BBQ's with tables for dining 'al fresco' are provided along with convenient laundry facility. The house is just minutes from the centre of a tiny hilltop village rich in history and culture.

Both Anghiari and Monterchi boast a number of excellent restaurants and bars along with traditional weekly markets and specialty shops. All guests staying in the farmhouse are entitled to a tour of the castle by your warm hostesses Federica & Lilli.

The great granddaughters will often invite you to sample the estates wines and pre dinner drinks for large groups may be enjoyed [by arrangement] in this special cellar.

The property provides an idyllic setting for a relaxing vacation and is ideally suited to large family reunions or groups of friends with bambini exploring Tuscany & Umbria together. While there is ample space for time together, the apartments also offer complete privacy.
