About Sovicille
Sovicille's countryside is mostly forested and rises to the Montagnola Senese. The historic centre sits on a rise at the foot of the Montagnola inside a 15th-century wall, and once had a 12th-century castle owned by the Bishop of Siena. The municipality covers about 144 square kilometres and is a cluster of villages, among them Torri, Rosia, Brenna and San Rocco a Pilli. Torri keeps its medieval layout, and its once rich abbey left a 14th-century basilica and a cloister. The homes are spread over about 7 km, mostly with a private pool and a garden, and nearly half have a fireplace. They sleep four at the middle, though a few take far larger groups.
