Description from owner
Description
Perfect as a tranquil getaway for small groups or for an extended family, the accommodation is arranged on 2 levels which you can use together or independently - each level having own entrances and shaded portico/pergola.
You can rent the whole molino, or for a more economical rate you can rent just the upper portico level alone (3 bedrooms) which is ideal for couples and has beds for up to 7 people.
Exclusive use assured: we only rent to one group at a time.
Al fresco dining - deck and portico with bread oven, overlooking waterfall. Gentle clear stream with smooth rock pools for bathing.
An ancient mill house, renovated in 1990, making a welcoming home while keeping its traditional chestnut beams, terracotta floors and ceilings.
Free Wi-Fi is available in the house.
Wood burning stoves in living areas, and a supply of firewood in the wood store
The terrain is fantastic for cyclists as well as for walking - and a local service is available for airport transfers, for rental of excellent bikes, for repairs and equipment, guided walks and rides: see www. hikeandbikeitaly. c o m. They can tailor a personalised custom service to individual needs - including organisation, local guides and transfers.
As for the house interior:
Upper (Portico) Level:
* Living room, with windows opening to the view and sound of the little waterfall below. In this spacious room is a large dining table seating 8 comfortably, a wood burning stove, and a lounge area including sofa bed.
Games, guitar, speaker, CD player, and books provided.

Outside:
Upper (portico) level: portico with bread oven, table and chairs. Sundeck shaded by trees, parasol and supplied with loungers. Overlooks wooded trail, and path to rockpools.
Stream runs alongside, having rockpools suitable for bathing, and waterfall.
Lower (pergola) level has paved pergola with table and chairs outside kitchen.
An adventurous and absorbing location for children, with stream, rockpools, hilly terrain, and abundant fauna and flora. However, please note that younger children will need supervision due to steep drops.
A friendly, tranquil rural location - cypresses and sunflowers, vineyards and olive groves. Beautiful walks, great views - just by walking up the hill from the house.
The mill is located on a quiet access road which leads up the hill to a handful of farm properties.
Located where the foothills of Alpe de la Luna meet the Upper Tiber Valley, it's a perfect base for walking, painting or cycling, and for enjoying the traditional life and cuisine of historic cities and hill towns. Local farm produce is abundant, and you can walk from molino to shops and bars in San Giustino, and to restaurants there or in the next valley or hill. The walled medieval town of Sansepolcro is 5km by road.
Further details
Welcome pack provided on arrival.
English speaking agents in nearby town look after the property and can be contacted if required.
Very large outdoor swimming pool in park in Sansepolcro, open summer months.(10 mins drive). Indoor pool in sports centre in San Giustino (5 mins drive)
The upper Portico unit can be rented alone, or simultaneously with lower Pergola floor: they can be connected by the internal stair.
Exclusive use assured - we do not rent to separate groups simultaneously.
Both floors have original small level changes of 3 steps each between kitchen and living areas. The molino is set into a hillside. We have stayed with very small children and elderly grandparents, but small children will require supervision, and assistance may be required for those with mobility problems.
