About Chiusi
Chiusi is a hill town with regular trains from Rome and Florence, an Etruscan museum described as one of the most important repositories of Etruscan remains in Italy, and a 6th-century cathedral, the oldest in Tuscany. Under the city run Etruscan tunnels, the Labyrinth of Porsenna, visited on guided tours that start from the cathedral. The hilltop part of town is 2 km from the station, and some stretches of the road lack pavements, so take a bus or taxi up. Shops tend to keep short hours. Our homes are scattered around the countryside, almost all with a private pool and a garden, and they range from small places for two up to very large ones for big groups. Evenings are low-key.

Chiusi villa holidays: questions answered
Is Chiusi good for a holiday without a car?
Partly. Regular trains from Rome and Florence stop at Chiusi and buses reach Montepulciano, but the station is 2 km below the hill town and the villas are in the countryside. A car makes a stay much easier.
What is there to see in Chiusi?
The National Etruscan Museum holds urns, Attic vases and Etruscan jewellery, the Labyrinth of Porsenna offers guided tours of Etruscan tunnels under the town, and the 6th-century cathedral is the oldest in Tuscany.
Chiusi or Castiglione del Lago for a villa stay?
Chiusi is a hill town with an Etruscan museum and a railway station, while Castiglione del Lago, 21 km away, sits on the south-west corner of Lake Trasimeno. Pick Chiusi for trains and Etruscan history, the lake town for water views.
How do you get to Chiusi from Rome Fiumicino airport?
By car it takes about 1 hour 50 minutes. By train you change at Roma Termini and the journey takes around 2 hours 40 minutes, so many visitors prefer to collect a hire car at the airport.
Do shops close in Chiusi on Wednesdays?
Usually, yes. Fruit, grocery and deli shops in Chiusi tend to close for the whole of Wednesday, and other shops keep short hours, so stock up the day before.
