House:
If you are looking for a place to relax and get in touch with nature, walk or cycle, visit small villages and medieval castles of the Chianti region, this is the place for you. The house is situated at 600m above sea level, on the slopes of the Pratomagno mountain that separates the valley of the Arno from the Casentino. The rustic house is located in a strategic position, 30 km from Florence and Arezzo, and 40 km from Siena. There is a spectacular view over the valley and the pool. The house is about 5 minutes drive from Castelfranco di Sopra. It is the perfect place for those who are looking for peace and nature. The farm consists of a central house and 5 other buildings. The property features 5 hectares of garden, vineyard and olive and fruit trees. The farm produces high-quality olive oil, wine, vin santo, vinegar, fruit, jam and honey, all of which are sold on-site. There is an organic vegetable garden at the farm. Since about 1200, Belvedere has been a centre of agricultural activity, as evidenced by documents and equipment. The interior of the house is rustic and exudes a typical Tuscan atmosphere. The rooms in the house are interconnected by small stairs, consisting of three steps. From both the living room and the kitchen, you have access to the garden with garden furniture. The apartment is suitable for 4 adults and 1 child. There is an electric charging station for electric cars. 1 hour before arrival contact the landlord for directions on how to reach the holiday home

Tips from owner:
Lovely excursions are the cities of Arezzo, Anghiari, admire Bibbiena, Cortona, Poppi and Sansepolcro. A beautiful area with lots of nature and culture! Walks around Belvedere Right next to the loggia, by the gate to the court, you'll find a sign post with a rough scheme of nearby walks or hikes. From Belvedere, various trails will take you through our forests up to the Pratomagno peaks or downhill to our nearby village Pulicciano and further down to Castelfranco or Pian di Sco`. Only the trails are man-made. The scenery you pass is untouched and wildly romantic nature. Barbecue and open fire Even though there are outdoor fire places at almost all our apartments, the use thereof during the summer months is strictly forbidden, owing to the high risk of forest fires. There is a barbecue grill on wheels, kept in the loggia and available for our guests. There is also a barbecue grill at the Casa Cipressi. Oil and wine Our fattoria offers you its own wine and, above all, our renowned first-class olive oil. At the reception loggia (between the big able and the little wall) you will find a little door. The key to it is hidden in the lantern hanging above the table (please always put the key back there for other guests to find it). In this little shed you'll find white and red wine, oil as well as vinegar and „Vin Santo“, a sweet desert wine very typical for our area. Please note down what you are consuming on the notepad prepared for you. Your account will be settled upon your departure. Note: We do not offer payment by credit card or bank card – cash only. At E-bike rental (www.e-bike italia.it) you can rent electric bikes, perfect for a trip to Pratomagno at about 1400 meters above sea level or in the Chianti area. The bikes can be delivered directly at the holiday home. Ask the owner for more information.
