In the kitchen a large stone table and fireplace add to the rural atmosphere of times gone by.
The external area behind the house overlooks the countryside and is reached along a little road marked by two rows of cypress trees, running through the corn fields and vineyards . Through a large gate dominated by two terracotta lions is an internal courtyard with a stone table,in the shade of two large Mediterranean pine trees, here you will also find the 8x5 Mts swimming-pool (partly above ground).
