Exterior Description

(700 hectares)This working 18th century farm encompasses 700 hectares of vineyards, olive groves, orchards, woods, and a game hunting reserve. Three of the estate's original buildings have been restored and converted into rental accommodations.

The villa rental features terracotta floors, rustic furnishings, and colorful fabrics. There is a fenced garden with a barbecue, outdoor furniture, and a swimming pool (8m x 4m). The garden is accessible via the first floor at the rear of the house and is surrounded by olive trees and beautiful views of the Valdisieve.
