Our
farm holiday is the unavoidable stopping place for all those people
who are fond of food-and-wine products because here they can taste
the simple dishes of the Tuscan tradition, always cooked with fresh
seasonal ingredients grown at the farm vegetable garden.
In the morning you can have home-made cakes and, on request, salami
and cold meats, cheese and fresh eggs for breakfast. In the evening
the guests who want to taste delicious dishes sit down to dinner
at the same table placed in winter in the specially provided restaurant
hall on the first floor, which is heated by a large wood-burning
fireplace. But in summer you can eat outdoor in a large garden full
of flowers, immersed in the delicate scent of roses and jasmines,
in nice and cheerful company of the lady owners of the farm.
