Mulino, the Mill, is an independent house crafted from a converted and restored ancient water mill located near Montalcino. During the restoration, great care was taken to maintain the original structure while updating the villa to a level of complete modern comfort. The house is furnished with original high-end Tuscan furniture that reflects the beautiful combination of modern craftsmanship and historical ambience. Wood beamed ceilings, whitewashed walls, stone and cotto floors all contribute to the atmosphere of this quiet Tuscan haven.
The main floor of the villa features a spacious living and dining room with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen and a bathroom with shower. The first floor features a sitting room with fireplace, a study/TV room, a large bathroom with shower, and two queen bedrooms each with a bathroom with shower (one is private, one is en-suite). On the second floor, there is a queen bedroom and a bedroom with two single beds—perfect for children. Outdoors, a private porch awaits al fresco dining and gardens as well as an equipped pool area offer plenty of opportunity for relaxation. A pretty stream runs by the villa, adding even more charm to this already picturesque country retreat.
Mulino is near a prestigious winery where tours and tastings can be arranged. Horseback riding can also be done nearby.

What to do in Tuscany?
While visiting the famous wine producing town of Montalcino and the artistic jewel of Pienza, you will be fascinated by their charm and history. In 1555 Montalcino became the last bastion of the proud Sienese Republic before it succumbed to the Florentines and was absorbed into the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. This accounts for its imposing fortress and the wealth of superb paintings and sculptures that make its beautifully renovated museum such a remarkable attraction. Pienza was built between 1458 and 1462 at the behest of Enea Silvio Piccolomini, who decided to turn his hometown into a jewel of Renaissance architecture when he became Pope Pius II (hence the name Pienza).
While other parts of Tuscany have developed industries that have done much for the economy but little for the landscape, the Crete Senesi area and the neighboring Val d'Orcia have largely remained true to their early agricultural vocation. Today this means local products of outstanding quality, made with traditional methods and skills that are handed down from father to son. The best-known of these are doubtless Montalcino's distinguished Brunello red wine and the Vino Nobile of Montepulciano, both of which are the perfect complement to dishes based on the wild game of the area: pheasant, quail, hare, and wild boar. Likewise, the Pecorino cheeses made with ewe's milk from the Pienza pastures are now in great demand.
