The complex is composed by the Villa, La Fattoria (the Farmhouse) and by a romantic Casina (Little Wood House) deep in the green of the centuries old trees of the park (about 4800 sq yd). All around there are vineyards and olive trees.
The farmhouse is located on an expansive XVII century farm in the beautiful Tuscany countryside of Mugello. Mugello is famous as birthplace of Medici family, merchants and rulers of Tuscany, from XIV to XVI centuries. The farm is situated in the Vicchio area (birthplace of Giotto, Cimabue and Beato Angelico) next to the Appennini Mountains. Florence is only 35 Km away from the farm and is linked by panoramic roads such as the Wine Road of Chianti Rufina and Pomino. There is also a train service to Florence Central Station (Santa Maria Novella) in less than one hour, making the farmhouse an excellent base for exploring Tuscany.

At the ground floor there were an old carpenter, a tinaia and an oil-press in stone for olive oil production (a part still exists); today, after the renovation, there are 2 halls with ceilings to times, fireplace in stone, 2 baths, kitchen. The furniture and pictures are original. The Halls are available upon request for banquets and convention.
