Farm Stay near Siena

[saphire605]

Hi! We are looking for a farm stay near Siena.
We are traveling with a 7 yr old and would like to have bike rental available, live farm animals, horse riding (or near site), restaurant on site (or close by). Along with views of sheep farms and vineyards in the area.

There are so many sites that is overwhelming!!!

Thanks in advancw

Ciao!

Since you're interested in sheep in particular, let's start from there. I'd suggest the Val d'Orcia and the area around Pienza, since that area specializes in producing pecorino cheese, a cheese made from sheep's milk.

As far as horses and restaurant, I'd recommend Tuscany Equestrian right off the bat. The only thing is I don't believe they have other animals, just the horses. But they are surrounded by other farms, so it is likely you'll find some nearby.

Other options:
Podere Casale - has animals, restaurant, sheep - https://podereilcasale.com/en/contacts/
Podere Cacciamici - they have animals and bikes - https://www.cacciamici.it/azienda.it.php
La Bruciata - https://www.agriturismolabruciata.it/attivita/vacanza-per-famiglie.html

Let me know if you want more ideas.
Not in that area, for the live animals, I always suggest Agriturismo Montalbino - so maybe you could break up stay in 2 places?
