A 13th-century estate on 300 acres of organic Tuscan farmland near Chiusdino, combining a 22-room boutique hotel with a working farm, Michelin-starred dining and an on-site skincare laboratory.

The property was a healing stopover for medieval pilgrims on the Via Francigena, and that sense of restorative purpose still runs through it. The estate is genuinely self-sufficient in a way few hotels manage: sheep produce milk for the on-site dairy, pigs are kept in the forests, chickens supply eggs for breakfast, and the market gardens, herb beds and vineyards feed both restaurants.

Executive chef Ariel Hagen works directly with a master gardener, forager, cheesemaker and fermentation specialist, making Saporium one of the more seriously soil-rooted Michelin-starred kitchens in Italy.

The 22 rooms and suites are spread across the main 13th-century villa and several outbuildings, each individually designed with hand-painted frescoes, antique furnishings and bespoke beds. A holistic spa using the estate’s own Seed to Skin botanical skincare range, a pool, tennis court and extensive gardens complete a stay that is as much about the land as the accommodation.

Accommodation

Villa Rooms and Suites


Eight rooms and suites within the original 12th-century villa, each individually furnished with antiques, open fireplaces, paintings and rich textiles. Views look out over the formal gardens or the surrounding Tuscan countryside. Room names range from the Sir Vincent Deluxe Room and San Galgano Deluxe Room at entry level, through junior suites and themed suites, up to the Santo Pietro Grand Suite at the top of the category. The most characterful accommodations on the property, and the closest to the main house’s historic fabric.

Garden Suites


Two junior garden suites positioned within the borgo gardens with their own private outdoor enclosures. French doors open onto covered terraces, lounge areas and garden fireplaces, creating a strong indoor-outdoor connection. All interiors have fireplaces and generous bathrooms with separate showers and baths. A good middle ground between the intimacy of the villa rooms and the fuller seclusion of the estate suites.

Ultimate Garden Suites


Six standalone garden suites at the furthest remove from the main villa, designed for guests who want privacy above all else. Named after herbs and local figures, including Rosmarino, Basilico, Maggiorana and Il Melograno, each has its own outside space and operates as a self-contained retreat within the wider estate. The level of seclusion here is genuine rather than gestural.

Pool Suites


Three pool houses representing the most secluded and private accommodations on the property. Each has its own private pool and outdoor space, with in-villa dining available for guests who want to stay put entirely. The three houses are Dina Ferri, Casa Gerda and La Casa dei Fiori Bianchi. Best suited to honeymoons, anniversaries or anyone for whom a degree of withdrawal from the wider hotel is the point of the stay.

Food and Wine

Borgo Santo Pietro’s dining program is built entirely around the 300-acre organic estate, with a team that includes a master gardener, forager, cheesemaker, baker, fermentation specialist and butcher working alongside the kitchen. The philosophy is described as “beyond organic,” with zero-kilometer sourcing as the baseline rather than a selling point. Saporium Chiusdino is the Michelin-starred flagship, where executive chef Ariel Hagen’s menu responds to what the estate is producing rather than a fixed seasonal framework. La Trattoria Sull’Albero is the more relaxed option, a treehouse-style room built around a large oak tree serving classic Tuscan dishes from the same organic supply chain. A wine cellar with a boutique selection, breakfast program and a dedicated dining experiences program round out the offer.

Spa and Wellness

The spa operates under the Seed to Skin brand, which was developed entirely on site in Borgo’s own laboratory using botanicals grown in the estate’s healing gardens. Every session opens with a fresh herbal tea infusion made from herbs picked that day, followed by a consultation and an oil ritual where guests choose from organic essences drawn from the estate’s signature flowers: lavender, neroli, rose and jasmine. Treatments are either selected from the full menu or built around the guest’s specific needs by therapists trained in a genuinely holistic approach. The spa is open daily from 10:30am to 7:30pm. The wider wellness offer connects directly to the gardens, with healing plant walks, herbal medicine workshops and restorative outdoor experiences available throughout the year.

Spa and Wellness

Gardens

Thirteen acres of formal and informal gardens sit within the wider 200-acre estate, laid out across several distinct zones: relaxing gardens, formal gardens, water gardens, culinary gardens and a wilder section that runs into the surrounding Tuscan landscape. Lavender, jasmine, hydrangeas, roses, aged olive trees and tall cypresses make up the planting, with the gardens feeding both the Seed to Skin spa and the two restaurants. Guided garden tours with the head gardener include hands-on herb harvesting and tea blending. On selected evenings, Italian-themed outdoor film nights are held beneath the trees, lit by fairy lights.
