Plus I can email you our Guide Our village 'Stanco' is 2.5 kms south of the centre of Grizzana, home to Giorgio Morandi's summer Painting studio. It is set in the foothills of the Apennine Mountains at an altitude of 600m, facing south, with a view of Montovolo, then Tuscany beyond. We are immersed in nature and wildlife, such as deer, badgers and wild boar, positioned next to the regional historic park of Montesole, close to the magical castle of 'Rocchetta Mattei', the national park of Lake Brasimone and Lake Suviana and along the trek routes of 'The Etruscan Way' and The Wool and Silk Way'. An ideal place for rambling, walking, excursions, & horse riding. Also cycling for the very fit with professional bicycles. Arriving by car, we are 12 minutes away from the exit 'Rioveggio' on the A1 motorway, 'PANORAMICO' branch. Do not take the new 'DIRETTISSIMO' branch which bypasses us. We are 6 minutes away from the Train station of 'Grizzana' also in the Setta valley. Here there is free parking so it's easy to visit Florence and Bologna by train. Very few daily buses between this station and Stanco and no taxis. Our Eolo wifi is reliable but speed is slower than in a city
