Le Logge di Sopra, is a family run B&B with swimming-pool located in the countryside, in the heart of the “Crete senesi”, in a strategic position for a quick tour or a pleasant week full of significant highlights offered by nature, history, culture, gastronomy and oenology. The transformation of the large, striking wine vault into 3 snug rooms and 2 apartments, thermally comfortable at all times, has created a cosy structure that offers peace and privacy to guests, also due to the small number of people who can be accommodated at the same time. Guests can relax in the a beautiful solarium, where they can enjoy a vast, breathtaking view, or in the meticulously manicured garden with swimming pool. There is also a free private car park with automatic gate. The lovely breakfast-room, obtained from the ancient cellar, lets guests experience the emotion of a mouth-watering breakfast. Homemade cakes, biscuits and jam, the wild flowers honey typical of these areas...not to mention the Tuscan prosciutto ham and salami, the typical cheeses of the Crete Senesi, like the pecorino cheese, served with delicious bruschettas made with our olive oil and vintage balsamic vinegar aged in chestnut and juniper barrels. Other services: private parking with automatic gate, tv-sat (Dvb-S), frigobar, electric kettle, solarium, barbecue, garden, mosquito-net at windows, bed linen and bath linen, credit card payment. It is ideal also for winter holidays, owing to the nearby thermal baths, located 10 minutes away (in Rapolano Terme) and open all year round. A special mention is deserved by the culinary specialities served at the typical restaurants (some of which with special rates agreed with our B&B), like the “ribollita”, the “pici” with wild boar, the chickpea or spelt and porcini mushroom soups, the charcoal T-bone steak called “Bistecca alla Fiorentina” with white truffle, considered to be the “white gold of the Crete Senesi”.

Driving on the “Autostrada del sole” (A1) toll road, coming from the west or south, exit at the "Val di Chiana – Bettolle" gateway and follow the SP 326 provincial road in the direction of Siena (it is a 4-lane road). After about 16 km, take the "Asciano" exit in direction of Asciano. Drive through Asciano and then take the SP 438 provincial road (called Lauretana) in the direction of Siena. Cross the bridge on the Ombrone River and, after 4 km, on the right, you will find the “Le logge di sopra” estate (indicated by a road sign placed 350 m from the estate, and by a brown sign with “Le logge di sopra” written in white placed on the left, close to the B&B). If you come from north (driving on A1, take the gateway "Firenze-Certosa"), so also from the north, therefore also from Florence or from Siena, exit the A1 toll road at the "Firenze-Certosa" gateway and take the Firenze-Siena highway. At the end of the highway (Siena by-pass included, never exiting so as to avoid a more complicated route) the road forks: to the left towards Grosseto and to the right towards Arezzo/Roma. Bear right towards Arezzo/Roma. After about 5 km (and two short tunnels) you will find another fork: to the left towards Siena and to the right towards Arezzo/Roma. Keep right and you will end up on the SP 73 provincial road (Siena-Bettolle); after only 1,5 km, turn right in direction of Taverne d’Arbia–Asciano (road works are ongoing; be very careful to turn right and not go straight towards the A1 toll road). Drive through Taverne d’Arbia and Arbia and keep on towards Asciano for 15 km (it is a beautiful road, where many films and spots are shot). About 50 m after the indication of km 13 of the SP 438 provincial road (Lauretana), on the left, there is Le logge di sopra (indicated by a road sign placed 500 m from the estate, and by a brown sign with “Le logge di sopra” written in white placed on the right, close to the B&B). At this point, all you have to is ring the bell at the gate... Your journey is over and we will be there to meet you!
