| | Facilities within the Property |
 Today, the homestead the surrounding farmhouses, and the barns can accomodate people that never tire of country, of the meadows, or sunshine, of the nightingales and crickets. A pause after lunch in the brooms and lemon tree gardens, a holiday spent by the swimming pool in the middle of vineyard, children who play with cats and adults who linger with a glass of good wine...Granny Sestilia's farm is once again alive! |
 Borgo San Benedetto offers two swimmingpools, one tennis court, the park of 4 hectares enriched by bouganville and lemon trees, a big private parking and there is a common laundry room.
The property is child friendly: basketball net, ping pong and a playground are available for children. |
 Trattoria Casa Masi: Nearly all the houses were restored for our guests, except one that was not properly a "house" but a loft, a stable, a wine cellar, an oil mill, a room for olives and Vinsanto grapes. Today the old Granny Sestilia's wine cellar is Casa Masi, with the old walls built by expert hands and with the old round arches that connect the wine cellar to the oil mill.
First of all Casa Masi is a home and not only a "trattoria", with its many farm objects pulled down from the shelves and the attic, which wink among the colours and the scent of "panzanelle". Here Luciana and Alessandro Masi present the specialities of their family tradition; Mommy and Granny's recipes take you back to childhood tastes and scents. Only fresh ingredients of the region are used to create the"a la carte" menu that changes according to the season; in Autumn the real protagonist is white truffle new olive oil and fresh olives, liver with turnips.In the Spring you can taste lamb and artichokes, and in the Summer guinea-hen and mushrooms, home-made bread and home-made cakes. The wine list is personally selected by Alessandro: he proposes about 150 types of wine among the best ones produced exclusively in Tuscany. |
