Pieve di Caminino Roccastrada

Pieve di Caminino is a small medieval hamlet, near to Montemassi in Tuscany's Roccastrada territory, and just a 30 minute drive away from the Tuscan coast. The hamlet is comprised of a cluster of small cottages, a farmhouse and the proprietor's own residence, and the 11th century church, or "pieve" built on Paleo-Christian ruins. The impressive main nave of the church, between Romanesque columns and arches, now provides a truly unique space where to hold meetings and seminars.

Pieve di Caminino has six suites and an apartment of varying dimensions for 2 to 5 people. All have a comfortable living room, one or two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom with shower or bathtub. Independent heating and stone fireplaces make the cottages the perfect holiday accommodation way beyond the summer season.

The apartment is beautifully appointed with pieces of antique furniture and period paintings from the owner's private collection. Terraces and private garden areas overlook enchanting Tuscan scenery. The swimming pool has a stunning view of nearby Montemassi castle.

The Pieve di Caminino estate extends over some 500 hectares of century old olive trees, vineyards and Mediterranean scrub and woodland. The fruit of the extensive olive grove is used to obtain the Pieve di Caminino cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. The oil has been made by members of the Marucchi-Locateli family since 1873, when they first came into ownership of the property.
