Casa Newton TUSCANY, ITALY


In the golden folds of the Val d’Orcia, where undulating hills meet vineyards and cypress- lined lanes, a new kind of Tuscan retreat is quietly opening its doors. Casa Newton, set just outside the Renaissance town of Pienza, offers more than a place to stay — it provides a sense of belonging, where the rhythm of rural life is honoured. At first glance, the house seems like it’s always


looked exactly as it does today — a weathered villa painted a rich, deep red, stone outbuildings and terraces that catch the last of the day’s light. But look closer and you’ll find an extraordinary transformation. Three years in the making, Casa Newton has been carefully restored and reimagined, guided by a concept envisioned by Antonie Bertherat-Kioes and realised with the collaboration of Archiloop studio and Luciano Giubbilei. Together, they’ve breathed new life into a traditional farmhouse, layering modern craftsmanship with centuries-old character. Across nine suites in the main villa plus two


panoramic garden suites in the Casa Piccola, no corner is without intention. Handmade ceramics,


bespoke textiles and contemporary art fill the spaces, creating a visual dialogue with the natural beauty outside. It’s a place where the design feels effortless. Life at Casa Newton moves at a gentle pace.


Mornings might begin with a bike ride along the gravel trails made famous by the Eroica vintage cycle rally, followed by a winery tour in the foothills near Montalcino or Montepulciano. Guests are invited to taste pecorino di Pienza at its source, explore the thriving agricultural scene or take part in seasonal rituals such as truffle-hunting in the autumn woodlands. Cooking classes led by Casa Newton’s in-house chefs provide insight into regional traditions and recipes, while the peaceful grounds, with their kitchen garden and wildlife- friendly landscaping, invite unhurried afternoons. Evenings unfold around open fires or with a glass of natural wine from the estate’s own Fabbrica Pienza vineyard, as the light softens over the hills. Casa Newton is not about spectacle, but rather


simplicity done exceptionally well — a stay shaped by nature, craftsmanship and a deep sense of place.
