Our apartments certainly have unusual names which celebrate a holiday with conciliatory rythms in the countryside, due to childhood memories of the long winter evenings pleasantly spent reading the Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio. These names evoke an ancient language and have been in disuse for years, but they are familiar to those who live in the home of this fourteenth-century writer. The rooms are named: Fortunale, Connubio, Pertugio, Serafico…

The rooms are spacious and very bright, because furnished with natural wood furniture, comfortable sofas, kitchen with electric hobs, microwave ovens and all have a private space and are arranged in a way that ensures privacy thanks to the independent access.
