Farm Holiday vacation rentals in Tuscany near Rufina

This plot of land has been inhabited by peasants, animals and planted with vineyards and olive trees for a long time, and now it has been converted in its original magnificence again in order to discover some tastes, flavours and pleasant sensations. We have newly restored the lodgings of the old estate to open in the Sieve Valley the farmhouse, which has been keeping the relationship with the history of the farm and the local eno-gastronomic tradition. In order to carry on the contact with the surrounding nature, all the trimmings and the furniture have been realized using no-toxic and natural materials. Under the plants of our garden is possible to relax reading or tasting our products or simply taking a nap.

Under restoring is an orchard-garden with a wide range of ancient apple trees, some of which are on the point of extinction and there is also a cool fountain, lying in the middle of our garden; both stand for the heart and symbolize the emblem of our agritourism. To complete your stay in a comfortable way, you will find also a swimming pool and, lying on our solarium in stone you can benefit from the sun among the wooded hills in a landscape that captures the essence of Tuscany. Our lodgings have been painstakingly restored according the architectural features of this area, using natural materials, which can allow a pleasant stay also to disabled person.

APARTMENTS: Even though each apartment and room has its own individual style, they have been specifically designed with your comfort and suitability in mind. The apartments all offer a well-equipped kitchen with cooking-area, fridge, television, lounge area and elegantly appointed bathrooms. The bedrooms are furnished with double or two single beds, a bathroom en suite, mini bar and television. The swimming pool is at disposal of each guest and it is provided with dressing rooms and toilets with shower.

Our agritourism is made special by the details. The names of the rooms and of the apartments are not thought by chance: they are the names of the peasants who have lived in this estate and have characterized the milieu.

All the guests have access, in the main villa, to a Reading Room equipped with tourist information, magazines, books, board games and a billiard table. In addition the large Kitchen with its antique fireplace and wood-burning oven is available for use to anyone who wishes to try their hand at Tuscan cooking. The large Hall and the Tasting Cellar are ready to welcome anyone who desires to taste our own products, such as our Extra Virgin Oil and our Chianti Rufina wine.
