The agriturismo
In the beautiful Val di Chiana, near Cortona, Arezzo, Lucignano, the farmhouse stands at the center of a 50-hectare farm.
The typical stone farmhouse from the late 1700s has been renovated respecting the original style: it has so well preserved its old charm that it was chosen as the set for the RAI film "Per una notte d'amore."
The farm produces durum wheat, corn and sunflowers. In addition to the wine produced in the small vineyard, the flagship of the farm is theolive grove with various cultivars such as moraiolo and leccino; theoil produced at the 5 Colli di Lucignano cooperative oil mill boasts European IGP certification. The agriturismo offers tastings of wine, oil, cheeses, cured meats and herbal teas.
Gabriele, the owner, is also a herbalist and pharmacist.
The accommodation
The typical Tuscan farmhouse, nestled in the countryside near Cortona, Arezzo and the medieval towns of Val di Chiana, is still furnished with the family's original antique furniture.

It is possible to book theentire villa for exclusive use by groups and families, or just the rooms with breakfast.

Also available is a typical Tuscan hall for events (weddings, graduation parties, baptisms, communions, etc.) for about 40 people. The latter will also be for the exclusive use of those who book the entire villa.
