Villa Tirelli | 5-Bedroom Villa in San Casciano dei Bagni (SI) Provinc

The Val d’Orcia’s Renaissance landscapes unfold from Villa Tirelli’s terraces—a converted farmhouse where ten guests discover why Renaissance masters chose this terrain as their muse. Located 5km south of San Casciano dei Bagni (SI) in Tuscany’s most cinematically consistent region, this luxury villa rental commands views across chalk plains that have remained aesthetically unchanged since Leonardo da Vinci sketched them five centuries ago.

Inside Villa Tirelli

Villa Tirelli sleeps 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, distributed across two levels of stone-walled spaces that feel simultaneously expansive and intimate. The architectural bones are original—beamed ceilings, terracotta floor tiles, antique furnishings—yet the infrastructure is contemporary: climate control, fibre-speed internet, contemporary kitchen equipment.

Ground Floor: Two king-bedded suites, each with private en-suite bathrooms, occupy the ground level—ideal for guests preferring no stairs or for multi-generational groups where grandparents need proximity to common areas. The master suite functions as a self-contained retreat. The kitchen dominates the working heart: a fully equipped culinary space with professional-grade hob, substantial refrigeration, dining table seating eight, and direct garden access via a substantial portico. Stone archways define the transition from kitchen to dining room to living room, where a wood-burning fireplace anchors a seating arrangement of substantial cushioned sofas. French windows frame garden views from the sitting room.

First Floor: Three further bedrooms occupy the upper level—two furnished with king beds and one with twin configuration. Each bedroom is individually styled; the twin bedroom pairs effectively with one of the king bedrooms, creating a parent-children setup without the necessity of multiple properties. All upper-floor bedrooms benefit from cross-ventilation and countryside outlooks.

Four bathrooms distribute logically: each ground-floor bedroom has en-suite facilities, while upper-floor bedrooms share two further bathrooms equipped with shower facilities, heated towel rails, and modern sanitation.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The property commands multiple outdoor territories, each suited to different times of day and moods. An expansive lawn stretches to one side—the kind of open space where children actually run, where croquet becomes competitive, where afternoon shade-seeking becomes strategic.

The pool terrace sits elevated 3-4 steps above the main garden, a deliberate separation that creates acoustic privacy and visual drama. The heated swimming pool measures 10 metres by 4 metres with graduated depths from 90cm to 180cm, accommodating both shallow-water loungers and swimmers. A stone waterfall feature softens the mechanical edges; a pergola structure frames the pool without fully shading it, allowing extended sunny lounging while providing tactical retreat. Sun loungers group strategically around the pool perimeter.

A substantial portico adjacent to the kitchen functions as the primary outdoor dining zone—the kind of roofed terrace where lunch extends from 1pm to 4pm without sun exposure becoming unbearable. A stone barbecue grill anchors this space, separating grilling operations from the dining furniture.

An olive grove borders the property, its silvery foliage catching light differently at each hour. Morning light through olives differs entirely from evening light; this property teaches guest-observers why Tuscan painters spent lifetimes on similar views. The cypress-lined boundaries create windbreaks and visual privacy from neighbouring properties.

Location: San Casciano dei Bagni (SI) and the Surrounding Area

San Casciano dei Bagni (SI) translates literally as “of the baths”—the thermal springs that have drawn visitors since Etruscan times. Bagno Bossolo and Bagno Grande offer free bathing in naturally heated sulphurous waters; a dedicated spa facility provides treatments from massage through skin therapies utilising the mineral-rich springs. The town itself sits 5km away, housing a small supermarket, post office, and several dining options including Ristorante Daniela, where regional cuisine reflects seasonal availability.

Montepulciano, 25km northeast, is famous for Vino Nobile wine production—the hillside town’s cantinas offer tastings and cellar tours. Montalcino, 30km south, produces Brunello di Montalcino, considered among Italy’s finest red wines; the Abbazia di Sant’Antimo monastery sits nearby, a Romanesque structure from 1118. The white travertine pools of Bagni San Filippo, 18km east, create natural swimming basins in a limestone landscape unlike anywhere else in Tuscany.

Siena, approximately 60km north (90-minute drive), remains one of Europe’s most intact medieval cities—the Piazza del Campo hosts the Palio horse race each July and August, a spectacle drawing thousands. The city contains 42 churches, multiple art galleries, and Gothic architecture throughout its winding streets. Across the regional border into Umbria, Lake Trasimeno sits 45km away—the largest lake in central Italy, offering boat rentals, lakeside villages like Castiglione del Lago, and family beaches.

The region supports extensive cycling and walking infrastructure; marked trails connect towns throughout the Val d’Orcia.
