You will look, listed, learn and in the end you will almost certainly find the precious tuberous, a moment of great excitement and amusement.

€ 35 per person

At the end there is the possibility to buy the truffles at the market price.

THE NEW POOL

 6 m x 12 m - deep from  1,20 m to 1,50 m

ELISA'S BREAKFAST

Having breakfast in Molinello means eating fresh food or food prepared by Elisa (bread and cakes are cooked by us using biological flours coming from farms like Crete, Il Pereto, Sporeta, biological eggs of our hens, chicken of Valdarno – Slow Food protection) and from Livorno. We make biological jams; honey comes from biological farms in Asciano and Rapolano; we also produce biological fresh fruit or we buy it in near farms; juices come from the biodynamic farm Terra d’Arcoiris; cold cuts are biological, coming from animals in the wild; cheese comes from local farms, like Spereta, Vergelle and La Fonte. They are almost always biological, with raw milk, and cornflakes, granola, juices, yogurts, tea, herb teas and milk, too, are biological.
It takes a little bit of time in order to prepare this kind of breakfast, therefore it is necessary to reserve it at the booking time or cancel it two days in advance and it cannot be prepared for more than 8 persons.
€ 9,50 each person per day
