Since the time of the Etruscans, the Borgo Hamlet has been an important center for commerce, trade, craft and agriculture. Today, The Artimino Castle maintains most of its Medieval character - evident by the concentric planimetry, the old walls still standing, the huge entrance gate surmounted by the old crenellated tower.
Within the Borgo, the Enoteca "Cantina del Redi," with it's panoramic terrace, offers an 'al fresco' dining experience of traditional Tuscan cuisine, and the "Bacco Goloso" shop sells products, wines and olive oils from the on site Farm.
Within the Borgo, some of the old buildings have been converted into beautiful apartments, with unique and antique features, these wonderful apartments offer us a reminder of the simple pleasures of a life lived slowly so many centuries ago. Completely restored, the apartments feature all the modern conveniences and include kitchenette, SAT/TV, Internet, all modern necessities. There is also a swimming pool and mountain bikes within the complex and guests are welcome to use all the facilities of the Hotel Paggeria Medicea.
