A day in Mugello, the way we like it.
Today we take you to the heart of our favorite experiences to enjoy your stay in the right way: outdoors and without haste.
When you wake up, let yourself be greeted by the scent of freshly baked croissants and enojoy your breakfast. The sun is rising lazily, in the park of the estate everything is resting peacefully, even the dogs are dozing on the lawn. It is the best time to get on your mountain bike and discover the wonders that surround us, such as the Medici castles and the medieval village of Scarperia, with its stone architecture and famous cutlery shops.
The sun is high in the sky, it's almost time for lunch. After your visit to Scarperia, taste some local specialties such as potato tortelli, accompanied by a good glass of Chianti from the Florentine hills, in one of our favorite restaurants.
It's time to set off again and continue the bike tour. Visit Lake Bilancino, about twenty minutes from our estate. On its equipped beaches you can rest in the sun or glide across the emerald waters in a kayak. Between suggestive inlets and the naturalistic Oasis of Gabbianello, the nature of Mugello is revealed here in all its beauty.
"And then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that's not enough, what more can I want?"
(Vincent van Gogh)
It's almost time to go back. The sun now fills the sky with its reddish reflections: on the way back, stop at one of our favorite wineries for a refreshing aperitif accompanied by a platter of local cold cuts and cheese.
