The agriturismo

A XI century Tuscan Castle in the beautiful Florentine hills. The farmhouse is run by a young Italian couple and it is finely restored and well equipped with three Pools, SPA Sauna & Jacuzzi, two BAR, one Tuscan Restaurant ( Selection " à la Carte " )  and private lovely gardens for outside dining. 2km to shops ( Designer Outlet Village , bank, restaurant etc. ). Just 20 km to Florence.

The accommodation

The structure has undergone a careful and complex conservative restoration carried out in a manner faithful to the original plan and is located on the top of a rocky cliff overlooking the valley below surrounded by a whole series of stone terraces that together with the architectural design of the property re-propose the idea of a Medieval Castelletto (as it was, moreover, in its time).

 

The whole is surrounded by a private, fenced-in park of oak and cypress trees that blends with recurring green spaces. Here are home to three striking pools carved inside the rock in front of the tower's main entrance. Both pools are accessible and usable free of charge during most of the Year. They remain in any case visible for scenic and image purposes, all year round, with LED night lighting and the possibility of using the smaller circular pool that has conditioned heating, whirlpool and professional fountain for cervical massage.

 

The Castelluccio has a large reception room with a sitting area and fireplace (free WI FI connection), three dining rooms and charming rooms "equipped with furnishings consistent with the traditional colonial style revisited by the owners under the banner of a definitely creative and personal taste" (source Press "the best Villas and Mansions in Tuscany")

 

Guests are offered breakfast and dinner service ( A la Carte Selection ) allowing them to enjoy a cuisine in line with the Tuscan culinary tradition and especially Mugello with revisited typical dishes and wide assortment of local and National wines.

 

The service is particularly accurate, available to the specific needs of the customer (with attention to the diet of the little ones) and consistently in line with the basic principles and criteria of the best local "Slow Food" tradition (only express dishes of the best Tuscan gastronomic tradition).

 

The Castelluccio has Standard, Superior and Suite type rooms ( with Jacuzzi, with mini swimming pool in the room or with private access to the SPA of the farm ) with private bathroom inside equipped with every service and comfort (remote control air conditioning, mini bar, LCD color TV with digital terrestrial and predisposition Slot "pay per view", hair dryer, toilet set with aromatic detergents and scented essences).

 

" SPA - Sauna & Jacuzzi ".

Inside the recently renovated colonial building called "Casa del Pastore" and located downstream of the agritourism complex, just a few minutes from all tourist accommodations , are the premises of the brand new "SPA - Sauna & Jacuzzi".

The new environment dedicated to the Relaxation of the body and mind, thanks to the benefits of heat, massage and water, is equipped with mini Technical Pool with professional whirlpool and Gayser jet functions, professional Finnish Sauna, Emotional Shower ( aromatherapy, chromotherapy, Tropical shower, Blade and Scottish Shower ), Salt Wall and self massaging water bed.
