From the owner

Forno House is located in a historic 15th century building restored in 2010 conserving its original structure and design. It features a living room with a fireplace, kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private garden with table, chairs, sun umbrella and a stunning view on the Chianti hills. All rooms have air conditioning, central heating, a free broadband WiFi Internet connection and TV; in the bathrooms air dryers and organic refillable soaps and shampoo are available for our guests. The apartment is at the ground and first floor. The housing estate includes many common areas: the historical olive mill and wine cellar now used as a living room, the courtyard with the well, the antic oven for the bread and now for pizza but above all a unique natural swimming pool without any chemical because the water is purified by water plants. All the estate is certified green building and it is surrounded by six hectares of land in which olive trees and grape vines are organically cultivated; our products, EVO oil, wine and honey, are available for the sale. We organize many activities for our guests: cooking and pasta class with a Tuscan chef, wine and oil tasting with a professional sommelier, chef service in your apartment, pizza night, many kinds of massages: relaxing, decontracturing and craniosacral massages, as well as shiatsu treatments, truffle hunting, hot air ballon flight, electric bike tour and donkey trekking for the children.

There is a private unguarded parking free of charge.

The cleaning service at the end of the stay is included in the rate.

Response from the owner
Dear Jonathan, thanks for your kind review! The position of Il Paluffo is ideal to visit the sourrouding area, we are a short drive distance from cozy medieval villages like San Gimignano and Certaldo and from the Chianti area. And you are right: the relaxing atmophere of our natural pool with its spectacular view on the Tuscan valley is perfect to spend a lazy day! So, Il Paluffo is waiting for your return soon..
