The estate sits on 15 acres of rolling countryside in Montefiridolfi, maintaining its pastoral character while functioning as a full-service hotel and wedding venue. Today it operates as a four-star property that honors its Renaissance roots through period details, authentic materials, and grounds that reflect centuries of Tuscan agricultural tradition.
