Il Mulino is a beautiful and historic farmhouse dating from the 17th century, and has been lovingly restored with both tradition and comfort in mind. Set in a wonderful location near the little village of Monterchi (near Arezzo) with 3 bedrooms - all en-suite, safe garden, orchard, new fenced pool, great facilities and surrounded by fantastic and unspoilt countryside. Along a slow running stream, Il Mulino (which means 'the mill') was an old water mill. The old mill stones have been maintained. In a great location for shoppers with easy access to Prada and other designer outlets.

A very high standard of accomodation: Il Mulino is a property with a very high standard of accommodation and facilities. It is managed directly by the owners. In case of any problems, the owners are close by to help. They are there to meet and greet you, show you around the property and help with any needs you have. The difference between a property managed by the owners and a property owned by someone living in another country is huge. Have you ever arrived after a long journey and found the most 'basic' of welcome packs? A half cleaned house? A semi clean pool? These are all things you won't find with us!! At Il Mulino the majority of our guests are repeat bookings. The enjoyment of your holiday is our number one priority. Stay with us to see the difference!!
