Borgo Belsedere

Borgo Belsedere is located in one of the most scenic spots of all Italy - the corner of the Val d'Orcia and the Colli Senesi - overlooking the picturesque Tuscan rolling hills that you would know from tourist guide covers. 5 minutes away is the small Tuscan hilltop village Trequanda, the shopping centres of Sinalunga/ Valdichiana are a 15 minute drive and Siena is around 40 minutes away. The tourist towns of Pienza, Montepulciano and Montalcino are all around 25 minutes from here.

We have acquired the farm in 2022 and are now in the process of putting it back to its former beauty. We have vineyards, olives and grain fields, as well as chicken, cats and a dog.

Food is all supplied by us and volunteers have a kitchen for them at their disposal to use. Also, as part of living here you will be expected to contribute your share of keeping the structure clean. There is absolutely no traffic noise here and a you can enjoy our stunning night-sky with very little light pollution. Transport: we have a car (standard; not automatic) here on property, which can be borrowed for occasional use. We will gladly pick you up from a nearby train station upon your arrival.

We came as a couple to create social media content. The work load was perfect, it gave us a lot of time to explore the surrounding areas. The host gave me a lot of creative freedom and trusted my skills to create the best content possible which was great! The common area for the volunteers was nice, a great private room with some good showers was nice to have. It does get chilly inside in November though. Overall a truly beautiful place to be !

I had a wonderful experience at the Borgo Belsedere estate. I was free to create what I wanted and was able to improve my video and editing skills. The location is beautiful and the people I met were wonderful. I just want to mention that it is important to be an organized person who knows how to take responsibility to avoid any conflict. Thank you very much for this experience.

Belsedere es muy lindo, alejado del ruido y el caos. Si quieres reconectar con la naturaleza es el lugar ideal, tienen estudio de yoga y una piscina que puedes ocupar, hay un auto a tu disposición para recorrer los pueblos cercanos así que no te vas a aburrir. Los otros voluntarios que conocí fueron excelentes personas y se convirtieron en AMIGOS que sé que serán para toda la vida.

SM consiste en realizar fotos y reels para las redes personales de Martín & Vanessa, ellos fueron muy abiertos a escuchar nuestras opiniones y agradecieron mucho el trabajo que hicimos para ellos.

The place is really nice, with a splendid view and fully equipped kitchen, it's a dream of any cooking enthusiast. It's also good to visit nearby small towns in Tuscany during weekend.
