Tired of city life, in 1996 we decided to live in the hearth of Crete Senesi. Immediately we have fallen in love with Molinello, with its Etruscan origins (and the nearby tumulus), its medieval mill (whose ruins are still visible nowadays), its age-old oak trees, and with the peacefullness and quietness that surround it. We have decided to share all this with our guests.
We live in a wing of the farm and we will be glad to offer their guests: swimming pool, green area, playground, washing-machine, wood oven, barbecue, mountain bike hire, organic vegetables and fruit of their own production…and their availability. We organize once a week a wine tasting course to explore the main tuscan DOC and DOCG and a cooking lesson. We usually propose our guests a weekly activities programme. Our winery is at guests’ disposal to relax and to taste a good glass of wine. We will propose you a weekly activities programme to discover the coulours and the tastes of crete senesi region and a free guided tour of Siena together with an official AGT Guide
At the Spas of Rapolano it is possible to take mud bath treatment, inhalations (from april to nevember), phisycal therapy, beauty treatment, massages (all year round). In summer the thermal swimming pools (which are open also nightly) are excellent to relax and for the wellbeing of body.
By request it is possible to visit the contiguous etruscan tomb “Tumulo del Molinello”, a particular travertine grave, which, with the others in the area, constitutes an interesting attraction.
