Fioretto: Presentation
Gentili clienti,
‘Fioretto’ is a typical rural Tuscany house in
North Tuscany, located on the top of a hill (450 m) and on the feet of Appennino
Toscoemiliano mountains. Its favourable position provides a splendid view over
the valley of Nievole and
on the surrounding hills and mountains.
The farm house is in the middle of an olive grove with scattered fruit
trees ( 2 hectares) and all these are encircled from a dense forest (chestnut
and oak trees, pines). It's a very quiet and calm place in nature,
ideal for a relaxing weekend stay or longer vacation.
From the gates of ‘Fioretto’ you can reach immediately the forest
and if you are lucky walking the paths you can meet a wild boar or a deer
or you could pick up some mushrooms and chestnuts. You can also enjoy all
this with a mountain bike.
Our zone in particular is famous for the mushrooms and the wild boar hunting
and of course the high quality extra virgin olive oil of North Tuscany, which
we produce as well.
The closest villages are Massa and Cozzile (two small medieval
villages) which are between 'Fioretto' and the city of Montecatini Terme (historical
famous bath city). Practically we are between Florence (60km)
and Pisa (65km), two of most known Tuscany cities even if there
are more, not less interesting like Lucca (30km), Volterra (90km)
or San Gimignano (106km),
Cinque Terre (115km) while Siena (120km)
deserves without a fail a visit. Very close is also Collodi (14km)
the homeland of Pinocchio (museum of Pinocchio) and the charming gardens of.. Villa
Garzon, the beautiful thermal caves (underground natural rooms with
different steam temperature for relax offering an unique experience ) of Monsummano (15km)
and Vinci (26km) the homeland of Leonardo Da Vinci. So it
could be a nice idea to use our farmhouse as a base to excursions around Tuscany
and then rest in our relaxing place in the nature.
The closest beach is about an hour by car and there are a lot of them between
Pisa and Viareggio (60km) even if all west coast Tuscany is a huge beach with
less or more known summer resorts like Viareggio and Forte
dei Marmi (70km).
For winter and the winter sport lovers Abetone (55km) propose
all the relative facilities as one of the most important winter resorts of
Italy.
Around the house there are three small apartments recently restructured and
furnished traditionally where before was a barn and a deposit of agricultural
machineries. One of them can accommodate 2 persons, the second 3 persons and
the third 4 persons .
