This charming Tuscan farmhouse is located on a family farm in the Val di Cecina, surrounded by beautiful hill views. Built in 1883, the farmhouse has been lovingly renovated to retain historic features while adding modern comforts. It’s a peaceful home-from-home perfect for a large family group – children will love the play area and swimming pool. The garden is filled with rosemary, cypress, and oak trees, and features a delightful gazebo for dining outside – there’s a stone barbecue to cook on. If you don’t fancy cooking, the home-owner has a restaurant just 600 metres away.
