Villa Conti Galgani

A Tuscan Estate Where History Lives Slowly

There are places in Tuscany that seem to exist outside of time. Places where the landscape unfolds in soft layers of olive groves and rolling hills, where stone walls hold centuries of stories, and where the rhythm of life is measured by long lunches, golden sunsets and the changing light across the countryside.

Villa Conti Galgani is one of them.

Set in the heart of Tuscany, between the historic Val di Chiana and the wild Val d’Orcia, this elegant private estate brings together centuries of history, contemporary comfort and the unmistakable beauty of the Tuscan landscape. Originally part of a 16th-century convent, the property has been carefully restored by the Galgani family, preserving its historic character while introducing the comforts and elegance of contemporary living.

The villa can accommodate up to 14 guests, offering an intimate retreat surrounded by gentle hills, lush olive groves and beautifully tended gardens.

A Story Written in Stone

The history of Villa Conti Galgani dates back to the 16th century and is closely linked to the Piccolomini Todeschini family, a prominent Tuscan family with close ties to the papacy. Over the centuries, the property passed through several generations and families before becoming part of the Galgani family estate, which has been preserved and cared for across generations.

Original architectural details, stone façades and historic elements are complemented by carefully selected contemporary furnishings, creating an atmosphere that feels both authentic and sophisticated.

Every corner of the estate reflects a profound respect for its heritage, while offering guests all the comfort of a modern Tuscan retreat.

Seven Suites, Seven Expressions of Tuscany

At the heart of the estate are seven elegant suites, each individually designed to combine handcrafted antique furnishings with contemporary pieces and precious materials.

Filled with natural light, the suites overlook the lush gardens and the surrounding Tuscan hills, creating peaceful and intimate spaces in which to retreat at the end of the day.

Modern comforts, including climate control, en-suite bathrooms and entertainment systems, complete the experience.

The shared spaces continue the same dialogue between history and contemporary elegance. Spacious living rooms with stone fireplaces, refined sitting areas and a fully equipped kitchen create inviting settings for relaxing, gathering and sharing time together.

A Slower Way of Living

Perhaps one of the greatest pleasures of staying at Villa Conti Galgani is simply having the time and space to enjoy Tuscany at its own pace.

There is time to walk among the olive trees, admire the countryside from a shaded terrace, relax by the pool or gather around a table as the sun begins to set.

The outdoor spaces are designed for embracing the Tuscan way of life, with a private swimming pool, shaded terraces and pergolas, a gazebo and panoramic areas perfect for outdoor dining and sunset aperitifs.

The gardens, olive groves and paths across the estate create a peaceful setting for both relaxation and exploration. A traditional wood-fired oven, barbecue area and aromatic herb gardens further enhance the experience, inviting guests to enjoy the pleasures of outdoor living.

From the Olive Grove to the Table

One of the most authentic expressions of the estate is its olive oil.

Villa Conti Galgani produces a high-quality Frantoio monocultivar extra virgin olive oil, made exclusively from olives harvested from the estate’s own trees.

With a distinctive and elegant personality, the oil has a clean, intense aroma reminiscent of freshly cut grass, accompanied by delicate notes of artichoke.

It is a true expression of the land surrounding the villa: a taste of Tuscany shaped by the olive groves that have always been an integral part of its landscape.

A Tuscan Base for Discovery

While Villa Conti Galgani offers every reason to stay within the peaceful surroundings of the estate, its location also makes it an ideal starting point for discovering some of Tuscany’s most fascinating destinations.

The medieval village of Sarteano is just a short drive away, while Montepulciano, Pienza and Siena can easily be reached for days spent exploring historic towns, cultural treasures and the landscapes that have made this region so beloved.

The thermal waters of San Casciano dei Bagni offer another opportunity to experience the restorative side of Tuscany.

The surrounding countryside also invites a more active kind of exploration. Guests can discover the area through cycling tours, horseback riding in the Val d’Orcia or guided excursions, while private cooking lessons with a chef offer the opportunity to experience the flavours of Tuscany from the comfort of the villa.

A Place for Gatherings and Celebrations

Villa Conti Galgani is also an exceptional setting for weddings, celebrations and bespoke events.

The panoramic views across the Tuscan countryside, elegant interiors, carefully tended gardens and unforgettable sunsets by the pool create a naturally beautiful backdrop for life’s most meaningful occasions.

Whether gathering around a long table with friends and family or celebrating beneath the evening sky, the estate offers an atmosphere that feels both intimate and extraordinary.

Finding Your Nest in Tuscany

In a region celebrated for its historic villas, timeless landscapes and exceptional way of life, Villa Conti Galgani offers an intimate interpretation of the Tuscan experience.

Here, history lives alongside contemporary elegance. Olive groves surround the house, the countryside stretches towards the horizon, and every space has been created to encourage guests to slow down, reconnect and enjoy the simple pleasures of being together.

It is a place to explore Tuscany, to taste it, to experience it.

But above all, it is a place to feel at home within it.
