The Agriturismo Mille e un Ulivo sits high in the slopes of the Montalbano hills. From 1500-1600, this region was the hunting preserve of the Medici family. Its attraction can be seen even today, where vineyards and olive groves nestle alongside wilder wooded tangles of holm-oaks and chestnuts. The farmhouse is located at the heart of the 'golden square' of Tuscany, with Florence (30 km), Pisa (50 km), Lucca (40 km) and Siena (80 km) all within easy reach. For those who love the sea, the Tyrrhenian coast lies 50 km to the west and is easily reached by an efficient highway. Montecatini, 15 km away, is famous for its thermal baths and health and beauty spas as well as for its golf course. Also nearby, Vinci (3 km), the birthplace of the famous Leonardo, you can visit the house in which he was born and a museum of his inventions.
