Surroundings

A stretch of verdant hills

The perfect design of nature and the benefits of human crafts. The wavy line contouring the green shades of the land gives form to a pastoral landscape evoking a certain kind of sweet allure. Something about this landscape makes people feel instantly safe and comfortable, it's inviting to the point that visitors describe it as having a 'vague sense of familiarity'.

It doesn't matter how many times you come to this verdant region, Tuscany will always take you in with open arms. The patches of woodland and trees bring shade and attract animal and bird life, for an even more bucolic scenery.

Needless to say, rest and calm are the two passwords around here, where the pace of life is more organic and in line with the seasonal rhythm.
