Vicchio Vacation Rental cottage

THE ESTABLISHMENT: Great attention was given to the original antique structure throughout the restoration making it possible to maintain the building’s unique quality and characteristics. The complex is composed of the Villa, the family quarters, the romantic La Casina, a wooden structure situated near the main building, and the La Fattoria just behind that.The estate was once the economic centre of the area: it had an oil mill where peasants brought olives to be ground, as well as a carpenter’s shop, a vat-room and a wine-cellar where the ancient entrance for carts still stands.The accurate renovation of the ground floor of the Fattoria has equipped the structure with two huge Sale furnished with fine Tuscan period pieces.The sand stone steps that lead to the first floor take us to 3 Apartments (Pendolino, Leccino, Frantoio) and an adjoining laundry room that provides every convenience. The run of a fabulous park with aage old Cedars of Lebanon, Sequoias and an enormous century old Holm Oak.

THE HALLS: The Mugello hillside offers a particularly enchanting backdrop for Weddings and Special Events. The Fattoria (on the ground floor) once held a Tinaia (vat-room), a Frantoio (oil mill), and Falegnameria (carpenter’s shop); today after a thorough renovation, one side of the floor holds two huge halls complete with typical Tuscan beamed ceilings, antique Tuscan furniture and other period pieces, an enormous sand stone fireplace, as well as a professional-style kitchen, which make it perfect for catered events, and two bathrooms.The other side of the floor holds the Vecchio Frantoio hall. In this fully renovated room we can still admire age old stone presses for crushing olives.This particularly characteristic room is ideal for unsophisticated Buffet-style events.The greater Saloni, Vecchio Frantoio and the Park are available for private parties and events.
