Five-star boutique hotel and estate Borgo Santo Pietro in Tuscany, Italy redefines its concept of 'ultimate seclusion', unveiling two magnificent 84.3 m2 pool house suites, each endowed with its own exclusive pool, and two luxuriously private garden suites.



The four new suites comprise: La Casa dei Fiori Bianchi
2 x Ultimate Seclusion Pool House Suites

 

La Casa dei Fiori Bianchi takes ultimate seclusion to a stratospheric new level. Designed as two separate suites that can be connected internally via the garden to form a single complex, each suite is endowed with its own expansive terrace and entirely private 36 m2 saltwater pool fitted with a Jacuzzi and cascade for a touch of hydrotherapy massage.

The terraces are designed for private entertainment for couples and groups alike, with lavish shaded lounge areas with fireplace and sunbeds by the pool. Inside, soft thick textiles, Fortuny silks, Travertine flagstone floors, and a silvery grey and bronze palette create a light- filled ambience that is both uplifting and grounding.

Space reigns supreme, from the separate bedroom, living room and walk-in wardrobe to the luxurious bathroom with double vanity and Roman-style marble bath situated in its own glass enclave overlooking the pool, which opens directly onto the terrace.

Situated alongside the Pilgrims' Path, which traces an ancient pilgrimage route through the grounds, La Casa dei Fiori Bianchi's interior pays homage to the Knights Templar, who protected medieval pilgrims en route to the Holy Land and brought back innovative ideas from afar.

Dina Ferri - Ultimate Seclusion Garden Suite

This suite is named in honour of renowned local 'shepherdess poet' Dina Ferri (1908–1930), whose powerful words still evoke the spirit of place surrounding Borgo Santo Pietro.

A cocoon of calming green hues, the suite immerses the guest in the Tuscan landscape, with a sweeping pastoral scene painted by hand and private gardens on two sides that envelop the suite in total privacy and silence.

Indoors and outdoors blend seamlessly with ultimate relaxation, with fireside lounge settings situated both within the suite and outside on the terrace and a luxurious Moroccan day bed tucked away on its own lawn. The suite’s spacious bathroom is designed for pure indulgence, featuring an elegant sofa tossed with Fortuny silk cushions, a Travertine stone shower and double vanity, and a hand-painted clawfoot bath that invites a luxurious soak by the open French doors leading onto the sun terrace.

Dea Feronia - Ultimate Seclusion Garden Suite

Sky, earth and garden hues come together in Dea Feronia, named after the Etruscan fertility goddess chosen as the patron deity of Borgo Santo Pietro's farm. Rich Fortuny silks and a bespoke carved fireplace in creamy stone reflect the light and lustre of this spring-toned and supremely feminine suite, which also features an enormous walk-in wardrobe and spacious bathroom with Travertine stone shower, double vanity and freestanding bath.

Enveloped by lush private gardens, the terrace is dotted with sunbeds overlooking the greenery, with an ample lounge setting by the outdoor fireplace and a Moroccan daybed to enjoy the serenity of the surrounds.
