SWIMMINGPOOL

 

The swimming pool is free for the guests of La Pineta, and is open from May to October. It has paved spaces with beach umbrellas, deck chairs, green meadows with a gazebo for reading. The tub is 12 x 6 meters and does not have high water areas, to facilitate the permanence to the less experienced and for children.  The purification is made by a saline system with no chlorine, respecting nature.  A robot is always working for the continuous cleaning of the bottom. Inside the tub hydromassage nozzles are located. The pool is not guarded, and therefore is forbidden to leave children unattended. It is also forbidden to dive (the depth of the basin is 1.40 m).  Access to the pool is allowed only during daylight hours.

FOOD

The farm is equipped with two large dining rooms for breakfast, dinner and reading.  Each guest will find its own reserved table to enjoy the necessary intimacy.  In summer you can have breakfast and dinner outdoors, at the Desco of Pergola (service only for guests), where you can hold a single large table to get together to talk in company.

The kitchen of the Pineta is simple and typical, with traditional Tuscan specialties accompanied by a little bit of creativity.

The menu, prepared by the owners, is fixed, but varies every day.  The servings are abundant and the dishes well prepared.  The majority of the ingredients are organic products produced by our farm (salads, wild herbs, vegetables, fruits, olive oil, organic wine, aromatic vinegars).  The products not produced by us are bought from other local farms.

We start with delicious appetizers, then we pass to the first succulent dishes (homemade pasta, country soups), followed by meat or vegetables (white meat, casseroles, pork, omelettes), side dishes of fresh or baked vegetables, delicious homemade cakes and seasonal fruits.

During the meal we will be happy to let you taste the wines we produce.  Here are some of our specialties: crostini, ricotta pie, panzanella, cake chickpeas, ribollita, testaroli pesto, spelled soup, pork with rosemary, chicken with balsamic vinegar, stuffed turkey, orange cakes, fig tarts, sweet chestnut pie, cantuccini and vin santo, bitters and homemade liqueurs.  The evening meal is served at 20 p.m., under a pergola outdoors.
