In the Tuscan countryside, not far from Arezzo, this Agriturismo is made up of several restored buildings for a total of 16 bedrooms, 16 bathrooms, a restaurant and a wellness center. The surrounding 23 ha of land houses 300 olive trees (producing up to 150 liters of oil per year), a chestnut grove, ample open surfaces to relax and an Infinity pool. The estate is energetically independent (95%) thanks to solar panels and firewood boiler.
The nearby village (3km; 5') offers a few services (pharmacy, restaurants) but to have a full selection one must move to Arezzo (15km; 20') where there are supermarkets, banks and post offices if needed. The other art cities of Tuscany (Florence, Siena, Montepulciano, San Gimignano) can all be reached in less than two hours.
The closest airport is Perugia (81km; 1h 5') but the terminals in Florence, Pisa, Bologna and Rome are equally easy to reach.
