Castello di Tocchi is a medieval village dating from 1100. Despite being at the centre of the wars between Florence and Siena, its medieval walls and the magnificent arched entrance have remained intact and still exude a certain antique charm. The views of the surrounding area take in mixed woodlands made up of oaks chestnuts and cork trees, and rolling hills dominated by the peak of Monte Amiata.

Guests can participate in a series of guided tours of any chosen towns, discover the local producers and the characteristic products they have to offer, take part in a cooking course run in the municipal rooms in the centre of the village or go horse riding (for those with experience).The strategic position of the village means that it is easy to visit centres of historical and artistic interest such as Siena, Florence, Montalcino and San Galgano, and also take a trip to the seaside, only 40 km away.
