The agriturismo
The farmhouse, built in the mid 1800s, stands on a hillock in Bolognino, overlooking the Tiber Valley. In 2008 it was completely renovated, respecting the original stone structure and the most advanced solutions for energy saving.
The farm is spread over 12 hectares in a beautiful hilly area, is responsible for the cultivation of olive trees, vines, forage, vegetables, the production of extra virgin olive oil and the breeding of horses and donkeys.
The farmhouse is surrounded by a large garden, available to guests, and by the land of the farm. The swimming pool is situated on the highest point of the hillock and enjoys a splendid view over the Tiber valley and the gullies, from Monte Soratte to Monte Amiata.
