THE HOUSE
The history of this typical farmhouse goes back to
the 16th century, when is was used as a refreshment point for walkers and
pilgrims. Today its part of a farm estate producing wine, olive oil and fruit (for
sale), and with its restoration it has been divided into five simply furnished apartments
(with satellite TV and phone). The spacious grounds are very well-kept and offer several
spaces with gazebos and tables for al fresco dining. On one terrace, with panoramic views
over the surroundings, theres the swimming pool (15/5-30/9). The position between
Siena and Arezzo, at ca. 3 km from the medieval village Serre di Rapolano (basic shops),
makes it ideal for day trips to Siena (30 km) and Florence (90 km), but also to charming
landscapes such as the Chianti and Crete hills, and characteristic villages, for example
Chiusi or Cortona, both with Etruscan museum. At Rapolano Terme one can use the thermal
spas (5 km). In the immediate surroundings it is possible to follow partly marked paths on
foot or mountain bike (provided) through unspoiled nature.
