From the owner

The House has been completely restored respecting the natural elements of stone, terracotta and wooden beams of chestnut. The quiet and contact with nature will be the backdrop to your holidays. Thanks to an altitude of approximately 600 m. above sea level you can enjoy a climate never too hot, you can relax in the shade of an old chestnut maybe reading immersed in the silence of the countryside and enjoy the view of the mountains of the Apennines Tuscan. It is ideal also for those who prefer to visit the nearby towns of art museums and ancient churches. For those who choose the holiday as an opportunity to do sports can go horseback riding, playing golf, walking trails, fishing, windsurfing and sailing or take in the nearby Lake of Bilancino. A holiday in Tuscany is an opportunity not to give up anything.
