| Borgo Pretale, an island in the green. Borgo Pretale, a secluded place, known to a priviledged few immersed in a secular woodland of Holm oak, juniper and myrtle few miles myrtle south of Siena. A magical ambiance created by a medieval village miraculously preserved, a fortified tower dated 1100 transformed into a four stars hotel surrounded by a handful of small and comfortable stone houses as accommodation. Noteworthy places rich in art and culture in the immediate vicinity as well as unedited itineraries of one's own discovery, towards churches, forts towers and hermitages of medieval origins. |
