[Siena Senese Crete] 5 minutes Chianti-Val d’Orcia | Apartment in Arbia

Home Flower welcomes you to Minuetto, a delightful accommodation located in a perfect area: just a 5-minute drive from Siena and the most beautiful areas of the Siena province, in a UNESCO-designated zone. Minuetto is centrally positioned at the crossroads of the Crete Senesi, Chianti, Val d’Orcia, Terme di Rapolano, and Val di Chiana.
One of the most exciting features of Minuetto is its proximity to the passage of the Treno Natura, a vintage steam locomotive from the 1930s. This train follows a characteristic route, departing from Siena and stopping at Torrenieri, crossing the Crete Senesi, the Val d’Orcia (a UNESCO World Heritage site), and the areas of Brunello di Montalcino.
In such an area, sustainability is essential. Minuetto boasts a large photovoltaic system that provides power to the entire structure, especially during sunny periods.
We’ll be delighted if you bring along your furry little friend. We’ll only ask for a small extra fee for cleaning.
Minuetto is an apartment that will make you feel at home. It has been carefully renovated, bright, well-ventilated, and functionally furnished. It’s suitable for a comfortable vacation or even for work. You’ll find a convenient low coffee table sofa workstation for comfortable laptop use.
The house is equipped with fast WiFi throughout (tested at Mbps). An external staircase leads to the entrance door on the first floor.

An arched doorway leads to a beautiful eat-in kitchen, fully equipped with all necessary utensils (plates, glasses, cutlery, cookware, moka pot, etc.) and appliances (Nespresso machine, kettle, microwave, conventional oven, immersion blender, etc.). In our welcome kit, you’ll discover various organic Tuscan products, including extra virgin olive oil and vinegar. We’ll also provide some snacks and breakfast items. You won’t forget your stay easily! 😊
From the living room area, you can access the spacious master suite, which features a comfortable queen-size bed, a dresser, two bedside tables, and a wardrobe with large sliding doors. The first-floor bathroom is equipped with a large mirror, sink, bidet, bathtub, hairdryer, and an initial set of quality organic toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, and intimate soap).
A beautiful staircase leads to the upper floor, where you’ll find the second cozy master suite. It has access to a private bathroom with a shower cabin, a large mirror with a sink, a chest of drawers, a hairdryer, and another set of high-quality organic toiletries.

You’ll also find a laundry area with a washing machine and a garden equipped with a barbecue, a table with an umbrella, and chairs for delightful outdoor grilling!
Please be informed that the MINUETTO apartment also has a heating system; however, it is activated upon request and costs an additional €24 per day.
The Treno Natura from the 1930s
It is a beautiful vintage train with a steam locomotive. It operates on an almost monthly basis (during spring and autumn) and follows a characteristic route. Starting from Siena, it touches Torrenieri and crosses the Crete Senesi, the Val d’Orcia (a UNESCO World Heritage site), and the areas of Brunello di Montalcino. This journey allows you to see unforgettable places.
During a stop at the Monte Amiata station, a bus takes travelers to Castiglion d’Orcia for a tasting of typical local products from the Siena province area. In the afternoon, the bus brings travelers back to the Torrenieri Station, where the Treno Natura concludes its route at the Siena station, allowing passengers to enjoy the final stretch aboard the famous steam train.
