Holiday Home/Apartment - 2 persons - Via di Faltognano - 50059 - Vinci

Romantic holiday on an ecological agriturismo with 9 hectares of land, a forest and two wild streams, in a 16th-century country house, both holiday apartments with their own garden The country house is located in Vinci in the hills of the Montalbano mountain chain, in the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci. It is surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. The typically Tuscan country house made of stone, whose origins go back to the year 1500, was completely restored with a great deal of dedication, in order to preserve its authenticity. It is divided into two independent holiday apartments, separated from each other by two rooms used as a reception. The holiday apartments are accessible from opposite sides of a forecourt. The house affords wide panoramic views over San Miniato and the hills covered with olive groves and vineyards. Where there was once a mill race used as a water source for powering the mill, the pool for communal use is now being built. The site is completely fenced in. From the automatic entrance gate to the site, a path leads to the forecourt in front of the country house. The forecourt provides a communal area with a pergola and a table tennis table, as well as parking spaces for the holiday guests. The words ‘wildly romantic’ describe this property perfectly. The owner of the organic farm lives in a historic mill at the confluence of two wild streams. Around 9 hectares of forest and land for cultivating organic olive oil and wine surround the property and can be explored by guests. The property represents an ideal starting point for ecotourism and for all those who would like to visit Florence and the most beautiful Tuscan cities, before returning to the beautiful and tranquil setting of the country house in the evening. The whole area is steeped in history: you can visit, free of charge, the house where Leonardo da Vinci was born, as well as the “Museo Leonardiano” (Leonardo da Vinci Museum).
