THE FARMHOUSE AND THE BARN
We decided to keep the rustic look of the farmhouse and the barn that have luckily kept their original style until now.
The barn with its stone facade offers three large double rooms named after Gorse,
Iris,
and Jasmine,
(Ginestra, Iris and Gelsomino), all with private bathrooms and restored in the original Tuscan style, with wooden beams, terracotta floors, solid wood for doors, windows and the furniture. The ancient porch, with is likely to have been the place where tools were stored, is now the entrance to the rooms and the common hall. The porch is like a balcony opening on the valley and the fields of olive groves and fruit trees.
On the front of the barn a century-old oak shades the threshing floor, and other trees offer a cool relaxing area.
The first floor of the farmhouse offers two large rooms, one of which is a triple
room, all with private bathroom, called Sunrise and Sunset, opening on the
valley and on the city of Florence. On the ground floor of the house the large
chimney place decorates the breakfast room.
