Description of the Farmhouse::
The farmhouse and the adjoining building, 20 m away, have been
restored throughout in character with Umbrian tradition, retaining the
original stone walls, wooden beams and the red cotto tiles of Tuscany
for the roof and floors. They have been divided into six apartments of
different sizes, each with private access and separated from an
independent apartment, reserved for the owners. All apartments have
independent heating, a fridge and a TV and are carefully
furnished using some antiques from the region. Garden furniture and a
large covered patio with barbecue and a swimming pool (6x12 m) are
available. Sports facilities in the locality include beaches, tennis and
sailing at 5 km, horse riding at 2 km and bicycles.
