ELEGANT TRAVELLER

Borgo Pignano Blogs

It is no understatement that Borgo Pignano is a little slice of Tuscan heaven. Set amid 750-acres of organic farmland in an 18th-century villa and Etruscan hamlet, the estate exudes character. The full working farm is the soul of the property, producing fresh food and herbs that are used to create exquisite farm-to-fork menus and transformed into wonderful organic soaps and spa products. There is plenty to experience across the estate, whether you wish to visit the stables and go horse-riding, create your own herbal infusions with the herbologist or learn about honey-making with the beekeeper. Each room, suite and private villa has its own unique sense of charm, while the service is exceptionally warm and friendly. It also boasts a west-facing location, making for stunning sunset displays, made all-the-more magical by cocktails from the resident mixologist – on clear nights, you can even see the island of Corsica in the distance. Something of a secret to many UK visitors, this undiscovered gem is the perfect Tuscan hideaway.
