes can be rented.

We just returned from our Honeymoon, which started right on Valentine Week - end. Pieve di Caminino was even more than I expected. Great and warm welcome at check in, and then I found my room - La Foresteria - all lighted by candles, with a giant sparkling fireplace under a Murano chandellier. The incredible service and most amazing surroundings could not be beat! We would recommend this to anyone looking for Charm, character and the ultimate experience.

I recently moved to ROME for my job, from Germany, and immediately I became a fan of this hidden treasure of Italy, and consequently a frequent client. I was lucky enough to see this inn in at least 3 different seasons, and I cannot say which is the best: walks in the magnificent rose park in spring, swimming in the panoramic pool in summer, drinking a welcome glass of excellent \’morellino\’ wine in winter.
It is not far from Rome, specially if you are driving from the Airport. Everytime I know I have a 2 day off break the first thing I do is to reserve a suite at Pieve di Caminino, \’La Bifora\’ in spring-summer or \’The Schoolhouse\’ in winter (its fireplace is in the center of the suite, so you FEEL it everywhere).
The surroundings are full of interests, it is a perfect home base to explore all South Tuscany, from Saturnia Springs to Siena.
The only one recommendation is to respect the required check in time 3.00pm - 8.00pm: since it is a family business, they would consider very unpolite if you check in later than the requested time.
