Casa Fermentini
Villa exterior:The house was restored in 1998, carefully retaining the typical Tuscan features of wood beamed ceilings, cotto floors and whitewashed walls. To the front of the house is a garden with hedges and olive trees, leading to a swimming pool (12 x 6m), also surrounded by olive trees. Behind the house are the wine cellars and a separate parking area for guests. Entrance to the house is through a private courtyard, furnished for dining outdoors. To one side of this and also accessed through the courtyard is a separate apartment, Casa del Guardia, which can sleep 4 – 6 additional guests. This apartment can only be booked together with the main house and by the same group of guests.
Villa interior:Both the main house and the apartment are very light and spacious, impeccably furnished with several antique pieces, which blend in with the typical Tuscan ambience. Amenities include satellite television, stereo with CD and telephone and fax in the main house, and mosquito nets on the windows. Gas and firewood are payable on consumption during the winter season, and there is a baby cot available.
