FARMHOUSE'S HISTORY:
In history books about Siena, a small borough is mentioned under the name of "Clatinianum", which was a witness to many events that forged the destiny of the city, and was laid waste by a band of Spaniards in 1554.
Among the gentle outlines of this landscape and its impressive games of light, a typical treasure of this part of the Chianti region, the Fattoria di Catignano blends itself harmoniously with the surrounding environment; here, in old times renowned oil and wine were made; nowadays the owners welcome their guests personally to apartments masterly renovated in observance of original forms and architectural styles.

Here, lovers of history, art and culture can share those emotions that moved our ancestors to elect this place as their home; the hearty welcome and kind, true attentions you will receive will do the rest to make your stay unforgettable.

The “Fattoria” Residence of Catignano is situated about 8 km. from Siena – the city of art which is so important to the culture and history of Tuscany. It is also only 3 km. from the 408 road which from Siena leads you to Florence, passing first through Gaiole, Radda and Greve in Chianti.

Notes The building, settled in the luscious green Tuscan countryside, is framed by the “Italian garden” and the so called “bosco inglese”. Then between the olive groves you will find the “viale dei cipressi” which leads the way to the swimmingpool, from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of Siena and its surroundings in the distance. Every apartment is furnished with its own well equipped kitchen (self catering apartments) Those who wish to stock up on food can find anything they want in the groceries in San Giovanni (1 km.), Ponte a Bozzone (2 km.), Pianella (5 km.) and Coop (7 km.), a supermarket on the outskirts of Siena. However, in the area – within a radius of 4-5 km. – you will find good and typical restaurants, which are able to satisfy any needs of those who do not desire to cook. Many of the guests that we have known for sometime say that, during their stay, they greatly appreciated the direct and familiar atmosphere that was established from the moment they arrived, for the charming location, for the beauty and history of Siena, for the good wine and the tranquillity which gave them so much pleasure during their stay... We will be delighted to have you amongst them. And it is up to us to ensure that your stay in the Residence also leaves you with a unique and pleasant memory.
