Mulino in Italian means Mill and this house used to be the mill of the estate. It still retains some of the original features including the two long stone walls which used to channel the water from a nearby stream towards the mill. Today these two walls form a natural enclosure for the pool.

Il Mulino is a building that has evolved over time, bit by bit. It began as a tower and then grew with the needs of each new generation, acquiring additions and extensions as the years went by. The result is a fairy tale house with plenty of nooks and crannies, doors and passageways and steps leading 'upstairs and downstairs and in my lady's chamber'.

On the ground floor is a large living and dining room with a fireplace and French windows leading onto a terrace covered in vines for al fresco meals. The well-equipped kitchen has a marble-topped table for informal breakfasts as well as an adjacent larder; as well as a single bedroom with shower, and a laundry room.

The first floor has three bedrooms and three bathrooms. A further double and single bedroom with bath are at the end of an outdoor passage.

The garden has many inviting corners for reading, writing or dozing in the shade, all fully equipped with outdoor furniture.

Please note: All Italian villa rentals are for 7 nights, beginning and ending on Saturdays, unless otherwise noted.
