La Macina Farmhouse invites outdoor living: you are fabulously well set up with a poolside terrace for drinks and unforgettable evenings with your friends while enjoying the view of the town at your feet, or for creating a wonderful atmosphere in the evenings, sunset on cue and maybe some bruschetta and a glass of Chianti in hand.
