At the end of a winding 1,5 km unmade road lined with heather, corbezzoli (strawberry trees) and oaks in the lovely countryside of the Crete Senesi is the Aia Vecchia di Montalceto farm, divided onto five apartments that have been made out of the careful restoration of Montalceto Estate which once upon a time was a famed thermal spa.
Its waters were well known already in the 15th Century for curing arthritis and rheumatism.

On the ground floor of the main house there are a laundry, and the communal rooms equipped with stereo, satellite TV, Dvd player, table tennis, a small library, a piano and a well equipped kitchen.
