The agritourism "L'Antica Fornace” (ancient brick-kiln) is located in the heart of Tuscany, betwe en Volterra and San Gimignano, a few hundred metres from the village of Cedri. It is immersed in the lush setting of the Tuscan hills, situated within the 39 hectares of the farm "La Fornace", surrounded by over 700 olive trees and 3000 metres of vineyard. The Building is found in a splendid panoramic position, at the highest point of the entire farm. The structure is completely renovated in the traditional Tuscan style both in terms of decoration and finishings with aged terracotta "mezzane" and wooden rafters.

From the spacious terrace you can observe unforgettable sunsets in complete relaxation, perhaps reading a book or sipping a glass of excellent Tuscan Wine. Despite the distance, it is even possible to see as far as the sea on clear days.

A few metres from the farm, the restaurant "Il Gelso" (Open Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening) offers breakfasts on a daily basis. It is possible to taste our own-produced oil, wine e traditional products.
