Outside:

Stream runs alongside, having rockpools suitable for bathing, and waterfall.
Lower (pergola) level has paved pergola with table and chairs outside kitchen.

An adventurous and absorbing location for children, with stream, rockpools, hilly terrain, and abundant fauna and flora. However, please note that younger children will need supervision due to steep drops.

A friendly, tranquil rural location - cypresses and sunflowers, vineyards and olive groves. Beautiful walks, great views - just by walking up the hill from the house.
The mill is located on a quiet access road which leads up the hill to a handful of farm properties.

Located where the foothills of Alpe de la Luna meet the Upper Tiber Valley, it's a perfect base for walking, painting or cycling, and for enjoying the traditional life and cuisine of historic cities and hill towns. Local farm produce is abundant, and you can walk from molino to shops and bars in San Giustino, and to restaurants there or in the next valley or hill. The walled medieval town of Sansepolcro is 5km by road.
