The Property
Luxury Bed and Breakfast in Tuscany
Mulino dell'Opera, Tuscany, Italy offers truly unique bed and breakfast accommodation in a watermill built in 1705. Situated in the Valfegana with its craggy cliffs and hanging acacia, a perfect setting for your wedding with about an acre of riverside garden and a further hillside of woodland, guests can enjoy a peaceful, tranquil setting, where, on warm summer evenings the full Tuscan experience can be enjoyed.
Accommodation is in three double bedrooms all with private bathrooms.

There's a magic to this place - its host! Peter Pan played by Peter O'Toole..
