A beautiful area with lots of nature and culture! Walks around Belvedere Right next to the loggia, by the gate to the court, youll find a sign post with a rough scheme of nearby walks or hikes. From Belvedere, various trails will take you through our forests up to the Pratomagno peaks or downhill to our nearby village Pulicciano and further down to Castelfranco or Pian di Sco`. Only the trails are man-made. The scenery you pass is untouched and wildly romantic nature. Barbecue and open fire Even though there are outdoor fire places at almost all our apartments, the use thereof during the summer months is strictly forbidden, owing to the high risk of forest fires. There is a barbecue grill on wheels, kept in the loggia and available for our guests. There is also a barbecue grill at the Casa Cipressi. Oil and wine Our fattoria offers you its own wine and, above all, our renowned first-class olive oil. At the reception loggia (between the big able and the little wall) you will find a little door. The key to it is hidden in the lantern hanging above the table (please always put the key back there for other guests to find it). In this little shed youll find white and red wine, oil as well as vinegar and „Vin Santo“, a sweet desert wine very typical for our area.
