Great attention was given to the original antique structure throughout the restoration making it possible to maintain the building’s unique quality and characteristics.
The complex is composed of the Villa Padronale, the family quarters, the romantic La Casina, an early 20th century wooden structure situated near the main building, and the La Fattoria just behind that. The estate was once the economic centre of the area: it had an oil mill where peasants brought olives to be ground, as well as a carpenter’s shop, a vat-room and a wine-cellar where the ancient entrance for carts still stands.
The accurate renovation of the ground floor of the Fattoria has equipped the structure with two huge Halls furnished with fine Tuscan period pieces. These halls are available upon request for special events. In the Vecchio Frantoio, another Hall, adorned with ancient stone presses, is also available. The sand stone steps that lead to the first floor take us to 3 Apartments (Pendolino, Leccino, Frantoio) and an adjoining laundry room that provides every convenience.
The Fattoria I Ricci Agriturismo also offers its guests the run of a fabulous park with age old Cedars of Lebanon, Sequoias and an enormous century old Holm oak. Wrought iron tables and chairs adorn the park and make eating outdoors a pleasure. Barbequing is also an alternative.
And for those special moments of leisure and pleasure we can enjoy the magnificent sand stone swimming pool with its wonderful view of the valley. The Agriturismo also includes a small playground for younger children. All around, for a far as the eye can see, a luxuriant countryside captures our attention.
There are no distractions to keep us from immersing ourselves completely in the serenity that nature and this splendid Mugello countryside offers.
