A truly Tuscan lifestyle experience in an authentic village with all modern conveniences.
Location and Surrounding Area. Tenuta delle More is a large country estate covering 1000 hectares and houses a cluster of several superbly renovated farmhouses, suites and apartments. The property was originally a convent from the 1600s and then later converted into a series of farmhouses. In addition to offering guests a swimming pool, theatre, restaurant and library, Tenuta delle More is famous for its DOP quality olive oil, vinsanto wine and zolfini beans as well as other products from the organic vegetable garden.
Tenuta delle More is situated in the Valdarno, one of Tuscany's most beautiful and historically important areas. The surrounding countryside makes for superb walking and the area offers much in the way of outdoor activities; from horse riding to mountain biking and trekking. The area not only produces outstanding olive but is an important stop for wine lovers. Montepulciano is about an hour's drive from Tenuta delle More and is known not only for being a stunning, hilltop Renaissance town but also for the quality of its fine wines. The Cantucci family, for example, has been creating fine wines since the 1700s and is considered one of the founding fathers of the exceptional red wine, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Another sought-after red wine, the Brunello di Montalcino, has been produced in the hills around Montalcino since the early 14th century.
In fact, the whole area is steeped in history with unchanged, medieval towns perched on hillsides. Examples include the unforgettable San Gimignano with its skyline of high medieval towers and the delightful town of Suvereto which are both little more than an hour's drive away.
Florence is only about 40 km away and within easy driving distance for a day out soaking up the culture in one of Italy's most romantic cities.
Tenuta delle More is about 60 km from Florence international airport and 130 km from Perugia international airport.
