Agriturismo Apparita  

You can find us in the Upper Cecina Valley. The main cultural centre of the area is Volterra, an important historical Etruscan city, even rich in Roman, Medioeval and Renaissance remains.

The stony farmstead where we live is been recently restored respecting Tuscan architecture. The Podere l'Apparita is situated in front of S.Dalmazio, an ancient town 700m far. Here, the writer Carlo Cassola set his romance “Il taglio del bosco”.

 

Our farmstead is located in the district of Pomarance (province of Pisa), in the geographical zone of High Maremma Toscana, near the “Colline Metallifere”, rich in wonderful landscapes, beginning from woods (Berignone Wood - Tatti and Monterufoli Wood) to gullies, crags and geysers.

Our farmstead lays on a hill 350m high and it’s steeped in the quiet country nature.

The farmstead is surrounded by 60 hectars of land, and it produces organic wheat and olives.

We serve breakfast (B&B) and dinner (for half treatment) in the veranda with a good view on the 12th century Rocca Sillana, easily reached on foot. We serve meals of fine Tuscan cuisine and fresh organic garden produce (vegetarian food on request), we use only our organic extra-virgin olive oil in meals and tables.

 You take about one hour to get the most important Tuscan cities as like as Siena (50 km far), Florence ( 75 km), Pise ( 80 km), San Gimignano (45 km), or reach the seaside of Tyrrhenian Coast (40 km).
