The surrounding landscape is one of the most evocative in the valley, distinguished by the presence of the so-called crags, dramatic rocky erosions formed following the drying up of a large ancient lake that once covered the Arno valley, and which many believe to be portrayed in the backgrounds of paintings by Leonardo da Vinci. These formations offer enchanting scenery particularly at sunset, when shadows play across the steep walls and furrows of the terrain.
The property is accessed via the Setteponti road, the ancient route linking Arezzo and Vallombrosa, along which numerous CAI hiking and mountain biking routes depart, allowing guests to explore the entire area of the crags on foot or by bike.

A gazebo positioned next to the cottage provides a shaded and furnished outdoor dining area, complete with table and chairs, a barbecue, and a wood oven — the perfect setting for long summer dinners under a sky filled with stars, accompanied by the scent of burning wood and the sound of crickets. The exclusive wellness area is undoubtedly one of the most distinctive features of the property. The non-heated rectangular swimming pool, built in 2020, measures 8 by 6 metres with a depth ranging from 10 centimetres to 1.5 metres, and is equipped with night lighting.
