Just a 2-hour drive from Rome, in the heart of Tuscany, this meticulously restored 14th century hamlet is surrounded by olive groves and fruit trees. From its ancient walls, stone terraces and cobbled streets, this private escape affords you panoramic views of the breathtaking Tuscan hills, including a spectacular view of 10th century Pierle Castle. One- and two-bedroom residences have been lovingly restored, accentuated by low doorways of long ago, and small windows cut through thick stone walls. Fully equipped kitchens and cozy bathrooms blend subtly with time-honored solidity of terra cotta floors, exposed beam ceilings, and luxurious Busatti linens woven on centuries-old looms.

Why is this resort unique?

Borgo di Vagli is the result of a 10-year restoration project by renowned restoration engineer Fulvio Di Rosa. It maintains as faithfully as possible its medieval atmosphere and look, without compromising modern-day comforts. Borgo di Vagli will appeal to those who enjoy the charm of ducking under low, 600-year-old doorways, capturing scenic views framed through windows cut through thick stone walls, and dining in a traditional candlelit Trattoria.
