Borgo Santo Pietro is a five-star boutique hotel located in Chiusdino, a small village nestled in the Tuscan countryside between Siena and Florence. After a seven-year renovation, in 2008 Danish owners Jeanette and Claus Thottrup opened the doors of Borgo Santo Pietro to their first Guests, offering an ideal of essential and discreet Luxury. In a short time, Borgo Santo Pietro becomes a favourite destination for anyone who feels the need to spend a holiday outside of time, in the name of sustainable luxury, natural beauty and total well-being, according to the millenary pilgrim tradition.
Both the rooms and suites in the main body of the villa and the exclusive suites with private garden and pool are furnished in a unique style, with attention to every detail, to provide an atmosphere of absolute relaxation and rest.
For those who want to take time for themselves, the boutique spa is a true oasis of wellness and health for mind, body and spirit. Its holistic treatments exploit the natural healing properties of thermal water and medicinal herbs, relieving the body of stress and fatigue and giving way to calm and slowness.
The real luxury, however, that Guests can indulge in here is to lose themselves in nature, amidst aromatic citrus trees and flowering expanses of roses, hydrangeas and jasmine, passing through the organic vegetable gardens, the beating heart of the Borgo Santo Pietro Saporium Restaurant‘s “farm-to-plate” philosophy.
In these gardens, Executive Chef Ariel Hagen and his team work daily with expert growers to find the ingredients and the inspiration to create dishes that combine the pleasure of traditional local flavours with the surprise of unusual and innovative gastronomic combinations. The gastronomic offer is completed with the Trattoria sull’Albero, built around a large oak tree. Ingredients grown in the organic gardens according to the principles of biodiversity, biodynamics and agricultural regeneration are the protagonists of simple, genuine dishes and signature cocktails mixed with local liqueurs. The rustic design and the typical menu of modern Tuscan cuisine create the right atmosphere for a real house on a tree.
Witnessing all this beauty on a daily basis inevitably leads Guests to want to experience farm life at the Borgo for themselves: cultivating the land, harvesting herbs and preparing their own personalised tea blend, recognising flowers and making magnificent flower arrangements, and participating in cooking lessons and wine tastings.
Because Natural Wellness is more than a holiday style, it is a way of life.
