Siena sits on the horizon, but this 14th-century Carthusian monastery on the city's edge is hard to leave. The boutique hotel has 22 very individual rooms: former monks' quarters reimagined with bold headboards, jewel tones, and tiled bathrooms. The gardens are the heart of the place, soundtracked by birdsong. Wisteria for breakfast, wine under the magnolias, afternoons by the pool or on the tennis court.

country living, slow travel
8:09 AM
Find the pergola with the blooming wisteria and go for a full breakfast spread served on the hotel’s fun striped crockery. Thick-cut oranges, granola and yoghurt and a cornetto of course.
10:14 AM
Spend the morning in the city – you will have spotted it from your bedroom window, but now you can explore the charming streets up close. We love the views from Orto de' Pecci, and the Museo dell’Opera is a must for culture vultures.
12:00 PM
Head back for a long, lazy lunch at La Limonaia. Caprese salad, vitello tonnato, pici pomodorini, does it get any better?
2:41 PM
Claim the court for a game of tennis. Who’s serving first?
6:04 PM
Find the billiard room for a pre-dinner game, followed by an aperitivo at the Magnolia Bar (we love sitting by the fire pit). Order the Sunset under the Magnolia Tree – made with limoncello, vodka, elderflower syrup and ginger beer.
8:30 PM
Choose to go al fresco or keep it pretty inside at La Certosa. It’s a touch fancier, so wear something sharp. Don't forget to finish with the scarpetta!

They collaborate with local suppliers and foster a community that bridges Siena with the wider world, ensuring both local roots and global connections thrive.
The hotel preserved much of the original monastery during renovation, sidestepping demolition and reducing unnecessary waste.
Salvaged materials were thoughtfully repurposed throughout the restoration, weaving the past into the present with care.
