For those who love spa resorts, it is possible to pass pleasant moments in the 37° C warm waters and enjoy beauty treatments at the Terme di Casciana spas (we've made an agreement with them for our guests).
It is possible to start from the farm on foot or with the mountain bike for trecking excursions or to ride on horseback in the beautiful nature.

For children is available a real sandy playground, whereas sport fans can play tennis, basket or boccia on the sports field. It is possible to get relaxed in the beautiful swimming pool, heated and purified with a modern salt and UV-ray purification plant (without any use of chlorine and absolutely safe from the hygienic, bacterial and epidermic point of view) with a charming whirlpool angle.
The farm is furthermore equipped with splendid stables with wooden chestnut beams, airy roof according to the Tuscan tradition... your horses will find a comfortable accommodation inside of the boxes that are available.

Next to the pool is situated the laboratory for the production and tasting of our products, such as extra-vergin olive oil, wine, preserves, jam. The barbecue and wood oven will be at your complete disposal for grilling meat or fish or to bake your own fresh bread and pizza.  During the months of October, November and December, guests can live the tradition together with the manual olive picking and the subsequent pressing, according to our antique methods: cold and slow pressing at about 400 atm, oil separation through natural decantation. Thanks to these procedures we obtain our Oro di Toscana, an oil of very low acidity, intense taste and colour.
