The GIARDINI family - who is behind "Podere Calvaiola"
comes from the city of Milan where many work interests still remain.
Pietro has a main job related to the fashion field but becoming a lover of the quiet life in Calvaiola. You will always find him to welcome you with a beautiful smile and entertain you every now and then with the stories of his adventures on a sailing boat.
Barbara, originally from Sardinia, takes care of public entertainment events for the neighboring municipality in the morning. On behalf of Podere Calvaiola she takes care of social profiles, and organizes weddings..
You will see little Sofia fleeing to the pool she loves or looking for some little guest to make friends with. In the summer, you can also find the other members of the family: Niccolò piccolo, Nicolò grande, Mario and Sabrina.
The love for art and design can be seen in the modern art sculptures in our garden, in the original furniture where classic furniture is combined with modern objects, design, paintings and modern sculptures.
The sculpture in the garden by Alfonso Bonavita, the sense of freedom and peace of the great man who soars in flight, is a bit of the symbol of the farm, as a “place of absolute peace”.
Our Labrador Chanel and the adorable kitten Love will brighten your stay in Calvaiola.
They say: “A place where peace, silence, breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside reign … a place to regenerate …. a farm where the difference is the homeowners who love travel, cultural diversity, people, they will make you feel at home “.
The HISTORY
The farmhouse was built in 1750 for 3 families who had the task of managing the crops of the surrounding land.
It rises among Etruscan ruins, in fact, the surrounding countryside was part of the state of the Etruscans of Volterra and from 1700 of the Barons of Casaglia. It is inside its wood that in 1932 a tomb dating back to a powerful Etruscan family was found. This tomb is now located in the archaeological museum of Cecina. For this reason, today, part of the surrounding forest is bound by cultural heritage.
After World War II, the house remained “uninhabited” until it was purchased in 2008 by the Giardini family and was conservatively restored to maintain the authenticity of the structure and the materials used.
This ancient farm with its 360 degree view of the Tuscan countryside offers the possibility of exclusive rental for ceremonies and events or even just the possibility of staying overnight.
This farm offers a variety of 6 apartments combined with a relaxing swimming pool and pleasant views over the Tuscan hills. The 100 hectares of cultivated land create a private and peaceful atmosphere. Podere Calvaiola is the perfect place to relax and create memories among the surrounding beauties.
