Enrico Cipolletta and Angela Silla were general manager and sales & marketing manager of large luxury hotels until they opted for the simple and genuine pleasure of changing their lives, by switching to the rhythms of the Tuscan countryside. Today their new life is Locanda la Pieve, near Saturnia SPA, in Semproniano, Maremma to be precise.
They bought this place deep in lite heart of nature and transformed it into an eight-room treasure, with a cosy yet sophisticated atmosphere.
Almost “another world”.
Traditional cuisine has always been, and always will be, one of the Locanda’s strengths. The atmosphere of a family meal blends with old-world ambience at the table as you feast on fresh pasta, game, cheeses, honey and sweets from the Maremma. Breakfast without daily alarm clock; relish genuine dishes as you pass the day in harmony with your biorhythms.
Morning brekafst? Moments of sheer bliss to be savoured along, with the tranquil countryside, in the restaurant and on the flowered terrace. Apart from its flavours, the Maremma is also reflected in the atmospheric colours and styles.
The rooms, which are all different – each has its own name – boast all modern comforts, which blend harmoniously with the locai furnishings and details.
The surrounding areas are graced by the Terme di Saturnia, the natural thermal bath, or trips can be organized to the Wild Animal Recovery Centre which takes in wounded animals from all over Italy, to the Bosco dei Rocconi WWF Oasis, or to the Fauna Park in Monte Labro. Don’t miss the “tuff-stone towns” Sovana, Sorano and Pitigliano, or Monte¬merano, Rocchetto di Fazio, Roccalbegna, Santa Fiora and Amiata, the mountain beloved of Bud¬dhists.
Maremma a place to stay, a place to discovery, a place to love.
The motto of Enrico and Angela is “slow life”, they welcome you!

If you are Italy and in Tuscany and pass by the famous spa of Saturnia why not lengthen your journey by only 9 kilometres and visit the medieval village of Semproniano. In the historical centre of the village you will find the delightful and charming hotel with only 8 rooms it’s Locanda La Pieve.
Particular attention is given to hospitality and details in this family run hotel. Each of the 8 rooms is different in colour and décor, but all have a private bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, television, telephone and safe.
Furnishings, colours and details reminds one of the Tuscan tradition and the territory of “Maremma” to which the Locanda La Pieve belongs.
Hospitality, good food, relaxation and above all no stress are the characteristics of this happy island. Nature in this part of theworld reigns supreme: plants, flowers, wild orchids,birds, wild animals, starry skies and colours and perfumes all to
be discovered.
The Wild Animals Rescue Centre where injured animals from all over Italy arrive, the WWF oasis at Bosco dei Rocconi and the Monte Labbro Natural Park.
Furthermore it is possible to visit the volcanic-rock towns of Sovana, Sorano and Pitigliano. Three charming townships that seem to come straight from a fable book. And then Montemerano, Rocchette di Fazio, Roccalbegna, Santa Fiora and Amiata,
the mountain loved by the Buddhists who consider it magical and spiritual.
Let’s not forget another of life’s pleasures, good food,which cannot go missing in such a pleasant context.
In the morning, breakfast with genuine traditional flavours, cakes and jams, fresh bread and flavours of times gone by, are served inside the dining room where it can be enjoyed without haste or, weather permitting on the garden terrace.
Then if you wish to savour a pleasant dinner, you can choose from a variety of traditional Tuscan dishes, updated with competence and simplicity, together with a good glass of “Maremma” red wine.
