Al Volo del Nibbio - Beautifully Restored Farmhouse
Farmhouse with 7 Bedrooms, Sleeps 14, Garden, Swimming Pool
Our Agriturismo Al Volo del Nibbio is an ancient farmhouse set in 85 private hectares of the Tuscan Apennines, near the attractivetown of Marradi. The owner, an architect, lives in the adjoining hunter’s lodge and personally supervised the farmhouse’s recent restoration, using traditional materials to preserve the original style while installing every modern comfort in two apartments and a communal relaxion area, as well as in the more secluded Casetta (detached house). There is a swimming pool with panoramic views from the 700 mt altitude, a shaded loggia area and tended lawns.

A holiday or weekend break at Al Volo del Nibbio can be just lazy, totally relaxing experience in the peace of an unspoiled landscape. Adventurous guests will appreciate the trekking, cycling and horse-riding trails that reach as far as Gamogna Hermitage, Acquacheta, Trebbana, Passo della Colla and even to Vallombrosa and the Tuscan Maremma. Within 8km are a tennis club and a riding school. Al Volo del Nibbio is 4 km from the nearest town, where there is a supermarket, and 6 km from Marradi which offers a large variety of shops and services.
Marradi hasa railway station and frequent trains to Florence and other notable Tuscan towns. Also to Faenza (home of faence pottery, and just 30 km away) and on to Ravenna. In Marradi you will find typical “Tosco-Emiliani” restaurants blending two of Italy’s most important gastronomic traditions to create characteristic dishes. We have links with one of the best of these restaurants, where you can savour a local menu for about 13 Euros.
We advise you not to miss three thematic routes from del Nibbio. One traces the Medicis; another follows the Mugello painters (Giotto, Cimabue and Beato Angelico); and the third heads towards Brisighella, Faenza and other medival and Renaissance centres on the way to Ravenna, home of wonderful mosaics.
