Cetona – An Ancient Town With Its Fortress

The town of Cetona is nestled at the base of the mountain with the same name, in the southern part of Siena in Tuscany and it is a interesting destination for vacation.

Mount Cetona has been the site of many ancient civilizations, with archaeological remains dating back to the 80^th century BC found in the Gosto caves. Many of these ancient caves are contained in the Belvedere Park, as well as sites of Etruscan finds that you can visit.

All of this is tucked into a natural landscape that one can imagine being just as beautiful during the Renaissance as it is today, with its timeless rolling hills and vast greenery.

Cetona is a comune and town in the south of Siena, where Umbria and Lazio meet. Its landscape is mountainous and distinctive, providing wonderful vistas across the area. Visitors to Cetona will want to make sure to find time for the Naturalistic Archaeological Park of Belvedere, where they can experience the historical and archaeological heritage of the area alongside its natural beauty. For those who really can't get enough of the area and how lovely it is, they can also trek up Mount Cetona. Topped by a medieval castle, it only heightens the already picturesque nature of the landscape. If you're looking for the ultimate fairytale-style setting for your next holiday, this is just the place. Find a villa near town in Cetona and discover its beauty for yourself.

In our final post in this series, we have two more of our most beautifully decorated vacation rentals in Tuscany. Both of these properties are historic beauties with interiors plucked right from a period movie.

9. Rocca di Cetona

The noble residence "Rocca di Cetona" is set majestically atop of a hill with commanding views over the Chiana Valley, surrounded by the historic town of Cetona. The property has Etruscan roots as three towers, one of which remains. This tower is incorporated in a later 17th century villa and is surrounded by 2 acres of parkland. It is a true architectural gem with more than two thousand years of history but has been carefully restored to ensure a comfortable stay today.

Visit one of the most scenic places in all of Italy, the rustic town of Sarteano in the south of Tuscany! It’s an ancient town with an intricate network of narrow streets and alleys built at the base of a huge medieval castle dating from 1038. It stands on a plateau of Mount Cetona at over five hundred metres above sea level and is a perfect blend of manmade structures and nature.

This harmonious coexistence and varied range of interesting tourist attractions has earned it the esteemed Orange Flag award. Tourists wishing to stay here for a few days have a great choice of vacation rentals in Sarteano.

When one thinks of castles in Tuscany, the great urban palaces of the Medici tend to spring to mind. However, in reality, there are many more examples and a great deal of variety all across the region that are just waiting to be discovered.

Sarteano, for example, is a stunning Tuscan town that has long been a bit of a hidden gem and is very distinctive; a lush and green place with a medieval core and topped by its famous giant castle. The castle is the main highlight and dates to the twelfth or thirteenth century. It is surrounded by a double circle of walls enclosing an imposing square keep with round towers at the sides and is a bold and striking building in a perfectly strategic location. Bought by the city of Sarteano in 1998, it was opened to the public in 2006, after a long series of restoration works. Inside, you can explore the service rooms necessary for a castle to function, head to the ramparts for stunning views across the surrounding landscape, wander the courtyards and uncover secret passageways and outside you'll find the pretty park that the complex is located on. Just find a holiday rental in Sarteano and you can begin exploring this fascinating building.

Sarteano is a stunning Tuscan town that has long been a bit of a hidden gem. Only recently have its many attractions and boons have become public knowledge to a wider audience outside the region.

The town itself is immediately distinguishable; a lush and green place with a medieval core and topped by its famous giant castle.

The castle is definitely one of the main highlights of the town and is a must-see but there are plenty of other historic and cultural gems to be discovered and explored; from Etruscan tombs to Renaissance palaces and medieval churches to local festivals, Sarteano has a diverse offering of interesting local attractions.

Just find a holiday rental in Sarteano and you can begin delving into everything the town has to offer.

Very Good 4^/5 Villa Review Rating Details

Beautifull location on a hill of over 700 m. 2,4 km of unpaved road to the location. Nice house, clean, good showers and bath. Some wineglasses were missed.
Energie price was high, €50 for one week.
