In the morning the sound of footsteps on the stone, a golden light that makes you want to bottle it and keep it with you. A walk in the woods which sorround the property amongst cypress, olives, tall oak and beech trees, the warm scent of rosemary, lemon grass, lavender and jasmine. Caledula, geraniums, roses, primroses and wild orchids not to mention bushes of broom and the deep yellow of sunflowers the marvellous tuscan landscape that brings back memories of a wistful time.
Listen under a clear blue sky or under the star filled night (away from the city lights yet just a short distance from the town of Anghiari) to the song of the gold finches, the cuckoos and the pheasants, to the murmuring of the little birds in their nests whilst in the surrounding grass roam indisturbed fallow deer, fox, porcupine and hare and you will inevitable be encompassed by sense of ease.
The sweetness of nature, the green hills, and clean air saturated with wonderful scents, the beautiful country churches and caastles will make you feel so at home that the problems and worries of everyday life will seem far away.
