Holiday Apartment in Asciano, Nr. Siena, Tuscany, Italy
Medieval Mill in the heart of Crete Senesi
Organic Farmhouse 25 km from Siena
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)

|
Tired of city life, in 1996 we decided to live in the heart of Crete Senesi. Immediately we have fallen in love with Molinello, with its Etruscan origins (and the nearby tumulus), its medieval mill (whose ruins are still visible nowadays), its age-old oak trees, and with the peacefullness and quietness that surround it. We have decided to share all this with our guests. At guests’ disposal 5 apartments and one double bedroom with private bathroom, pool, wine tasting courses and a winery where you can taste a glass of good wine, a weekly programme of activities organized together with other farms and the Museums of Crete Senesi region.

Further details
A trip through the Crete Senesi means putting your energies back into equilibrium.
A trip to the Crete Senesi has the flavour of a daydream with your feet placed firmly on the ground, because “anatomically” they are the impalpable soul of a fascinating body, sometimes expressed in the sculpted forms of a Greek statue, sometimes in the curves of a tempting siren.
The Crete Senesi, then, as a voyage of the soul, an itinerary of discovery to be followed in the same spirit as the Grand Tour, without seeking destinations that are as mystical as they are useless. Sailing through the earth waves of the Crete Senesi, each of us finds places that “speak” with the breath of the wind and the magic of unpredictable lights.
There are no icons such as piazzas, cathedrals or castles that identify this territory. Only intimate corners like that cypress, that old smallholding, the curve of that dirt road, the window of that bed & breakfast. Or moments linked to powerful sensations such as the smell of sheep’s-milk cheese pervading a little grocery, the relaxing warmth of spa waters, the mystical simplicity of a small Romanesque parish church.
The landscape of the Crete Senesi is a triumph of essentialness and harmony, a timeless image, a picture that blends the forms of an Etruscan graffito and a sign of modern art. It is a harmony that gets inside you and has the power to bring your energies back into balance: emotions and sensations transform and dilate in the calm of space.
