L’Ultimo Mulino, a wonderful 4star hotel in Chianti area (Gaiole in Chianti,
Greve in Chianti, Radda in Chianti, Castellina in Chianti, ecc.) offers its guests
peace and wellness through the enchanting beauty of its architectonical details
and the surrounding natural scenery. In the surroundings of Vistarenni you can
get to the hotel crossing a little XV century bridge and you find yourself in
the atmosphere of Tuscan farmhouses, once owned by the country house of Villa
Vistarenni; something both town and rural which charms and enchants, done in order
to satisfy every desire.
Inside the hotel it’s still possible to see a lot of ancient details, which testify
the old function of this building, when millers used to grind the grain. The footways
and the corridors which leads to the rooms have been obtained over the deep mill-race,
where run the water, thanks to which the big wooden wheel revolved. Of this wheel,
only the central pivot has lasted till nowadays. Characteristic and typical Tuscan
is the central lounge, with its thirteen arches, all of them in stone and fired
bricks. In this wonderful and large lounge, which welcomes Ultimo Mulino’s guests,
is served the rich Buffet breakfast. In the lounge you can find also a precious
piano and the old wood-fired oven.
L’Ultimo Mulino feeds itself on these essences, it preserves and enhances them
in a suggestive and unique setting. It is the only water-mill where water came
from the high, its water tank is now the wonderful pool, sorrounded by trees and
genistas, between them you can relax and have a dip. At your arrival you will
be welcomed in a large ivy-covered patio surrounded by roses, where once were
unloaded the goods and now is a delicious location to enjoy breakfast, lunch and
dinner or an nice appetizer after a day immersed in Chianti’s culture.
