Le Torre is an agriturismo above Fornoli. It looks wonderful in its lofty position and features in many photos.
There is accommodation at Le Torre…and a restaurant. We visited in late summer, just before the weather turned cool. There is a lovely terrace outside and great views.
The star of the show here is the antipasti. Be careful not to eat too much, as we did.
You need to leave room for the next course. The photos are a bit blurry, the light was fading.
I can’t show you dessert. We could not manage another course.
i look forward to a cosy dinner inside during winter.
Love it!
It is a great spot.
No shortage of those in Italy. 🙂
It looks great.
Is it walking distance from Ponte a Serraglio?
Yes, it is, but there is a steep walk up. There is a sign on the right going towards Fornoli. It is just before the stadium.
It is a beautiful, imposing building, which dates back to the 17th Century. At the end of the 19th Century it was purchased by the two sisters of a former USA president, who lived there for many years.

After their death, came a long period of decadence until it was purchased and restored.
It could be a good example of what could be done with similar places such as Villa Fiorela.
Thank you for the information. You can see the remains of the towers that gave the place its name behind the house
We never did manage to visit Le Torre. On the list for our next visit!
We have a date!
