Far from the madding crowd, on the hills of magical Montecatini is Podere Giornolungo, an old ruin dating back to the beginning of the 19th century. During the renovations the owners used natural and antique materials, typical of the culture of Tuscany. The external structure is composed of two main bodies of different heights, with the two fronts facing each other. The lower part is characterized by open-face walls (where materials from a 16th century villa have been used), and alternating small and large windows; the other part is characterized by walls of a uniform plain yellow, on which a small wrought iron balcony and doors and windows framed in sandstone stand out. At first glance they would seem to be two separate bodies but actually they are joined together internally. The area in front of the house offers a breathtaking view over all the countryside with Montecatini and other small towns like come Cozzile, Buggiano, Montecarlo, Ponte Buggianese, Uzzano, Pieve a Nievole, charming places to visit where one can taste the typical products of Tuscany.
