at the exit “Firenze Certosa” take the
freeway to Siena; it is signed by blue signs
with written “Siena”and below “4 corsie”.



Drive this road ( approx one hour) till Siena.
The first exit-sign you find is “Siena Nord”.
Forget it.
Go straight on, driving this road ( it is like
a beltway called “tangenziale”, passing all
the exits you find and after “SienaSud”
you find a fork “Grosseto/Arezzo-Roma”.
Take Arezzo-Roma direction and drive this
road till its end and the exit “Siena Est”.
There leave the “tangenziale”and go
straight on crossing a roundabout with
the blue sign “Siena Due Ponti”.
Drive the last hundreds of meters and you
are in Due Ponti

Coming from South driving the A1

At the exit “Valdichiana” take the freeway to Siena and go straigth on (approx 30 min)
Passing a roundabout with a big building not finished yet on your right.
Here you find the blue sign “Siena Due Ponti”.
Drive the last hundreds of meters and you
are in Due Ponti.

Strada di Valdipugna, 2 - loc. S. Regina - 53100 Siena - tel - fax +39 0577 42379

The locality Due Ponti is a big traffic island with on your right
a few houses and shops: on your right, amongst the few buildings, you
can see a road ( named Strada di Pieve al Bozzone) with the sign “S.Regina”.
So turn on your right following this sign “S.Regina”, passing over a recent bridge
over the railway till you reach a harpin turn (the turn is on your right: on your left,
the trash boxes). On the wall, on your right the signs “S. Regina” and “Valdipugna”
Take the turn following these signs driving till the next fork where you find our black
sign “Frances' Lodge” ( the second one is on our gate).

Ring the bell on the right side, as our gate is always closed ( only our family and our guests have a gate opener).

If you are following your GPS, it probably gives you different directions ( not always the best directions); but be careful to digit in “Strada di Pieve al Bozzone” if not the GPS takes you through a gravel road.
If you are lost, be sure to be able to tell us where you are and we will meet you half -way.: try to arrive with the daylight, since at dark all is more difficult.
If you are planning to arrive driving another road ( not the A1) write to me and I'll suggest the road till here.

We are at N 43° 18 837
E 011° 21 825
