Description
Located on a gently rolling hill in the heart of Tuscany, at just 5 minutes from Empoli, between Florence, Pisa and Siena, this holiday farmhouse is part of a 17th century wine estate, which produces an excellent Chianti wine, Vin Santo dessert wine and a fragrant olive oil. The property consists of three farmhouses: one where the owners live, the nearby Casale La Colonica with reception, wine shop and on the first floor three holiday flats, and at 300 m Casale del Torrino, near the swimming pool (12x6 m, open May-September) with 4 flats, 2 on the ground floor and 2 on the first one. Each apartment is furnished in the typical Tuscan style and has its own private space in the garden. Available to guests are also a barbecue, car park and wine and olive oil tasting.
