The now days begimimg story : When Francesco and Monia Micci in 1999 they first saw the farm and old abandoned farmhouse for 40 years following the departure of the last inhabitants in the 60s, they were struck not only by the beautiful location, charm and energy of the place which combined the austerity of stone structures with the plasticity of a pristine natural environment in a harmony of colors, smells and sounds that seem to repeat the wind rustling through the olive groves to the voices of Pentini and their men.
The voices of Pentini and their farmers, their families, tears and joys of their young that we wanted to honor putting in every room photos are replaced by the new course of Micci family, the tears and the joys of Aurora and Alexander, who continue to give life to this timeless place.
