The
Cottage |
Casa
Valcella is entirely built in local sandstone with floors tiled
in cotto toscano and stone. All ceilings retained their original
wood beams and cotto flat tile covering, some of them even the
original boarding. Where, unfortunately, the original material
has gone lost all structures have been carefully replaced with
the same type of preexistent components.
There are three apartments in the cottage: Lo Scoiattolo (the
squirrel), la Ballerina and l'Istrice (the hedgehog). In the
front yard of the latter you will also find a wood oven (optimal
for your home baked pizzas) and several barbecues complete with
the necessary firewood.
Similarly built in stone, in perfect tuscan fashion, the other
cottage I Gemelli offers a large front porch covered with a
wood and cotto structure. The cottage is located slighltly up
higher from the other and about 150 ft away from it.
The 15 X 24 ft swimming pool, equipped with a solarium, is to
be found between the two cottages and is surrounded by a large
lawn where you will find umbrellas, sun beds and a playground
for the kids.
The cottage "I Gemelli" includes two perfectly identical
apartments, Il Ciliegio (the cherry tree) and il Ginepro (the
juniper) located one in front of the other, ideal for a couple
with one or two kids.
