Location

Between Siena and Arezzo, a little off the beaten track, the fairy tale castle of Bucine rises from the hills of Tuscany. The hamlet next to the castle has been transformed into a vacation village with luxury apartments and villas. All of Chianti and Tuscany lie beyond with so many fabled towns and villages to explore, you will be torn between enjoying your village or visiting new ones. You are, amazingly, a fifteen minute drive from the A1 highway that links Rome with Florence, but unless you know how to find this property, it is unlikely you will discover it. Arezzo, famous for its antiques market, charm, and medieval jousting is half an hours drive. Siena and Florence are a 45 minute drive and Rome's airport about 2.5 hours. You can avoid driving into Florence by catching the local train that gets you right into the center of that city in an hour. The restaurant that serves several days a week during mid and high season is a real bonus. Optional breakfast is available for an extra charge. There is a small bar and local wine and olive oil are available for purchase. This lovely property has so much to offer to the vacationer whether a couple or an extended family. The variety of accommodations welcomes mixed groups and family reunions, too. Close to well-known towns like Arezzo and Siena, it also lets you wander solitary among the olive groves and ancient hills.

Exterior

The property has 700 acres of woods, olive groves and vineyards to wander. An unrestored borgo used for farm purposes lies a hundred yards down the road and just beyond is a fishing lake. Fishing poles are available. The large, sunny shared swimming pool (26x66 feet or 8x20m) is almost competition size. You may reserve cycling tours, guided walks and treks, and private or group cooking lessons.

  A perfect stay in Tuscany

  We loved our stay at Bucine Cotogno. This is a wonderful, off-the-beaten-track place to relax and unwind, yet it's close enough to main roads and trains to get you wherever you want to go in Tuscany. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable, the staff is helpful and friendly, and the meals were delightful and delicious. We highly recommend Borgo Bucine.
