About
“The B&B started from an idea of Filippo, and it turned into reality in December 2014. We fell in love with this apartment and with the feel that it transmitted to us right away. We transformed it into a small jewel, without limiting its majesty and importance, through a careful renovation and a simple but welcoming design. The idea of hosting people from all parts of the world has always fascinated me, and being able to let them discover the wonder of Siena has become our mission ! “
Meet
Filippo & Camilla
Filippo, class of ’79, Sienese doc, graduate in archaeology, twin brother of Tommaso, husband of Camilla and father of Calliope and Achille. Brought up at the Alberino and in the Nobile Contrada del Bruco. Passionate lover of my city and its incredible traditions. A lifelong sportsman, I follow football, but more so fantasy football for decades now. Thanks to Camilla I started skiing and horse riding, discovering a crazy world. Horses have become my passion and in my Contrada I have played the role of barbarian.
I don’t like wasting time, I prefer a ride to a walk, I prefer to keep quiet rather than talk about nothing.
Camilla, mother of Calliope and Achille, wife of Cini, law graduate, citizen of the wonderful Siena. Born and raised in pietra serena, first of 3 brothers of a large and noisy extended family. “Tartuchina” (Contrada of Tartuca) like most of the women of home. My greatest passions are horses, which I love unconditionally, boxers as great companions in life, the mountains and their tranquillity, the colour green and everything that makes me laugh. I couldn’t stop travelling and feeling free, meeting people who can tell me something, eat (especially pasta!!) and enjoy every moment of what surrounds me. The only thing I hate is time passing too quickly.
