On the estate it is possible to find the most characteristic of Tuscan scenery: olive groves and vineyards surround the villa and it is also possible to enjoy magnificent walks in the ancient oak and holm oak woods leading down to the lake where roe deer and fallow deer love to linger. If you walk into the floor of the valley there are creeks and small waterfalls formed by the streams that feed into the property. Inside the estate there are three separate villas, five self-contained apartments and the possibility of stopping in one of six junior suites which are located in the main villa and are all facing onto the courtyard of the former convent. In the main villa, a former convent dating from the twelfth century, there is a breakfast room where pre-booked breakfasts are served based on milk, coffee, cappuccino, fruit juice, cheese and sliced cold meats, brioches, pastries and other cakes. If the guests prefer, breakfast can also be served directly to their room, where they can enjoy perfect privacy. Possibility of connecting to the Internet at the reception.
