Descripciòn
Three comfortable apartments in a small, tranquil, green valley at the foot of Monte Giovi, in the heart of the Mugello region, about 40 km from Florence. The house sits at the center of a small family farm producing olive oil, cured meats, marmalades, fruits, vegetables, massage and skin oils, and herbalist products with strictly artisanal methods.
Hens, donkeys, goats, pigs and rabbits are also raised here naturally. The property offers beautiful views of the Mugello valley. It was completely renovated in 2004 and divided into three apartments, each with its own independent entrance and furnished in a simple, comfortable style.
In front of the house is a large, fenced-in lawn with pool, shaded patios, barbecue and ping pong table. Within just a few kilometres it is possible to visit small churches, the characterisic villages where famous artists Giotto and Beato Angelico were born, and museums devoted to peasant culture, ancient art and the area's traditional crafts.
