The doors of the living room open onto a covered patio furnished with table and chairs and overlooking the garden and vineyards beyond. There is a barbeque in the grounds for guests use.

La Fattoria ?The Plateau Estate? composed of the owner?s manor house, with its own chapel, two traditional Tuscan farmhouses which have been restored to offer very comfortable apartments, and a panoramic swimming pool.
