Further details indoors:

- At ground-level, with south-facing views of the property's hilly 6-hectare forest and stream, the 90sq.meter property contains 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Bedroom 1 boasts a king-size bed and ensuite bathroom, with access to the outside and a day-bed which can sleep a child if necessary. Bedroom 2 contains a queen-size bed, large French doors opening onto the forested hillside and a shower-room across the hall.

- Should you get bored of the region's world-famous cuisine, your kitchen is fully-equipped with cookware, tableware and seating for eight people.
- The house's traditional Tuscan construction - along with fans in every room and a plug-in air-con unit downstairs - keep the house cool and breezy. During colder months, the property is warmed by centrally-heated radiators and a child-friendly raised wood-burning fireplace.

Further details outdoors:
- We overlook a wooded valley, where locals hunt truffles in the fall. In the evening, you will sometimes hear the wild boar snorting in the forest below us. The property is safely fenced and gated, but if you open the gates, you are free to walk the wooded paths down to a creek at the bottom of the small valley. Completely charming.
- Linen, bath-towels and a hair dryer are included to make your stay more enjoyable. Please bring your own pool/beach towels for use outside the house.
