The Amadriade Agriturismo is located on a hilltop surrounded by woods just outside the village of Trequanda, in the heart of Tuscany.The name “Amadriade” derives from the Greek word HAMADRYAS-ADOS: HAMA=together; DRYAS=oak.
The Agriturismo gets is name by the surrounding wood of oak trees, a species which found fertile land and was able grow and spread without the help of man.
From its enchanting position, isolated and peaceful, it is possible to admire the beautiful panorama of the Valdichiana and enjoy a relaxing vacation far from the stress of everyday life and the frenetic city.
